Luxury Private Tour Holidays

There is no question too small. Start planning your dream trip by talking to our Destination Specialists

Luxury tour holidays allow you to really get to know a place, discovering hidden locations and gaining real insights into a country. Expert local guides lead you through famous sites and secret spots, giving you the wisdom of their first-hand knowledge. An opportunity to not only explore the farthest corners of the world, but to really get to know them.

One of the things we love most about tour holidays is the freedom and flexibility they provide. No two individuals are the same; as no two trips should be. Add extra activities, or relax for longer at a favourite location. Likewise, you can roam with a group of like-minded travellers and share company and laughter as you journey through some of the world’s most beautiful sites.

Delve Deeper on Our Luxury Escorted Tours and Holidays

Whether you want to explore Asia’s dynamic cultures, traverse Africa’s wild plains or wander through the glamorous cities of the USA, we’ll help you plan the perfect itinerary.

Travel through the Far East discovering incredibly rich cultures and unique landscapes – on our India Golden Triangle Tour , or Sri Lanka Cultural Kandy & Tea Tour. Historical intrigue, National Parks and iconic cities are bountiful on the New York to Hollywood Tour – where highlights include the Niagara falls, the White House and the bright lights of Las Vegas.

For an African adventure, enjoy a thrilling safari in Etosha National Park, tracking the famous Big Five in their natural habitat, with the Explore Namibia safari. Alternatively, get up-close to some of Africa’s most exotic wildlife on the Grand Tour of Botswana luxury tour safari.

Where would you like to tour?

A country of contrast and diversity, the USA covers a vast stretch of land, with each state and city having its own distinct culture. Our tour holidays enable you to experience all of this, while discovering small towns, hidden corners in National Parks and routes off-the-beaten-track. Take in the glitz of Los Angeles; wonder at the monumental Niagara falls; savour the aromas of succulent Texas steaks; dip your toes into the coast off California.

This lively, bustling corner of the world introduces you to some incredibly rich cultures, from the mesmerising geisha of Japan to the tranquil monks of Tibet. Combine the world’s largest cities with sprawling stretches of white sand; wander the Great Wall of China and sail through breathtaking Ha Long Bay; explore the lush rainforests of Malaysia and roam quiet temples and countryside villages in Sri Lanka. For the food enthusiasts, our Far East luxury tours will have you sampling the most sumptuous cuisine, from fresh seafood to spicy noodle broths.

Africa’s wild landscapes, exotic creatures and vibrant cultures are just waiting to be discovered – and enjoyed – on a luxury tour. Rove some of the world’s most diverse and spectacular National Parks, from the banks of the life-giving Chobe River to the wide open plains of the Maasai Mara. Trek along the golden sand dunes of Namibia; spot the Big Five on a safari in Kruger National Park; visit Africa’s thriving cosmopolitan cities and untouched beaches.

South America

South America’s landscapes remain relatively untouched, with vast stretches of the Amazon still unexplored. With bustling cities, ancient ruins and abundant natural wonders, South America provides the ultimate setting for an epic tour. Breathe in the heady Amazon rainforest; dance through the Rio de Janeiro carnival; witness the crashing Iguazu Falls; take in one of the seven wonders of the world at Machu Picchu. Pair this with friendly locals, delicious cuisine and the chance to relax on a paradisal beach, and you’ve got the trip of a lifetime.

Indian Subcontinent

India is well-known for its diverse and captivating cultures, magnificent architecture, fascinating history and beautifully chaotic cities. A true delight for the senses, you’ll sample deliciously authentic Indian food, get lost in glittering, labyrinth markets and witness colorful traditional festivals. To really understand India – its diversity and complexity – you have to visit yourself. Roam India’s frenetic cities and remote villages, and visit relatively undiscovered countries like Bhutan, Nepal and Tibet on one of our luxury tour holidays.

Sri Lanka is a country of Asian elephants and luscious rainforests, peaceful temples and stretching green paddy-fields. Tour a tea plantation, learning how this culinary staple is grown, harvested and produced; explore the depths of the Indian Ocean on a diving trip; visit an Elephant Orphanage to learn about the protection of these magnificent animals. End your trip with your toes in the white-sands of one of Sri Lanka’s pristine beaches, perhaps learning how to ride the waves in a surf lesson.

Australasia

Our Australasia luxury tours have something for everyone, from the dreamy beaches of Fiji to the rugged mountains of New Zealand and the iconic red sands of Australia’s outback. Explore the world’s most beautiful and remote locations. Meet kangaroos and kiwi birds; learn about Maori culture; lay back on the world’s largest sand island; spend your days working on a cattle ranch or hiking through impressive glaciers. The possibilities are endless.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an luxury tour.

Luxury tour holidays take you between different destinations, giving you in depth insights into sights and attractions along the way. They usually include your accommodation, some meals, tours of specific attractions and transport between each of the locations. Our planned itineraries can be enjoyed in a group or solo, they can be booked off the shelf, or you can speak to one of our experts who will help you create your own itinerary. You can also combine two or more of our luxury tour holidays, whether you want to spend a week or a month seeing the many sights, including world heritage sites, in the 60 destinations we offer.

Do I have to stick to the exact itinerary?

No. Speak to one of our expert Destination Specialists and they can help you decide whether you’d like to book one of our ready-made luxury tour itineraries or create your own. Once you have planned and booked your tour, you will also have some freedom. You will need to arrive at your arranged accommodation in time for the evenings, but where you travel during the day and how long you stop for will depend on your group. If you’re travelling solo each day can be up to you, while those travelling on group tours are often given a choice of activities or excursions for the day.

Tailor-made Private Tours of USA

Have you ever considered a private, luxury road trip in the US? This may be your own backyard, but drawing up a plan to explore our vast country in style can be challenging, especially when you want to get off the beaten path. The good news is our experts at Enchanting Travels bring in-depth, first-hand knowledge to create well-planned luxury breaks and tailor-made road trips capturing the best of the US, particularly its magnificent natural wonders.  If you’re dreaming about escaping into the wild and experiencing a carefree getaway, leave the arrangements and logistics to us.

Experience the United States’ great wild places—you’ve got 58 ecologically and culturally diverse national parks to choose from. At every park we offer an array of outdoor adventures, privately guided hikes, and opportunities for wildlife spotting.  Private boating trips, glamping in tents under starry skies, and secluded luxury hotel accommodations  are just a few of the many ways you can experience the USA with the expertise and security of Enchanting Travels.  

Each American city has its own unique allure too, and many are gateways to national parks.  Buzzing San Francisco can lead you to famous Yosemite with its dizzying waterfalls and giant sequoia groves. On the West Coast hit the open road on California’s famous Pacific Coast Highway to experience the glory of Big Sur with stops at iconic destinations including Pfeiffer Big Sur State Park, McWay Falls and wildlife viewing in Monterey. Further north, past gorgeous redwood forests, take a detour to enjoy exclusive wine tasting tours in the Napa and Sonoma valleys.

Salt Lake City opens doors to Arches and Zion National Parks with their stunning sandstone landscapes. Add on luxury accommodation in remote hideaways to make this a dream Southwest getaway.

From the sunny city of Denver, make your way to Rocky Mountain National Park for breathtaking vistas from the Continental Divide and incredible outdoor adventures in the heart of the Rockies.

A private experience with Enchanting Travels means your itinerary is customized to highlight the things that bring you joy.  If you’re looking for larger-than-life landscapes, the all-American classic Yellowstone National Park is spread across three states and packed with wildlife. If you’d like some history lessons with your sweeping vistas, Mesa Verde National Park in southwest Colorado has fascinating cliff dwellings and petroglyphs. Looking to get your heart racing? Hike deep into the Grand Canyon or take a helicopter flight over its steep gorges.

We’ll tailor-make your itinerary so you can do more than go on a road trip in the USA. We’ll ensure you experience the best of our nation’s natural gems while staying in luxury accommodations and enjoying the diverse landscapes and cultures of our country.

The sprawling, mind-boggling metropolis of Russian Moscow has long been one of the theatrical stages on which the great dramas of Europe and Asia have been played out in grand style. Burned by Napoleon in 1812, immortalised by Tolstoy, utilised by the Bolsheviks and championed as a bastion of heroic defiance by the post-war communists, it’s almost hard to believe just how defining the historical events that found their home on Moscow’s streets have been. Moscow tour guides will easily be able to mark the major must-see landmarks on the map, from the onion-domed orthodox Saint Basil's Cathedral, to the political powerhouse of Red Square just next door, while others will be quick to recommend a ride on Moscow’s famous subterranean metro system, or a visit to the UNESCO-attested Novodevichy Convent on the city’s southern side. But Moscow is a city also in the throes of a cultural wrangling between the old and the new. Creative energies abound here: Boho bars and pumping super clubs now occupy the iconic mega structures of the old USSR; high-fashion outlets, trendy shopping malls and luxurious residential districts stand as testimony to a city that’s now the undisputed playground of the world’s super-rich, while sprawling modern art museums dominate the cultural offering of the downtown districts north of the Moskva River.

Vodka Museum Tour with transport (excursion only)

Lena, our guide in Moscow was excellent. She was very knowledgable and could answer any question we had for her. We liked that she could pick up on our interests and take us places we might not have thought of to go. When we realized that one of the places we had chosen to see would probably not be that interesting to us, she was able to arrange entry to the Diamond Fund and the Armoury for us. Riding the Metro with Lena was a real adventure and a lot of fun. In Saint Petersburg we found Anna well versed in the history of the Tsars and in the Hermitage collection. Arkady in Veliky Novgorod was a very good guide and answered all of our questions with ease. Novgorod was perhaps a long way to go for a day trip, but we did enjoy it. Vasily was a great driver to have and kept us safe with good humour and skill. We enjoyed ourselves so much, my daughter says she is already planning to return. We would both have no hesistation to recommend ExpresstoRussia to anyone we know.

Just wanted to let you know that My grandson Bruno and I couldn´t have been more pleased with our week in Moscow (6/15 - 6/21). We were absolutely enchanted with the whole experience, including getting lost a couple of times in the Metro during our free time. Although both our guides (both Eleanas) were excellent, I would particularly commend the first one (she took us to the Tatiakov, the KGB tour, and to that beautiful cemetery where so many great Russian artists, authors, composers, musicians, militarists, and politicians are buried). Her knowledge is encyclopedic; and her understanding of today´s Russia as a product of its past was, for us, truly enlightening. I will be taking another tour in Russia, with my wife, within the next two or three years. I will be in touch with you when the time comes. Meanwhile, I will refer you to other potential visitors to Russia as I meet them.

Moscow, a City Like No Other

Moscow is Russia’s largest city with a population of between 12 and 13 million. It is also Europe’s largest city and when you visit Moscow, you can feel it. The layout and architecture of the city is eclectic, ranging from crooked, ancient streets and alleyways to wide, bustling boulevards, from medieval churches to Stalin skyscrapers and to modern, glass buildings towering over everything and of course in the center of it all is the Kremlin and the magnificent Red Square. Moscow is also home to a fantastic, efficient and very beautiful metro system – each station having its own special design. In fact, Express to Russia’s Moscow metro tours and excursions are some of our most popular attractions that we offer. On our Moscow tours, you will see this and more.

Moscow Tours centering on Russian History

Moscow has a long and interesting history and has been the capital of Russia in many of its different iterations – capital of the Grand Duchy of Moscow , the Russian Empire and of course the Soviet Union (who could ever forget the Soviet Union?). Moscow, was founded in the 12th century by Prince Yuri Dolgaruki (Yuri of the long arms – he really did have long arms!). From that time on, it was home to the Russian Tsars until Peter the Great moved the capital to St. Petersburg in 1703. The city has survived invasions and sieges from the Mongols, the Tartars, the Poles, Lithuanians and Napoleon but has always persevered. Our Moscow tours will enlighten you on this great history and give you insights into Muscovites and their unique culture. Our Moscow tours show you what the city is like today but also brings to life the past. Moscow never seems to sleep and is bursting with energy. A Moscow tour with Express to Russia is truly the best way of getting to know Russia’s largest and most vibrant city.

Frequently Asked Questions From Our Travelers

What is the best time to visit moscow.

Any time of year is fine depending on what you plan to do. Summertime is pleasantly warm, ideal for exploring the city and its vibrant atmosphere, but Moscow will be much busier and accommodation is more expensive. Winter can be quite cold but beautiful nonetheless, and this is unproblematic if you intend to spend most of your trip in museums and galleries. There are also various festivals and events organised throughout the year. For more information about the best time to visit, read our guide

How many days are enough in Moscow?

If you plan your itinerary strategically and aren’t averse to a packed schedule, you can cover Moscow’s main sights over a long weekend. Most popular attractions are in the city centre, and the Moscow Metro allows you to cover much ground in a small amount of time. Ensure that your accommodation is fairly central and book tickets in advance, so that you can make the most of your days. For an informative and well-organised day out, check out our Moscow day tours with options to suit all interests.

Do they speak English in Moscow?

As Russia’s capital city, tourists are well accommodated in Moscow. There should be English-speaking staff in restaurants, bars, hotels, shops and attractions in tourist hotspots, and there are also English-speaking tourist police. Transport services have English translations on their maps and English announcements via intercom; alternatively, order taxis from the Yandex Taxi app (Russian Uber), though it’s unlikely that your taxi driver will speak English. If you get stuck and cannot communicate, it’s fine to use Google Translate.

Is it safe to travel to Moscow?

It is no less safe to travel to Moscow than to any European city if you exercise common sense and look after your belongings. As with every city some regions can be more unsavoury than others, but no tourist attractions are located there. The traffic in Moscow is notorious, so exercise caution when crossing roads. Do not take unlicensed taxis; book in advance or take public transport, which is widespread and perfectly safe. If you encounter any problems, look for the special tourist police who can help you. For more information, read our guide about staying safe in Russia .

Ask us to arrange a visit to one of British Columbia's most unique treasures - the Great Bear Rainforest. Stay in remote yet luxurious accommodations and witness eagles, grizzly bears, sea otters, dolphins, whales, wolves, and more in the wild.

Add an Alaska Cruise

Ask us to pair you up with your style of cruise and discover Alaska's spectacular Inside Passage.

Bring your bubble

Exploring with friends and family is the best way to create lasting memories and reconnect after time apart. Families and small groups of friends are a particular passion for us, so ask us how any of our itineraries can be customized to work for your group.
