Tour Companies

Tour companies to investigate:

Trafalgar Travel

G Adventures, some in conjunction with National Geographic.

Exoticaa - recommended by Norm & Tina

Wheel & Anchor - a Canadian company

Natural Adventure UK organizes hikes throughout Europe (recommended by Linda from the U.S. at Zagreb B&B).

Funky Tours specializing in the Balkan Region countries (recommended by Rick Steves)

GoAhead Tours, Toronto

TourHub has a huge variety of tours around the world, both region, country and multi-country tours. An interesting one is the Five "Stans", visiting Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and Kazakhstan. See my page on Adventure Travel. Not sure of their quality compared to those about - they seem to be a consolidator who contracts with local tour companies.

Don’t use Exoticca Tours according to Norm and Tina of This is Our Retirement.
