Escorted Touring Holidays
Travelling on an escorted tour – with companies such as Globus, Insight Vacations, Luxury Gold, Backroads Touring, or Trafalgar – is one of the most relaxed, social, and hassle‑free ways to see the world.
The itinerary is thoughtfully designed in advance, with a tour escort or director, guided sightseeing, quality accommodation, and a number of meals included, so you can simply arrive and enjoy. In most cases, your tour escort meets you at the starting hotel and looks after the group from day one, keeping everything running smoothly behind the scenes.
There is an incredible range of escorted tours to choose from. Group sizes and comfort levels vary, and inclusions differ from tour to tour. You’ll find itineraries suited to first‑time travellers, seasoned explorers, and everyone in between – including specialist journeys focused on food and wine, art and culture, or family‑friendly travel with children.
At YOURTravel & YOURTours, our team have led tours themselves, so we understand first‑hand what makes an escorted tour truly work. If you’re considering joining one, we’d love to talk about what you’re looking for and help you find options that match your style, pace, and interests.
As a fully independent boutique travel business, we have access to a wide range of tour products – including some options that aren’t always visible through standard online booking channels – giving you more choice and flexibility when planning your hosted holiday.
In addition, for those wishing for a little more premium discovery or a small group of maximum 16 guests, we offer our own collection of hosted small-group journeys under the YOURTours brand, led by our own team and hosted right from your doorstep in New Zealand - check out our tours under the YOURTours page.



Some of our Favourite Touring Holidays

Team Choice - Vietnam.
Ok, yes for sure you can journey through Vietnam on your own, however we know first hand how a tour leader can enhance your time in this wondrous destination, such as joining the locals for some Bia Hoi (local brew, pictured above.)
Up to date restaurant recommendations, tailor recommendations, confident route guiding whilst trekking or cycling are all added benefits from having a tour host plus the added value of local guides to bring the highlights alive.
