Your Touring Options & Benefits
Escorted & Small Group Tours
MW Tours is known for its Escorted & Fully Inclusive Small Group Tours. Where everything is organised in its air & land packages including international and domestic economy class airfares, any cruise or train tickets, quality accommodation, delicious local meals, airconditioned transfers, professional English speaking local guides, all entrance and monument fees, tipping for your guides and drivers, and more! One of the biggest benefits of travelling on a Small Group Tour is the personal and attentive service you receive from MW Tours' guides. You will also be travelling with other guests that share similar interests with you, helping you to make new friends along the way!
Modular Travel
If you would like a little more independence or would just prefer not to have everything included, MW Tours' modular tours have been put together for you:
They will use a series of day tours, accommodation & transportation.
Coaches will generally pick up and drop off guests from selected hotels, or you may need to meet at a dedicated pick-up point or you may even be dropped in a central area to make your own way home. They allow you to see the best sights in your fantastic destinations, while giving you extra freedom to explore on your own.
They are also more budget friendly, as you can choose your own methods of transportation, make your own way to hotels, or decide where you would like to eat.
You could even pick from MW Tours' range of Excursions to make your own tour.
Although they look like a tour, they actually operate on an independent basis, which means you could be with different people & guides each day, due to their size capabilities, which offer competitive pricing with maximum flexibility. It's important to check all the inclusions and exclusions for each of these tours as they will vary a lot, depending on the location.
Seat in Coach (SIC) Travel
Many destinations often offer group tours that can be joined by travellers from all over the world. Known as SIC Tours, they allow English-speaking travellers to join an escorted tour, with a National Guide who can best show you the highlights of a destination. MW Tours sell these tours on behalf of local suppliers and only use the best SIC Tour providers to ensure its high standards are met. It's important to note that these tours are mainly for first time travellers, so it's best to keep in mind that they aim to show you as much as possible in a short period of time. Travel times each day may be as long as 12hrs to ensure you make the most of your experience.
Tailor-made (FIT) Travel
If MW Tours doesn't have exactly what you want, MW Tours can customise an itinerary that meets your needs! Whether you are a solo traveller, making arrangements for school groups or families, or have a club with special interests (looking at you, Craft enthusiasts or Foodies!), MW Tours' friendly Travel Consultants are here to help. MW Tours' FIT Tours can be organised in whichever way you want, allowing you the freedom to choose the style and budget that suits you the most.
Authenticity
Itineraries are designed to take you to areas off the beaten track to discover unique & authentic cultural experiences, like staying in a temple and experiencing life as a monk, or exploring the remote areas of India and the foothills of the Himalayas, where cars are banned from the town centres.
Luxury Hotels
Small group touring allows a broader range of accommodation options. All group tours use quality 4-5 star luxury hotels, inspected by MW Tours staff and local partners to meet high standards. In remote areas, the best local hotels accommodate travellers.
Unforgettable Dining
Don't worry about having no availability at restaurants. Local guides will get you a table at the most delicious, authentic & quaint eateries. Tours include most meals as indicated in the itinerary. Breakfast can often be a combination of local and western food, usually served in a buffet style. Lunch and Dinner consist of famous traditional local cuisine, with a wide range of specialties to choose from. Included meals are designed to offer travellers an opportunity to experience various types of local cuisine and flavours.
Group Sizes
Group sizes in each destination vary, with average group sizes ranging from 6 to 15 guests. Most group tours are guaranteed to depart with a minimum 2 (excludes Festival & Seasonal tours), so you can book with confidence knowing your trip will not be cancelled due to insufficient numbers (a risk with many other operators).
Local & National Guides
Tour guides are the most important factor of your group travel. MW Tours is lucky enough to have knowledgeable, professional, responsible and delightful local guides to serve you and make sure you enjoy your tour and share their in-depth knowledge. MW Tours' professional English-speaking national guides/tour escorts will also accompany you throughout group tours with larger numbers of guests. They will be there to handle daily arrangements, coordinate with each local guide and make sure your holiday runs smoothly.
Transportation
Various means of transportation are offered, with comfort and enjoyment in mind:
