Style Style Small Group Tour Small groups are usually defined as between 10 and 24 travelers, often less. If you're the kind of person who enjoys more intimate experiences and personal service this is a good choice. All else being equal you will pay a premium for this style vs a larger group tour.
Private Guided Private tours give you the undivided attention of a guide, and often involve special access to sites and unique experiences not available to larger groups. This is a great option for families, couples, and small friend groups. Expect to pay a bit more for the extra service.
Self Guided Tour A travel company plans your itinerary and arranges all the logistics including lodging, local activities, and transportantion. You have the flexibility of a solo trip while still getting the convience and time savings of expert planning. Get 90% of the benefits of a tour, without a guide.
Group Tour Groups are between 25-60 people, typically ~30-40. Usually there will be many opportunities to split off and enjoy meals and excursions in smaller groups. This is the most economical way to travel, saving up to 40% versus booking the same itinerary yourself.
River Cruise These vessels are smaller than most ocean cruisers, limiting which amenties are available. Passenger counts can vary. One of the biggest advantages of a river cruise is the ability to dock at smaller ports and local villages.
Small Ship Cruise Small ship cruises usually have a max passenger count of 500. The primary purpose of these trips is to spend time off the vessel in local ports (e.g. Mediterranean) or experiencing nature (e.g Galapagos or Antarctica). Cabins can vary from budget to luxury.
Large Ship Cruise This is the "floating city" experience, with multiple ways to enjoy your vacation aboard the ship as much as on land. Ships are multiple floors, provide several activities, culinary, and shopping options. They often make fewer stops and have less time available for shore excursions.
Retreats Similar to a self guided tour but staying in one location only with activities and day outings included as a part of the stay.

This trip has been my favourite contiki so far. I’ve never experienced such warmth in culture, kindness in people, joy in wildlife and awe of scenery. It’s a beautiful slice of heaven in this world. Southern Africa stole a piece of my heart. I’m looking at how I get back and keep exploring. Contiki have this trip nailed and Jesse the trip manager had a big part to play in this. I’d consider doing this trip all over again!

The trip was jam packed with activities! The included activities were informative (insight into culture etc) and were very fun! The free time add ons were amazing. So many lifelong memories made and some once in a life time experiences especially on the safaris and kayaking adventures. My trip managers Jesse and Often were amazing, very caring and made sure everything was going good on our trip and always willing to help out if we needed anything or giving information on animals and culture in Africa. The group quickly became a family and I have made some lifelong friends globally! Be prepared to be exhausted after this trip but it is 100% worth it considering the amazing experiences I had. The accomodation was great, way better than expected, with some very unique stays and amazing lodges. A trip I will never forget!!

Jess and Often were fantastic trip leaders. Hopefully I will do a trip with them again sometime. I will always cherish the memories, laughs and banter with both these guys! I highly recommend doing any tour with these guys as tour leaders. Simply an amazing experience - something I’ll never forget.
