Private Custom Tours and Small Group Tours

 

Welcome to Original World, specialists in authentic, hand-crafted cultural tours steeped in vibrant local color and time-honored traditions.

For 15 years we have offered special interest small group tours as well as custom private travel.  In 2012, we will begin to phase out a few of the designated group tour departures in order to focus more of our attention on private travel tour services, which really has always been the bulk of our business.  We will keep the itineraries on the website as samples. Travelers are free to select their own dates, length of trip and request modification of the itinerary to suit their preferences.  We will also continue to offer group tours to organizations, businesses and any individual who gathers their own group of friends and family. Please check the individual trip pages to see which group tour departures are still being offered and do call us with any questions, 888-367-6147. You can rely on our deep, local expertise to ensure your journey is unique, enlightening and enriching.
