Small Group Tours With Wild Frontiers
Award winning escorted tours
Travel with Like minded people
Our small group adventures offer a great way to get under the skin of a destination in the company of like-minded people. By limiting most departures to a maximum size of just 12 travellers, we minimise the impact on fragile environments and allow for those unplanned moments which make a Wild Frontiers holiday unique. From being invited to lunch with nomads in Kyrgyzstan to attending a wedding in India, our more approachable group size allows for plenty of local interaction. We can also get off the beaten path more easily and use accommodation and transport which would be off-limits to larger groups. Whether you are a solo traveller or travelling with a friend or loved one, we have the perfect trip for you.
How Group Tours Work
 No hidden extras.jpeg)
NO HIDDEN EXTRAS
What you see and pay for is exactly what you get. Everything mentioned in the itinerary is included unless very clearly stated otherwise. Unlike many of our competitors, our tours are not padded out with lots of optional extras, which need to be paid for locally. We try to avoid the need to split bills and to offer a smoother and more complete inclusive service to you.
MEALS
Where viable we always aim to eat in small independent restaurants rather than chains, enabling you to try regional specialities in the company of locals. We also regularly arrange picnic lunches, often in spectacular locations, to maximise your time seeing the sights. free time.jpeg)
FREE TIME
Whilst trying to show you as much of the destination as possible our itineraries also allow time to relax or explore independently, typically a half or full day every 3-5 days. Accom.jpeg)
CHARACTERFUL ACCOMMODATION
We aim to use accommodation that enhances the overall experience, such as small, boutique hotels, guesthouses and homestays; yurts and camping under vast desert skies; and in India, heritage hotels, houseboats and palaces. Transport.jpeg)
TRANSPORT
Vehicles vary by destination and you could find yourself using trains and boats as much as minibuses and 4WDs. We source all transport locally and so are always free to select the most suitable and varied transportation available. Comfort.jpeg)
COMFORT & ADVENTURE
Some of our adventures may involve bumpy roads, remote border crossings or simple accommodation. Conversely, others are more relaxing, move at a slower pace with comfortable accommodation. Each tour has a detailed day-by-day description as well as a KEY POINTS TO CONSIDER section. Fitness.jpeg)
FITNESS RATING
Tours have a clearly-labelled fitness rating ranging from Low to High, helping you choose the tour which is right for you. While all tours will include some walking, in the lower fitness ratings categories these will always be easy and/or optional. If you’re looking for a more active trip, be sure to choose a trip rated Moderate or higher.
EXPERIENCED TOUR LEADERS AND GUIDES
Often in combination with knowledgeable local guides, our tour leaders are dedicated professionals who use their logistical expertise to not only smooth over many of the challenges of international travel but also to seek out ad hoc unexpected extras for you and your fellow travellers.

EXTENSIONS
We have an experienced tailormade team who can help with any extensions should you wish to spend a few extra days at the beginning or end of your trip. Or alternatively, you can choose to make the most of your time away and add on a full tailormade itinerary to perfectly complement your group travel experience.Now I have discovered Wild Frontiers, I cannot imagine travelling with anyone else. The small friendly groups, the knowledgeable guides, the chance to interact with local people, the all-inclusive packages, the personal touch and the choice of places to visit.

What are the group sizes on Wild Frontiers tours?
The average Wild Frontiers group size is between 9 and 12 clients. This small group size has proven to be ideal as it allows us to minimise our footprints while giving room for those unexpected moments, such as being invited into someone's home for tea or to share a picnic. Having a few like-minded people to converse with over dinner means there are often plenty of interesting conversations to be had with your fellow travellers.
Is a Wild Frontiers small group tour suitable for solo travellers?
Yes, all our small group tours are ideal for solo travellers. In fact, It is not unusual for more than half of the people in each group to be travelling solo. Being in a small group will allow you to share the experience with like-minded travellers. There is no additional cost for single travellers on our tours if you share a room with another traveller of the same sex, with whom we can pair you up. If you would prefer your own room, then you will need to pay a single supplement, which varies depending on the tour.
I am travelling on my own, do I need to pay for a private room?
As standard on our tours, single travellers will be roomed with someone of the same gender. However, if you wish to have your own guaranteed private room, you can opt to pay for a single room. In some locations single rooms are not available (some guesthouses, overnight trains etc) and you will have to share – where this is the case it will be indicated on the Trip Itinerary.
As a female travelling solo, will I be safe on our tours?
Yes, the safety of our customers is our number one priority. Travelling with a group is a reassuring way to stay safe and you will have a tour-leader with you throughout who will look out for the whole group. In fact, many women choose to travel with us on our small group tours for precisely the added confidence that this way of travelling brings.
What types of group tours do we offer?
Group travel is available in several forms: Signature Tours, Cultural Tours, Epic Journeys, Festivals and Fairs, Walking Tours, Wilderness Tours and Wildlife Tours.
Who will escort the tour?
All our small group tours will be escorted by a Wild Frontiers tour-leader who will accompany the tour throughout. Often they are experts in their chosen destinations and in conjunction with local guides will pride themselves on showing you both must-see highlights and hidden gems that are easily overlooked by travellers.
How responsible are your group tours?
Responsible travel is at the heart of our business, we believe sustainable travel can be a powerful force for good. A successful Wild Frontiers tour not only delivers a unique and unsurpassable journey for you, but it will also benefit the people whose lands we are privileged to visit. Please see more about our Responsible Travel.
Do you have any other holidays that aren't with a group?
Yes, we offer Private Tours and Tailor-Made Holidays. Most of our group tours can be made into a private version, so you can enjoy our award winning small group tours with just your family and friends. With our Tailor-Made Holidays, our expert travel consultants will help to design an itinerary designed to your tastes and budget.
What ages are the group holidays suitable for?
Whether you're in your 30s or your 70s, our trips can be just right for you, and they attract a wide range of travellers. Regarding required level of fitness, every small group tour has a detailed day-by-day description as well as key points to consider in terms of comfort and fitness level required.
