Enjoy all the benefits of a Jules Verne tour but on a Privately Guided basis for extra privacy, flexibility and convenience.
With a private tour, you and those you have chosen to travel with are the only ones in your group, varying from just two individuals to groups of three or more people. You will enjoy a more personal experience with family or friends, visiting all the programmed sights with your private vehicle and driver/guide, generally allowing better access and more flexibility than larger groups/vehicles. You can choose a published departure date or request an alternative date.
