Rave Reviews: Tour Groups

A rewarding trip is more than pretty sightseeing — it's memories and friendships shared with people along the way. On a Rick Steves tour, the small (24–28 max.) group you travel with will be a big plus. We attract fun, flexible folks who enjoy one another's company, and who often remain close…many years after their "farewell" dinner together.

Here's what our tour members are saying about our groups…


group of people drinking wine and toasting

"Although the tour guide, the hotel and the itinerary were chosen for us, the tour members select themselves — an important point. Anyone taking one of these tours can be confident that they will be traveling with nice people who are open to the experience."
— James in San Francisco, CA

"The sights, the guides, and the wonderful group of people made the tour unforgettable. It felt more like being with friends and family instead of just tour buddies."
— Nancy in Olympia, WA

"The fun nature of the group was the highlight of the trip. We even celebrated two birthdays during the trip. The group was magical."

— Mike in Morrisville, NC

"While I knew I would love Europe, I wasn't sure about traveling with a group of strangers. Well, the group of strangers quickly turned into friends and by the end of the trip they felt like family."
— Tania in Laveen, AZ

"We never felt like we were on a 'tour,' but more like we were traveling with friends."
— Bryan in Farmington, UT
