Why Small Groups?

Sometimes less is more, which is why on our Small Group Tours numbers are capped at 20. This means we can include activities that just aren't possible for larger groups; enjoy a private tour with the key keeper of the Vatican, stay in memorable mountaintop hotels in the Swiss Alps, go truffle hunting in Umbria, and drink wine cultivated on the fertile slopes of a volcano.

Boutique Hotels

Tulloch Castle still boasts many original features, including its 250-year old Great Hall. With just 20 rooms on site, small group tours allows us to book this incredible hotel for our customers for the first time ever.

Private tours

A small group tour provides many experiences our larger group tours to some areas simply cannot.

Bespoke excursions

Relish an intimate look around one of the region's most historically significant castles and sample distinctive wines from a rising star of the French vintnery scene.

The Small Groups Experience

Journey into the Scottish Highlands and spend time at the remarkable Alladale Wilderness Reserve, where your meals will be prepared by a private chef, or perhaps head to Switzerland for a tour that combines some of the world's most acclaimed railways with mountain top accommodation that will make you feel like you're on top of the world. Over in Sicily, you could enjoy a private tour from a princess while supping on a traditional Italian aperitif, before finding out exactly how it's possible to produce wine on the slopes of a volcano. From the secret treasures of Wales' stately homes, to unlocking the mysteries of Edinburgh's intriguing past, we've brought together some of the most exclusive holiday experiences, with each itinerary completely unique to Great Rail Journeys.
