"Life is meant for good friends
&
​great adventures"

JOIN ME ON A NICHE TOUR!

Please see below for scheduled niche tours.

​What is a Niche Tour?

A Niche Tour is a carefully curated experience centered around your specific passions and interests, designed to take you to extraordinary destinations for immersive, meaningful experiences.

Imagine wine pairing in South Africa's picturesque Winelands, discovering the perfect match for a Pinotage. Or perhaps a journey to Antwerp, Belgium, to explore the diamond district, learn about the four C's of diamonds, and enjoying a classic meal of moules-frites paired with a local beer.

Join me on a trip to Norway, my home country, to delve into the rich history of the Vikings and their lasting contributions to civilization. If photography is your passion, picture yourself capturing the magic of the Northern Lights, spending a night in a snow hotel, and sledding with reindeer as part of an unforgettable Arctic adventure.
​
A Niche Tour goes beyond exploring new destinations; it’s about connecting with your passions in unique, inspiring ways.
​

​How does it work?

Niche Tours are designed for small groups of travelers who share a common passion or interest, typically ranging from 10 to 15 participants. This group size ensures a personal and highly customized experience for everyone involved.

While a basic itinerary provides the foundation, what sets these tours apart is their flexibility. Participants can suggest specific activities or experiences they’d like to include. Once all requests are submitted, I collaborate with trusted suppliers to incorporate as many of these personalized elements as possible. The goal is to create a trip that is uniquely engaging and tailored to the interests of each participant.

This approach ensures that every Niche Tour is as dynamic and enriching as the people who join it.
​

​Benefits to a Niche Tour

There are numerous benefits to joining a Niche Tour:
  1. Save time, all arrangements are taken care of, making it a true vacation without having to worry about any of the details.
  2. International travel challenges are minimized because most if not all of the little details are taken care of.
  3. Itineraries are designed by professionals who know where and when you should go to get the most out of your visit.
  4. Remove a lot of the stress and fear from traveling independently.
  5. Travel and share the experience with like-minded people .
  6. Solo travelers may be able to be matched up with a room mate to avoid having to pay the single supplement.
  7. Safety - some destinations may seem a bit intimidating visiting by yourself, so going as a small group will make you feel much safer and comfortable, thereby removing fear and stress.
  8. Your travel leader takes care of any unexpected incidents along the way.
  9. In case of an emergency you are not alone, you have people who can help and support you.
  10. Make new life-long friends.
  11. Small groups can be much more flexible and provide an intimate and personalized tour unlike large groups.
  12. When traveling with a group there are usually experiences that are possible to arrange that will not be when traveling independently.
  13. Traveling as a group often qualifies for group discounts, plus an expense is shared between the other travelers.
  14. You will receive a more seamless experience when everything is taken care of for you.
