Globus’ Small Group Discovery tours selling fast for 2025

TORONTO — Globus’ Small Group Discovery tours have taken off for the company, reaching 65% sold-out status for 2025 just six months after launch.

Denise Harper, managing director of sales for Canada for the Globus family of brands, says the tours are designed for travellers seeking exclusivity, immersive experiences and fewer fellow travellers.

Other highlights include special-access excursionsunique accommodations and memorable cultural encounters.

Globus’ Small Group Discovery tours average 15 travellers per tour (18 outside Europe), she added.

“Advisors who are leaning into Small Group Discovery tours are seeing incredible momentum,” said Harper. “These tours aren’t just selling—they’re selling out, with some itineraries setting new sales records. Now is the time for advisors to tap into this high-demand product.”

Four top-selling Small Group Discovery itineraries are: ‘Splendors of South Africa with Victoria Falls’ (helping to drive a 10% year-over-year increase in Africa sales for Globus, says Harper); ‘Swiss Splendors by Train’ (one of the company’s fastest-selling European itineraries); ‘Australian Safari’; and ‘Costa Rica Coast to Coast’.

Harper also recommended ‘A Journey Through Time: Armenia & Georgia’, ‘Enchanting Italy’ with a stay in a former Franciscan monastery in Pienza, ‘Extraordinary England & Scotland’, ‘Paris & Provence’, ‘Croatian Island Hopper’ with overnights in Brac and Hvar, and ‘Majestic Montana & Yellowstone’.

Advantages for travel advisors include higher per diem rates. With an average spend of $500 per day, the Small Group Discovery tours offer premium commission opportunities, said Harper.

Also helpful for agents, strong demand and limited availability translates into urgency for bookings. Plus, the tours are “easy to sell, easier to book: The perfect option for clients who want immersive travel but don’t want to navigate the complexities of independent exploration.”
