Balkans
Five countries, five centuries of Ottoman heritage, and a Muslim community in Europe that has been there since the fifteenth century.

Designed for couples, families and groups of friends, and operated any time of the year you wish.
School holidays, a family reunion, the week either side of Ramadan, a private tour runs whenever it suits you rather than when a group fills.
Two of you or twenty. The vehicle, the guide and the itinerary are yours, and you are not waiting for anyone else at the coach door.
Slow down where it matters and skip what does not interest you. Families with young children and travellers with limited mobility particularly benefit from this.
Halal meals throughout, hotels chosen for location, and an English-speaking Muslim guide, exactly as on our group departures.
From first message to confirmed booking, usually inside two weeks.
Where you would like to go, roughly when, how many are travelling and what matters most to you.
A day-by-day plan with suggested hotels and a full costing, usually within a few days.
Change the pace, swap a city, add or remove nights. There is no charge for revisions at this stage.
Once you are happy we book everything, hotels, guides, transfers, entrances and flights if you need them.
These destinations can all be arranged privately. If somewhere you have in mind is not listed, ask anyway, the list is not exhaustive.
