Why choose a Small Group tour?
Small group travel means more opportunities for in-depth experiences.
Here’s what makes it special with AAT Kings:
More Intimate Group Sizes
A maximum of 24 guests ensures a more personalised, small group travel experience. From staying in unique accommodations only available to smaller groups to the opportunity to get to know like-minded travellers, small group tours are the perfect option to connect deeply to your chosen destination and the people you’re travelling with.
Access to Remote Destinations
Travel to rugged regions and hidden gems inaccessible to larger groups. Take a bushwalk to Wangara Lookout at Wilpena Pound; enjoy an open 4WD tour of Arkaroola Ridgetop; indulge in scenic flights over remote landscapes; or witness vast night skies bejewelled with millions of stars in an International Dark Sky Reserve. Each tour is full of immersive experiences that will leave you in awe.
Expertly Curated Itineraries
Each tour balances guided activities with free time, allowing you to explore at your own pace. Perfect for solo travellers wanting to explore Australia and New Zealand, multi-generational families, friends or couples. AAT Kings’ range of Small Group Tours combines must-see sights with carefully curated adventures, so you’ll get more out of every day.
Guided by Experts
AAT Kings’ experienced Travel Directors, Driver Guides and expert local guides bring Australia and New Zealand to life, sharing insider knowledge, cultural insights, and stories you won’t find in a guidebook. With Small Group tours, your Travel Director or Driver Guide will connect you deeply to each destination, introducing you to its hidden wonders and local flavours.
What's Included on your Small Group tour?
Unmatched Comfort in Transport
Recline and relax in our premium coaches, equipped with Wi-Fi (where available), charging ports, and oversized windows perfect for taking in the views. Your only job is to sit back, relax and marvel at the scenic landscapes between adventures.
Meals to Remember
From two-course welcome feasts to select local dining experiences, every meal is a cultural encounter. Sample ice cream made with honey from Ligurian Bees, found nowhere else in Australia than Kangaroo Island; visit Mindil Beach Markets at sunset for a bite with a view; expand your palate at Mount Gnomon Farm with a paddock-to-plate lunch.
Activities with a Difference
Our tours include opportunities for you to travel sustainably and conserve our natural wonders, unique wildlife and support local communities. The MAKE TRAVEL MATTER® Experiences and places visited on your AAT Kings Small Group tour are carefully chosen based on the social and environmental impact they have on their communities and those who experience them. Travel with a purpose.
