Private tours, conversely, provide a more intimate and tailored experience.

Ultimately, the best choice depends on your preferences. If you're travelling solo or as a couple seeking a relaxed experience and don’t mind sharing space with others, a group tour offers excellent value. However, if you prioritise flexibility, a deeper connection with the guide and a more personalised itinerary, exploring private options is definitely worth considering.
