We passionately believe travel is a life-enriching experience - giving our guests the best tour experience is our number one priority! To give travelers a consistently high-quality experience when touring with us, we set up our organization a bit differently from most. Rather than outsource or use freelancers, we design & operate our tours ourselves - from the ground up. Even our guides are company trained.
We design our tours with balance to have a wide range of fun, diverse inclusions but also to be comfortably paced. This allows you to take home memorable experiences (Nothing is worse than coming home from a trip so frantic, you forget everything!)
Please see Before You Book on each tour page for details. Beyond weather and sights, please keep in mind airfares will also increase during the peak seasons of summer and winter holidays.
Each group is a differernt, so this will depend on the season and destination; our average group size is about 20 guests. Our maximum for most tours is 26 (depending on itinerary).
Groups sell out early during high demand periods such as holidays or popular seasons (fall foliage or cherry blossom season in Japan). In case you have any questions about size for any departure, please do not hesitate to ask.
We believe in providing high quality & value with fair pricing upfront. If you compare prices & quality of similar tours, you’ll be pleasantly surprised to see our packages are usually more affordable because we do everything directly. This means we don’t often have discounts, but on rare occasions we do have special promotions. Subscribe to our newsletter to stay up to date!
All tours paid by check/ACH automatically qualify for 2% off the land price.
Reserving a tour is a simple 3-step process:
Some tours sell out quickly, so reserving early gives us the opportunity to ensure your tour space and find the best airfares for you. The ideal time to make your reservations is typically 4-6 months before your planned travel date. For peak seasons (summer and winter vacation), we suggest 6-9 months ahead.
Each tour may be different. Please see payment schedule details under Terms and Conditions
Yes! If your child is sharing a bed with an adult and is under 12 years old, a 15% discount is available.
Many hotels in overseas destinations are required by local governments to register foreign guests. Airlines also have stiff rebooking penalties if ticketed names do not match and need to be changed. For these reasons, we use passport copies to help you expedite check-in, minimize costly errors, and for air ticket name verification.
This requirement can be waived by completing a signed waiver releasing the liability of potential fines levied by airlines (up to, but not limited to 500USD per person). Once complete, please return this form to us along with your payment authorization instead of passport copies.
Certainly! Triple room arrangements are available for most tours with the same price as double-occupancy rates. Each hotel is different, but for most of our hotels, this means you will be accommodated with a rollaway bed in a standard room. Keep in mind rooms in some countries (such as Japan) may be smaller than what you may expect from hotels in other countries, so please consider which arrangement would work for your personal preferences. If triple rooms are unavailable, this information will be listed on the "Fares + Dates" section for each tour.
Our prices are based on double-occupancy, but we can certainly accommodate single travelers as well. Please ask about single supplement costs. We regret our twin-share program has been discontinued as a direct response to our guests’ feedback to maintain a high standard of quality.
Yes, absolutely! For most tours, we have our own private fares which are usually more competitive. We are also experts in airline schedules, so we can help find the best options for you balanced between quality and cost (US/Canada departures only). Unlike online airfares which usually must be paid instantly, our wholesale air contracts may have more flexible deadlines, so you have time to review the details and make sure the trip we are planning is right for you.
Airlines do sometimes have great special promotions as well, so it’s always worth comparing to find an airfare that works for you.
However, airlines mileage policies and agreements are continuously updated, and unfortunately we cannot guarantee all airfares will qualify for mileage accumulation. If you have any questions about mileage accrual, please check with us at the time of booking.
If you would like us to note your airline reservations with your mileage account information, please let us know, and we will be happy to help.
Mileage upgrades are not generally available for our special private fares. In this case, we suggest purchasing airline tickets separately.
Travel is fun with a friend! Our rates assume your reservations are made for two guests per room, or “double-occupancy.” Double-occupancy room shares the costs of hotels for both travelers. Our standard room configuration is for a "TWN" room type which means there will be two full-size (or larger) beds per room. In case you prefer a different configuration, please let us know. Availability will depend on each hotel and is different for each destination, but we will certainly try our best to accommodate.
We are committed to offering the best prices to our guests. On rare occasions, the fare may increase for a tour. We always honor the price for any existing reservations, but new reservations will be subject to the latest available fare. For quotes with airfare included, we will find the best airfares available at the time of booking. Unfortunately, airline space does sell out as we near each departure date and airfares may increase depending on availability.
Yes! We host quite a few private groups every year.
If you have a large group of friends and family ready to travel together, a private group can be a great option. We can help with private groups of various sizes, but please note smaller groups will tend to be more costly. For the best balance of price vs quality, we normally suggest a group size of at least 16-20 guests.
For more information on private groups, call us at 877-388-1777 or email us at info@superatours.com.
