So, What Exactly is ‘Business Class’ style?

4 and 5-star hand-picked hotels, seamless travel, an expert Travel Director and 24/7 support are all key components of Insight Vacations’ ‘Business Class’ tours. Along with comfortable coaches with extra legroom, porterage at every hotel and something.

Your premium experience starts with the flexibility to select your group size. Travel in a group averaging 20 travelers, with a maximum of 24, or choose a larger group averaging 33, capped at 40. Both options are smaller than those offered by mainstream tour companies.

Premium dining is also a defining stamp of every Insight Vacations trip. From dining in the homes of locals to immersive farm-to-table dining experiences, cooking demonstrations, top rated restaurants and the best of local fare, every included meal is thoughtfully sourced and thoroughly fabulous.

Always Included on Every Insight Vacations Tour

On every tour your premium essentials are included as standard. Stylish hotels perfectly located, all premium experiences, custom ‘Business Class’ style coaches with extra legroom and window span, all your breakfasts and half of your dinners. Also included are gratuities on all inclusions, airport transfers and complimentary Wi-Fi in hotels and on the coach.

When it comes to cuisine, some evenings are left free so that you have the freedom to travel and eat how you like and won’t feel restricted by a rigid schedule. Lunches normally aren’t set, so you have free time during the day in case you want to take a break or go explore on your own.
