Hi, thank you for being here and for taking us into consideration, we feel truly honored. We are aware that there is a lot of fantastic choices for you to pick for your next trip.

At tova travel, we curate small group round trips for our travellers, that focus on showing a country from a local and personal perspective. We want you to immerse yourself in the culture, learn from locals, taste the food, smell the air, sip the drinks and the hidden gems of every country and of every place with your local guide who knows best. We are not visitors - we live and breathe a culture.

For each trip to all of our offered itineraries, we have decided to travel in small groups of minimum 2 travellers (plus a host) and maximum 7 travellers (plus one host). Some of the small group trips are even smaller, please see all country pages. This allows us to be present for you, and you to be part of a group as opposed to be part of an anonymous tour. Also, the idea of a small group is much more accessible for locals than larger groups.

Please read more about our philosophy here.

Please note that your flights are not included, we kindly ask to book separately and please let us know your arrival and departure details prior to your touch down, so that we can arrange your pick up and departure at the airport.

All travellers and participants must be 18 years of age or older to travel with us unless it is stated otherwise, in which case a minor under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an authorized adult. We ask you for written proof of that.

We also ask you to send us a copy of your travel insurance - it is mandatory for all of our trips.

Please get your visa or check visa regulations for your country, it is mandatory to enter the country.

Please also check your vaccinations in case you need to refresh those.
