An escorted tour means that a trip coordinator is assigned to accompany travelers from start to finish on a particular tour and liaise with local guides that will be used in the regions specific to their areas of expertise. Escorts are often used on trips with group sizes of 10 or more passengers. A locally hosted tour means that local guides are used according to their areas of expertise and region. An escort is not necessary as the local guides also perform similar duties of an escort. Our guides and escorts are all English speaking.
