    Our Story

Moments that matter… our ‘soul’ purpose.

Tour Time is a family owned, full-service tour operator that has been creating shared transformative experiences in global destinations for over 29 years. But enough about us – we’d rather talk about you!

Creating global citizens is what inspires us. Our ‘soul’ purpose is to expose groups to enlightening experiences that open your eyes to the world and change the way you look at life.

On a Tour Time group tour, you don’t sightsee – you ‘go-do’. It’s all about living deeply. Our depth of experience leads us to believe anything is possible. We break new ground and take risks, adding a personal touch as we collaborate on multi-layered itineraries. Led by knowledgeable tour managers, we’re all about creating shared experiences, together. By going above and beyond expectations, and having strong financial security, we deliver certainty. And in the competitive world of travel tours, that’s worth its weight in gold.

“Happiness is only real when shared.”

Why Tour Time?

When it comes to the most memorable travel experiences, it’s not about the price or the package or even where you go (although that’s important). It’s #momentsthatmatter. Experienced in group travel for 29 years, we’ve dedicated ourselves to seeking out the most immersive and profound global experiences. Here’s what we stand for.

We return you a better person
We know travel isn’t about the selfie sticks, Instagram likes or passport stamps. Travel is a journey into yourself. That’s what we’re all about – transformative experiences of significance that return you home inspired, enlightened, and energised about the future.

We make it personal
As a family business, it’s all about the personal touch. We believe an itinerary loaded with deeper, more purposeful experiences, shaped around your passions and personalities, is something worth paying for.

We believe in shared experiences
As Christopher McCandless discovered on his ultimately doomed solo adventure to Alaska, happiness is only real when shared. These hauntingly beautiful words of wisdom drive our passion for group tours. Through shared experiences with like-minded travellers, we amplify the power of the moment and preserve the stories in our collective memories for years to come.

We promise certainty
In these somewhat unfamiliar and ever-changing times, you can count on us to provide certainty and security. Our Tour Managers travel with you as companions, allowing your group to be exposed to new experiences safely. Plus, as Tour Time is TAANZ financially-bonded and licensed, you can be confident your travel funds are secure, even if life throws a curveball or two.

We make it happen
We believe anything is possible. That’s why our students tour inside Google, Tesla & CERN, not just stand in front of the sign for a picture. It’s why our students perform mass inside St Peter’s Basilica and sing on the stage in the Sydney Opera House and Carnegie Hall, not just look at it.
