Company Profile

Albatross Tours offer a unique range of escorted European tours designed specifically for Australians and New Zealanders. Our core business is the design, creation and operation of escorted tours travelling in Europe, the United Kingdom and Turkey. Operating in Australia since 1995, Albatross Tours is a division of The Albatross Travel Group.

Come share our love of Europe...

You and your clients will love our European tours because...

• Our tours are designed with a more leisurely pace to specifically suit you - Australians and New Zealanders. We include 2, 3, 4 and even 7 night stops in most places.
• We travel fewer kilometres every day, which means that you get much more time to enjoy the magical sights you have travelled so far to see (we even show you the average number of kms we travel per day each tour).
• Our tours are genuinely inclusive with those special meals, excursions and even your 'end of tour' tips included in the tour price. There are no later charged extras or hidden expensive excursion lists.
• Our smaller group sizes on our European escorted tours give you a more personal and enjoyable travelling experience. We have a maximum of 30 passengers on our European Summer tour departures and a maximum of 42 passengers on our ANZAC and Christmas tour departures.
• All Albatross tours are guaranteed to depart with as few as only 7 passengers, so you can always book with confidence.
