Small Group Escorted Touring by Jessica

2027 Personally Escorted Tours

Travel solo, without travelling alone.

In 2027, I’m taking my personally escorted tours to some incredible destinations across Australia, Europe and Sri Lanka, and this time, they’re designed with solo travellers in mind.

These are small-group tours, giving you the perfect balance of travelling with a friendly group while still having the freedom to enjoy the journey your way.

And importantly, there’s no solo supplement.

You’ll have your own room, your own space and the reassurance of travelling with a small group of like-minded travellers, all personally escorted by me.

But if you already have someone you’d love to travel with, that’s welcome too! Partners and friends can join you, with a twin-share discount available on selected tours.

Hobart – January 2027

Join me for a relaxed escape to Hobart, Tasmania, where we’ll combine fascinating history, beautiful scenery, local food and wine, and plenty of time to enjoy the city at an easy pace.

Based in the heart of Hobart at Hadley’s Orient Hotel, this small-group tour has been designed to give you the chance to experience some of the best of the city and its surrounds without feeling like you’re constantly rushing from one activity to the next.

Our adventure begins with a welcome dinner in Hobart, giving us the perfect opportunity to meet one another and settle into our Tasmanian getaway.

We’ll spend our first full day exploring kunanyi / Mount Wellington, taking in the spectacular views across Hobart and beyond, before enjoying a traditional high tea at Hadley’s Orient Hotel in the afternoon.

History lovers will enjoy our Salamanca history walking tour, followed by an afternoon visit to the charming historic village of Richmond. There will also be plenty of time to explore Hobart at your own pace.

Saturday brings one of Hobart’s most famous experiences, Salamanca Market. Take your time browsing the stalls, discovering local produce, handmade goods and Tasmanian specialties before we head into the Coal River Valley for an afternoon winery tour.

We’ll finish our Tasmanian adventure with a farewell dinner, giving us the chance to enjoy one final evening together and reflect on the experiences and memories we’ve shared.

Adelaide – March 2027

Join me for a relaxed six-day escape through some of South Australia’s most beautiful and delicious highlights. Designed with solo travellers in mind, this small-group tour is all about enjoying great experiences, meeting like-minded travellers and taking the stress out of organising the details.

Based in the heart of Adelaide, we’ll enjoy a mix of charming towns, beautiful scenery, indulgent food and wine, and an unforgettable wildlife experience.

Our adventure begins in Adelaide before heading to the historic German village of Hahndorf, where you’ll have time to explore at your own pace and, if you wish, try your hand at a traditional strudel-making workshop.

We’ll then head into the Adelaide Hills for a leisurely high tea at Mount Lofty, with plenty of time afterwards to enjoy Adelaide and its surrounding attractions.

No South Australian getaway would be complete without a day in the Barossa Valley, where we’ll explore one of Australia’s most renowned wine regions before returning to Adelaide for another evening together.

Our final full day takes us to Monarto Safari Park, where you’ll have the opportunity to see an incredible range of wildlife in a spectacular open-range setting. We’ll finish the tour with a special farewell dinner in Adelaide, included as part of your tour.

Throughout the tour, I’ll be there to personally escort the group, take care of the logistics and make sure you have someone to turn to if you need anything. Each evening, I’ll provide dinner recommendations, and you’re welcome to join me and the group or head off and do your own thing.

United Kingdom – April 2027

Join Jessica on a 12-day personally escorted journey through some of the most beautiful and fascinating parts of Britain, travelling from Edinburgh through Yorkshire and the Cotswolds before finishing in London.

This tour has been designed for travellers who don’t like rushing from one destination to the next. Rather than trying to squeeze everything into a packed itinerary, we’ll take our time, enjoy longer stays and experience each destination at a relaxed pace.

Your journey begins in London, where we’ll meet at Paddington Station before boarding our First Class train to Edinburgh. From Scotland’s capital, we’ll enjoy a private walking tour, afternoon tea at Edinburgh Castle and a day exploring Loch Lomond, Stirling Castle and The Kelpies.

We’ll then travel by First Class rail to York, using the city as our base to explore the surrounding Yorkshire countryside. There’ll be time to discover York at your own pace, as well as day trips to Harrogate, Whitby and the beautiful North York Moors.

From York, we continue south by First Class train to Cheltenham Spa, settling into the beautiful Cotswolds for four nights. From here, we’ll explore picturesque villages including Bibury and Bourton-on-the-Water, visit Stratford-upon-Avon and discover the historic town of Cirencester.

Along the way, enjoy afternoon teas, local dining, guided walks and plenty of free time to simply wander, explore or relax. With First Class rail travel included, comfortable accommodation, selected meals, organised day trips and Jessica personally escorting the tour from Australia, the logistics are taken care of so you can concentrate on enjoying Britain.

Puglia, Italy – April 2027

Puglia is the Italy many of us imagine. Whitewashed hilltop towns, ancient olive groves, crystal-clear Adriatic waters, incredible food and wine, and a wonderfully relaxed pace of life.

Rather than moving from hotel to hotel, we’ll make ourselves at home in a beautiful traditional Masseria, a whitewashed Puglian farmhouse surrounded by ancient olive trees and peaceful countryside. With a lovely pool, warm hospitality and plenty of space to unwind, it gives us the perfect base for exploring the region.

Throughout the week, we’ll discover some of Puglia and neighbouring Basilicata’s most fascinating towns and landscapes. Wander the charming streets of Ostuni, explore the ancient cave dwellings of Matera, admire the iconic trulli of Alberobello, and enjoy the beautiful towns of Locorotondo, Monopoli, Polignano a Mare and Lecce.

But this tour is about more than simply ticking places off a list. There will be opportunities to experience Puglia through its food, traditions and local connections. From an olive oil grove tour and tasting, to a delicious seaside seafood lunch and a hands-on farm-to-table cooking experience using fresh local produce.

With a maximum of 12 guests, this is an intimate small-group experience designed to be friendly, comfortable and never rushed. We’ll have local guides and hosts with us throughout the tour, private transportation between destinations and plenty of opportunities to enjoy local food and wine together.

This is Puglia at a slower pace. Beautiful places, wonderful food, authentic experiences and time to actually enjoy where you are.

Northern Territory – June 2027

Experience the magic of Australia’s Red Centre on this relaxed five-day escape to Uluru. Designed specifically with solo travellers in mind, this small-group adventure combines iconic outback landscapes, unforgettable experiences and plenty of free time to enjoy the resort at your own pace.

Our base for the trip is the Voyages Outback Resort, giving us easy access to Uluru and the surrounding attractions while providing a comfortable place to relax between adventures.

Your three-day Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park Pass is included, giving you the opportunity to experience the incredible landscapes and natural beauty of this remarkable part of Australia.

One of the highlights of the tour will be an evening at Field of Light, where you’ll experience Bruce Munro’s spectacular illuminated installation against the backdrop of Uluru. We’ll also enjoy a special Uluru BBQ dinner, giving us the chance to enjoy an iconic outback evening together.

For those looking for a little more adventure, there are optional experiences available. You can join the Uluru Morning Guided Base Walk, an approximately 10.5km guided experience beginning in the early morning, or take an optional full-day trip to Kings Canyon and the Outback, exploring another of the Red Centre’s spectacular landscapes.

There’s also plenty of downtime built into the itinerary. With two free days at the resort, you won’t feel like you’re constantly rushing from one experience to the next. Spend the day relaxing, enjoying the resort facilities or simply taking in the unique atmosphere of the Red Centre.

Hosted Cruises

Join me on selected group cruise departures in 2027. These cruises are open to everyone, whether you’re travelling solo, as a couple or with friends, and offer a wonderful way to explore multiple destinations without constantly packing and unpacking. I will personally host the departure once the minimum group size of 8 guests has been reached. If the minimum number isn’t met, the cruise will still go ahead as planned, but without me hosting the group. I can also assist with flights, pre- and post-cruise accommodation, transfers, travel insurance and other arrangements to make your holiday seamless from start to finish.

What makes Jessica’s tours different?

They’re designed around you.

I know that travelling solo doesn’t necessarily mean wanting to travel completely alone.

You might enjoy having someone to share dinner with, but also want some time to yourself. You might love having everything organised, but still want the freedom to decide how you spend your free time.

That’s exactly what these tours are designed to offer.

You can travel independently, while knowing that Jessica and your small group are there when you want them.

I’ll take care of the logistics, transport and organisation, so you can concentrate on enjoying the destination.


Your place in the group

These tours are intentionally kept small, creating a more relaxed and personal travel experience.

You’ll meet other travellers along the way, share experiences and have the opportunity to make new friends — but there’s never any pressure to be part of the group every minute.

Want to join everyone for dinner? Wonderful.
Want a quiet night to yourself? That’s perfectly okay too.

I’ll provide dinner recommendations each evening and let everyone know the plan for the following day, so you can decide what suits you.

Payment & Booking Details

To secure your place on the tour, a deposit is required at the time of booking. Payment plans are available, including the option to pay your deposit in instalments, making it easier to spread the cost of your trip. This deposit is non-refundable should you choose to cancel; however, if minimum group numbers are not met and the tour is unable to proceed, your deposit will be fully refunded.

You can choose to continue with a payment plan for the remaining balance or make an upfront payment.

Final payment is due 90 days prior to departure for international tours, and 60 days prior for domestic tours.

A discount is available for twin-share bookings for those travelling with a companion.

Ready to come along?

Whether you’re an experienced traveller or you’ve always wanted to travel but never had someone to go with, I’d love to have you join me.

My 2027 tours are all about seeing incredible places, meeting wonderful people and making travel feel easy.

Small groups. Your own room. No solo supplement. Personally escorted by Jessica.
