AIRFARES INCLUDED

Escorted Escapes generally uses premium airlines to give you the most direct flights and best connection times to your destination. Upgrades are available at an additional cost.
NO HIDDEN FEES
Due to a firm belief that travel should be simple and easy, Escorted Escapes has no hidden fees. Visa costs for Australian passport holders are included in every tour. Hosts take care of tipping for you, not just for your local tour leader, but for every local guide and driver on all included activities.
UNIQUE ITINERARIES
Each itinerary is carefully planned and unique. They are individually designed with Escorted Escapes' clientele in mind, reflecting the team's extensive travel industry experience and taking into account valued customer feedback.
SOLO TRAVELLERS
If you’re travelling solo you don’t need to be travelling alone. With Escorted Escapes, you have the opportunity to travel with a whole new set of friends. Single supplements are low to keep your costs down and remove the stress of travelling by yourself.
AUSTRALIAN-BASED TOUR HOSTS
Each and every tour is hosted by an experienced travel professional. They are there throughout the tour to liaise with the local operators, ensuring you relax and fully enjoy your holiday while they take care of the details.
GUARANTEED SMALL GROUPS
Small group touring with Escorted Escapes is exactly as it sounds. Your group size will never exceed 20 travellers on any one tour, guaranteed. With fewer travellers, you’ll spend less time checking into hotels and getting on (and off) transport and more time seeing the sights.
MEAL INCLUSIONS
Breakfast is included each day for your convenience. A selection of other included meals is offered, as per the individual tour itinerary, while also allowing plenty of opportunities to sample the local cuisine at your leisure. Welcome and farewell dinners are also included on each and every tour.
QUALITY ACCOMMODATION
Escorted Escapes uses a range of quality accommodation including hotels, lodges, luxury tented camps and cruise cabins. Taking pride in selecting the best locations, you can rest assured that all accommodation also includes private ensuite facilities.
TRANSFERS IN AUSTRALIA
Return transfers in Australia are included up to the value of $100 per person. If the cost between your home and your tour departure city (Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne or Adelaide) exceeds this, you can either pay the difference or have the $100 refunded and make your own way to and from your tour departure airport.
TOUR LEADERS & LOCAL GUIDES
Each Escorted Escapes trip includes a local English-speaking tour leader who is your destination expert, in addition to your Australian-based tour host. The services of expert local guides are also utilised where appropriate.
INCLUSIVE SIGHTSEEING
Once you’re on tour, you shouldn’t have to worry about paying for extras along the way. That’s why we have selected the best sightseeing options and included them. From every entry fee, to all game drives, from a Tango show in Buenos Aires, to a helicopter flight over Victoria Falls!
HANDY TRAVEL PACK
As the Escorted Escapes team are all avid travelers and aware that some things are indispensable while travelling, you also receive a handy travel pack. This includes a backpack, personalised itinerary, leather document wallet, insulated drink bottle, universal travel adapter with USB ports, hand sanitiser, luggage tags and laundry bag.
