Experiences Guided by Curiosity
Where will your curiosity take you?Holiday Magic with Context
Picture yourself wandering Vienna’s Christmas markets, snow falling softly, as a historian shares the wild imperial tales behind every steaming mug of glühwein. Or slipping into a tiny Naples workshop where an artisan shows you how they’ve been crafting those glowing nativity scenes for generations.
That’s the magic of diving into a Context holiday tour. No loud groups, no scripted lines. Just you, a ridiculously knowledgeable local expert, and the kind of stories that make you forget the cold.
Whatever lights you up—art, history, food, architecture—we’ll match you with the perfect guide who turns twinkling lights into stories you’ll retell every December for the rest of your life.

Deep, Engaging, Tailored: The Tour for Everyone in Your Party
Conversations, not umbrella tours
"Tim was great. Knowledgeable. Cheeky. Motivating. It was a wonderful tour. We could have talked for hours. This is the exact reason small groups are the best. One on one, non scripted information from a dedicated and knowledgeable professional. Thank you, Tim."

Experts, not guides
“William literally writes the book(s) on the D-Day memorials which led to an incredibly informative day tour. From age 77 to 11, we were all captivated by his knowledge and his ability to connect the dots.”

“Fantastic way to learn or refresh your understanding of key aspects of the history of Britain... One of the great things about a Context private tour is your guide. You can tailor your experience to your group's individual interests. This was our third Context tour. We are 3 for 3 in terms of top shelf guides, each very knowledgeable and personable. Highly recommended!"

Carlos was an excellent tour guide in every way - he was extremely knowledgeable about the Spanish Civil War and taught us so much, but he was also friendly and fun, and he gave us many recommendations for restaurants, tapas bars, and other local destinations. We would highly recommend this tour with Carlos.

We were fortunate enough to be the only ones on the food tour, and Eleonora was the best guide we could have asked for. She was knowledgeable of course, but also personable to the point that we felt like we were just going around with a friend who was in the know about where to get the best food. Highly recommend!
