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.”

Tailored, not one-size fits all

“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!"

What a way to kick off the mezcal and tequila tasting in the middle of a political protest! Raquel showed us the commitment Context Travel has to its clients. She was able to navigate the city center avoiding the crowds and getting us to amazing spots. We could tell all the research that went into preparing this tour because it paid off day 1. Some restaurants closed their doors last minute for the march but since Raquel had plenty of spots to choose from we didn't miss a beat getting to amazing places with very fine tastings. We learned a lot about how mezcal and tequila are made (as well as the best local foods, great music, where to go next, the best local bars). It was a really fun night and we will definitely book future tours through Context Travel. Impressive....most impressive. Thanks Raquel!
Rodrigo is very knowledgeable, personable and passionate about history. He gave us a great tour of the historic center. It was a perfect introduction to the city and wonderful start to our tour. We would definitely book him again - highly recommend!
Informative, entertaining and knowledgeable- a great tour
