Our guide in Nishiki Market had limited English and he was difficult to understand. He was very pleasant though.

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!"

Paolo was a fantastic tour guide. We learned so much about Rome’s history. A well spent 3 hours. We would do it again. Thank you Context Travel. You made our Rome visit so worthwhile.

Priscilla was a fantastic guide. She had all the info and the answers about the Vatican. Our private tour was worth every penny. Truly, the entire experience with Context Travel was flawless. I will definitely use Context for future tours. Thank you.
