Unfortunately, we exclusively offer 100% private tours to ensure a personalized and focused journey, eliminating distractions from other participants. Our commitment lies in providing a tailored, private tour experience that caters specifically to your group's unique needs and interests. This approach enables us to dedicate our full attention to crafting an itinerary that aligns perfectly with your preferences, ensuring a superior and bespoke experience. We do not offer non-private tours, as they provide a subpar experience and fail to meet our high standards for personalization and attentive service. Our goal is to ensure that every aspect of your tour is meticulously designed to provide the highest level of satisfaction and enjoyment—a quality only achievable through a private tour.

Ready:

Due to very high demand for our magic, our small boutique agency is highly selective about the clients we take on. We work exclusively with those who are committed to promptly booking the unique 5-star experiences we craft, regardless of when their future tour is for. Our clients come specifically to us for the special touch that only we can provide and our limited resources means we must focus our efforts only on those clients that will book with us in order to ensure our high standards.

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!
"I contacted Orange Donut Tours through their website inquiring about setting up a private tour program for a group of 8 people for early April. I got a prompt and very professional response from Aleksandra, who was very eager to find out about our interests, likes and dislikes, etc. In just a couple of days, she custom tailored a 4 day tour with private mini-bus and chauffeur. On paper things looked good but, to be totally honest, I was still uncertain and very anxious about what to expect, specially that I had to pay the full cost upfront. On the first day, Aleksandra greeted us at our hotel lobby. She was prompt (although we were not!), super friendly and made us feel at ease and very welcomed! The tour she designed for us created unforgettable memories for my entire family to last us a lifetime. She made us appreciate the city in a very special way! By the end of the trip, Aleksandra felt like part of the family and we missed her dearly on our last day! Thank you Aleksandra for the wonderful memories. The city, the tour and you were just AMAZING!!!!"
