Tour Operator
Heritage Tours Private Travel is a destination specialist based in New York that creates custom-designed, private tours of Morocco, Spain, Portugal, Turkey, and Southern & East Africa.
Heritage Tours Private Travel organizes private luxury travel experiences to Morocco, Spain, Portugal, Turkey and Southern & East Africa. We offer our clients the very best properties, hand-picked expert guides, and unique experiences (which may include encounters with accomplished architects, top chefs, wine enthusiasts, museum curators, notable authors and more).
Our guides are among the best available; our drivers and driver/guides are always popular with our clients.
We believe that the most important service we can provide for you is giving you a truly outstanding guide - someone who can provide you with the context needed to weave together the various threads of your experiences as a guest in his or her country. A good guide not only provides historical/ cultural information and assistance with logistical matters, but also becomes your friend—knowing when to step away, but also knowing when to provide just a bit more assistance. It is your guide who provides the "window" through which you see the country and for you, he or she becomes your most lasting impression of that country.
