Our philosophy
Our group trips are structured differently than what you may be used to seeing. All of our excursions and day trips are optional so that you can customize your own adventure. With the added flexibility, travelers can choose how busy they want their days to be and select the excursions that are interesting to them.
Harder Travel organizes the logistics of the trip, including flights, accommodations, and transportation between the cities we stay in. We want everyone to do the things that interest them the most, so once we arrive in a city we do not require that you join us on any excursion. We will provide ideas and help you get to where you want to go, providing the level of service you need to feel comfortable traveling in that city. We will have one tour per day planned, and anyone will be welcome to join us on that tour if they would like. For example, we might go see the Vatican one day, and you can choose to come with the guides, or you can head to the Colosseum instead. We can show you which metro to take to get there, help you navigate on your phone, or just be available by text or phone call for questions as you try to figure it out on your own. Check out the two sample itineraries below to see how two travelers customized their trip to Italy:
We choose destinations that we have visited multiple times and are accustomed to the culture. Another perk that comes with Harder Travel is that we host two pre-travel gatherings where we share information about the places we're visiting, provide tips on packing and what to expect at our destinations, review different tours and excursions available, and start building relationships with the people that travel with us.
We host small groups with a maximum of 30 people so that we can give a concierge level of service to all travelers that join us. Sign up to receive our newsletter below or on the contact page so you can learn about our 2025 trip to Germany and the Netherlands!

"Harder Travel, Made Easy! These words are so true! Nathan and Carly did a fantastic job organizing the trip to Italy. It was my first time traveling to Europe, and Nathan and Carly did a great job making me feel comfortable and ready for my trip with the pre-planning meetings. Thank you for a wonderful experience."
