Thank you for your interest in engaging Laurus Travel for your dream vacation!
Backed by an outstanding track record of almost three decades, Laurus Travel excels at designing and executing complex, historically deep, and operationally seamless journeys through the destinations we offer.
To create a customized itinerary accompanied by a guaranteed price quote, we require a non-refundable planning fee of $300, payable by e-transfer, Visa, or Mastercard. The fee will be applied as credit toward your tour payment if you end up booking with us. Since we compete on quality and value for money, not primarily on price, we are not the right choice for consumers looking for bargains.
The process begins with a brief and free consultation over the phone or in-person. Should we agree to take on the project, we will ask you to complete the Private Tour Inquiry Form and pay the required fee.
Upon receipt of the completed inquiry form and the fee, a proposal closely matching your expressed interest and preference will be provided within three business days. After that, three rounds of major revisions will be allowed. Further revisions may be declined or subject to additional fees at our discretion.
Customer Reviews & Testimonials
Google review posted October 2024 by Gladys L:
“As seniors with medical conditions, we cannot handle long tour days in a group, so we asked the staff at Laurus Travel to arrange a private driver and guide for our customized trip to Japan.. The driver/guide, Shin, was very knowledgeable and communicative about information on all the places we visited, sharing the history, importance and difference between Buddhism and Shintoism. He was thoughtful and considerate with our limitations, customizing the schedule to suit our needs. He had umbrellas for rainy days and a portable folding stool in case we needed to rest where there was no resting place. As we boarded the boat to cross the lake at Hakone, he told us to look for seats marked for disabled people. I am grateful that Laurus Travel staff found us such a respectful, knowledgeable driver and guide which made our trip not only comfortable, but successful.”

Hi Heidi,
I just wanted to send you a short note to add to the comments that Barbara T****** has already sent to you. I agree with the summary Barb sent. It was a wonderful and event-filled trip. Our guides were well suited to their roles and I always felt safe and well cared for while in their presence. Additionally the Asian folks that we met were warm and inviting. They seem to like tourists.
There were too many great experiences to list but I really liked the Ha Long Bay cruise, the Cu Chi tunnels and the Cambodian water festival, to name a few.
Our meals were often accompanied by a special menu. One in particular (see photo below) was at a private lunch in Hue. A lovely souvenir.
In summary I would say that, like our previous trip to China, your company has made tourist travel in Asia a very comprehensive and enjoyable adventure.
Thank you!
Regards,
Barb K****
