View Profile

Omega Tours features a rich portfolio of escorted tours, small group tours, independent tours and day tours across Europe, the Americas and more.

Some family secrets are just too good to keep to ourselves – which is why Omega Tours has been sharing the best of Europe and the Americas with our clients ever since our founder started the family business back in 1967.

For three generations, our family has hand-crafted memorable journeys through intimate alleyways, sunny vineyards, vibrant city squares, and all the little nooks tucked beyond the edges of the map. Even after decades of expertise, each tour is still a fresh discovery and each traveler a welcome member of the family – just the way it was when our first clients packed their bags and followed us across the Atlantic.

Omega Tours features a portfolio of escorted tours through Europe and the Americas. Each experience bears our founder’s distinct fingerprint and has been personally tailored to bring out the textures, rhythms, and colors of some of the world’s most beautiful places.

When Stride members travel with us, they travel with family.

They discover the best local partners, providing trips that are both efficient and authentic.
What they’re known for
Well-run group tours that remain affordable despite having many premium features.
