When Marion Bunnik started Bunnik Tours, the world didn’t need another tour company - it needed a better way of touring!
With nearly 30 years of experience, we have built a solid business; first as a travel agency, and then some 15 years ago we created our touring brand.
Our overarching aim remains simple, to provide a better way for travellers to see the world. This is made possible through our small group tours.
We do this by creating a series of unique holiday experiences:
- Small group tours of no more than 20 passengers, specifically designed to capture the essence of the places we visit.
- Tours that provide the perfect balance between organised sightseeing and free time for independent discovery.
- Holidays that visit the famous attractions but also wander off the usual tourist trail.
- Complete and stress-free tour packages with accommodation, guides, tipping, and meals included (and much more!).
- Independent travel packages are a flexible way to visit one or more destinations. They can also be added onto our small group tours for a unique experience!
- A strong belief in responsible travel and sustainable tourism.
We have always been a family of travellers at heart, exploring the world around us with equal parts wonder, good humour and curiosity. As a family business we understand that our family's name and reputation is at stake every time we sell a holiday. We take your trust very seriously and look forward to the day when we can help you explore the world.
Dennis Bunnik is the chair of the Council of Australian Tour Operators (CATO) and we are actively involved in helping to improve the overall professionalism of the travel industry.
Discover our passion for this incredible planet and its inhabitants, and experience your tour the ‘Bunnik Way’!
