For groups
Six of you shouldn’t pay six times
Most tours sell a fare per traveller, so the bill scales with your group. Some sell the whole booking at one price — and past five people, that is simply the cheaper way to go. Nobody lets you filter for it, so we read the catalogue and did the arithmetic.

The arithmetic, plainly
A per-person tour costs about $85 a head whether you are two or ten — that figure never moves. A per-group tour costs about $298 for the booking, so it divides: $60 each at five, $50 at six, $37 at eight. Five is where the two lines cross. The full table, at every party size.
Which means a private guide, at your own pace, with a vehicle to yourselves, is often not the extravagant option for a group — it is the cheap one. The industry photographs and prices for couples, so this never gets advertised.
The other problem: fitting in one booking
Group size caps are published and routinely missed. 12.3% of what we read cannot take eight people in a single booking — which means two bookings, possibly two departure times, and a group split in half. Enter your number once and every card checks it.
