Private Tours · Europe & Japan · 19 Countries
We are a tiny, slightly obsessive team. We build private trips around how you like to travel, and we know the hotel owners by first name.
New in town. Tiny on purpose.
No reviews to show yet. We'd rather earn them than borrow them.
Based in Europe
No office. Usually on a train.

By Destination
Pick a destination to explore the private journeys we know best — or tell us where you're dreaming of and we'll design something new.
À la Carte
Already have your flights and hotel? We design standalone experiences — a single day, a private guide, a dinner reservation you can't get on your own. Same expertise, no package required.
A full or half day with a private guide — food tours, walking history, hidden gems, art deep-dives. You choose the city, we design the day.
Explore Day ToursLicensed, local, and genuinely passionate. Book a guide for a museum visit, a neighbourhood walk, or an entire city — by the hour or by the day.
Request a GuideEvery service comes with the same planning quality and local knowledge as our full tours. Mix and match, or let us put something together.

About Black Deer Travel
We're new, and we're tiny, and we like it that way. A handful of people who plan private trips for couples on anniversaries, families with young children, friends celebrating milestones, and anyone who wants a little more from their time away. Fewer trips, each one done properly.
Small team, big expertise, and no office: we work on the road, with AI doing the legwork so we can answer fast. Every itinerary is built around you: the rooms you'll sleep in, the guides who'll meet you, the meals you'll remember. Nothing about it is off-the-shelf.
A short conversation about who's traveling, when, and what kind of trip you're craving.
Rooms, guides, meals, transfers — every detail chosen by a specialist who's been there.
A real human on call 24/7 while you're on the road. No automated replies, ever.
Postcards From the Road
Once a month, a short letter from the team: a hidden village we just came back from, a chef we'd trust with any dinner, a window of perfect weather worth planning around. Unsubscribe anytime — we'd rather you stay because you want to.
Thank you. You're on the list — watch your inbox for the next postcard.
We'll never share your address. One email a month, maximum.
Ready When You Are
A few notes about your trip — when, who, what you love — and a travel specialist will reply within one business day with first ideas.
