Try the lifestyle before you make the move.

Before you arrive

A few questions,
answered.

How long is a discovery tour?

Tours typically run over five days, giving you time to explore neighbourhoods and the local lifestyle without rushing. We discuss the programme around your interests and availability.

Can I arrange a private tour?

Yes. Tours can be private and personalised, or part of a small group of up to eight people. Couples, families and solo travellers are welcome.

Do I need to be ready to buy?

No immediate purchase is required. Discovery tours are for people genuinely considering a move or investment who want a clearer understanding of the places and possibilities before deciding.

When do tours take place?

Tours generally take place outside the busiest summer months, when availability and conditions are better suited to exploring. Some visits involve walking, so you should be comfortable being on your feet for two to three hours at a time.

What happens after the tour?

You can come back to us with follow-up questions, continue with our Property Search service, and be introduced to legal and financial specialists as your plans take shape.
