      I am interested in taking this tour but wish to know how many others are booked thus far.

    • Insight VacationsOperatorWritten July 2022

      Our groups max out at 40. This date for Best of Germany is definite (meaning at least half full) and on request. That indicates it is close to being full and will take 3-4 days to confirm the space with our operations team once you are ready to book.
