There are websites like www.viator.com , www.isango.com or www.expedia.com which will enable you to purchase tickets to tours and attractions. Viator by far is the largest of them all and they come up with deals every now and then, so it makes sense to subscribe to their newsletter. You should also search for websites of individual tour operators who offer tour packages. e.g. in Italy, we got an excellent package deal from a company called Art Viva. The package included guided tours of small groups of 8 to 10 tourists (unlike most companies who will shepherding an entire bus load)
