The itinerary offered a good variety of walks and the tour leader Burt was interesting and entertaining with a lot of local knowledge. La Gomera is a lovely place, much more authentic than the busy resorts on many of the other Canary islands
Lisa | Traveled in December
Great itinerary with plenty of exposure to local food and wine. The hosted lunches were fantastic! Our guide Ana made this an incredible trip. She kept us informed, gave us history without over talking and always had coins for the WC. My fourth Explore trip, and each has been amazing.

It was the Best trip of my life! Every day we had new and exciting excursions. We he local guides as well as our tour manager Daniel Boghen were exceptional! I learned so many interesting things about history. I was fascinated with the history!

Had an absolutely fabulous time. Austria was so beautiful, it was hard to take it all in. My friends and I had so much fun walking through the Christmas Markets in Innsbruck and sampling the delicious gluhwein and other hot drinks offered. We saw Krampus on more than one occasion - very exciting! I loved that we stayed in the same hotel for five nights. Not having to have our luggage out every other day at 7 AM made for an easier adjustment to the time change. Our hotel was very comfortable and we enjoyed a wonderful breakfast buffet every morning. I couldn’t recommend this trip more.

The whole trip was amazing, the people and staff had great energy and enthusiasm throughout the whole trip. I was blown away with how much historical knowledge the trip manager had and how easy it was to learn.
Patricia F. | Traveled in December
The towns we stopped in were great. The Christmas markets were fabulous and did not disappoint. We walked a lot and I was a little concerned having had both knees replaced in the last year, but it was great. I had no problems. The tour guide was great, very knowledgeable. Our local guides were great, very knowledgeable and you could tell they loved their country. The staff on the boat was so accommodating and the food was very good. I would definitely recommend this trip.
