Asia Active and outdoor Trips

One of the best holidays I have been on with Explore. The guide was excellent - it was a big group and he managed everyone incredibly well. He was very knowledgeable, attentive and very proud of his country. If anyone had a suggestion or something they wanted included, he would make it happen. It would be great if Explore could offer a wider range of activity holidays to Nepal. Perhaps a wildlife/cultural tour? I would highly recommend this tour.

This was a full on tour through Eastern Bhutan. There was stunning scenery, short hikes and beautiful temples. We visited the Black neck crane festival which was delightful and we were able to see returning cranes in the nearby valley. The hotels were all decent with plentiful food to suit all tastes.

Explore's Cycle Vietnam and Cambodia tour is the best way to see this part of the world. It's the perfect blend of travelling overland through this part of the world with a mix of transport: tuk-tuks, boats, bus and our own pedal power, to explore this part of the world and get up close to all that Vietnam and Cambodia have to offer. Cycling during the morning commute in town was a highlight, but so were the back lanes through smaller villages. Saying hello to everyone as you cycled by was a highlight! I'd recommend getting off the beaten path and the bonus of getting some cycling in means you can enjoy more of the fabulous food available in this part of the world. I would go back!

We had a great experience on this tour. Great group, brilliant itinerary and excellent guide Abdullah. We feel that we have seen the best of Jordan and benefitted from Abdullah’s insight. Having two full days in Petra meant that we could explore this immense site and reach some parts a bit more off the beaten track. Wadi Rum was another highlight. There are some long drives and the bus could have been a bit more spacious but that is a minor observation. We had a lot of fun along the way. Highly recommend this trip.

The Team Leader was excellent in all respects from communication, knowledge and interaction with everyone on the cycling holiday, thus ensuring that a great time was had by all. In fact all members of Binh's team went above and beyond the call of duty making the whole experience very enjoyable and rewarding. Thank you Binh!
