Asia Tours and Trips

Great trip from beginning to end. Everything was as per the itinerary and superbly led by our tour leader G with a special mention to our driver Shiv who’s driving skills on the crazy Indian roads ensured we reached our destinations safely.

An excellent and very full on trip (nov 25). Temperature was high teens / low twenties which allowed lots to be done... not sure the itinerary (especially exploring the Petra site) would have been as doable or as enjoyable in high summer.

Raj was just brilliant. He looked after us and took care of all needs not just for when we were with the group, but those who had onward travels. He checked on our onward train travel from Delhi to Mumbai to make sure everything was in place before he left us. He went over and above his remit to just looking after the group.

We have done many trips with Explore and this was another fantastic trip around Kerala, the Western Ghats and Goa with a brilliant guide, great group of people and amazing experiences.

The inclusion of the program gave me an objective opportunity to feel and immerse in the culture. Ashish, the leader of articulation, culture, was leading for the 2 weeks; consistency, energy; exceptional. Ashish, enlivened the energy of the tour group. The energy, stimulation, openness of the tour group and Ashish; crossing borders and boundaries in formed and open cultural beliefs; attitudes were electric to recharge, openness of seeing new perspectives. This tour was a 10 in awakening, exposure. In gratitude privileged for the opportunity.

A great all rounded trip. Our guide was v accommodating and happy to please. She gave us plenty of stops for snacks and coffee. She explained not all meals come at once in a group, nor starters. Food was good and cheap and well catered for vegetarians etc. Accommodation was good overall. Would have liked one less night in the jungle and an extra night at the Dolphin Bay resort to use the facilities. Great to have water provided at every hotel and a kettle. Lots of optional activities on this trip which add to the price but all v good. Expect some trips to be v busy in the touristy areas. Well recommended.
