Europe Natural landmarks sightseeing Trips

Portugal has given us memories that will last a lifetime. Dejan did an amazing job guiding us and was also able to give all the cyclists many chances to ride at their preferred speed. Pedro, our driver and a person who wore many hats, was a gift for all of us. From preparing amazing lunches with local foods to making sure we were hydrating, Pedro was an asset in every way. This will not be the last trip we take with Explore.

Wonderful scenery & an excellent tour leader who was friendly & approachable, with a variety of ideas on options to take on the rest day. Good variety of food options too.

The trip was fast paced, hit many of the highlights, had a wonderful travel director and driver. My gluten free diet was accommodated for with no issues. I loved travelling by bus, boat, funicular, train, etc.

This was a wonderful trip, your tour concierge, Anna, was terrific - very knowledgeable about the destinations and local tours, attentive to the group and each individual. On the whole, the locations and hotels were well-selected. I was disappointed that we didn't go to Sorrento and the Amalfi coast, however Capri was lovely. The hotel in Florence, while conveniently located and with lovely public areas, had poor guestroom accommodations for the level of this tour. We were disappointed that we could not experience Cinque Terra,, however, the Excelsior in Rapallo was exceptional and Anna did more to made up for the change in plans. A second night in the Excelsior and one less in Florence would be nice. In all a memorable trip!

The scenery was unique and striking, even on the way to Dobbiaco from Venice airport. Pinnacles, lakes and crags. Our leader Jasmine made the most of the weather to complete almost the whole programme as written, just sensibly adapting to the one wet day. The hotel gave us excellent breakfasts and dinners (especially for omnivores). On the free day Brunico proved attractive with a mountain people's museum in the castle. A couple of walks were busy, but not spoilt.

Zagreb to Dubrovnik is a fabulous way to see this stunning country. Plus our guide Petra made everything easy. The hotels were all excellent, the bus drivers skills were excellent. We would recommend Insight to anybody considering a tour.
