North America Tours in November 2026

The New England islands were very beautiful with fall foliage - Newport , Martha vineyards , Nantucket , Plymouth - I learned a lot about history & beautiful mansions . Seafood restaurants and lobster meals are excellent . Moriah the tour director was very patient , knowledgeable , detail oriented and made the tour very memorable . The bus driver was excellent . I’m very happy with the tour . The only downside was the tour was at the end of the season so most shops are closed but I had a great time . Thank you Colette for a wonderful time and memory .

The most amazing trip across the states where I truly feel like I have lived and seen SO much for the time we spent! This trip is jam packed with a busy agenda including lots of moving about, activities and optional extras, it's exactly what I wanted. Thank you to our legendary tour guide for keeping the energy sky high throughout and to a lovely group of people to have shared it with. :-)

I had a fantastic time on this trip. The itinerary was well-planned and the locations were stunning. A special mention to our tour leader, who was excellent; very approachable and professional. He really helped the group bond and made the experience seamless

The trip was absolutely amazing!! The diversity of all the states across the south was exactly what I was looking for. I really liked finishing around the national parks as well, I feel like it was a great way to wind down from the trip. Some suggestions would be: - 2 nights in Las Vegas instead of 1 - the New Orleans swamp alligator tour to be shorter, or maybe more interactive. - Some of the lunch/shop stops could have been shorter so we have more time in the places we were staying. That being said, it was still a fantastic trip that so would recommend to anyone! Thanks 🤩

The trip was as described in the brochure and was an excellent introduction to the food of Mexico and some of the archaeological sites. The guide Yves was extremely knowledgeable and a great story teller. His local knowledge was invaluable in spotting opportunities as they arose, and also in solving any difficulties. We were a group of 15 with a driver and a guide and were originally put in an 18 seater minibus. As some of the driving days were many hours long, we requested a larger and more comfortable bus and this was arranged. As some of the trips turned out to be even longer than planned, due to roadworks and unavoidable detours, this was an essential upgrade. One of the hotels, rated as premium, had, unbeknownst to either Explore or the local tour operator, had moved us to a much more basic accommodation. It was disappointing but Explore dealt with it in a very timely manner by refunding the cost of the two nights. Mistakes do happen but dealing with them is the mark of a good company. The group was mixed with some couples and some singles. I travelled on my own but there was always company for meals if I wanted it.

Tour was informative and fun. Wesley was a great guide. He was knowledgable, personable, and very well organized. All the Collette meals were delicious and the accommodations were excellent. The Cambria in Savannah lacked the same charm as the Emmaline and the Jekyll Hotel but it was okay.
