We requested a customized combination of PUGLIA COASTAL WALK and WALKING IN PUGLIA in one trip and that was superbly done by Nicola and Chris! It turned out a very pleasant tour and we would strongly recommend to create a permanent itinerary. We enjoyed every minute of being in Puglia and every kilometer walking in Puglia. That was unforgettable. Choices of accommodations were exceptional with excellent and unique amenities and great supportive staff. Route Notes and GPX tracks made us very comfortable in finding the right way and seeing the right attractions and natural wonders. Chris' support and advice were invaluable. Overall we were very satisfied with this trip.

5/5. Using this service for your upcoming trip to Italy is highly recommended! The entire procedure went quite well. The drivers, guides, and tours they arranged for us were all wonderful, helpful. All of our questions received prompt responses from Sinan and Alex. I couldn't imagine returning to Italy without making use of this tour company once more! We had an amazing time!

This was a wonderful break. You stay at a number of very beautiful places: Scapello, Marettimo and San Vito La Capo. The walking is enjoyable but not too challenging. There are many opportunities to enjoy the food and culture of this part of Sicily; for example the town of Erice and the ancient site of Segasta. We also had a chance to spend an evening in Trapani and i would really recommend this too. I hadnt done self-guided walking before but really enjoyed it.
We went in April and the weather was super. Not too hot so perfect for walking and little rain.
It was a wonderful introduction to Europe. It was fast paced, but very organised by our experienced travel director . Everyone onboard had a great time. Thoroughly recommend 👌

My wife Katie and I had a trip of a lifetime with this tour! The detailed planning and execution of Explore's itinerary on the Amalfi coast results in a superb vacation experience.
We were thoughtfully guided and cared for by our expert guide Satva, who taught us so much about the area. She also did a wonderful job of coordinating numerous details, carefully pacing our hikes to accommodate everyone in the group, and getting to know everyone personally. We felt like one big family by the end of the week!
It's difficult to pull out highlights of the trip when everything was so amazing, but I'll try to summarize a Top 10 here:
1. The family-run hotel in St. Lazzaro is very welcoming and charming.
2. Also, their pizza is world-class, and we took part in a pizza-making lecture that was very informative and personal.
3. Hiking through fields of herbs, where you can smell rosemary, thyme, basil, oregano, and others just growing in the wild!
4. The ferry to and from Capri, and the day spent there. Stunning!
5. Swimming in the Tyrrhenian Sea on the main beach of Positano.
6. Enjoying lemon or Aperol spritzes and snacks during our daily aperitivi.
7. Hiking the Path of the Gods.
8. The pasta and mozzarella making class at a small local farm!
9. The day trip to Pompeii and Herculaneum.
10. Meeting other hikers from the US, UK, and Canada and hearing their stories.
We are looking forward to traveling with Explore again soon and can't recommend them enough!
