Ireland and Italy Tours and Trips

Superb tour, Antonio was the best leader I have had in now 9 Explore trips worldwide, which is a high bar indeed. He effortlessly delivered the right amount of background information for an island with a hugely complex history, thoroughly professional in all he did. His lectures were interesting and well pitched. Accomodation standard and location was excellent, as was the itinerary and pace of the trip. Some of the island's gems were jaw dropping in their magnificence. The group ran like clockwork and everyone enjoyed the trip enormously. I would love to go back, and this was my second trip to Sicily with Explore. Well done Explore!

Very interesting cycling and sightseeing tour of Puglia The cycling was fabulous and as described in tour information. bikes were good quality and some had electric bikes The hotels and and places we stayed were great and varied. Our tour guide was brilliant. On a day of heavy rain when cycling was cancelled he managed to sort out a minibus for our transfer by 11am and then a place for lunch all on the day. Thanks Massimo a great trip!

So many wonderful, memorable experiences were packed into this 10 day trip. Plan on walking 10,000+ steps each day except long travel days. Loved the optional experience dinners; well worth the extra cost.

This trip requires hustle and as long as the clients are anticipating a fast pace, early morning, long bus rides and late nights (getting to your hotel as late as 10:30pm) then they will experience one of the best trips of a lifetime.

It was a lot of nonstop walking.. Also did not have enough to do shopping. It was very well organized and Laura did an excellent job. She was forthcoming in helping us orchestrate the entire trip.

Excellent tour of Italy. Such a beautiful country! Our tour guide and driver were excellent as well. WE were very happy with our accommodations. We covered about 3200 kms. and visited many great cities, town, and villages. We liked the culture, food, and scenery. The Italian people are very gracious and happy to see visitors.
