A spectacular area to hike. The village of Sotres is small and friendly. The family hotel was welcoming and the food was consistently great. Juan was an interesting and engaged hiking guide. Overall a very good experience.

The island's breathtaking landscapes and diverse walking trails make it a paradise for nature enthusiasts and hikers. Each day was a new adventure, with outstanding walks that showcased Madeira's natural beauty, from lush forests to stunning coastal views. The itinerary allowed us to experience all that Madeira had to offer from off the beaten tracks to Funchal city.
What truly made this trip exceptional was our tour leader, Benny. He was fantastic at bringing our group together, creating a warm and friendly atmosphere that enhanced the entire experience. His knowledge and enthusiasm for the island were infectious, and he always made sure everyone was having a great time.
The weather was perfect throughout our stay, which only added to the enjoyment of exploring the island. Whether you're an avid hiker or just looking for a unique getaway, I wholeheartedly recommend a holiday in Madeira. It's an experience you won't forget!

The Dolomites are a beautiful part of the world and this trip didn't disappoint!!!
From airport pick up to drop off, I felt in safe hands.
Our hotel was perfectly placed near the centre of town and only a short distance from the bus station. Food at the hotel was delicious and we had 5 courses every night, just what you need to fuel a good hike!
Our walks gave us the opportunity to take in the stunning views of the mountains and lakes. Around every corner was another WOW!!!! We tackled a range of terrain from woodland and meadow to the rocky paths around the Tre Cime.
Nigel, our guide, was fab. He made sure we all got on and off buses, offered alternatives so people could tailor the walks to their ability and was very knowledgeable about the region & it's history. Best of all, he kept us entertained with myths & legends about dwarves, princesses and of course marmots!!!
Thanks Nigel & Explore! for a fantastic holiday!

A great week of walking with some challenges underfoot. Beautiful coastal views at times. Nebil was a consummate leader with great interpersonal skills, a good sense of humour and top notch care for his flock!
P.S. Excellent Mediterranean food on the way!

Greek Island Wanderer was just as described in the itinerary. Every day was fun packed and busy. The hikes we did were amazing but there was always an alternative if you didn't feel like hiking. The extra trips were fun
Our leader Christos, was amazing. He was knowledgeable and very helpful with any problem that arose.
This is a great way to explore the Greek Islands and I would highly recommend .

Fabulous trip, tweaked perfectly by Donal, who knows the area like the back of his hand. The accommodation was great, and having the trip be center based in the one convenient hotel was excellent. In early June, the wildflowers were in profusion, an added bonus to incredible mountain scenery. Uphill parts of walk manageable given a lot of tge mileawas contouring. Highly recommended!
