Excellent tour with plenty of variety - fascinating cities, wild mountains, and intriguing culture and history. Rifa, our guide, was efficient and knowledgeable, taking care that everyone got the best experience. Transport arrangement throughout were first rate: clean and with generous seating which provided window seats for all.
The inclusion of Turkmenistan in this tour is questionable: Costly entry requirements, yet we were unable to see much beyond the superficial show of Ashgabat.

Excellent trip. The last trip I did with Explore was 30 years ago. I am recently retired and decided to join a small walking group . Used Explore again and was not disappointed. Excellent team in London. Guide professional, knowledgable , super safety conscious and sociable as I would have expected. Walking terrain in Crete is quite challenging but thanks to our guide we all managed to complete our hikes. Great group of people too!

This is an excellent trip. The countryside is varied, the cycling is relatively easy and the bikes good. The Vietnamese people are friendly and the food delicious. Our guide Binh was very knowledgeable and looked after us exceptionally well. He really made the trip.

Einar was the best tour guide I have ever had and an excellent ambassador for Iceland. His enthusiasm and tremendous knowledge of the geography and cultural history really added to the tour.

Far ranging busy trip. Halong bay cruise with luxury accommodation and food was a particular highlight. Train trip overnight was interesting but would not rush to repeat. Overall great trip in a special country. Meals were excellent and excellent value. Our guide ran everything smoothly and we had very pleasant and interesting companions.

The Egypt and Red Sea tour was an excellent way to see and learn about Egypt. The guide (Mariam) was extremely knowledgeable and catered for everyone’s needs. The Red Sea extension was the perfect way to relax after a busy tour.

Great trip but with long bumpy off road drives. Accommodation in Gers the first week was very basic, Gers having big gaps for cold air and small animals to enter. Some of the shared showers only had cold water. I slept in my coat a couple of nights in the mountains as only 5 degrees and too cold to face a tepid shower. Food however was a surprise being a non red meat eater, the alternative was chicken with lots of fresh salads, vegetables and some fruits.
Our guide Sara was nice but lacked the skills for a large group. I had no complaints but some of the group had issues which were resolved and avoided at the next stop. Some mis information was given, so we were a little confused.
We managed to arrange with Sara and Explore a trip to the Genghis Khan statue and museum at an extra cost the last day which was worth the detour.
Camel riding in the Gobi was fun and for half hour we paid around £5.

Enjoyed my walking tour of Vietnam. So much variety and fun and no worries at all. So many extra excursions and insights. I would say the walking is not difficult at all. It would suit any level of fitness. The leader really looked after the group. Great if you’re a single man or women who loves to travel. I can’t wait for another tour.

Although I booked this trip with little or no expectations, I have to state from the start that this was a tough trek for me and my wife.
I should state here that the satisfaction of reaching the peak, individually and part of the group of fifteen that set off from basecamp, with an excellent leader and assistants, surpasses all the challenges that we encountered during the week.
So some of my observations on the itinerary. The distances and elevations documented felt to me underestimated, even though they may have been accurate, the walking day was longer and more challenging than in the itinerary. I should add that the difficulty was maybe by design to ready you for the assault on the Toubkal summit.
Some of the guest houses are very basic, so if you travel as a couple, don't expect to be accommodated together at night.
The camping at basecamp was surprisingly comfortable, and the food prepared by the chef and his team was excellent throughout the trip. However, you must prepare yourself for the prospect of a communal hole in the ground for daily ablutions.
Overall, the trip is definitely one I will never forget, and as I said above, the satisfaction gained from achieving the summit, and looking out over the vast Atlas range, was breathtaking. Not to be underestimate, but if your leaders and camaraderie of the group is the same as ours, Toubkal summit will live long in the memory.
