This tour involved many great walks to experience the spectacular scenery, flora and fauna of New Zealand. Our minibus was comfortable for travelling in but it was also fun to use various types of water transportation. Our guide, Robbie, did a wonderful job of driving and guiding. He was always energetic, cheerful, patient and attentive to any needs. My fellow travellers were fun and supportive also! A great trip!

The experience of cycling in Albania was very interesting as far as seeing different parts of the country, interacting with Albanian people, learning about the culture and history and cycling through forests and fields and down to the beaches.
The cycling itself was quite hard in terms of the hills, but because of the bikes/gears it was very attainable. We were able to stop and rest, as necessary and always had support and encouragement from our guide and the van.

Brilliant trip with a fabulous group leader (Riaan) Loads to see and experience covering 2,000 miles but no individual journey seemed too long. Great food much of it included in the holiday price.

Really enjoyed the variety of things to see and do.
Galapagos Islands were amazing and pleased to see that they are trying hard to protect the local environment and native animals and educate the next generation.
Loved the giant tortoises and the way local rangers are protecting them from extinction from hand rearing eggs to releasing them when they are older.
Blue footed Boobies were a highlight of mine to see, only wish I had seen the red footed boobies as well.
The visit to the rose farm was an eye opener as I hadn't realised that Ecuador was such a productive place for roses and exportation, the employees all looked happy and relaxed.
Interesting visit to Condor sanctuary and the way they are rehabilitating injured birds and introducing them into the countryside.

The hotels were amazing but the trip was so full on there was no time to appreciate them. Also 18 Wats in 3 days was too much. Tour Guide very knowledgeable and fun. Really enjoyed it all but I think it could have been broken up a bit better, not so many long days and a break from WATs. I would recommend

I had done one trip previously – Amalfi coast hiking, fall 2023 – with EXPLORE. I was so impressed I asked my excellent guide, Pete, what else he would recommend knowing my abilities and interests. He immediately recommended the Slovenia trip, and it actually was on my list of places to visit. He had apparently set the trip up about seven years ago and was very familiar with it.
I have been in 50 countries to date - some several times- and Slovenia is now in my top five and I am already planning my return for next May.
We had a lovely small group, being the first of these hikes of the season, hailing from Canada, Spain, Australia, and the UK.
The accommodation, staff, management, and food at Art Hotel Kristal were A+ – and I especially loved and took advantage of the options of the sauna and cold plunge, Ayurvedic massages with the wonderful Bhatri, chocolate tasting with the owner, Alenka, and a fantastic wine tasting with her son, Jan. I went home with a lovely assortment of chocolates and also a wonderful bottle of wine that I will try to hold onto for a few years until it is optimal to drink.
The hikes were not difficult at all, but I found that I did feel like I got a good amount of exercise by the end of the day. I spent my free day doing a mountain bike ride. The whole area around Lake Bohinj is stunning and there are so many activities that one can partake in, as well as really yummy local restaurants close by the hotel. I loved that the hotel offered a pre-fixe three course menu for hotel guests for only €25 on the nights that were not included with the hike. An incredible bargain given the quality of the food, as with almost all of the food we had in Slovenia, it was locally sourced and delicious. I am not typically a meat eater, but I had the venison twice – locally sourced, and wild – and it was by far the best I have ever had.
I would definitely stay at this hotel when I return to the area. I would strongly encourage others to spend some time in Ljubljana – either before or after the trip. A beautiful city a two hour bus ride awaythat is just the right size and full of so much to offer. Next time I am going to see a lot more of this country – it is half the size of Switzerland, but the variety of the terrain and ecosystems is quite impressive. Also, to be noted is that English is widely spoken and children start in grade 3, learning this second language. The Slovenians couldn’t have been nicer and more helpful everywhere I went. What can I say?? Get yourself to Slovenia before it is overrun: safe, clean, and green – a beautiful country of farmers, foragers, wine makers, and beekeepers. Also note that they have some fantastic fly fishing there as well as mountain and road biking – very cycling friendly. After all, it is the country of Pogacar.

What a great trip, with the highlights being Rainbow mountain, Lake Titicaca and the best of all, hiking the Inca trail to Machu Picchu. I feel I have really been able to delve into Peru and now know much more about the country, the people and their cultural beliefs. The trip was very well organised, supported by our excellent guide Julio. Julio was so knowledgeable on all aspects of Peru and shared so many interesting facts about the local areas we visited. The trip ran very smoothly and we felt safe and well looked after through out. Nothing was too much trouble and I felt Julio went above and beyond with his insightful information and organisation, such as booking us great restaurants and the archeological sites we toured.
The Peruvian food was amazing, so colourful, tasty and well presented. All the accommodations were clean and in good areas. The porter team supporting our Inca trek were amazing, friendly, efficient and the service and food they provided was very good.

This was a brilliant tour with a comprehensive itinerary. It appealed to me and my husband for the historical content and our guide Oz was very helpful and knowledgeable with this. There are some long days of travel but the scenery is always interesting and they were well broken up with breaks. We felt completely confidant with both Oz for organisational aspects and our driver Omar who was excellent, driving safely and always cheerful and smiling. The accommodation was comfortable and generally teh food good. The final plus was the lovely group of people on this tour.
