Balkans City sightseeing Trips

A very pleasant and enjoyable holiday with great accommodation, views ,walks and guides. Enrico our rep was fantastic. Friendly, funny and engaging. A brilliant ambassador for EXPLORE. Would have no hesitation in going with them again. Thank you.

I went on the Explore Jordan discovery trip with my mum and travelled with 11 other travellers making it a total of 13. We had Abdullah as our tour guide who was excellent and catered to all our needs throughout the trip. I was unfortunately ill during the middle of the trip but Abdullah made sure to help me with getting to a pharmacy when I needed to. The locations were all amazing - the highlights for me being Wadi Rum and seeing the sunset in the desert at a location picked by Abdullah. It definitely felt like being on another planet! Jordan is definitely safe to visit and I would encourage others to go as it was evident from the big fall in tourist numbers especially in key areas such as Petra. Jordan has such a variety to offer from ancient ruins to the desert and the sea - if any of these take your interest go book your trip to Jordan now!

Our excellent leader, Saleh, was really knowledgeable, organised, kind and considerate, as well as having a great sense of humour. The itinerary was so varied, some wonderful ancient sites including Jerash and Petra, then exploring Wadi Rum and an overnight stay in the desert. I'd recommend the boat trip and snorkelling in the Red Sea, it was amazing. Then floating in the Dead Sea before our return trip to Amman. The trip totally exceeded my expectations and not once did I feel unsafe. All the staff were friendly and helpful and our accommodation excellent. To top it all, I was lucky enough to share this trip with an amazing bunch of people. I'd 100% recommend Jordan and in particular, this adventure.

We had a wonderful holiday. Lots of great activities, from desert excursions to snorkelling in the Red Sea and camel riding. Everything was arranged perfectly, with the option to join the activities, or relax as you wish. I thoroughly recommend Jordan - a beautiful, safe and friendly country.

Nice overview of both countries and beautiful sites in several cities in Spain & Portugal. Vibrant city life & laid back country settings with olive trees, cattle & crops in the countryside. Busy itinerary with a fair amount of walking to see all.

Saw and experienced so many highlights, not only in the large cities, but also in small villages, such as a charming lunch in someone’s home. Was initially wary of the many optional excursions at additional cost, but they proved to be excellent opportunities and a good value. I don’t really feel that we missed much of what Spain and Portugal have to offer.
