Balkans Solo Trips and Holidays

Did both South and North. South was little more challenging but duable. Long and some challenging hikes all worth it. Beautiful scenery and beaches. Accomodations were nice. Spiros was very passionate about his job and knowledgeable., also provided great support for me. Overall great experience.

We saw many sites, had three boat rides, and went to many places in a short period of time. The coastline of Gozo is spectacular. Our guide, Chantelle, taught us history, ancient and modern. She shared her country with us from a perspective of passion and knowledge. Our group dinners together were fun and we ate at wonderful restaurants at Chantelle's recommendation. I highly recommend this trip. Malta and Gozo are beautiful, deeply historical and varied in many so different ways. Coming from the US I arrived a few days early to get over the jet lag before the tour started. I recommend that as the days were full.

This tour was a perfect. It was the perfect itinerary to explore so many different parts of Italy. I got to see history and ancient architecture but then the very next day you are walking in trails and through vineyards with views you can only see on foot .. And then ending with amazing food, and regional wines and chocolate.. It was a perfect blend of culture, history and food.. with views that take your breath away.. every single day. There was enough down time to relax after day walks, use the pool, get some sun etc. whatever you fancy. I never felt over done or bored.. perfect blend.

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.

This trip was amazing - from the accommodation, to the food, to the hotel staff and guides to the huge abundance of wildlife we saw. The Masai Mara lived up to expectations, with the magical wildlife encounters - including watching a leopard drag her recent kill to a tree and seeing a cheetah carrying her tiny cub to an area of safety. Seeing so many lions also made me very happy! Tsavo had less easily seen wildlife, but staying at the wonderful Kipalo Hills more than compensated. What a wonderful place to relax and just enjoy the peace and quiet.

The tour leader was very knowledgable and we learned a great deal about the Baltic states culture and history. The day we spent exploring the Curonian Spit National Park in Lithuania was especially interesting. Witches hill with the wonderful wood carvings was amazing.
