Baltic Explorer Trips

Excellent travel experence,very well organised with a highly efficient knowledgeable and personable tour Leader ,Alex and two great drivers. We managed to visit the major cultural sites vast distances apart thanks to an internal flight and a speed train plus two long bus journeys. The food was good and the bread delicious. The people were so friendly. All in all a lovely holiday.

It was a fast-paced, whirlwind of sights. All the major attractions were covered well and the local tour guides were outstanding. The visit to the Vatican museum felt rushed, however. There was so much too see, but not enough time. A full day in the Vatican would have been better.

Fast paced but you see so much. Everything was great- travel director incredible. Esp liked Be My Guest experience. I think it was worth every penny-if you do this kind of trip on your own, you would see 1/4 of the things. Plus we had tickets to all the museums that are hard to get.

This was genuinely one of the best experiences of my life, and a huge amount of that comes down to how well Explore organised the whole thing. Pabel, our tour leader, was absolutely brilliant - knowledgeable, warm, and incredibly well-organised. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish, and you could tell the whole operation had been carefully thought through. The route Explore uses is particularly impressive - we managed to avoid the bulk of the crowds on the trail, which made the whole experience feel far more immersive and special than I'd expected. We were a small group of seven and that made such a difference. Everyone gelled immediately and we had so much fun together. The porters deserve a special mention: they were phenomenal, and the food on the trail was genuinely outstanding. They even baked a birthday cake at the highest elevation campsite, which tells you everything about the spirit of the team. The one thing that held me back from a perfect score was the main hotel in Cusco. The location is excellent, but my room was really noisy - you could hear the reception phone and conversations drifting in from the courtyard throughout the night. For a trip this good, it felt like an easy fix that would make an already brilliant experience flawless. Highly, highly recommend Explore for the Inca Trail. Already thinking about the next one.

Avery busy itinerary but well worth it!! We got to see many sights on our visit and enjoyed every one!! ************** was a wonderful tour director and Fabio was an amazing coach driver!

Amazing trip. Couldn’t have asked for a better travel director. We did the Ireland tour with trafalgar a few years back, and didn’t think it could get better than that. But this was even better, got to see so much in 1 week.
