Baltic Tours in March 2027

An incredible trip from start to finish. Excellent balance of cycling, sight seeing, city experiences and local culture. The local team were fantastic I cannot recommend this trip more highly.

Dave was a truly excellent guide. The hotel was good but now with so, so many hiking tourists the breakfast period was totally over run making it difficult to fit in prep for hiking with grocery purchases for lunch.

What an amazing trip! A good balance between winter activities and down time. Managed to use the hotel sauna every afternoon which was great and super relaxing. The weather was perfect and we saw the spectacular Northern Lights 3 nights out of 5. When we didn’t see them, we just didn’t go out to look for them :) The food in Finland is delicious and the local guides, restaurant and hotel staff are very helpful, kind and caring. Highly recommend this trip! Thank you, Explore, for organizing such a fab adventure!

Really enjoyed Tavira and its culture, cuisine, the hotel and people. Holiday was fun - a nice, mixed group of 16 people. Great walks every day which were varied and included salt pans & flamingos, hills and olive, carob, almond and orange groves, through beautiful countryside and stopping for refreshments/lunch/ or to eat our picnic. Fascinating seaside town with fish markets and beautiful houses, and a very easy - going good guide.

This trip was everything we wanted it to be. The trip pace was full-on but it had to be to include an amazing variety of experiences. It was tiring at times but visiting such interesting places and doing such interesting things made up for the early starts and sometimes long days. The quality of our guides were outstanding, especially Theo looked after our every need as well as enriching us with his knowledge of everywhere we went. He should be nominated for tour guide of the year! Visiting Vietnam and Cambodia was a real assault on all the senses and at times we needed to go with the flow, especially on the overnight train journey, which everyone in our group was prepared to do. If you're after an experience outside of your comfort zone, of culture, history, cuisine, religion and the everyday life of local people, this is the trip for you.

The guide can make or break a trip irrespective of the itinerary and Tom Fallen was one of the best we’ve had. He went above and beyond the base itinerary and his love of Japan, its culture, and its food was infectious.
