East Africa Honeymoon Trips

Wow! Jordan is a must visit place, and that combined with an amazing guide in Salah just makes it extra special. This tour combines visiting some must see places with some scenic walks. The walks can be tough with walking on soft sand and also some large ascents/descents. They are worth it though! We had a small tour party of 7 which meant those who had paid the single supplement had their own tents at the camp sites. We even had a light and a electric socket in our tents. On occasions, there were clear skies at night with plenty of stars to look at. We also had some great sun sets. I've been to Pompeii but Jerash is another level of remains! Don't forget to get the Dead Sea mud applied. So much fun. There were early starts on most days, and the last day was particularly long but very worthwhile. Jordan is a friendly country and we felt completely safe. All the staff we met were very good with the main guide, Salah, was brilliant.

Absolutely brilliant holiday. Awesome hiking through Wadi Rum desert and Petra, gorgeous Bedouin camping experience, itinerary just right. The company makes it of course, and this was a great group led by a considerate, professional, experienced and entertaining guide named Saleh. Would highly recommend!

Our leader, Arturo, in a word was... fantastic! He managed his herd of 12 client cyclists in a manner that was fun, patient, gracious and ALWAYS with a smile. And he was an excellent communicator at all times. Our bus drivers were also great and worked very hard with long days. The newer hybrid 21-speed bikes were surprisingly ideal for the cycling - quite enjoyable. Also surprising was the quality of the road surfaces we were on. Generally in very good shape with little traffic. Although they were often very straight and generally flat, the jungle would frequently open up to nicer vistas and give us slices of friendly Mexican rural life. The trip was further enhanced by the quality of the many cultural & archeological tours. Through his excellent connections and experience, Arturo snagged amazing English speaking guides that provided detailed interesting commentary that brought insight to the sites we visited - it would be difficult to get those experiences traveling on your own. Our beginning of February tour was often windy during the rides and had temperatures that were cooler than normal, especially in the evenings. Still lovely though. During our last day of cycling it was warm but suddenly started to rain. Hard! We got thoroughly soaked. But we still enjoyed the experience and laughed at the situation while riding. Most in our group thought it was the best day of cycling in the tour. Every day was jam packed with the bus rides, cycling, eating, and touring the cultural experiences. Very busy so there wasn't a lot of downtime, especially as some activities took longer than planned for. After the tour, many in the group stayed days or weeks longer in the region to enjoy sunshine and relaxation. In summary, I highly recommend this trip. The Yucatan is a beautiful area with so much history. The cycling was enjoyable, but likely too easy for more serious cyclists expecting great workouts. Maybe we were just lucky as our group really gelled and had a lot of laughs. Super fun!

Loved it! A fantastic tour with a good mixture of cycling, sightseeing and culture as well as sampling culinary delights. Each day was full of activities and education. Arturo was an amazing guide - very friendly, patient and a great leader. Our drivers Lugo and Jose were also great. Such a fun and memorable trip with a great multinational group.

This was my first Explore trip, my first holiday in Mexico, and my first organised cycling holiday. It was fantastic. We had a great group of people and our local leader & driver were excellent. So many highlights, I wish the holiday had lasted longer. We visited places that I wouldn't have seen if I'd organised the holiday myself. The busy schedule was so well organised by the Explore team that I didn't have to worry about the details and I could just enjoy myself. I want to go back asap!

A wonderful place to go and a full itinerary made sure we saw the best of it. Explore made sure everything went well, and I would have no hesitation in using them again. A top trip.
