East Africa Walking Tour Reviews
Real traveler feedback from Walking tours across East Africa
Mark | Traveled in December
This trip works well. Tenerife has lots of flights and so is very accessible. The ferry to La Gomera takes you away from mass tourism, and the island itself is varied and attractive. We had a great trip with varied walks and some nice meals out in the evening. The group got on well and the group leader/guide was excellent. An added bonus was the transatlantic rowing competition from La Gomera to Anguilla was taking place the following week so we had the opportunity to meet participants.
Catherine | Traveled in December
La Gomera is a quiet and very scenic island. Walks were often challenging with quite a few steep and rocky downhill paths, but some of the scenery was stunning. Very knowledgeable and helpful guide.
Helen | Traveled in December
I've worked in the adventure tourism industry for three decades and know a little bit about the industry. This itinerary was absolutely spot on and suited everyone in the group. Our guide was however the reason the trip was so fantastic. Joao Camara's was born in Funchal and his local knowledge regarding the islands geography, fauna, history etc was amazing. Having worked in tourism in other countries his professional, informative and amusing approach was brilliant. I will definitely be back in Madeira that's for sure
Jill | Traveled in December
This was a fabulous trip. La Gomera is very quiet compared to other islands in the Canaries. The walking is fabulous with great scenery but be prepared for a fair amount of downhill. We requested that the optional walk be reversed to be predominantly uphill and it was so much better. The hotel was very comfortable with good breakfasts. By choice, we ate out as a group each evening and ate well at a variety of restaurants very close to the hotel. Our tour leader, Raquel, was exceptionally good, as I have come to expect with Explore. This was my 16th trip with Explore and it was as good as always.
Anonymous | Traveled in December
Well organised, thoughtfully managed, great days out walking and seeing all around the island. We had fantastic weather, could hike every day, and through our guide Joao, Madeiran born and proud of his home, learnt about the history, flora and fauna of Madeira. Everything from hotels, transport, daily itinerary, food and meals in the evening made the experience fun and memorable. I’ll be going back in the Spring when the wildflowers bloom. Very good value and an excellent hiking trip.
Dana C. | Traveled in December
The itinerary was great - loved spending 2 nights at most hotels! Felt like I got a great feel of several different regions of Itally. We had 6 family members traveling together and we all felt like it was a great trip. There were only 27 people in our tour group which was wonderful! Highly recommend this trip!
