East Asia Walking Trips

Overall and excellent trip with a diverse group of 10 travellers. We thoroughly enjoyed this tour especially the boat trip to Rinko and Komodo islands. Flores is under development and extremely rural with glorious verdant vegetation and stunning landscapes. A real ‘away from it all’ destination. Bali was very busy with dreadful traffic, however the area this tour goes to offered some tranquility from the hubbub. The boat trip exceeded expectations, was very comfortable with great friendly service. Despite being told we would have a shared multi-berth cabin, we had our own with bathrooms! To finish at the beach in Jimbaran was a great way to relax and restore our energy before the long journey home. Tip: massages are excellent and very cheap!! Highlight: Komodo dragons, snorkelling on pink beach -fabulous!

I thoroughly enjoyed this trip. I experienced the Amalfi Coast in a much more intimate setting yet seeing much much more of the coast than I ever anticipated, thanks to our excellent and caring guide, Gennaro. The hikes were challenging but Gennaro was excellent in helping me to adjust to the pace that I needed. The views everyday were well worth the amount of steps I had to climb. The hotel staff was excellent and nice to have a quiet town to return to each evening away from the large tourist crowds in each town.

This was a fantastic holiday. The Amalfi coast is beautiful and fascinating! Our tour leader, Gennaro, was very knowledgeable and full of enthusiasm about the area and was a pleasure to spend time with. The hotel was lovely and the family who run it were very friendly and helpful.

Highlight was obviously seeing the dragons on Rinca and Komodo islands. Our guide, Peter, was exceptional, well organised and available. We were lucky to have a small group on the boat, a full group would be very crowded. Worth staying another day at the end.

Gaia, was an amazing guide!! Very knowledgeable and informative, very upbeat and funny, she was a breath of fresh air, I looked forward to daily hikes and what the day entails, she had a great attitude to get all of the best out of all the hiker’s every day. She is treasure for the Explore travel team. Thanks for a wonderful visit to one of the most amazing places in the world.

A superb location and some stunning scenery on the walks. Our guide Gaia was fun and informative and made sure that all the group enjoyed the holiday. She was great. If you have difficulty with steps this is not the holiday for you !
