Eastern Europe Trekking and Hiking Trips

Walking in Slovenia was my first trip with Explore and it did not disappoint. Slovenia is such a beautiful country and I feel the itinerary allowed us to see as much of it as we could in the 7 days. Our tour leader, Edoardo, was excellent. He shared he extensive knowledge of the area and its history. He had a good sense of humour and ensured we were always safe. He adapted the trip according to the weather as required. The pace of the tour was very good. The distances that we walked/hiked each day were very reasonable. The accommodation was top notch and we were treated very well by the staff at Hotel Kristal.

Hiking in The Dolomites was my first trip with Explore and exceeded all expectations. The organisation during the trip was faultless, with a clear itinerary for each day and transport tickets and packed lunches organised by our guide Jasmin. The group members were great, with people from all over the world and an age range of 19 to 70+. Our guide Jasmin was outstanding. I would definitely look at other trips she is guiding and consider booking. She looked after every one of us so well and you could tell that she was genuinely passionate about the areas we visited.

Loved my hiking trip in the Dolomites. Jasmine our guide was great. She adapted the itinerary to suit the weather forecast and managed the different needs of the group. The scenery is stunning, the walks were perfect. Travel was trouble free. Accommodation was good and the food was plentiful. Loved the village of Dobbiacco. Would recommend this trip

I've wanted to do this hike for so long and it really didn't disappoint. The days were long, steep and tough from the very first day to the last but the scenery was just stunning. I loved crossing from one country to the next, seeing the landscape change from alpine cliff to meadow, to glacial valley. It was beautiful. It is full on so get some hill training in but this really was beautiful.

A great trip. I had been most looking forward to achieving my first 6000m summit ( which I did 😊), but the trek itself was absolutely stunning. Fantastic coloured landscapes, very exciting river crossings, great array of alpine flowers (never seen so many eidelweiss in one place!), amazing food and crew. Would highly recommend this trip.

We opted to do this over hiking Mt Kilimanjaro. So glad we did. I loved the variety of the wildlife and the hiking. The terrain was excellent with a good amount of challenge. Clifford our guide was fabulous. He pointed out the wildlife, gave us interesting information on all sorts of things and led our walks managing a range of abilities and speeds. We loved the trip and had an awesome time. Would highly recommend it to anyone.
