Mediterranean Wildlife Trips

We thoroughly enjoyed our cycling holiday in Romania. The tour was fully in line with the sales pitch on the Explore website. We really got to discover the country: sleepy rural villages, to historic fortified town, sweeping landscapes, rugged mountains. Our guide, Raz, was full of knowledge about history, culture, religion and nature, and throughout the trip helped us to pull together a rich insight into the country of Romania. The cycling was good fun. The accomodation was comfortable (the odd dog barking at night, but given that we were in the countryside to be expected).

This was an experience of a lifetime! I cannot recommend this trip enough. If you want to go wild camping in the African bush where you can completely disconnect from every day life and get back in touch with nature, then don't hesitate to book this trip. You will be surrounded by wild animals, bird sounds and highly experienced staff.

It. Was wonderful from start to finish. Hotels -excellent and it would have been even better to have a second day with the option of half-day relaxing by the pool r taking a guided nature walk. Food- very delicious and more than enough at each meal. We learned something new daily, be it about culture, history, animals of the area. We had options a few times, and we had safe guided safari rides every day. Our guides were responsive to all requests. Our group was small and we all brought bedding well which enhanced the trip.

I missed my connecting flight to Windhoek and both local tour company and Explore main office reassured me I’d be looked after which I was. The tour guide and driver was a knowledgeable, capable and really lovely person. She absolutely made this trip unforgettable- her recommendations for our day off in Walvis Bay ( whale watching and 4x4 sand dune trip) were spot on and I’d recommend anyone to do these. The itinerary is full on but you don’t go all that way to sit beside a pool. Everyone who followed my trip were blown away by the diversity and quality of my videos and photos (all of which were taken on an IPhone 16). A small group of 10 was ideal - all like minded people with a sense of adventure.

A dream come true. Two fantastic weeks of pure adventure. Beautiful sights, nice accomodations, exotic animals everywhere, tasty food, bumpy roads, friendly people, nice weather, dusty scenery, a couple of flat tires, majestic trees, good transportation, experienced drivers, etc. Every day is a new beginning.

Wonderful scenery & an excellent tour leader who was friendly & approachable, with a variety of ideas on options to take on the rest day. Good variety of food options too.
