Northern Europe Active outdoor Trips

The Explore web page opens up with a statement “An adventure holiday company you can trust.” and this holiday proved that. Due to the extreme rain before we arrived the tour itinerary had to be changed. The new itinerary was just as good and our plans changed on a daily basis due to circumstances and events. Thankyou Explore, you gave me the opportunity to have a holiday of a lifetime. Thankyou fellow travellers, your company was amazing and we had so much fun and many laughs on the trip. Thankyou Bibi, as a tour guide you were brilliant, sorting unexpected events on a daily basis whilst ensuring we had an amazing wildlife experience. At our final group meal we sat around the table and discussed the holiday. Non of expected a holiday like we had just experienced and agreed our trip had been a proper adventure from start to finish! My holiday summary. Proper adventure! So much fun! Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant!

Our Guide Allen was outstanding for help and knowledge of his lovely country. Our driver was so helpful and would go the extra kilometre for us. The wildlife was wonderful.

Anna was amazing. Highly professional and really helpful and cheerful throughout. She made everything easy for us. It’s a really varied itinerary - the archaeological sites are amazing of course but there’s so much else to see as well.

The trip was a memorable experience led by a fantastic guide . We covered a huge area and at times the walking uphill was quite challenging however the views were well worth the effort. Our guide was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and patient and local guides were also great. Our group was mixed ages and nationalities but we all gelled together with a common interest in the country. Already planning to do another trip

Lenora ranks among the best guides I have ever come across. Informative, caring, organised, efficient and friendly - its hard to get all those qualities in one person. Her deep knowledge of the social and architectural history of each area was immense, as was her familiarity with restuarants, shops and places of interest. In short- she was brilliant and a tour leader to trust and listen to.

Great itinerary in a beautiful country. Our guide, Ruslan, was friendly informative and entertaining. The recommendations for places to eat and visit were all good value. This was my first time on a guided tour and I loved having logistics and luggage managed. The people in the group were all very different and all very lovely! There was a good balance of free and directed time. Standards of accommodation and transport were great. Will definitely book another trip!
