South Asia Rafting Tour Reviews
Real traveler feedback from Rafting tours across South Asia
Alan B. | Traveled in November
Cham was an excellent guide, with a great knowledge of history, culture and nature. The activities were all very good, particularly the white water rafting. A couple of quite long days though
KB | Traveled in November
This really is a full and active trip. Cycling gave an ‘up close’ experience and the water based activities were all great fun. The food in the local places that we ate was superb although the food in the larger hotels was less interesting. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and as a female travelling alone I felt completely safe throughout. I’ve come home feeling that I have experienced Sri Lanka at its best and the people are so friendly and welcoming. Early mornings, long days and activity were central to this ‘holiday’ but if you’re up for that then you’ll have a fabulous time.

Best explore trip ever, with best guide ever. The mix of activity and visits could not have been better balanced. Full on without being exhausting. I personally would have liked more time at the mountain museum but appreciate others might not. Our guide, Udaya, did his utmost to accommodate those that found the walking a challenge, (even though the trip notes clearly described what to expect). Udaya’s knowledge, enthusiasm and clear love of his country enhanced the trip, even on the long bus journeys there was regular commentary on what we were seeing and short stops of interest. He had concern for our welfare and even joined in with us in a hotel Christmas cake mixing competition after our trip had officially ended. This whole experience will take some beating.

A superb trip which gave an excellent insight into the culture, peoples and landscapes of Nepal. The trip was excellently guided by an enthusiastic and knowledgeable leader. The experiences were varied and included a number of purpiseful walks taking us through villages and scenes with exceptional views.
Renee | Traveled in November
We chose this trip as we had visited Kathmandu in 2011 but had always wanted to get out into the countryside. This trip was a diverse mixture of culture and scenery. We enjoyed revisiting the temples and squares in Kathmandu, but also appreciating the mountains and scenery, especially a Pokhara. The clear views of the mountain ranges were amazing and breathtaking. We enjoyed the Chitwan park and saw lots of birds and rhinos, but unfortunately no tigers, but we didn't really expect to. Our tour guide and the local guides were all great with their knowledge and experience. It was a discovery, thank you

One of the best holidays I have been on with Explore. The guide was excellent - it was a big group and he managed everyone incredibly well. He was very knowledgeable, attentive and very proud of his country. If anyone had a suggestion or something they wanted included, he would make it happen. It would be great if Explore could offer a wider range of activity holidays to Nepal. Perhaps a wildlife/cultural tour? I would highly recommend this tour.
