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.

Rux was a superb tour guide, so knowledgeable, entertaining, enthusiastic and caring. She really looked after us and went the extra mile to cater for everyone. She made the tour and is an excellent ambassador for Explore.

This was our 8th tour with Explore and as always we thoroughly enjoyed the trip. It introduced us to Andalucia in a very compact package that rewarded us with many memorable excursions, that gave us a good overview of the region and previously unheard of cities (Ronda). Our guide Lidia was wonderful, very well organised and she always ensured we all knew when and where we needed too be and it worked. We had the company of a great group which always helps and everyone worked well together. If there are any downsides then perhaps an extra day in Cordaba even the inclusion of Cadiz would have added to the adventure but I guess that affects pricing and time so you can't have it all. This has been a great trip and I would thoroughly recommend it

Being chased by an elephant on a drive!! The Ivory Tree lodge was the best staff was very friendly and helpful. Our driver from there Pinuo he was so friendly and knowledgeable. Taught us so many different things. The only thing is I would have liked more hands on experience with Elephants and giraffes.
Fiona | Traveled in May
Brilliant long weekend, the highlight being seeing 3 brown bears ! Amazing experience! The pace was full on, with long days and lots of walking, but this was stated in the itinerary, so there were no surprises there. Our leader, Rux, was fantastic, booked us into lovely restaurants. Her knowledge of the Romanain Royal Family and the histories of all the castles we visited was amazing!! Top marks for retaining all that knowledge!!
