South East Asia Countryside and village visits Trips

Great walking holiday along beautiful coastline with points of interest along the way. Challenging underfoot at times but always great fun with excellent guide, Zep. Accommodation in Kas not as pleasant as other places on the trip. Hotel there was clean but felt soulless/had no atmosphere compared to other excellent hospitality experienced.

This was a really enjoyable trip. My e-bike was the best I've ever had (thanks Miguel!) and ideal for the terrain. The scenery was interesting and varied, we cycled on mainly quiet roads and tracks, and it was great to be away from tourist hotspots. I can't speak too highly of Miguel. He's a lovely guy, very well organised while making it all look easy, and he did all he could to make our trip a safe and enjoyable one. He worked hard to make sure we all had a good time and took us to some fantastic restaurants where the food was delicious and excellent value. The area has an interesting history and I thought the balance was just right between hearing about it without feeling overburdened with information. 100% recommend!

The tour was wonderful, the last accommodations although very beautiful setting were a bit removed and hard to get meals if you didn't want to eat at the hotel. The most memorable experience I believe worthy Home hosted luncheon and the truffle hunt experience. Anton, our tour guide was absolutely wonderful very knowledgeable very accommodating and very patient

We chose explore for the itinerary having considered many other companies and we were not disappointed. Placido, our tour leader was great fun and looked after us very well. The use of local guides in most places provided in depth knowledge.

The Tuscan/Umbrian tour was a fabulous experience! Everything was perfectly planned and the immersion experiences were unforgettable! The family who welcomed us into their home for an Italian lunch, the olive oil tour and tasting, the wine tasting were gave us a real flavor of Italy. But I would have to say that for me the highlight was the truffle hunting experience! We learned so much that day, saw amazing views and enjoyed authentic homemade food. In every case we were greeted with warm hospitality. And I can’t forget to mention our tour guide Giulio (and our driver Gerry) who made the trip so enjoyable every step of the way!

Very inclusive and the tour director was very knowledgeable and attentive to all concerns. Also the bus driver was very good. This was our 6th trip with Trafalgar and they have always been on target and left nothing to worry about. Excellent tour company!!
