We really enjoyed the trip. Hadn't done a food tour before and it did not disappoint. The guide was excellent, ensuring we saw the best of the places we visited. Would highly recommend.

Diego was a fantastic tour leader. He managed the adversity of the itinerary when it had to be changed due to civil unrest, he kept us up to date with the situation and produced a great variety of alternative destinations. He was very interested in the wildlife and flora, he was able to take wonderful pictures of the things we saw - which he shared with us. He was passionate and very knowledgeable about his country and passed that enthusiasm to us. The itinerary was varied and the days were full. My only comment would be that it would be nicer to sometimes have meals at the end of the day instead of big meals at lunchtime.

I had a fabulous time in Jordan. Walking on soft sand in the desert was really tough and bonded the group beautifully. The Bedoin camps were magical - sleeping under the stars. We even rode camels. Petra was stunning and walking in the back route via the Monastry was amazing. The highlight for me was swimming in the Dead Sea and bathing in mud. An experience I will never forget. A visit to Jerash finished our tour which was a perfect mix of action and sites. I thoroughly recommend it.

Enjoyed touring north and southern regions of Portugal, Expertise and depth of knowledge of history and culture of Sabrina, our Tour Director and professionalism and excellent tour driver, Felipe! Negative aspect: Was suppose to be a small group but number went up to 42! Bus felt tight and crowded and many of us ended up getting sick with coughs and bad colds.

Had a wonderful experience visiting Japan with Explore. Travelling with the group enabled me to visit many more places in this beautiful country, than I would have managed independently. Our group leader, Raya, was very knowledgeable and she conveyed all the practical information and relevant history of Japan in a very clear manner. We were also fortunate to have two trainee guides with the group. Marika was also very knowledgeable and as well as sharing lots of interesting details with us, she went out of her way to give us lots of local tips on good places to shop and what to buy. Parisa was very easy to get along with and when my friend and I mentioned that we’d be interested in visiting the theatre , she researched and found a Japanese cultural evening and helped us to book tickets. Raya, Marika and Parisa all got to know what individuals within the group were interested in seeing/ doing during the trip and did their very best to research and offer valuable advice to us all.

My first ever escorted trip by myself but definitely won’t be my last! Sydney our tour leader was amazing and looked after us so well. Our driver John got us to everywhere safely, in what were some very challenging journeys! Lots of pot holes and speed bumps in SA!! They made a great team together. The full packed itinerary suited me and although fast paced we covered a lot of the country and gave a great flavour of what SA has to offer. Finally the group on the tour were so friendly and great company - I couldn’t be happier!
