UK and Britain Sightseeing Trips

This trip was exactly as described. It is full on, brekky 7.30am out at 8.30am. A lot of coach travel but with breaks that made it fine. The accommodation was far better than I expected. Our tour leader was always on hand, always checking everyone was present, and was very approachable. This was my first trip with Explore and I was a solo traveller but I always felt included. I will be booking my next trip soon. 🙂

I enjoyed all we saw within our nine days and how well organised the trip was! Such a great and easy way to travel Europe. Our guides were also incredible and so knowledgeable! I personally think there were many FTA's (which added up quite quickly in costs) and expected more included experiences, but otherwise was very impressed by how organised our trip manager was and how smooth everything ran!

I honestly can’t put into words how amazing this trip was, everything was perfect. The amount of things we got to do in a small space of time and all the wonderful people we met along the way made it so hard to say goodbye! Being shown around by our tour guide and queen Driss was by far the best part of the trip and I think any tour would be hard to beat without him there to sing for us and make sure we’re all being treated like queens. From taking us to unique and beautiful places off the itinerary to dancing with us in the desert, I felt so safe the whole time with Driss as our guide and Hamid as our driver and would absolutely love to relive the experience all over again. LIFE IS GOOD <3

Both trips were fantastic and allowed a nice balance of group activities and time on our own. Our guide for the Vietnam portion was excellent, both in his knowledge and personality. was also phenomenal when we were stranded in Ho Chi Min City when our flight was cancelled, please let him know how much I appreciated him! I highly recommend further mentoring for our guide for the Cambodia portion. He spent too much time organizing "family photos" (a couple is fine, he had way too many), and we found he did not provide clear advance information on our itinerary. I do not know how much influence he as on the itinerary, however, while I found the SME excellent at Angkor Wat, he got into a bit too far in detail (was more like a university class). There was also a cyclo tour of highlights of the city that showed us things we could not really see behind trees and across roads; the train station was also not a memorable highlight for many. He simply did not exude confidence that he would be of assistance in any emergency. Overall a memorable trip!

Vietnam was wonderful. Our tour director was awesome. Even the weather cooperated. I think it would be nice to spend a little more time at the Vietnam museum because there was so much to see and so little time.

This trip was everything I hoped it would be AND MORE. Seeing Morocco through this tour was truely a once in a lifetime experience. I will tell all of my friends about this experience for many years to come. This is all owed to Driss; his guidance curated a trip full of travel over mass tourism. In addition to the included activities it was evident that Driss wanted to provide the best opportunities for us to seize our holiday. For example Driss would often suggest optional activities that allowed us to see the grassroots of the local communities as he knew this meant a lot to the group and all of the optional activities he suggested ended up being the favourites parts of many people’s trip. If anyone thinking about going on this trip solo is worried about making friends no need to stress, Driss is exceptional at bonding the group. No matter what you will walk away having met women from all walks of life.
