From the very start, prior to the tour, Expat Explore team was very easy to reach, communication is within 5 minutes or less. Ask and you'll get an answer. The payment invoice is very transparent, every time you drop a payment ( for installment ), you'll get an updated invoice, worry-free that your money is being scammed, this is peace of mind. The tour was also fast paced, covering alot of destinations, good for exercise , and in my opinion, is not tailored for people more than 60y/o or for those with heart condition as we averaged minimum 15,000 steps / day according to my apple watch. Last but not least, our tour guide Levy is very knowledgeable, accommodating, very friendly and more good words to say ...see u again Expat-explore !!! 30 Aug - 13 September, 2025 Tour Eastern & Central Europe leg.

I knew nothing about Expat Tours and literally picked them out of a search engine and took a leap of faith. That leap led me to the most memorable, life changing perfect vacation. My trip was absolutely amazing in ever way. It started with my Fantastic tour guide and bus driver. The days were planned and organized so well. It is a very busy schedule but that is what I was looking for in a tour. I got to see and experience so many things during my trip. I truly had no idea I would have the opportunities to experience so many countries and maximize every minute.
