As a repeated traveler with G Adventures company, I am sorry to say that this was not the best experience I had in my 2 weeks vacation due to above mentioned issues. The trip otherwise would have been fantastic as the sites are amazing and Sandre's knowledge and experience are remarkable.
Wonderful trip. Loved the culture and the food. A nice mix of cathedrals and castles and monasteries. Sintra was excellent and loved the Cork Farm tour and also the winery. River boat ride in Porto was good as well as the Port tasting. Excellent trip overall and exactly what I was expecting. Fredy was always available and communicative. He really made the trip spectacular.
The Irish Experience was a wonderful trip around Ireland and into Northern Ireland. The tour director and bus driver were excellent pointing out the wonderful sights and Irish folklore and getting to our destinations on time and ahead of the crowds at Blarney Castle and the Ring of Kerry.
As a package this trip comes together incredibly well. The walk is nicely challenging for those used to hills, steps and uneven surfaces. I would grade it “moderate” rather than “leisurely to moderate”. Being based in one place for the week, in a small village away from the main tourist spots, was a bonus I hadn’t anticipated before the walk. The accommodation was peaceful and comfortable. The guide had an excellent knowledge of local history and its people. His stories and passion enriched the whole experience no end.
Another spectacular trip with Explore. I highly recommend this company. As a solo female traveller they have never let me down. Explore is 100 % reliable.

They cover everything on the way. Southern Iceland tour was good and our guide was a knowledgeable lady with an experience of travelling to over 55 countries. Only request is to increase the duration of visit at destinations by 10-15mins at least. This can be done by reducing time spent at super markets and cafes.
What a wonderful trip! This trip activity level is rated 3 of 4 (strenuous) so be prepared for lots of walking and hiking, although it is ALL very doable. We loved being on the highest mountain peaks, our local guides were knowledgeable and fun, and the towns we visited were quintessential Alps. Our tour guide and driver were so engaging and fun. And our group of 22 couldn’t have been better. We all had a blast. Highly recommend!
Woweee! Such an amazing day filled with lots of different things to see! The guide Howsa was absolutely fantastic and so so knowledgeable! He made the journey exciting and we didn't feel like the bus journey was boring due to his uplifting attitude and positivity! He was so passionate about Iceland and knew so much interesting information. Howsa's English was impeccable and his choice of words left us feeling like we were listening to an audio book!
Would recommend this trip to anyone that appreciates nature and outstanding views!
So glad I found this trip after researching must see places in Iceland as it topped off our trip and made it even more incredible!"
