A perfect wee taster of Scotland - this tour mixes up the world’s largest horse sculptures “The Kelpies”, the seriously stunning beauty of Loch Lomond (the biggest loch or lake in the whole of Britain and inspiration to poets and painters) and The Trossachs National Park with the savage history of Stirling Castle where kings were murdered, and rebellions started. If you're after a Kelpies tour from Edinburgh that also crams in lochs, legends, and a good bit of chaos from Scotland’s past – you’re in the right place.
Located only 40 minutes away from Budapest, Etyek village is the center of the Etyek wine region, which is the youngest and fastest developing wine region of Hungary.

You can meet personally with the local winemakers and learn the secrets of wine making. In the small group you will make new friends and discover the unique atmosphere of the Hungarian countryside.
Walking through ancient ruins, sailing along the Aegean, and exploring Istanbul’s Grand Bazaar—every day was an adventure! Highly recommend this trip for history lovers!
Exceptionally well organized with the owner a fair and reasonable individual. Also, as soon as I booked he set about organizing the trek immediately over WhatsApp, even though he was a very busy man (I assume because of the other good treks he runs.) Just make sure you have a good insurance company. Apparently with trekking companies it is common to include a hard to find clause stating you will fully indemnify the company if your insurance refuses to pay.
Althea, our tour leader was the most knowledgeable, caring, professional young woman. She showcased Gozo and Malta through a local perspective. She is a tremendous asset to Explore. For travellers wanting to experience the history, culture and everyday life of Gozo and Malta, this is an excellent trip.
