It was excellent in every way. was the best tour guide. was very nice.
The visit to the farm was so memorable. The bog, learning about animals and it’s fair to say, I will never have a two week old lamb cuddling next to my face!

Excellent trip highly recommend. Some walking but not to difficult. Very caring guide who is kind hearted and makes sure the whole group is happy.
Beautiful country side. Some hotels could be better, but there are still scars of the war so some buildings need TLC
Food is excellent although Dubrovnik is quite expensive and very touristic. Highly recommend trip

The tours were set up with the perfect mix of tour/personal time. Stefan, Claudia and our bus driver were top notch navigating us through the narrow streets to make sure we saw all of the local highlights! Recommend to everyone.
Wonderful trip in every way! We were planning a similar trip to take independently but decided it would be easier to go with Explore. So pleased we did! We would never have found the fantastic walks and probably would have stayed in hotels close to ports instead of the wonderful locations chosen for us. Our fantastic guide, Peter, was also able to lead us to some great restaurants, advise about public bus timetables and ensure that everyone in the group was catered for. Our group was a lot of fun and we met up with people we probably would never had encountered! An action packed itinerary which worked like clockwork!!

I recently had the opportunity to embark on a wonderful tour of Italy, and it was an experience that will forever hold a special place in my heart. From the moment I set foot in this beautiful country, I was captivated by its rich history, stunning landscapes, and warm hospitality. Our journey began in Rome, where ancient ruins like the Colosseum and the Roman Forum transported us back in time. The grandeur of the Vatican City left me in awe, especially when I gazed upon Michelangelo's masterpiece, the Sistine Chapel ceiling. As we ventured north to Florence, I was enchanted by the art and culture of Tuscany. The Uffizi Gallery and Florence Cathedral were absolute highlights, and strolling along the Arno River at sunset was a truly romantic experience. Our tour continued to Venice, where the intricate canals and ornate architecture made me feel like I was in a fairytale. A gondola ride through the narrow waterways was a dream come true, and exploring the historic neighborhoods of San Marco and Dorsoduro was a delight.
