The best. It suited me. Lovely walks, lovely food, historical locations, wonderful guide. I loved the local input - visits to the farms, bakery. A visit to a working Truli house would have been a plus ( very touristy visit to Alberobello) and the last walk could have been more varied scenically. Could have stayed much longer in Matera! Altogether it was the best trip I’ve done with Explore. It helped having a lovely group too.

Excellent trip and very good guide in AJ.
Only negative was hotel in Florence. Good location (change from original hotel) but was tired and cleanliness could have been better. Very cramped solo room 🙁
Highlights were Pienza and Castellina in Chianti. Great hotels, beautiful walks and really good food and wine. 😀

Hiking in Delphi and Meteora was nothing short of magical. Our stay in Meteora was a highlight, just minutes from the trails to the suspended monasteries. Breakfast with a stellar view of Meteora’s surreal rock formations was truly unforgettable.
They organised my trip to France to walk the GR70 Stevenson's Way, which I completed in August. I booked 9 months in advance, which I recommend to ensure availability of accommodation in some remote areas of France.
Communication with the team was excellent and the staff were very helpful.
About two weeks before departure I received a pre-trip information pack. I was pleasantly surprised by the depth and quality of the information provided which included details of accommodation, baggage transfers and a detailed day by day route guide. All this was available to print and save to my phone.
Another great feature was gpx files for use with free app. This proved surprisingly easy to use and the voice guidance and audible off-route warnings were particularly helpful.
The trip itself was extremely well organised. I enjoyed the variety of food and accommodation and experienced only one check-in problem which they quickly resolved after I called their emergency contact number.
I had a great trip and would highly recommend this company if you are planning a walking trip.

Arrangements were all in order and hotel /restaurant choices were excellent and as described. The app works well (with the minor caveat that the details of the map disappear when you zoom in too close and when you go off track). We loved our walk on Costa Brava, because we could just focus on walking a truly gorgeous coast without any logistical worry.
