The outings and history talks were great, Brandon and Minty are awesome guys and made our trip one to remember.
Got a little tiring some days, you do cover some miles on foot but it was worth it.
Highly recommended!
We highly recommend Highlights of Albania. The trips were highly organised and our guide Geri was very knowledgeable and looked after us well. It was our first trip with Explore.

Fabulous trip, tweaked perfectly by Donal, who knows the area like the back of his hand. The accommodation was great, and having the trip be center based in the one convenient hotel was excellent. In early June, the wildflowers were in profusion, an added bonus to incredible mountain scenery. Uphill parts of walk manageable given a lot of tge mileawas contouring. Highly recommended!

Wonderful trip with our guide Lisa. The itinerary was good, but many long bus rides-which is necessary to cover mainland Greece and get in as much as we did in 7 full days. Would have loved to have an overnight stay in Nafplio. Enjoyed staying in hotels within walking distance to the towns-made it really easy to just go during free times. The dinner buffets at the hotels were not my favorite but understand why since a couple nights we were getting into the hotels late due to traveling. Kalabaka and Meteora were a highlight for me. The Olive Farm and Cooking night were wonderful. Both the Santorini and Mykonos stays were wonderful. The optional catamaran excursion on Santorini was great.
The tour was very nice it even covered places that one could not think about when arranging your own travel, Noddy and Paolo were amazing, the hotels were great as well as the breakfasts and applicable dinners. We had the time of our lives and I will highly recommend this tour. We've met new friends and exchanged numbers and we will be visiting each other shortly, how amasing. This was the best tour ever and it was our 2nd time travelling with Expat explore and will certainly do it again.

Thank you. Your plan worked well. It was good to see my luggage at every stop on the way. The hotels were great and the Rural Group A were fantastic. Thank you again. Regards, sore feet!

Puglia was beautiful. They did a great job of coordinating bikes, luggage, and routes. The lodging was great for our 7 night stays, except for 1 night, when our group was split into 2 different hotels that were not very close with no advance warning.
