It was a splendid introductory trip. The guides in each city were very good; the the cities themselves were fascinating. We chose our own restaurants which was easy. The museums were quite spectacular, and if you like art Botelo is a master of painting and sculpture. I must say I was confused about the preparatory organization, since it all seemed to be done on-line; and did not come together in a package for us until a few days before we arrived, but in the end the logistics were excellent. The cars and guides arrived on time at every stop, and the hotels were very good. So all in all, well done.

Excellent, saw a lot and have difficulty choosing what was best. Guides, tours and accommodations were great!

Four amazing countries in one trip! Each place had its own unique charm, and the itinerary was perfectly balanced. Switzerland’s Alps and Italy’s gelato were highlights!

It’s been 1 year since the first week of June, 2025 when my wife and I did the 1-week cycling of the Puglia region beginning in the city/town of Matera (which is in the Basilicata region, right on the border of the Puglia region). We had such an amazing time exploring the back country roads and many small quaint towns the Puglia region offers. So many memorable stops along the way including caffe, gelato, walks in town squares (piazza). The group of 15 riders plus Emanuele (local tour guide) and Leonardo (driver/assistant) were all great people to spend a vacation with.

An absolutely amazing experience! The tour was incredibly well-organized from start to finish. We stayed at a beautiful chalet with breathtaking, insane views of Mont Blanc. Our guide, Adrian, was fantastic. He was always there to help with any question or situation, and his explanations of the routes we hiked were super clear and helpful. He was always available, incredibly patient, and brought such a fun energy to the group with his great sense of humor. Also thanks to Julieta and Odran, the two chalet hosts. They took amazing care of us, cooked delicious breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and were incredibly nice and welcoming throughout the whole trip. As a small note regarding dinner, the meals were plated individually as a starter, main, and dessert. While it was lovely, I would have personally preferred a style where food is placed on the table so everyone can choose their own portions. To sum up, it was an amazing adventure.

I booked this trip very last minute with less than a week before the departure date and Explore were as always great in sorting out my flights and the arrangements. This trip was a great mix of cities and walking in the lovely countryside through some idyllic little villages. The cities were all different and absolutely beautiful and all the hotels so well situated for walking to all main sights. Craig our tour guide did an excellent job of making sure everything was well organised and thus the arrangements all ran like clockwork. Craig went the extra mile in showing us things that were not on the itinerary and really made the trip so enjoyable. He gave us a wealth of information on the history, culture and also the ways of life in the area where his house is. His passion and great humour made it so much more interesting. I especially loved all the little Spanish villages we visited on the walking days and eating delicious food with the locals in the village restaurants. All in all a really great trip once again from Explore 👍

The trip was above my expectations. The accommodations were clean and comfortable. The family was always helpful, happy to help and provide whatever was needed. The leader was impeccable! Friendly, funny, helpful, knowledgeable, and kind. The group and the weather (early June) also made this trip amazing. The pasta/mozarella workshop and the pizza making demonstrations are very much worth it. Ohh and the meals were delicious!

Had an amazing time in Japan! The only thing we can say which really wasn’t a challenge as such, was that on our last morning we were being picked up for the airport before the hotel’s breakfast time and we had already paid for that meal. So we had to purchase breakfast elsewhere. Onsens are always a great experience. All three trips that we have booked with you previously have all been a great experience

This was the trip of a lifetime. We fell in love with Porto the minute we set foot in the city.....and Gaia was also amazing. Each town we visited was delightful and we highly recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Portugal by foot, by boat, and by car/coach. Simply amazing.

This cruise was great. The only complaint is I did receive information on how to book optional excursions in advance.

This trip was hands down the best trip I’ve ever been on. From the very first day to the last day, I had the time of my life and I’m already itching to go back. During our kickstart meeting on day one, I knew we were in for a treat when we first met Sim. He engaged with the group and made it so much more comfortable being in a room full of strangers. We had a lot of rain during our time in Cape Town which forced a few plans to change, like not being able to go up Table Mountain. Sim changed our whole day around to make sure we made the best out of it and despite not going up the mountain, we had the most perfect time in the city and thoroughly enjoyed everything we had to do. In my opinion, it’s made me want to go back to experience it when it’s not raining! The game drives during the trip were brilliant too. We had the most knowledgeable guides and respectful too, not one of them crossed any boundaries with animals, especially a time when everyone was trying to follow a leopard in and there had to be at least 20 jeeps closing in, our guide, Neil (in the Delta), chose to forget about it because the poor cub would’ve been terrified and I really respected him for it. I have never felt more at peace with myself than I did during this trip. It healed something in me that I didn’t know was broken and I owe it not only to the trip itself but the trip managers, Sim and Often. Often, the Namibia trip manager, was outstanding and he always made sure everyone was feeling included. I was the youngest in the group and I never felt less than the others in the group. I will cherish the bond I created with Often in the short 7 days we were together. I wasn’t feeling too great mentally during my time in Namibia (he didn’t know that) but he helped me immensely without knowing, by just including me in conversation and making me feel welcomed. I hope he knows how great he is. Sim is a brilliant trip manager. He always went above and beyond to make sure we were enjoying our time. He joined in on activities where possible and made sure we were all comfortable. I’ve really grown to love him a lot and I will always hold him close to my heart. He has truly become like a brother to me. He uplifts everyone who is around. If you’re having a bad day, Sim will surely make it better. He creates deep and personal connections with each traveller on his trips and that is all anyone can ask for in a trip manager. He always remained professional when the time came and worked so hard to run the perfect trip (too hard sometimes). I’m unsure if i can do another contiki because Nothing! could beat this one.

OMG! I had the absolute best time ever. New Zealand is stunning and choosing Contiki made my life so much easier. I didn’t have to think once, everything was planned out for me. Contiki is such a great way to meet new people, I definitely made life long friendships. My tour guide was Anna and honestly, I don’t think I would’ve had such an amazing time if it wasn’t for her. She made the experience fun, was very knowledgeable and overall made everything easy to understand. My bus driver was Pat, he was an absolute star. Never once did I feel unsafe with him driving. He’s also great to have a drink and chat with! I couldn’t say anything bad about Contiki or New Zealand even if I tried. Highly recommend for first time solo travellers.

I had a great time in Cuba. Lionel and the team were really professional, trustworthy, and accommodating. Would definitely book with them again!
Excellent - Erin Smith
The tour and the guide were excellent, and we saw a lot more than we were expecting in Havana. They were also flexible in letting us see some places on our list so we appreciate it. The hosts in Varadero were also very accompanying especially when we asked to stay a couple extra nights. Overall the tour was fantastic.

The overall trip went quite well. We had a few surprises finding our accommodations being away from our destination, however we were well looked after once we arrived. The app helped us navigate throughout our trip by providing directions as well as information regarding services and travel tips. I will consider using them for my future adventure plans.

We thoroughly enjoyed our 6-day cycle around Istria in May. The hills gave a little challenge but the rewards were many with great sweeping descents and amazing scenery. Then the coastal rides offered the opportunity to take a dip in the Adriatic and visit beautiful towns like Rovinj. The hotels were all excellent with great hospitality and food. I would definitely recommend them and hope to have another cycle or hiking trip in the future.
