We have been on many Explore holidays but this was the first “Upgraded” one and were left somewhat disappointed as it was hard to tell what the upgrade was and so it was not in our opinion value for money. The hotels were better on paper than In reality, we have had just as good, if not better hotels, on ordinary Explore holidays. Evening meals were included at the second hotel on a fixed menu which was somewhat basic so we did not have the opportunity to experience the good food of Umbria. It was a “walking” holiday but the walks turned out to take only about half the time indicated in the itinerary, so whilst we arrived in towns by lunch time there was quite a lot of hanging around waiting for the next scheduled event. The wine and food tasting needs more explanation as there was quite a lot of food provided but maybe not enough wine! This was the first time this holiday had been run so appreciate there is some leaning to do. The tour leader, Enrico, was generally good and was keen to get feedback. However, he did make the unforgivable error of stopping for an unnecessary coffee break 50 mins after setting out for the airport resulting in us arriving late at the designated airport time (tour end). Some ongoing modification is required.
