Italy Small Group Trips

Fantastic walking holiday. The leader Matteo Giordan was lovely. Very knowledgeable, helpful, well organised & conscientious , & made everyone feel included-he made the holiday. He set up the group info app first thing so we all had information, meeting times etc easily available. -It also provided an easy platform for sharing photos! He included some lovely local activities like visiting a farm to understand more about their annual schedule & arranged a local homecooked traditional meal at his parents farm which was delicious!

Awesome weather, views and walking routes, stops and time to explore. Excellent tour guide, local knowledge, able to answer all questions, great briefings. Made the whole group welcome. Perfect accommodation, and food. Great base and easy bus or boat trips to start / end. Low season is a wonderful time to explore Amalfi coast, valleys, history and agriculture. No crowds. Great suprises of food and local people to introduce aspects of the local food, farming and music culture. Walking the paths and lots of steps is rewarding in this beautiful natural environment with a feast of architecture and views.

A fantastic trip with Explore on the Amalfi Coast. It is so much more than just a walking holiday. Our guide, Matteo, shared so much information about the history and background of everything we saw. He was engaging, had a great sense of humour, looked out for everyone and was very kind. He worked hard to make sure everyone had a great time. Our itinerary was varied, and each day was interesting with some good surprises. The hotel was very good, run by a lovely team who were very welcoming and helpful. Our dinners in the hotel were delicious.

The trip was well organised from the start. The tour leader was exceptional and very well versed in what we were about to see and in the general geography of Sicily. We had not been on an organised tour before but will certainly consider Explore again. Thank you

The host family was lovely, accommodating and friendly. Each meal was delicious and served with warmth and smiles. Our guide, Pete Meyers, was knowledgeable confident and very conscientious. All of our 16 tour members had his attention and focus throughout the week. The areas of the hikes and visits were all stunning and filled with beautiful views, experiences and food!

This walking tour of the Amalfi coast was full of delights! Our local tour guide Matteo was extremely knowledgeable and informative. He was adept at making sure everyone in our group was well taken care of and accomodated no matter what level of ability during the walks, The scenary was fantastic and the food and culture we experienced were unforgetable. This was by far the best guided tour I have ever experienced. One of the best experiences was sharing a delicious meal in a local family farmhouse. I highly recommend this tour!
