Thailand Group Tours

We had a great time. The itinerary was packed full of interesting and varied experiences delivered by a great tour guide. Woody worked hard to make sure we had a wonderful experience (despite the flooding which required work-arounds). Transport was via 2 small vans which were comfortable and well airconditioned - necessary for the hot weather and long distances covered. The hotels were all good and well located. Included airport transfers were also appreciated. This was our first Explore tour and we now understand why most of our group of 13 were multiple Explore users. Highly recommend this trip.

Our tour manager, John Pham, made the adventure exciting. His insight into the 4 countries we visited was outstanding. Every place we visited was insightful and his narrative had us prepared for the visit. Water puppet show, Angar Wat at sunrise, celebrating birthdays, basket boat rides on the Mekong Delta, Chu Chu tunnels, waterfalls, floating markets, temples and the reclining Buddha were just a few of the adventures we experienced. Tour was very different than we imagined.

Severely hurt on the motorcycle (Vespa) progressive dinner … driver was inexperienced and did not lock Vespa for me to dismount - causing me to fall hard on my back on concrete with Vespa falling on top of me!!! Due to severity of motorcycle falling on top of me, I am asking for a refund of the trip!!

The itinerary was nicely balanced. It included the main sights in the places visited along with down time to rest and refresh. If keeping busy was more to your liking, there were many excellent optional tours. The coach was comfortable and kept clean. Loved the hotels. The Galleria 10 in Bangkok was in an excellent location, within walking distance to restaurants, convenience stores, and the sky train. Their 2 for 1 daily Happy Hour was a nice way to unwind after a busy day of sightseeing. Thoroughly enjoyed the other hotels which also offered pools for relaxation - in Kanchanaburi, Sukhothai, Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai. The hotel in Kanchanaburi was within walking distance of the famous Bridge over the river Kwai which was a bonus. The hotel in Chiang Rai was within walking distance to additonal sights not included in the tour as well as to excellent restaurants. All the hotels offered a good selection of options for daily breakfast as well as for the included dinners.

The trip was well organised and we were well supported at all times . Our tour leader Ky was excellent , he made the experience a once in a lifetime .

Our trip to Bangkok to Saigon with explore and our guide Ky Lee was excellent To see so much of this fascinating place had to be by bikes, and they were the best E-bikes I cannot say enough of our guide Ky and the team He was so knowledgeable, approachable new exactly how to make our experience of our holiday simply the best The hotels, food, itinerary and transporting us around was 5 star Explore has made this holiday for me the best experience I have had And I certainly would recommend them to my friend’s and family To anyone wants an experience of a lifetime, explores the one And Ky no 1 Lucy
