Antarctica

Antarctica Very much a holiday of a lifetime A small 130 people cruise ship touring Antarctica South Georgia and the Falklands over 19 days Small enough to allow onshore excursions and get up close to animal be they on shore or off I am not a cruise person but this is the only way to go there Great staff and hospitality Fantastic food When onboard there is plenty to do during down time e g when making the 2 day Drake Passage Take advice if you are prone to sea-sickness Our crossing was calm but many still suffered even though on medication Make sure you leave time to cover Patagonia and spend time in Buenos Aires Not cheap but this is the only way to see Antarctica

Have been on over 15 holidays with

Have been on over 15 holidays with Explore and have never been disappointed Their holidays are nearly always full on and busy but this gives you the chance to see as much as possible in a shorter time Always use good guides Highly recommended

All thanks to Explore

I had the most amazing experience in Turkey all thanks to Explore Our tour guide was a beacon of knowledge and couldn t be friendlier The tour plan was perfection it gave us the chance to learn have fun and really embrace the Turkish culture From start to finish I really can not think of 1 fault other than the extra pounds I ve put on due to the very tasty Baklava Without a doubt explore I will be back Thank you

Greek Island Wanderer

The trip was so well planned and even though we had two different leaders the transition was quite smooth in my eyes Definitely two different styles of leading but nevertheless I enjoyed my trip as a whole I ve been wanting to go to Greece for a long time and was happy to finally do it

The trip of a lifetime exceeding expectations

A fabulous trip with all care and consideration of passengers comfort and safety taken into account Guides are chosen well and trips are designed to take in as much of the countries visited at a pace the group can cope with

I had never been to Greece before

I had never been to Greece before I loved the island hopping and the time spent in Athens gave us another glimpse into life in Greece Our guide Peter was fabulous He took a personal interest in each member of the group noting their physical abilities for each outing We learned a lot about life in Greece s past and present from Peter My favorite island was Syros We spent enough time on each island so that it felt relaxed and not frantic I really liked the flexibility of the tour This meant I was able to do a little rambling on my own each day

Cape Town to Victoria Falls

In September October 2019 I took Explore s trip from Cape Town to Victoria Falls visiting South Africa Botswana Namibia and Zimbabwe The group was relatively small and the trip allowed us to see many animals in the wild and often quite up close We stayed in comfortable lodges and cabins throughout the trip and the truck we used was also comfortable and afforded us good views of the animals when we could not get out of it The tour leader prepared our meals which were simple but all very tasty And of course we ended up at the spectacular Victoria Falls which is one of those places most people want to see at least once in their lifetime All in all it was a great trip and a wonderful experience

Greek Island Wanderer

Just back from a fabulous holiday with Explore We did the Greek Island Wanderer trip and I would highly recommend it if you haven t visited any of the Greek Islands or your unsure which ones to see This gave us a taster of 4 islands Paros Syros Santorini Naxos with the option to visit Delos Mykonos There were 16 people in the group and there was the option to go walking hiking on each of the islands Our tour leader Eleftheria Papadoku was amazing so well organised when it came to organising the tickets for our trips ferries Everything just went so smoothly I would highly recommend this trip and would love to do it again in the future
