Winderful tour guide snd bus driver cannot compare them. the best.. we love doing it again in the near future❤️❤️

Affordable tours. Great tour guide, Gustavo Gomes and chauffer Sebastiano

Had a wonderful Europe tour with Expat Explore. Very well-thought and organised tour led by our professional and friendly guide Gustavo with careful and safe drivers throughout. Highly recommended without reservations!

I recently did the Classis Europe trip with Gustavo as our guide he was AMAZING!!! Gustavo was extreamly knowledgeable and made this trip fun and enjoyable. I had never done a tour before but i am definately going to be re booking another with them in the coming months. The trip was well planned from start to finish and can honestly say I felt safe the entire trip. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

Having taken five unforgettable trips with Expat Explore (my last one being Italy-Oct/2023), I can confidently give them 5 stars across the board. Their curated destinations, expertly planned itineraries, friendly staff and outstanding customer service make them my go-to for exceptional travel experiences. My next one is Japan!

The whole tour was amazing start to end, going in I was nervous as this was my first solo international travel experience. Throughout the tour, I felt reassured that I would be taken care of, from all the activities to accommodation/food. Our tour leader Firo was truly amazing, the tour would not have been the same without him! He ensured everyone was having fun at all times and put in extra effort to maximise our time everywhere and show us the key parts of every city. Ivo, our driver was equally amazing, navigating the narrow European streets and keeping our coach experience clean.

Accommodations in general were quite nice, more than I expected for the cost of the tour. Breakfasts had plenty of options to sustain us for the day, only qualm is that they were very early (6:30-7 start) and most people have a minimal appetite around then. Dinners were good quality with a few options, though not to my taste (in general quite bland). I participated in the optional fondue experience and wasn’t a huge fan - the meal portions were small and unsatisfying. There was lots of sightseeing and plenty of photo opportunities, definitely not as rushed as some of the other reviews claimed! Walking was inevitable but not too tiring, people of all ages were accommodated in our group. There was ample time to roam the cities individually too, with lots of tips and guidance from Firo.

Lots of time was spent travelling in the coach, which without mental preparation, can be quite tiring. We were however, kept well entertained by Firo, and got a chance to stretch our legs every two hours for a mandatory comfort stop.

Warm clothes were a must and appropriate wall plugs and adapters were needed, though our hotels were generally able to provide. Rooms were spacious and the rooming situation was quite comfortable.

Overall would recommend this tour to anyone who has never visited Europe before as you get to see many countries and quite thoroughly too. Huge shoutout to Firo and Ivo who made it an amazing experience!

The tour was amazing, and we saw so many beautiful places. The optional excursions were all great. Firo was an awesome tour leader, and he made everything so much fun and shared all his knowledge. And the fact that he can speak Italian was great. Always felt safe on the coach, which was comfy and Firo even organised wifi for the coach. The tour details as advertised is exactly what you get and the hotels were all great. Some had small rooms, but all you need is a bed and bathroom to rest. The tours are affordable and well organised.
Doing my 3rd tour now in October - Taste of Eastern Europe.
Will be great of Firo will be our tour leader again. Mr Cool 🍌.

For our second trip with Expat Explore, we booked the Italy Rail tour and let me tell you, rail is the way to travel! The itinerary is jam packed, you are constantly on the move on foot and on and off both public transit and regional trains. You need to be prepared to move and lift your luggage (pack light!) but we quickly bonded with our fellow travelers and everyone helped everyone.

The first day was a whirlwind, flying in and diving right into a walking tour on the same day, so next time we will be sure to fly in one day early. Hotels were good - some are a little dated, but you aren't there to hang out in the hotel.

10/10 recommend Expat
10/10 recommend the rail tours
10/10 loved our tour leader, Firo

The tour guide was knowledgable, the trip was well organized and we had a good time.

We’ve done 2 tours with Expat. Our 1st one was Classic Europe to 7 counties in 12 days. We had a group of 8 with ages between 21 and 70. Our tour guide Luke was the best! He made sure we learned a few phrases for each Country and gave us safety tips for each area, It was a trip that our family will cherish forever! Luke was super funny and had facts/trivia about almost every topic. I recommend doing a majority of the excursions too. They are worth it! Our 2nd excursion was just my hubby and I to Best Of UK & Ireland. We had a blast and decided to go on this trip because Luke was the tour guide again. Another spectacular trip! We will do another trip probably next year w Expat!

Expat gave me one of my best trips ever. I toured the UK and loved every minute of it. I learnt so much from Luke and Chris and met some fabulous people who will be my friends for life if you want to really get out and see the world go with expat.

Our Tour Leader Luke, was knowledgeable on all aspects of the various places we visited and went above and beyond to make sure that all people on the tour were happy and if there was anything we needed.
Throw in the expertise of Craig our driver who always made you feel you were getting to your destination safely.

We have used Expat Explore for a number of tours. The tour leaders are nothing but the best, seamlessly weaving their knowledge with the expertise of local guides into lovely, undeniably great adventures. Our latest tour was UK/ Ireland led the ever jovial Luke and supremely skilled coach driver Craig. This pair made sure that Expat Explore delivered another "once in a lifetime" experience for us.

Husband and I went on the best of UK and Ireland tour and absolutely loved it! Luke our guide was so knowledgeable, fun and witty. Had an amazing experience and made some great friends along the way

So far I've joined their tours in Egypt and South Africa, both were fantastic tours complimented by great team work between professional tour leaders and drivers. In terms of the pre tour experience the customer service team were always quick to respond and made me feel like a valued passenger.
