- ADiane· May 6th, 2023Shame the group of 8 Americans, with one exception, weren’t walkers and may not have realised it was a walking holiday- certainly their leisure trainers left a lot to be desired. Walks adjusted to accommodate non walkers One Australian lady’s trainers fell to bit’s after the first day and were replaced by another pair of fashion trainers.

- NMNANCE· May 7th, 2023The trip was good but the logistics were horrific. Tour Radar never told me that I would be with Explore. Consequently, I never found the group at the airport. Where we were staying was a remote part at the top of Lake Como. Because I didn't meet up with the group for transportation, I had to take a taxi, 2 trains and a ferry to get there. It was stressful and a holiday weekend - so very crowded. For the ferry, I had to appeal to the mercy of the ticket agent as it was getting toward the end of the day for ferry operations. I did not even have the name of the Hotel, Trying to cover their - well, bases - Explore sent me the final documents 5 days into the trip on May 3rd. The date on the email for the documents was left off. Everyone else received the documents 3 weeks prior to the trip. Had I received them when I was supposed to have, I wouldn't have started my trip in such a horrific manner.Show moreExplore! commented on this reviewHi Nance, thanks for your review, though I’m really sorry to hear about your arrival experience.
