- LLLionel· December 5th, 2025It was a wonderful experience, Gemma our team leader made more exciting and she is very knowledgeable and Silvian our driver is amazing.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Show moreTrip date: November 2025
- LFLois· December 1st, 20251- when I booked with tour radar, I was not informed that I actually booked with Xpat tours. This led to a lot of missed communication 2- you labeled the tour low season, however, Xpat made as an extra $400-500 on tour, otherwise, we miss many things. For example, the Venice hotel was far away, so the only way to see Venice was to book the extra expensive tour. That is deception! It turned out to be an expensive tour. 3- the system that there is a tour leader who just manages logistics but does not know much about the sites, is pathetic. OtherTourRadar tours did not do that. 4- we had to carry our heavy bags long distances of walking in the streets! Book hotels where the bus can park to load and unload infront of the hotel! 5- never heard of a tour that is done through moving large groups in public transportation! This is unthinkable! 6- there is much much more, but you get the idea. I am not sure if I can trust tour radar again! Iam very sure, I will never book with Xpat again.Show moreTrip date: November 2025

Traveler•Written November 2025Is the Colosseum & Roman Forum Guided Tour an optional excursion that must be pre-booked at least 20 days prior to the tour? If I book the tour by November 10th for November 30th, can I pre-book this optional tour? What is the cost? Will those who pre-book this optional still see the Colosseum from the outside and wait for the others who go in for the tour?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written November 2025
Yes, the Colosseum & Roman Forum Guided Tour is an optional excursion that requires pre-booking at least 20 days before the tour start. If you book by November 10th for the November 30th departure, there's a good chance the pre-booking can be accommodated. The exact cost depends on supplier rates. Guests who pre-book will enter the site with the guide, while others can remain in the hotel or do anything they want during the excursion.

Asked on October 2nd, 2025I have a doubt, my group have 6 adults and one baby under 3 years, is there any discount to the baby?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written October 2025
At the moment, we do not offer group, child, or senior discounts — the only discounts displayed on our website. Our tours are designed for adult travelers, and the minimum age to join is 10 years old. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate babies or children under this age limit on our trips, as the itineraries involve long days of travel, walking tours, and experiences that are not suitable for very young travelers.

Traveler•Written September 2025Solo traveler will be pair with same gender. What if can't find someone to pair with me?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written September 2025
If you are travelling solo and choose not to add the private room upgrade, you'll be paired with another solo traveler of the same gender. In the unlikely event that we are unable to pair you, you will enjoy the room to yourself at no additional cost – all while only paying the regular twin-share tour price.

Chris
Traveler•Written September 2025Do I need to make the full payment or deposit for the booking?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written September 2025
When you book our Tour, you are requested to pay a 10% Deposit and the remaining balance can be paid in arrears manually when you wish to make payments, or pay for it as a lump sum 60 Days before the tour starts. However, if you book for a tour that starts less than 60 Days away, then you would need to make full payment.

Asked on August 28th, 2025What optional excursions need to be pre booked? The optional excursions are very confusing. It would be nice to have better clarification.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written August 2025
For our Italy in Low Season Tour, the only Optional that requires to be pre-booked is the Colosseum & Roman Forum Guided Tour. On your free day in Rome, why not take a guided walking tour of the stunning Colosseum and visit the ruins of the ancient Roman Forum? Accompanied by a local tour guide, learn the history behind the stunning buildings that once stood in the centre of Rome. Included is the entrance ticket as well as the services of the local guide. This excursion must be booked at least 20 days prior to the start of the tour. This is due to the high demand for tickets. This excursion is subject to availability and is non-refundable. The rest are booked on tour through the Tour Leader and can be paid in cash or via credit/debit card.

Asked on January 12th, 2025can you please let me know if we can have our tour in mid July What would be the itinerary and the cost for me and my daughter who is 15 years old
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written January 2025
We do not offer this tour for July (as it is a peak season for tours on the region). Instead, we have another Tour offerd for the region around that month, and you may check the itinerary and available tours in Tour Radar. You just have to search for Italy Tours, then filter the month and the operator (Expat Explore), to see other options.

Asked on January 2nd, 2025Does this mean the tour is really about the bus driving through each landmark or attractions staying for an hour and then going to the next? That 50 people is a lot for a group, too large a group to even hear anything from the guide via blue-tooth earing device.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written January 2025
We believe the best way to get to the heart and soul of a city is on foot, surrounded by the people and the culture. For this reason, we do walking tours through most of the cities we visit. This means that Yes there will be a couple of stops in each city to conduct the walking tours (which could last upto 3 Hours). The maximum capacity is 48 Pax (2 spaces are allocated for the Driver and the Tour Leader) and so far, we do not have any negative reactions from our previous travelers for this capacity in terms of hearing discussions during the tour.
