Asked on May 3rd, 2025Could you please let me know if there is any support available for obtaining a visa to participate?

We are not a registered visa agency, we can not confirm what documentation would be required for you to apply for your visa. The only supporting documents we offer for your visa application to the embassy is: Travel Document (includes a visa letter and Purchase statement) and Visa Program (hotels and tour itinerary). These are only available once full payment has been received and your tour is 90 days from departure.

Traveler•Written April 2025What is the group size?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written April 2025
We do not have Senior Discounts for our tours but any Discounts or promotions are reflected on the Tour Radar website and would show on each departure for a specific tour. Our Tour Package includes accommodations for Twin Share Rooms and this means that solo travelers will be assigned a roommate of the same gender throughout the tour but we do offer a limited number of Single Supplements (for an added cost) for customers who do not wish to share a room. Our Tours has a maximum capacity of 48 Travelers per departure.

Asked on April 7th, 2025Could you please advise if this is something you can accommodate? If so, the traveller would appreciate it if you could provide a quote for a self-drive version of the tour, so they can decide whether they'd like to move forward with the booking.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written April 2025
This adventure by Expat Explore Travel cannot be booked as self guided as this is a set group itinerary.

Asked on April 6th, 2025Where do I input my travelers insurance information? I uploaded the documents but not sure that is where they belong. Also, how would I find out more about the Discover Dublin excursion as well as book it if I am interested?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written April 2025
To assist you properly—especially regarding where to input your travel insurance details—please send your message from your confirmed booking portal. That way, we can respond with the most accurate information related to your booking.

Alan
Asked on March 26th, 2025Would we be able to join the tour, even if we miss first day's activities?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written March 2025
You are welcome to join the tour even if you arrive late on August 10th. While you may miss the first day's activities, you can meet up with the group at the hotel or the next scheduled location. Just let us know your arrival details, and we'll do our best to assist you with any necessary arrangements.

Tim
Asked on March 20th, 2025I wanted to know the costs of the optional excursions please. And also what time do we need to be there on April 27th and can we depart any time on may 3rd?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written March 2025
The meeting time for the Irish Explorer tour on April 27th is 10:00 AM, though I'd recommend arriving a few minutes earlier to allow for a smooth check-in. The tour ends on May 3rd after breakfast, around 10:00 AM. If you need to leave earlier, that's perfectly fine—just let your tour leader know in advance. For optional excursions, pricing and availability may change, so I recommend checking the list on our website. While most excursions can be booked directly on tour, some need to be pre-booked as indicated on the website.

Tim
Traveler•Written March 2025Wanted to be sure i could budget them in. Now I need to see if I can find flights that work from Italy. I would most likely need to arrive on the 26th then, does the hotel where we are staying offer a special rate by any chance? If not where is it so i can try to find a hostel or hotel nearby. And how many people are in the group approximately?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written March 2025
Meeting Point: Louis Fitzgerald Hotel. Address: 1A Naas Rd, Newlands Cross, Dublin 22, D22 X5N7, Ireland. Meeting Time: 10:00 am. At the moment, there are no special rates for pre-accommodation at the starting hotel. However, you can check out the location to find nearby hostels or hotels that may suit your needs. As for the group size, there are currently 28 travelers booked for the tour, though this can change as new bookings are made.

Asked on March 20th, 2025Could I go through you or deal with the hotel direct for the night before and also for another night later in my trip? Will your price per night be less or the same than if I call the hotel direct? Please send your price for the night of April 26, 2025.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written March 2025
We are unable to assist in reserving pre and post-accommodation. You can explore options through our partner, Booking.com, which provides great rates and a variety of choices. You can check the hotel availability on April 26, or you can also contact the hotel directly.

Tiffany
Asked on March 14th, 2025What dates are the advertised tour at $1364?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written March 2025
May I ask if the 1,395 price that you see is shown in CAD? Just wanted to confirm since that is not the lowest price that I can see on my end. If it is in CAD, you can scroll down the tour page to see the available dates and find the departure that has that price.

Tiffany
Traveler•Written March 2025This tour is advertised at $1364 Cdn. What is the date that this tour price is for, I could not find it on the website?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written March 2025
If you go to the website and select the Irish Explorer tour, you'll see an option on the right side that says "Check Availability." Clicking on this will take you to the section where you can select a departure month. By default, it will show the upcoming departures along with a list of dates and their corresponding prices.
