- Maher· August 16th, 2025The tour was very good with a little modification would be excellent. For example hotel in swisserland has no lift with very small room. Also, it would great if it included a stop in Vienna and see the opera house instead of the dancing show which was not worth the money for that option.Show moreTrip date: August 2025
- Sara· August 16th, 2025Awesome experience! Tour leader and bus driver were amazing, everything was well organized from beginning to end.Show moreTrip date: July 2025
- Barbara· August 3rd, 2025There was not enough time to visit each country and way too much time on bus. We had less then an hour for the bus to go bathroom, eat and shop. That was not enough time to do all of it. Felt to much rushing to complete things. There was hotels that had terrible food for breakfast and location for hotels was close to towns or restaurants or subway or trains or busesShow moreTrip date: July 2025
- Sotiri· July 27th, 2025The locations are amazing but brief. Lots of time spent on a bus stuck in traffic. Hotels range from great to subpar. Hotel locations range from good to to far out. Food was mostly subpar and minimal. If you’re a vegan don’t waste your time. If a vegetarian or omnivore/carnivore you’ll be disappointed.Show moreTrip date: July 2025

Traveler•Written July 2025Will there be any issue returning to Amsterdam on September 10?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written July 2025
The Tour Program (Finalized Itinerary with the Hotels that are booked for the tour) is sent out to travelers 10-15 Days before the tour starts. As of now, the Hotels are still under "Contracted" status as the bookings for them are in the process of being completed, so the list is still subject to change.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written July 2025
For the Coach, it is a Comfortable Modern Coach and can accommodate any Tour Group at Full Capacity without being "Cramped".
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written July 2025
The tour ends on September 11 and on the 10th, the group will be staying in Paris. If a customer wishes to cut the tour short by a day, that would be fine, but you will have to arrange the transportation.

Asked on July 5th, 2025Need more info for the first day and whether ther is an airport transfer to hotel
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written July 2025
On Day 1 of the tour, the Itinerary is Packed from the Meet Up Time (10AM) until the Canal Cruise that ends at around 3PM and then you can either Join the Optional Excursion offered for the rest of the day, or Take it as a Free Time and enjoy the city on your own. Regrettably, we can no longer assist with transfers and it is not included in the package. We recommend using public transport for airport-to-hotel transportation.

Asked on June 27th, 2025Can you assist us with getting an accommodation from September 17 to 18 and then September 25 to 26 for the September 18 to 25 European Vistas tour?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
Our tour packages include accommodation only for the nights listed on the itinerary. We do not offer pre- or post-tour accommodation, so these would need to be arranged and booked separately by you.

Chris
Asked on June 26th, 2025The person I am travelling with is 78 years old and you have a limit of 75. She is in very good shape. Just did the hike to Machu Picchu. I don't see anything strenuous on this trip. Could she please be given an exception.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
We completely understand your concern, and we're happy to reassure you that we have a very wide range of ages on our tours. In fact, we don't restrict our travelers based on age at all — a positive attitude and an open mind are far more important than a number! It's wonderful to hear that she recently completed the hike to Machu Picchu — that's incredibly impressive and speaks volumes about her energy and spirit. As long as she feels comfortable with the itinerary, we'd be delighted to have her join the adventure!

Traveler•Written June 2025One passenger is 80 years old but your itenerary say age till 70 or 75 can he still join?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
Travelers over 75 years old are welcome to join our tours, including those who are 80. However, it's important to note that our itineraries can include long days, walking tours (sometimes on uneven ground), fast-pace - up to 3 hours, and steps or stairs at certain accommodations. As such, all travelers must be fit and mobile enough to manage independently, without assistance from the Tour Leader or fellow passengers.
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
Yes, the group will board the Coach daily from the Hotel and whenever there is a need to go to certain locations. Basically, what we offer are Coach Tours so it is used as primary transportation, and customers are also transported back to the Hotel in the evening.

Asked on June 7th, 2025wondering if there was a possibility of a group discount for booking for 6 guests?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
Currently, the discounts offered for our Tours are indicated on the Tour Radar Tour Page and it shows on which departures certain discounts are offered. We currently do not offer group discounts. Additionally, you listed the composition of your group as 4 Children and 2 Adults. Please note that minors need to be paired with an adult within your same group and that would mean that if there are 4 minors, the group needs to also have at least 4 Adults since the accommodations are only Twin-Share Rooms (2 Pax each).

Robin
Traveler•Written June 2025do 17 year olds class as minors?
- Expat Explore TravelOperator•Written June 2025
When it comes to our adventures, a 17-year-old is indeed considered a minor at the time of travel.
