Iconic Attractions & Hidden Gem Travel Experiences

Around the World

A round-the-world trip is truly one of the most unforgettable travel experiences. Visiting multiple countries and continents, you gain a deep understanding of hundreds of cultures, and forge wonderful connections with people around the world. A small ship or ‘expedition’ cruise is one of the most popular modes of travel for a world trip. Also popular are Overland tours, which many young people opt for, both because of budget and the community style.

Budapest to Prague Adventure
Csilla was superb! So knowledgeable and friendly. A great guide on a brilliant trip. A good mix of mini bus travel and train, which gave us a view of local culture and real people. Lots of castles!

London to Istanbul Rail Adventure
The sense of distance and difference between the many countries visited. Every part of the trip was positive, filled with colour, scents, adventures, culture, relaxation and opening of horizons. The trip on the Sagan 8 railway through the Mokra Gora mountains was inspiring and particularly so learning about the dreams coming to fruition of those who believed in and restored it. Experiencing the food of the different countries was always a relaxing and exciting adventure. The overnight train from Plovdiv to Istanbul was fascinating, taught you much about your fellow travellers and the sheer sense of well-being as you lay on your bed watching the golden countryside roll by as daylight dawned was hard to beat. Our leader, Elena, was the perfect leader as not only was she knowledgeable, experienced and professional, but also kind, warm, empathetic and caring.

Inconsistent quality of hotels and local guides - while most met our expectations, a few were not up to standard. Our Explore leader was excellent and took great care of us throughout the trip.
