What travelers are saying

"This was the first organized tour my husband and I have ever joined, so we were not sure what to expect , but it turned out to be the best vacation we've ever had. The scenery and food were amazing. We stayed in beautiful hotels. Most of the riding was on paved bike paths so we hardly ever had to deal with car traffic. Our leaders, Andrea and Martin, were funny, informative , and so helpful. We are already planning to go back to Italy with VBT this summer."

What travelers are saying

"Lead by one of the most knowledgeable guides I’ve ever experienced in 40 years of travelling, this full on trip takes you to places in Turkey that many will never visit. Tour Leader Zafer’s passion for Greek, Roman and Ottoman history shone through on a tour which combined the best of Turkey’s historical sites and standout places of interest. Highlights galore, from the beautiful Blue Mosque, hundreds of drifting balloons in the Cappadocia early morning skies to the tragedy of seeing first hand relatively recent history in the form of the killing fields of Gallipoli. If you come expecting a relaxing 5*holiday experience, you should book an all-inclusive holiday to Marmaris. But if you want to dive headlong into a vibrant, colourful country that has been at the forefront of ancient and modern history this 14 day exploration maybe for you especially as we encountered so many exciting surprises along the way. Remember though, travelling over 2,500km does mean there are a number of early starts and long hours in a minibus, which can be hard. However, we were lucky in that our group of 8 intrepid travellers got on well and time passed quickly. Finally, a quick mention for the hotels selected by Explore. They were in the main pretty good 3 star centrally located tourist hotels. Most were small, family owned and whilst not bar one highly starred, they acted as good stopover hotels providing the basics of a good bed, warm shower and a breakfast which set you up for the day. All in all, a trip I would recommend especially in May when the Summer sun has not reached its peak."

Banff National Park Tour Selection Trips

  • Banff National Park is quite expansive, and tours will typically involve a lot of walking, from easy to moderate. Pack light and bring lots of water.
  • If you're a photographer, get ready for some spectacular photo opportunities! Especially early in the morning and dusk, you'll be in heaven.
  • Not all tours will involve high adventure. If that's not your thing, but you want to explore the park, there will be multiple tours you can enjoy that go at an easier pace.
  • As with any national park visit, keep up to date on the official wildlife watches (particularly to do with bears in the Rocky Mountains) and weather reports - there is an active avalanche watch on the official park website for Banff National Park
