Adventure Travel

Explore has announced its newest offering: an alternative city tour of Lima. Whereas every other tour of the Peruvian capital almost entirely stays ‘downtown’, this new excursion – the brain child of local Explore tour leader Nilton Bedrinana – is designed to avoid the tourist hordes.

Explore are the only company offering you the chance to discover the Top 10 Emerging Destinations as determined by the 2010 Wanderlust Travel Awards. This is great testament to our variety of destinations and our pioneering spirit.

Here at Explore we came up with the idea of launching a new 7 wonders list that is all about great travel experiences, how we enjoy places and experiences rather than just the sites themselves.

There’s a Swedish proverb that says ‘Those who wish to sing, always find a song.’ But when there are so many songs to choose from, it can sometimes be hard to find exactly the one that suits. We have over 500 tours on this website and appreciate you might need a guiding hand.

Tourism Concern campaigns to ensure that ‘tourism benefits the local people’ all over the world and gives a voice to small communities who might not otherwise be heard. Explore has supported this organisation on a variety of initiatives and admires the work they have done in raising awareness on many issues such as porters rights in the Himalayas, on the Inca Trail in Peru and at Mount Kilimanjaro, Tanzania.

Adventure holidays aren’t as expensive as you think. In fact, our special formula means that they are really great value.
