    Transport
    • Explore!OperatorWritten February 2026

      For this tour, all logistics are arranged and managed by our local Explore office, who coordinate every aspect of the trip on the ground for our groups. This includes organizing the private transportation used between destinations. Rather than working with a single standalone private bus company, our local team contracts trusted, licensed transport providers they work with regularly for our group tours. This ensures vehicles and drivers meet our standards and are scheduled in line with the group itinerary. For rail journeys, tickets are arranged in advance by our local office using the appropriate national rail operators for each sector of the trip.
