Looking for a tour that begin in London the 22 is posible to catch the 23 in Paris? How much will be the fíds Igor 2 pax?

We do offer the Classic Europe tour starting and ending in London. The exact pricing for 2 travellers will vary depending on the specific travel month and availability at the time of booking.

Do you go to any or the Christmas Market Places on this tour. I am really looking for them.

This tour does not include specific Christmas market visits within the planned itinerary. However, depending on timing and local opening dates, you may have free time in cities such as Paris, Munich, Amsterdam, Bruges, and London where Christmas markets are often available. These are seasonal, not guaranteed, and will depend on your free time and the operational schedule on the day.

could you please let me know how many people on this tour? what is the full cost include air travel from Melbourne Return..... are their spots still available

At present, there are 7 seats still available on this departure. Expat Explore does not arrange flights on behalf of travelers. The tour cost covers all arrangements once on the ground, including accommodation, the included meals, sightseeing, and transportation during the tour.

Can you please list out all of your optional packages throughout this tour with the price and what it covers? Also can you list out what's not included in the price package eg. Entrance ticket to colosseum, etc.

Please send me the detailed itinerary and what's included (ground transport tickets, entrance tickets, meals - what type of cuisine, etc) and what's not included for me to be clear? Also including the traveling time so that I know how much time we are on the road? Are we taking the Euro train?

What city, town or village will we be spending Christmas Day in the Swiss Alps? Is anything going to be open?

The Tour will stay in Lenk on the Swiss Alps Leg of the tour. Though Hotels are booked closer to the departure, if the contracted Hotel in Lenk cannot be booked, the most likely alternate is a Hotel in Wilderswil. The group will shop on Christmas Eve and on the Free Day on Christmas Day, 2 Optionals are offered which will cover the entire day but if customers choose to Explore on their own, they may visit the town and find that a lot of shops are open on Christmas Day.

I'm an above-knee amputee, I use a prosthetic leg and a walking stick, and can't walk long distances, can I still join? is it gonna be convenient?

We believe the best way to get to the heart and soul of a city is on foot, surrounded by the people and the culture. For this reason, we do walking tours through most of the cities we visit. Many of the cities you visit are vast and old, often with steps and cobblestones. Our walking tours can last up to 3 hours with plenty of opportunities to take photographs and soak up the history of these fascinating places, but you do require a certain level of fitness to enjoy your tour to its fullest. If I were to assess, it might be too challenging for you to join our tours unfortunately.

I would like to know the name of the hotel

At this stage, your departure is too far in advance for us to give you a confirmed starting hotel. Due to the fact that our hotels are subject to change, we do not provide inaccurate information beforehand to minimize any confusion. We suggest reaching out roughly 90 days prior on your confirmed booking page for this information.

Dimos was an extremely professional and well organised tour guide throughout the entire experience. His time management was excellent, ensuring everything ran smoothly and stayed on schedule. He was approachable, helpful, and always willing to answer questions or provide assistance. Dimos demonstrated outstanding knowledge, sharing detailed explanations and interesting insights that greatly enhanced the tour. Everything was clearly communicated, and the experience was well planned from start to finish.

He really brought each destination to life and always communicated clearly and calmly. Nothing ever felt rushed, and he handled every detail with care and efficiency.

Thanks to our wonderful tour leader, Dimos, we had the best experience travelling through Europe that we could have hoped for. Dimos made sure everyone on the tour enjoyed themselves and went out of his way to keep everyone happy. Dimos was very well organised and he made sure we were always on time for everything we needed to see. We had a great group of Australians to travel with and the entire experience was simply wonderful. I would definitely love to travel with Dimos again as he was everything you need in a tour leader. Thank you so much Dimos, our amazing trip was down to you and I can't thank you enough.Show more

We recently returned from a 15‑day Europe holiday. From day one, Dimos set the tone with his warm personality, professionalism, and genuine passion for travel. He managed every detail seamlessly—transport, hotels, excursions—making the trip feel effortless for all of us. What stood out most was his deep knowledge of each destination. Whether we were wandering through historic streets, exploring iconic landmarks, or discovering hidden local gems, Dimos always had fascinating insights to share. He was also very attentive to the group’s needs. No request was ever too big or too small. His sense of humour and positive energy kept the group engaged and made every day enjoyable (Especially with our tour song - Shotgun). Thanks to Dimos, our 15‑day Europe adventure was not just a holiday but a truly memorable journey. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour leader, and we’d happily travel with him again.Show more

We had the best time exploring Europe for the first time. Things ran smoothly all the time ensuring that we saw everything that was scheduled on the itinerary. I think this was mostly due to our Tour Leader Dimos. From the minute we meet him we knew we were in great hands. Dimos was always willing to help us out with whatever we needed, nothing was too much trouble for him. On our last day it was very sad saying goodbye to him. He is remarkable at his job and I could only hope to do another tour with him one day. We wish him all the best with his future endeavours.Show more

Thanks to Dimos’s great organisation and time management, everything ran smoothly and we were able to get the most out of each location and activity. Dimos was a great tour leader.

Dimos was an exceptional tour leader and truly made this trip unforgettable. From the very beginning, he went above and beyond to ensure everyone felt supported, comfortable, and excited about each day ahead. His organisation, knowledge, and ability to manage a large group so seamlessly was incredibly impressive. He brought so much fun and energy to the journey, particularly during long travel days, while still remaining attentive and professional. Dimos consistently checked in on everyone, including on free days, remembered individual requests, listened to all opinions, and always did his best to make things happen. His warm, welcoming nature made everyone feel at ease, and he always had or found an answer to every question. Beyond the logistics, Dimos created an environment where the group genuinely connected. His encouragement, humour, and passion for what he does turned a great itinerary into an incredible experience. Thanks to Dimos, I’ve come home with memories that will last a lifetime, and I couldn’t recommend him more highly as a tour leader.Show more
