If I book a shared room, but you cannot match me with another traveler, would I be required to pay Single Supplement?

Yes, we always aim to match solo travellers who select shared accommodation with another traveller of the same gender. If, in the unlikely event that we are unable to match you with another traveller, you would not be required to pay a single supplement. The price would remain the same, and you would simply have the room to yourself.

we two want classic Europe tour. seniors 65 and 70 yrs us citizen vegetarian. but we want pick up and drop from any london airport what you suggest. pl advise

We'd be happy to advise you on the airport pickup and drop-off options once you have a confirmed booking with us. However, as your departure is still some time away, the hotels used for the tour have not yet been confirmed. Our hotels are arranged closer to the departure date and are subject to change. At this stage, we suggest reaching out approximately 90 days prior to departure, when we can provide the confirmed starting hotel details. As we do not arrange airport transfers directly, we can also advise you on the available options once your hotel details are confirmed. We'd also like to mention that our tours are generally fast-paced and involve a fair amount of walking. Some walking portions may last up to around 2.5 hours, with stops in between. We recommend considering this when deciding whether the tour is suitable for you.

Please can I have some discount as I already booked this tour in 2024 and paid full amount and couldn't travel because of Schengen visa

I completely understand, especially as you had previously booked the tour but were unable to travel due to your Schengen visa. May I confirm if you were referring to our Return Traveller Discount? This discount is offered to travellers who have previously travelled with Expat Explore. Eligible returning travellers can receive 10% off future tours when booking directly with Expat Explore. Please note that the Return Traveller Discount is only available for bookings made directly with Expat Explore and cannot be applied to bookings made through TourRadar, travel agents, online resellers, or deal websites. Our tours are already priced very competitively, and we always aim to offer our travellers the best possible value for their money. I hope this helps clarify how the Return Traveller Discount works.

Is it possible for us to remain in the last tour i would say Amsterdam? Do you pick us up from the airport?

Yes, you can choose to end your trip in Amsterdam instead of continuing with the tour back to London. We can arrange this for you, although please note that there would be no refund for any unused portions of the tour. Airport transfers are not included, so you would need to arrange your own transfer to or from the airport.

Does it include flight from usa?

Flights from the USA are not included in the tour package. You would need to arrange your international flights separately.

The Classic Europe is by bike yes?

No, what we offer are Coach Tours and this includes the Classic Europe Tour. On the tour, our own Coaches are used as the primarily means of transport.

sorry we are not booking but wonder if you still have the Sept/2024 classic brochure? If so, can you forward it? we did that trip with you but seem to have misplaced the brochure. Always cool to see the places we stopped.

I'll check with our relevant team to see if they still have a copy of the September 2024 Classic brochure. If it's available, I'll be happy to have it forwarded to you.

Is it possible to add Barcelona to the itinerary after the Classic Europe trip?

Currently, we do not offer any customizations on this tour. However, we do have another tour that is called the Highlights of Spain & Portugal Tour and may have a schedule that fits to their travel preference. At the same time, it is a full 9 Day Tour instead of an extra itinerary.

Is there a lot of long or hard walking on the tours. Do you go inside the attractions or just drive by can you arrange airfare to be included from our city

For our Classic Europe tour, there is some walking involved, as the itinerary includes opportunities to get off the coach and explore various destinations. The amount of walking will vary depending on the destination and activities you choose. The tour is not simply a drive-by experience. It includes a combination of driving tours, guided and orientation tours, and time to explore destinations on foot. For example, the itinerary includes a driving tour of Paris, a guided tour of Florence, orientation tours in Innsbruck and Munich, and time to explore places such as Beaune, Venice and Ghent. There are also optional excursions available throughout the tour, such as the Thames, Towers & Tastes excursion in London, Top of Europe in the Swiss Alps, Taste of Tuscany, Conquer the Capital in Rome, and Evening in Venice. Some sightseeing is therefore done from the coach, while other activities involve getting out and exploring or participating in an included or optional experience. The itinerary does not indicate that every attraction is entered, so this will depend on the specific sightseeing or excursion. Regarding airfare, flights are not included in the tour, so flights from your home city would need to be arranged separately.

Can you please confirm if this 15‐day Classic Europe tour is operating from 4 September 2026 to 18 September 2026, starting in London?

We don't have a Classic Europe departure on those dates. The available departure we have is 6 September to 19 September 2026, which is the 15-day Classic Europe tour starting in London.

My personal booking was for me and my husband who have the same last name in a shared room obviously. But, for some unknown reason, someone at your agency decided to seperate us and instead put me with my single friend who did not pay for an upgrade single room and then put my husband with a total stranger. WTF? We complained immediately to our guide and were told that the issue got resolved. However, what they actually did was give my single friend the larger room by herself and gave us all small twin bed rooms throughout our trip! Someone needs to be held accountable for this huge mistake. I mean our booking choices were not considered by any means. We would like an explanation. Several hotels were in very shady areas with graffiti everywhere, garbage, urine, and the feeling we were in a ghetto. Some very small and uncomfortable to say the least. I'd rather pay a bit more to feel safe. Everyone on our trip complained about this. It wasn't right. Food options for groups in most places were not the best and our first lunch we had as a group in London, made me so sick. Some restaurants were overwhelmed by all of us too. They didn't seem prepared. Our driver was awesome. Our guide was very nice but could have provided more info at times and it would have been extremely helpful to be given local maps beforehand with directions to locations to see nearby. Often we were just quickly told about whats around, given the briefest of briefs on direction info and sent on our way. Our phones weren't working so we felt helpless to go out on our own several times and often the locals could not help due to a language barrier. We missed out on alot!! So, this wasn't "guided" touring by any means!!! It was being driven to a location, dumped out and you're off to figure something out and hopefully you'll make it back before the bus leaves you. Also, had we been told before hand that our guide was not legally allowed to do guiding in certain countries, we never would have signed up. False advertisement on the part of the Tour business. This was more like paying for the bus transportation rather than an actual guided tour most of the time. Also, the long travel times on the bus should be noted. We had no idea we'd be on the bus for hours and hours at a time daily with few exceptions. For our first trip with this tour company, we weren't impressed sadly. Things could be much better if the travel company took more time to provide adequate accommodations, actually review travel companions choices, provide maps, and inform travelers as much as possible of what to actually expect.Show more

Thank you for taking the time to share your detailed feedback. We're truly sorry to hear that your first experience with us fell short of expectations. We understand how frustrating the rooming arrangements must have been, particularly as you and your husband had booked to share a room. We also regret hearing about your concerns regarding the accommodation, meals, travel times and the level of guidance provided throughout the tour. Your feedback is important to us, and we'd especially like our Customer Service team to investigate the rooming arrangements and provide clarity on what happened. Could you please email info@expatexplore.com with your booking reference and details of your experience so our team can look into your concerns further? We appreciate you highlighting both the positive aspects of your trip and the areas where we could have done better. We're sorry we didn't deliver the experience you had hoped for

We had a marvellous time. A lot of travelling and walking but worth it to see everything that you see. We had a wonderful driver in Piotr (who asked us to call him Peter), how he manages to navigate some of those streets he did we are still in awe.

Hello just completed our classic Europe tour and was very happy from start to finish. I think the most important thing on a tour is the guide. Luckily we had an amazing lady(LARA FEINSTEIN) she worked tirelessly everyday to keep the whole group happy and safe. Im sure all the group would agree Lara made our trip more memorable. Would highly recommend Tour Radar for a trip abroad and if your lucky you might get Lara. Also a special mention for the Bus Driver CSABA. He worked so hard loading and unloading our heavy luggage and kept us safe on some hectic roads with his exceptional driving. The 2 of them were a great team always working together to make a smooth timely trip. Thanks again Mark & Linda XShow more

Me and my hubby just finished the 14 day Classic Europe tour. Our tour leader Lara was very professional, nice, helpful, approachable, accommodating, cool and outgoing.

I would be happy to have them both again and both of them are highly recommendable.Show more

We’ve just finished the 14-day Classic Europe tour and honestly couldn’t recommend it more highly. From start to finish, the experience was seamless, fun and incredibly well organised. A huge part of that was our sensational tour leader, Lara. Her warmth, organisation, knowledge and genuine care for everyone on the tour made such a difference. She went above & beyond in so many ways, always adding those thoughtful personal touches and making sure everyone felt looked after. Lara has a personality that simply lights up a tour,her hard work never went unnoticed, and we feel incredibly lucky to have had her leading our group. And a massive thank you to Csaba, our highly skilled driver, who navigated us safely through countless countries, roads and situations with calmness and precision. Not only is he an incredibly capable driver, but he’s also an all-round great guy. The itinerary gave us the perfect taste of so many incredible European destinations, while the organisation took away the stress of trying to coordinate everything ourselves. Travelling as a family with two 10-year-olds, we were especially impressed with how easy and enjoyable the whole experience was. Thank you Travel Chasers, Lara and Csaba for an incredible 14 days. We’d do it all again in a heartbeat! 🇫🇷🇨🇭🇮🇹🇩🇪🇳🇱❤️Show more

Emma and Roby are two wonderful and amazing people. They both placed the wellbeing and happiness of the travelers first and utmost. Emma is a walking -talking encyclopedia with the knowledge of university professor that provides visionary aspect to the next stop which instills greater anticipation of joy. Roby is an exceptional professional who goes far beyond driving the coach. He is quite personable and makes every effort to make one feel safe while he maneuvers a very large vehicle traffic and very narrow streets. The tour was truly enjoyable mostly due to these two exceptional individuals.Show more

  Yes, we always aim to match solo travellers who select shared accommodation with another traveller of the same gender.
  
  If, in the unlikely event that we are unable to match you with another traveller, you would not be required to pay a single supplement. The price would remain the same, and you would simply have the room to yourself.

  We'd be happy to advise you on the airport pickup and drop-off options once you have a confirmed booking with us. However, as your departure is still some time away, the hotels used for the tour have not yet been confirmed. Our hotels are arranged closer to the departure date and are subject to change. At this stage, we suggest reaching out approximately 90 days prior to departure, when we can provide the confirmed starting hotel details. As we do not arrange airport transfers directly, we can also advise you on the available options once your hotel details are confirmed. We'd also like to mention that our tours are generally fast-paced and involve a fair amount of walking. Some walking portions may last up to around 2.5 hours, with stops in between. We recommend considering this when deciding whether the tour is suitable for you.

  So for the current classic europe travel trip. I have a schengen visa with port of entry to spain. I have already travelled to spain on the first port of entry and my schengen is valid until 19th of November. Also I have a travel insurance. Is there anytime else I need to take with me or anything or any details that I need to provide?
- Travel Chasers formerly Expat ExploreOperator•Written September 2026
  For your Classic Europe tour, the itinerary includes the United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, the Netherlands and Belgium.
  
  For the Schengen countries on your itinerary, your valid Schengen visa should cover your travel, provided that it is valid for the dates of your trip and meets the conditions of your visa. Please bring your valid passport, Schengen visa and travel insurance details with you.
  
  Please also note that the United Kingdom has separate entry requirements, as it is not part of the Schengen Area. Depending on your nationality, you may need either a UK visa or an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) before travelling to the UK. An ETA is only available to eligible nationalities, while nationals who require a UK visa must obtain the appropriate visa instead.
  
  As your tour starts and ends in London, please make sure you have the appropriate UK entry permission for your nationality before travelling.
  
  You may also wish to keep copies of your accommodation details, tour booking, return/onward travel information and travel insurance with you during the trip.
  
  Disclaimer: We are not visa specialists; this information is for general guidance only. Requirements vary by nationality. For official and up-to-date rules, always check with your local embassy or the relevant immigration authority before travelling.

- Travel Chasers formerly Expat ExploreOperator•Written September 2026
  Yes, you can choose to end your trip in Amsterdam instead of continuing with the tour back to London. We can arrange this for you, although please note that there would be no refund for any unused portions of the tour.
  
  Airport transfers are not included, so you would need to arrange your own transfer to or from the airport.

  Currently, we do not offer any customizations on this tour. However, we do have another tour that is called the Highlights of Spain & Portugal Tour and may have a schedule that fits to their travel preference. At the same time, it is a full 9 Day Tour instead of an extra itinerary.

  For our Classic Europe tour, there is some walking involved, as the itinerary includes opportunities to get off the coach and explore various destinations. The amount of walking will vary depending on the destination and activities you choose.
  
  The tour is not simply a drive-by experience. It includes a combination of driving tours, guided and orientation tours, and time to explore destinations on foot. For example, the itinerary includes a driving tour of Paris, a guided tour of Florence, orientation tours in Innsbruck and Munich, and time to explore places such as Beaune, Venice and Ghent.
  
  There are also optional excursions available throughout the tour, such as the Thames, Towers & Tastes excursion in London, Top of Europe in the Swiss Alps, Taste of Tuscany, Conquer the Capital in Rome, and Evening in Venice.
  
  Some sightseeing is therefore done from the coach, while other activities involve getting out and exploring or participating in an included or optional experience. The itinerary does not indicate that every attraction is entered, so this will depend on the specific sightseeing or excursion.
  
  Regarding airfare, flights are not included in the tour, so flights from your home city would need to be arranged separately.
