We wish to join the tour until Warsaw only. What would be the price?

The tour is offered as a package, so the price remains the same even if you decide to travel with the group only until Warsaw. This means you are welcome to leave the tour in Warsaw if that works better for your plans, while still enjoying the tour with us up to that point.

Would it be possible to travel on this tour if she uses a walker?

Our tours do involve a significant amount of walking, typically around 2–3 hours at a time, as well as stairs, uneven surfaces, cobblestones, and extended periods on foot. Guests who use a walker are still welcome to join the tour; however, please note that on the coach we are only able to accommodate a cane, as space onboard is limited. We do strongly recommend a good level of mobility for comfort and ease throughout the itinerary, and a cane is generally more suitable than a walker given the pace of travel and sightseeing schedule.

Could you please provide us with the name of the accommodations and the price for a single room? Additionally, we'd like to know the costs for adding arrival and departure transfers.

At this stage, the departure is too far in advance for us to give you a confirmed list of hotels. Due to the fact that our hotels are subject to change, we do not provide inaccurate information beforehand to minimize any confusion that may be caused. We therefore suggest reaching out roughly 90 days prior for this information. The price of the Single Room Upgrade for this tour and departure is at 1,435 USD. Regrettably, we can no longer assist with transfers. We recommend using public transport for airport-to-hotel transportation. If you prefer a transfer service, you can easily book through Welcome Pickups, a user-friendly platform with competitive prices.

is there an optional excursion from Oslo to go to Fam or Gudvangen to see the Fiords ? It will ab a shame not to see the Fijords in Norway.

At this time, our Northern Explorer itinerary is fixed, and there is no optional excursion from Oslo to Flam or Gudvangen included in the program. However, the itinerary does include visits to Norway's stunning fjords, ensuring you still get to experience the breathtaking scenery the region is famous for.

Do you have any availability on this tour from Sept 10-27?

For the dates you're asking about, 10–27 September 2025, we don't have a departure available. The closest option we can offer is 17 September – 4 October 2025.

Will be 81 years of age. Request an exception.

We absolutely welcome travelers of all ages, including those who are 81. That said, please note that this tour involves moderate physical activity, including walking tours that may last 2–3 hours on uneven surfaces, and some hotels may not have elevators. For safety and comfort, we ask that all travelers are fit enough to manage these activities independently. If mobility could be a concern, we recommend bringing a companion who can assist as our tour leaders are not able to provide physical support. You may also want to discuss your travel plans with your doctor to ensure this tour is a good fit for you.

My partner will be 79 at time if travel, apparently over the recommended age of 75. He is very fit and healthy for his age.

We do recommend our tours for travelers aged 75 and under, but we are happy to welcome travelers over this age as long as they are fit, healthy, and able to manage the physical demands of the tour. This includes being able to walk for extended periods (up to 2–3 hours during walking tours), board and exit the coach independently (as there are no lifts and the steps can be higher than usual), and carry your own luggage.

Do you happen to know the hotel in Amsterdam for the start of the tour, and the end of the tour we may stay extra days

Holiday Inn Express Amsterdam Schiphol is the starting point. Hotels may be subject to change. Final confirmation on hotels will be emailed 10-15 Days before the tour starts.

How many travellers are on this tour?

Currently, there are 22 Travelers who have booked the September 17, 2025 Departure. The maximum capacity of this tour is 48 Pax and we are anticipating more travelers to book the tour soon.

Is accommodation booked in the hotel the night before the tour starts in Amsterdam?

No, the included accommodation for our tour will start on the evening of Day 1. If customers arrive in the starting city a day early, they will have to arrange their Accommodations.

The Northern Explorer is a fast based trip covering about 10 destinations in 18days. There is a lot of early mornings and late nights in summer, but you catch up with your sleep on the bus. Met some really amazing people and had a really good time. Got perfect weather, nice sunny long days. There were too many optional dinners/ lunches in my opinion. It would have been nicer to have just one or two. Vegetarian options in these included were sometimes not the best. Meat eaters always got a choice between two options, but for vegetarians the choice was one and that means you had no choice. Both the tour guide and driver were excellent and bonded really well with the group.Show more

Shae (Guide) & Hans (Driver - excellent. (a) Good idea - Seat rotation on bus. (b) Good idea - Asking person behind if okay to put seat back towards them. (c) Some hotels had fairly loud music playing even at night - had to go outside just to talk and hear each other. Did ask person at reception to turn down a bit but nothing. (d) Bad idea - Music on bus. Many just want to relax, view the landscape a take photos. Music encourages some to whistle and/or sing aloud making the noise even louder. (e) Mob Phone FaceTime - Suggest it should be banned on bus. Gets very noisy with a few punters face-timing. Rude to others. (f) Generally good hotels. Some had no Air Cond with hot weather. Sometimes you just want to kick back in your room and relax in the cool.Show more

I had an amazing time. A brief period to see each of the cities and countries on offer. But you were definitely able to have enough exposure to know where you would want to come back and explore in more depth. I enjoyed almost everything included. I didn't do many of the optionals. I enjoyed the buffet on the cruise. There was only one included meal I didn't like and it was collective. The tour leader is well aware and they have already made adjustments for future tours. We had Will for our leader. He was engaging, supportive, informative and passionate about his job. I like almost all of the hotels, some even had gyms, or a pool or a sauna. It is a long time on the bus, but it gives you a chance to see the countryside and smaller places you otherwise wouldn't see. I adored Copenhagen (and wish we had another day there). The old town of Estonia. And Poland. There is quite a lot of walking involved in these tours. While they do make adjustments sif you aren't capable of this. I would recommend being well prepared for 3 hours walking tours.Show more

They tour is very fast paced. Spend most of the time in the bus. I would say the tour is 17 days since the 2 nd last day is driving back from Berlin to Amsterdam and that takes a whole day. I would recommend for pple to take a flight back because it’s very tiring . The hotels are ok except for Vilnius Lithuania where the hotel was like a jail cell. The washroom smelled of urine and the bed only has a box spring. Breakfast has no selection and food looked old. Almost everyone got sick on the bus. I don’t know if the air conditioning has a hepa filter . 1 person was hospitalized before the tour ended with respiratory distress another person had to be seen by the doctor at the hotel and right after the tour had to be hospitalized as well. Like I said almost everyone from the tour ended up with some kind of respiratory infection during the tour. It’s really bad when pple are sick on the bus and there is no sanitation station or even protocols for Covid. I suggest that the bus should be sanitized everyday and the handles at the front and back door sanitized every time there is a comfort stop. The bus doesn’t have WIFI and the bathroom is only used for emergency so you have a comfort stop every 2-21/2 hrs. Branden the tour leader was good he did his research since it’s his first time leading the Scandinavian tour. He informed us and gave us insight of the cities we were visiting and the monuments . The check in at the hotels were efficient. The overnight ferry was decent and the ferry to Estonia was brand new, really nice. The local guided tour was good except for Finland.The guide treated us like children. We saw some beautiful cities but not enough time spend in others like Hamburg we basically just drove by. Overall , we got a taste of cities / countries we want to visit again.Show more

  Traveler•Written June 2026
  However I dont understand why you cant match a price that I got directly from your own website. Please explain why you wouldnt honor your own web site it dosnt make scense. When I priced out the tour on your web site it allowed me to apply this promo code TLMATT that gave a discount of $481.50 for a total of $12,878.50 for 2 single rooms. If I book the tour thru TourRadar there is no option to add the promo code so the total price is $13,360
- Travel Chasers formerly Expat ExploreOperator•Written June 2026
  The promo code TLMATT is a promotion offered exclusively by Expat Explore for bookings made directly through the Expat Explore website. As TourRadar operates as a separate booking platform, promotional codes that are specific to direct Expat Explore bookings cannot be applied to reservations made through TourRadar.
  
  This is why you were able to achieve a lower total when pricing the tour directly on the Expat Explore website, while the TourRadar booking reflects the standard TourRadar pricing without the direct-booking promotional discount.

  At this stage, the departure is too far in advance for us to give you a confirmed list of hotels. Due to the fact that our hotels are subject to change, we do not provide inaccurate information beforehand to minimize any confusion that may be caused. We therefore suggest reaching out roughly 90 days prior for this information.
  
  The price of the Single Room Upgrade for this tour and departure is at 1,435 USD.
  
  Regrettably, we can no longer assist with transfers. We recommend using public transport for airport-to-hotel transportation. If you prefer a transfer service, you can easily book through Welcome Pickups, a user-friendly platform with competitive prices.

- Travel Chasers formerly Expat ExploreOperator•Written July 2025
  We absolutely welcome travelers of all ages, including those who are 81. That said, please note that this tour involves moderate physical activity, including walking tours that may last 2–3 hours on uneven surfaces, and some hotels may not have elevators. For safety and comfort, we ask that all travelers are fit enough to manage these activities independently. If mobility could be a concern, we recommend bringing a companion who can assist as our tour leaders are not able to provide physical support. You may also want to discuss your travel plans with your doctor to ensure this tour is a good fit for you.

  We do recommend our tours for travelers aged 75 and under, but we are happy to welcome travelers over this age as long as they are fit, healthy, and able to manage the physical demands of the tour. This includes being able to walk for extended periods (up to 2–3 hours during walking tours), board and exit the coach independently (as there are no lifts and the steps can be higher than usual), and carry your own luggage.

  If your flight arrives at 7:15 AM and tour meeting is at 10:00 AM, it should be doable but tight. Consider travel time from airport, customs, baggage. We suggest arriving the day before to be well-rested and avoid rushing.
