No responsibility This was my son’s first trip without his family. He went with two teachers and other students from his school. The experience of seeing other countries was amazing he says, but the travel was rushed and there were last minute hotel changes. He lost his passport at one of the hotels, and when it was located explorica did nothing to retrieve it. Mom, across the world, had to coordinate getting it back to him. That meant he missed coming home with the group. Our family had to pay for the return trip for him and his teacher. Which was almost as much as the entire trip. Trip insurance saysReturn airfare and passport shipment fee are not covered under the plan provisions. Our Family is beyond disappointed with explorica.

Our Explorica trip to Paris and the Cote… Our recent trip to Paris and the Cote d'Azur with 13 high school students was nothing short of extraordinary, and it was made all the more memorable thanks to our exceptional tour director. From start to finish, our experience was filled with adventure, learning, and unforgettable moments. Furthermore, what truly stood out about our tour director was his ability to form genuine connections with each student. From day one, he knew everyone's names and foster a friendly atmosphere that made us feel like more than just a tour group – we felt like a family. In conclusion, our experience with Explorica exceeded all expectations, and I highly recommend them to anyone considering educational travel. As a seasoned traveler with Explorica, I can confidently attest that their services continue to impress with each trip. Thank you Explorica.

Explorica arranged a return flight on a… Explorica arranged a return flight on a Friday that was canceled. It has been three days and the whole group is still stranded in Barcelona. There’s been no communication from Explorica and they have not arranged any flights as of yet… It has been three days of the girls just sitting in a hotel room waiting for a standby flight with no help.

Cheap Company Prior to the trip there were no issues. Upon arrival things seemed to be fine, however it was very rushed. We had issues with being early to events that needed less time and then many additional hours of sitting around in places that needed little time. We also encountered many issues with a specific Hotel. We were told that the hotels was in Switzerland and it is was actually in France. That wasn't as much of an issues as the fact that the hotel was dirty with bugs and small live animals. One room even had hair clippings in the sink and the bed. We were also not allowed any extra towels for the hotel because they were only a 2 star. The staff is extremely rude. The tour guide was stressed out what seemed most of the time and got lost. These things should never happen.

The main tour guide was amazing The main tour guide was amazing, kind, and so very helpful. The other tour guides and the drivers were great and did amazing jobs. Each hotel had good service and clean rooms. The first thing I would say that needed a little change was the meals that were chosen for dinners. I think people should be able to pick from 2 options before hand. So they know what they are getting for dinner meals. The other thing would be the overnight cruise, rooms were decent, meals not so good, and a long time waiting. But over all I had a wonderful time and enjoyed seeing the amazing historical sites.
