AMAZING TOUR DIRECTOR-Christian Adolph This tour was spectacular for one reason alone, Christian Adolph!!!! He was absolutely incredible!!! He had an amazing itinerary planned for us and then as travel always does, when changes needed to be made, he was flexible, quick, and always positive. He made sure we had the experience of a lifetime. He is extremely knowledgeable and so personable. He took care of us every step of the way and went over and above what was expected of him. We literally cried when we parted ways with him at the airport.

Group size and the time dedicated for shopping were a downer I did not like the large group size. Traveling with a group of 48 in Japan is not feasible or fair to the tour leader and the rest of the group. Getting 48 people off a train in less than a minute is not feasible. I also did not like all of the time alloted to shopping. The trip to Odaiba felt like a wasted day. My students went to Japan to learn about Japan, not to attend a science museum and go to a mall and eat at an American buffet. On the positive side, the guide was very knowledgeable, the hotels and hotel breakfasts were perfect, and the visits to the gardens and temples and market were great.

The Trip of a Lifetime From the time we boarded the plane until we step back off to go through customs in America, Explorica was outstanding. They dot their “i’s” and cross their “T’s” to ensure that it is a worry free experience that is filled with learning, growing and excitement!

Switzerland, Bavaria and Austria tour My trip coordinator, Haley Similjan and Claudia Ayala were helpful and patient. Haley even worked with me through Covid, which I'm sure wasn't an easy task! Our tour guide, Ehren Fordyce, was professional, fun, relaxed and informative. He made everything work smoothly, and didn't stress anyone out

Explorica and the Galapagos Islands… Explorica and the Galapagos Islands Tour I just got back from a 10 day guided tour of the Galapagos Islands with Explorica. These islands are very difficult to navigate between and Explorica managed our group of 35 people with efficiency and ease. Because the difficult parts of the trip were organized like this, our group members could enjoy the beauty and wonder of the Galapagos Islands without worries. Well done, Explorica! We will use you again!
