      Brian's Explore experience:

      Adventure holidays best for solo travellers

      Whichever corner of the globe you're yet to discover, let Explore take you there with a huge range of inspiring trips and unforgettable adventures. From leisurely walking holidays in Europe, to more adventurous yet fully guided trips to South East Asia or Africa, Explore will help you discover those places you've always wanted to visit, at your own pace and with plenty of time to absorb the culture and scenery of each destination.

      Active holidays ideal for solo travellers

      Our highly popular European walking holidays are popular with single travellers over 60, and you can choose from a range of trip paces to suit you. On each trip you and your fellow travellers will be guided by one of our expert leaders with plenty of free time to spend taking in the views and culture or however you wish along the way.

      Our best-selling Amalfi Coast Walking trip celebrates Italy's spectacular natural beauty, taking you on the famous 'Walk of the Gods' with plenty of breaks to enjoy delicious local cuisine (and of course, fine Italian wine) along the way. Or on our Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania on Foot walking trip to Eastern Europe, we'll guide you around the three Baltic states, revealing their fascinating cultural heritage, UNESCO Heritage Sites and also giving you the opportunity to learn how to 'bog walk'.
       

      For those who prefer to explore on two wheels, take a look at our group cycling tours that are ideal for those who enjoy bicycle travel without tackling challenging terrain. Whether you'd like to go Cycling in the Baltic States, where you'll breeze past coastal landscapes and explore castles or journey from Porto to Lisbon where you'll be spellbound by the authentic sights, scents and sounds of Portugal, we'll take care of everything - including your bike or ebike - so all you have to do is arrive, and enjoy.
