“I have just returned from the Turquoise Coast where I had the most enjoyable eight days. I wanted to write to tell you that the Tour Leader was absolutely the right person for this job. He was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and great fun. A real credit to the company. I am reading my brochure now to see about booking another trip in September. Many of our fellow travellers had been on other Explore trips and were most complimentary about their experiences so I am pleased to have discovered your brochure.” MM.

Leading adventure tours for Explore is so much more than being a guide or a “rep”. Though there may be local guides on some tours, our leaders usually work solo and this means taking full responsibility for the well-being of our customers from when they arrive in the country right through to the end of their tour including: •Providing information on the countries visited •Looking after clients’ health and personal problems •Arranging a variety of activities – sometimes including transport, accommodation and camp meals •Working with local crew. It’s not just about ensuring that the logistics of the tour work smoothly, but also that clients fly home feeling that they have had an enlightening experience, having learnt more about a particular destination than they would on a “normal” package tour.

It is the Tour Leader that really makes that difference. There are many rewards for a tour leader that are great too. We have many tour leaders who stay leading for many, many years.

The recruitment process is very demanding inorder to get the best staff.
