It's my 2nd Expat Explore experirnce. Had a great fun time with the tour. Our tour leader, Larry, always make it a point to address our concerns, and he's very informative. The driver, Leo, also did a great job. Fantastic tourmates as well with no issues. Such an ultimate experience of a lifetime. Highly recommended!
Awesome diverse scenery-the most fabulous snapshot of 3 countries This was an amazing trip that I had been thinking about doing for years. I am so glad I finally took the plunge, despite not being a regular cyclist. The trip is a superb "snapshot" of 3 beautiful countries where the scenery is diverse-think wildlife/exotic birds, beautiful beaches, laid-back atmosphere, extraordinary tropical forest greenery, colourful towns, lakes, volcanoes, mountains and wonderful colonial architecture. A good mix of biking and down-time!
We had three levels of cyclists in our group of three and all were very happy and were well taken care of. The weakest cyclist was never stressed out and could hop on the bus whenever they got tired. The strongest cyclist had a few opportunities to stretch their legs and go hard. The guide, bus driver and mechanic were all very helpful, friendly and knew their stuff. The hosts at the places we stayed were all great. The other tour groupies were super fun and interesting. I highly recommend a trip like this for anyone who wants a little adventure and wants to do it with local guides and fun people.
