At Expat Explore, we value responsible travel and are committed to exploring the world consciously and kindly. Our modern coach fleet reduces environmental impact by consolidating transport and lowering emissions per traveller. All coaches meet EURO VI standards, the strictest emissions regulations in Europe. A full coach can replace over 30 cars on the road and emit up to four times less CO2 per passenger compared to car travel. Plus, our fleet is under six years old, ensuring we benefit from the latest efficiency technology.

We also strive to balance popular sights with authentic cultural experiences. Our tour leaders share insights into local customs and regulations to promote respectful travel. By partnering with local guides, restaurants and activity providers, we help tourism income stay within the communities we visit. While not all accommodation is fully sustainable yet, we’re working with our partners to improve standards across the board. ....less

Expat Explore was founded by two South African expats in London who wanted to share their love of travel with the world. What began in 2005 with just 200 passengers has grown into a global tour company taking over 17,000 travellers each year to destinations across Europe, the UK, the USA and Canada, Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and South America.

From the start, our mission has been to provide once-in-a-lifetime travel experiences at an accessible price, without compromising on quality. Over the past two decades, thousands of travellers of all ages and backgrounds have explored the world’s most captivating destinations with us. We’re proud to be celebrating over 20 years on the road!
