★★★★★
Booked the 8N/9D Lilongwe trip with Explera for our first trip abroad and it was flawless — 4★ / 5★ spa resort, smooth transfers and a well-paced itinerary. Nothing to arrange ourselves, we just enjoyed.

Shreya Desai

Vadodara · First trip abroad

★★★★★
Explera planned our Lilongwe holiday end to end — flights, 4★ / 5★ spa resort, sightseeing and visa where needed, all on one bill. Every day ran exactly to plan. Best travel agent in Surat, honestly.

★★★★★
Our first trip abroad to Lilongwe was better than the photos. The team suggested the perfect hotels and the 9-day route was neither rushed nor lazy. Priced fairly with no surprises at the end.
