Went for our multi-generation family trip and everything from the Skopje itinerary to the return was handled with care. The hotels were exactly the category promised. Will book our next trip with them too.

Skopje was our first big trip and Explera made it stress-free — visa guidance, forex tips, a sensible day plan and a driver who knew the area. Came back with amazing memories and zero complaints.

★★★★
Fantastic multi-generation family trip. The Skopje package was customised to our dates and budget, the 4★ were lovely, and they even rebooked one activity when the weather changed. Five stars.
