Booked the 6N/7D Dakar trip with Explera for our solo travel and it was flawless — 3★, smooth transfers and a well-paced itinerary. Nothing to arrange ourselves, we just enjoyed.

Explera planned our Dakar holiday end to end — flights, 3★, sightseeing and visa where needed, all on one bill. Every day ran exactly to plan. Best travel agent in Surat, honestly.

★★★★★
Our solo travel to Dakar was better than the photos. The team suggested the perfect hotels and the 7-day route was neither rushed nor lazy. Priced fairly with no surprises at the end.
