They are a fantastic asset, so much so that our current MD, Product Director, Operations Director (amongst others) are all ex-tour leaders (not to mention the founders of the company).

As a little bit of a celebration of Tour Leaders we have a mini blog series from one of our most experienced tour leaders Michele. She has written a few pieces on her recent stint of tours in April – and we also have some interviews with tours leaders coming up too.

Its great to see tour leaders get recognition for the work they do and that’s why we are very pleased for Diego Torres Garzon, who has been nominated for Wanderlust’s Paul Morrison Guide Award.

The trips Kate has been leading have also been to see the Mountain Gorillas and she talks about what an amazing experience meeting the apes actually is, and how emotional it can be.

You can catch Kate at any of our remaining Evenings of Adventure (see our website). Well worth a look, as the presentations are really rather good.

We’ll try and get a few of these up over the next few weeks. And you can also see us at the Destinations show in Birmingham between 2 and 4 March, apparently we’ll be at stand AA18.

Anyway, to kick off this series of interviews,  I decided it would be good to hear from some of our most experienced customers. Much more experienced than I at Explore trips!

Stuart and Annette Attfield have travelled 18 times (no that’s not a typo!) with Explore. They give you their views on what its like, what the Explore style is like and out tour leaders (phew!)

Enjoy.
