Stunning trip with great accommodation can’t wait for the next one with ExploraPubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata Uganda 2026 Programma stupendo, organizzazione accurata e gestione fantastica di delle attività programmate che di qualche imprevisto che sempre accade in viaggi del genere. Mariangela super! Riassumento, esperienza fantastica !Pubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata La grande bellezza!!! Un altro viaggio con Explora expedition, ed un altro bel regalo x il mio cuore! Azzeccata la collaborazione con Red Maya, x la logistica, e anche x aver risolto in maniera più che soddisfacente situazioni intricate; questo grazia anche ad un gruppo ben coeso, ed intelligente nello sdrammatizzare situazioni al limite del surreale.....ottima la cucina , e l'organizzazione x il montaggio del campo x le notti Kazake. Per la location ho difficoltà nel trovare gli aggettivi per descrivere "la grande bellezza". Immerso dentro un grande oceano scomparso,( Tetide) ma più che mai presente nei miei pensieri di quei giorni; trovi sensazioni di incredulità , sorpresa , gioia , x essere presente in un posto dove hai la percezione di essere una formica ( felice) dove occhi ....cuore...ed anima sono pieni di appagata bellezza....questo e' il Mangystau!!!!Pubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata Mangystau 2026 Sono appena rientrata dal viaggio in Mangystau che si è tenuto dal 23 aprile 2026 al 3 maggio 2026. E’stata un’esperienza bellissima. Il Mangystau è un tesoro nascosto. Panorami mozzafiato che sembrano dipinti, un mix perfetto di storia spirituale e natura selvaggia.Non è un viaggio comodo , ma ogni km di sterrato vale la pena per ammirare la maestosità della steppa kazaka. Grazie a Carlo Gugliardini che ci ha supportato e sopportato in questo bellissimo viaggio. Cinque stelle meritatissime. PatriziaPubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata Kazakistan, un luogo intenso e sorprendente Sono appena tornata da un viaggio in Kazakistan intenso, sorprendente e fuori dagli schemi. Un’esperienza che combina avventura, scoperta e contatto autentico con luoghi ancora poco turistici. L’organizzazione è stata attenta ad ogni dettaglio e il vero punto di forza sono stati il tour leader Carlo Guliardini e le guide locali, disponibili, coinvolgenti e capaci di trasmettere entusiasmo. È un viaggio che richiede spirito di adattamento e voglia di mettersi in gioco, ma è proprio questo che lo rende così autentico e indimenticabile.Pubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata Mangystau: libertà su quattro ruote ( e una tenda) Un viaggio nella steppa Kazaka è qualcosa che va ben oltre l'avventura: è un'esperienza che rimane impressa nella memoria e negli occhi. E' come viaggiare in fuoristrada dentro un film; ma non è un film. Dai colori della notte che all'alba diventano sempre più caldi, ai tramonti arancio, al cielo stellato blu con le stelle a portata di mano. Dormire in tenda in terreni aperti ti fa riscoprire il valore della semplicità e dell'essenziale. Non sono mancati i momenti difficili ( pioggia che trasforma le piste in mari di fango) o il vento che scuote le tende, ma in queste occasioni è venuta fuori la forza del gruppo con l'aiuto reciproco e le risate anche nei momenti più complicati. Una esperienza così non si dimentica! Grazie Carlo !Pubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata Tra fango e le nuvole lassù Viaggiare in Kazakistan-Mangystau è come scrivere la sceneggiatura di un film, giorno dopo giorno. Un film sull’imprevisto, un film fatto di attimi infiniti che ti lasciano col fiato sospeso, che ti costringono a rimanere presenti, focalizzati nel presente, che si disvela . L’estasi di fronte ad un paesaggio incontaminato, così tanto fragile, si insinua tra le pieghe della pelle e lì rimane per sempre. Il fango, protagonista indiscusso della spedizione, si appiccica, ai capelli, ai pensieri, e ti ricorda che ormai sei parte di quella terra anche tu. Questa volta eXplora si è superata per avventura e imprevedibilità. Ringrazio Carlo per la bellezza. “Non è tutto ciò che vediamo, o ciò che ci sembra di vedere, soltanto un sogno dentro il sogno?” Edgar Allan PoePubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata Il deserto dell’artemisia Bellissima esperienza nel magnifico Mangystau gestito con professionalità dall’equipe di Explora in collaborazione con RedMaya locale. 1300 km intensi e sorprendenti e anche i piccoli imprevisti dovuti al maltempo sono stati risolti con l’efficienza di Carlo Gugliardini, il nostro group leader . Posto naturalistico indimenticabile e ancora incontaminato dove lascio un pezzettino del mio cuore Flavia CapraPubblicato su TripadvisorVerificata Stupefacente! Appena tornata da una splendida avventura naturalistica dalla Tanzania. The great migration . Abbiamo visto una moltitudine di animali nei parchi Tarangire, Serengeti, Ngorongoro crater., oltre naturalmente ad una splendida vegetazione. E’ il mio sesto viaggio con eXplora e che dire….splendida tour leader Mariangela..ti fa sentire in famiglia e quando sei lontano da casa è una cosa importante. Sempre attenta ai tuoi desideri, alle tue richieste a tutto ciò che richiede il cliente. Complimenti anche a Simon la nostra guida driver che ci ha fatto vivere emozioni stupende sulle vie non facili dei parchi. Lodge a tema Africani molto suggestivi. Consiglio senza alcun dubbio eXplora expedition.

Our Story
eXplora expedition Pty Ltd is a company specializing in naturalistic expeditions worldwide, based in Cape Town, South Africa. It offers unique experiences, with a greater focus on Africa, particularly South Africa. Our mission is to make participants feel like the protagonists of the best nature documentary, with the utmost respect for and protection of animals in their natural habitats. However, this mission goes beyond that.
This wonderful idea was conceived by the two founders, passionate travelers and naturalists, who not only share an important project but also uphold and believe in significant values towards nature and environmental conservation. The numerous trips to South Africa, driven by their love for Africa, were the reason they chose to establish the company's headquarters in the country, which remains, fortunately, one of the wildest and richest places in the world to develop a new idea of business and life.
“We want to pamper our clients, offering them not only our professionalism but also the exclusivity of experiencing their vacation in a privileged way, providing them with a memorable travel experience.” This is the message the founders share with those approaching eXplora's trips, which are divided into journeys and expeditions with a minimum of two and a maximum of seven people, either self-drive or with an exclusive guide, depending on the needs and organization of the itinerary. The company offers some of the best partnerships worldwide, working with operators who enhance the emotional impact during the trip, thus offering unique, original, and unforgettable experiences.
A new concept of travel, giving participants the opportunity to immerse themselves in the journey, recognizing and discovering the important value of the world around us. The activities performed during the expeditions and trips combine exploration, adventure, and relaxation while promoting respect and safeguarding the environment. The goal is to learn a new way of combining physical and mental well-being with one's travel experience, making it unique and memorable over time.
