The trek from Samos to Santiago de Compostela was an immersion into Galician landscape with beautiful scenery and welcoming people/stops. The early May departure meant weather was mild (routine rain expected), crowds limited, and spring blooms in full force. Our group was a joy and Aitor, our guide, was world-class. He is skilled at maintaining morale, providing specific coaching on physical skills, and has valuable connections to local providers.

Friends were apprehensive about me going to Jordan but it felt one of the safest places I’ve ever been. We saw no evidence of the conflict in the Middle East! We were also in Petra during the recent flash floods, we were well informed about the history of them, the forecast for that day and what would happen in the event of one. It was our free day there, I and several of the group walked out during the flood, whereas some were transported out. No panic, no mass evacuation, calmly organised with expert people and specialised vehicles on hand but not needed. Don’t have any doubts about going, just go!
We were met at Amman by an Exodus rep who was so well organised. Kept us together, organised our visas and whisked us past long queues and onto our coach within a few minutes. He also saw us off on departure day and waited till we were all ready to go through the security checks. (Unfortunately I can’t remember his name)
The people of Jordan are wonderful. You do get people trying to sell to you but they do take No as an answer and leave you alone. The youth of Jordan are so polite and offered me help wherever I was.
We had a very comfortable 32 seater coach for the 16 of us, very roomy, air conditioned and had Wi-Fi. Wahim, the driver was excellent, safe, confident, coach was always cleaned and he was dressed immaculatly every day of the tour.

This is one of the most beautiful bike tours I’ve ever done. The beauty of the landscapes, the bike course, and this, despite the rain of the last few days. Among other things, we experienced the general breakdown and encountered a significant subsidence of the road. But our guides, Dinis, Inês, and Filipe, were wonderful and always made our rides easier day after day. Everything was very well organized. The group meetings, the communication via WhatsApp, the photos shared by Filipe, the equipment provided (bike and handlebar bag) contributed to everything running perfectly. The choice of hotels and restaurants was perfect. The group was friendly and supportive, and I met some great people.

We have had many trips with Exodus over the years and I can honestly say this ranks as one of the best. The location at Agriturismo Braccicort was superb, with wonderful grounds, sustainable farming, good food provided by the lovely Italian family and rooms with views. The area is truly a best kept secret as we saw very few other walkers and yet we were amongst wonderful mountains with amazing views stretching for miles. Great bird life and loads of fabulous wild flowers.

My wife and I had a great time on the trip. Our tour leader, Alessio, did a fantastic job and really made our daily adventures both fun and educational. 5 Stars for him!! We usually do not travel with group tours, but in a place like Sicily it made the daily travel arrangements and transportation much easier and seamless.

Everything was wonderful, except for a few of the hotel accommodations which were a bit uncomfortable.

Some of the highlights for us were the cooking class, temples in Agrigento, the Villa Romana, street food tour in Palermo, Mt. Etna hike and the wine tasting at Gambino Winery.
