We’d do it again! Loved the group we travelled with. They made it a great trip along with our group leader Francesco. Sicily is beautiful!!!
Buffalo farm & tour of orchards, and foods, of course
Francesco was the best and so was our driver Franco!
Give it a try, but plan on going on a diet when you return home. Pastas, breads, cheeses and wines were Devine!
I went in February, which was the perfect time to escape the cold weather back home. This tour struck a great balance between exploring ancient Mayan ruins, learning about local culture, and experiencing the incredible biodiversity of Belize. Walking through the ruins was like stepping back in time—truly awe-inspiring to see these structures that have endured for centuries. Our accommodation in Guatemala was conveniently located right next to Tikal, making it ideal for the sunrise hike since it was an early wake up. The final few days were spent on Caye Caulker, which was the perfect – true highlight of the tour, relaxing way to end the trip. We enjoyed the beautiful beach just steps from our lodging and had some unforgettable snorkeling experiences.
Jorge was a wealth of knowledge—an earlier review said, “Always listen to Jorge!” and that turned out to be very true. He’s an experienced leader and a true expert in his field. Not only did he ensure our tour ran smoothly, but he also offered early morning birding walks (when the weather allowed), and shared deep insights into the history of both Belize and Guatemala. He was always approachable, enthusiastic, and had a smile on his face. Jorge and the other local guides really elevated the experience for all of us!
Be prepared for the weather—there’s a possibility of rain showers, especially while you're inland in Belize and visiting Tikal. That said, this tour is a fantastic way to escape colder climates if you travel during peak season. I also found a waterproof phone case and a dry bag incredibly useful, especially for activities like tubing and snorkeling. They made it easy to keep my belongings safe, keep my wet items separate from my backpack during the day. As well, I found that water shoes that had a sole on the bottom was perfect for the Caves Branch River as there is a walk to the entrance of the cave before you are in the water. If you're interested in the Actun Tunichil Muknal (ATM) Cave tour, I highly recommend reserving it in advance and doing a bit of independent research beforehand. It's a very active and adventurous excursion, so it's good to know what to expect.
The itinerary offered a perfect mix of adventure, culture, and comfort. Every day brought something new — from wildlife safaris and scenic nature walks to temple visits and authentic local experiences — all complemented by stays in beautiful premium hotels, which provided the perfect place to relax and recharge.
One of the standout highlights was the food — every meal was bursting with flavour, and the cooking class in Ella was one of my favourite experiences. We made eight delicious curries with a local family — such a fun and memorable way to connect with the culture!
Sri Lanka is an absolute must!
Wild glamping in Gal Oya and everything about Ella — from the cooking class and scenic walk to the iconic Nine Arches Bridge, to the stunning hotel and vibrant town, every moment there was unforgettable!
Mahen was awesome! He was knowledgeable, kind, and had a great sense of humour that brought the group together. He is so passionate about his country and it really added to the trip!
It’s hot! Pack breathable, lightweight clothing and bring a sarong or shawl for temple visits.
My second trip with Exodus; did not disappoint. Lots of stairs, as well described in notes. Hotel great, food stellar
Nico amazing guide, Eduardo, amazing driver 😌
Vesuvius volcano visit, up close; as well, Path of the Gods
Nico
Bomerano is higher, nestled in the mountains. Cooler than on the coast. Bring layers
First trip of a lifetime – it won’t be the last
I spent months fretting about the logistics of this trip but it honestly turned out to be the best travel experience of my life. I'm a bit of a stresshead when it comes to long haul travel so the logistics of packing, buying air tickets, fear of forgetting bike kit were all very real. But from the second my wife and I landed at Bangkok to be met by our Tour Leader, Seen, my fears slowly evaporated so that by the end of the fortnight I was ready to book next year's adventure as a season cycling traveller (maybe). Who knows where that will take us? If I had to pick an inspirational moment it was when most of the 15-strong group met up for the first time in the hotel bar and I quickly realised they were all different and all lovely… a viewpoint confirmed slightly more with every day we spent with each other. By the end there were a lot of sad goodbyes - hopefully au revoirs – as everyone headed their separate ways. Proof that people, just as much if not more than places, make the greatest memories. The places were incredible too, but perhaps the highlight was cycling through small Vietnamese villages to be greeted by chorus of "hellos" from the small children who ran to the roadside whether at school or their man-made homes. They had very little but gave us everything in terms of a welcome. A lesson for the materialistic west. Perhaps the real beauty of the trip was how different each country felt. From the unfussy charm of Thailand and its wonderful cuisine to the roadside monkeys and insect (tarantula deep fried if you want to know) takeaway stalls of Cambodia as well as breathtaking temples which photography couldn't truly capture. Then on to a 'homestay' plus mozzie nets on Vietnam's Mekong Delta with rice paper making, snake wine for lead in your pencil and some of the most beautiful palm tree laden hamlets you'll ever experience. Most inspiring moment really is an impossible question. The trip was like a memory montage of views, interactions and laughter - lots of laughter – as we saw 'different world' situations that just don't happen in boring Blighty. Pub Street in Siem Reap with its countless bars and a particularly wonderful restaurant our Tour Guide took us to – we ate as a group almost every night, a testament to how close-knit we were – karaoke venues that weren't, bars that weren't (use your 'made our excuses and left' imagination), wonderful lunches for £3 a head, sundowners on our hotel's rooftop bar in Phnom Penh, a meal in Cambodia with the noisest chairs you'll ever hear, street markets where one of our number considered taking crabs back to the UK (and by all accounts tried)… and if fish farms are your thing, you'll die happy here (possibly). On the flip side, the Killing Fields and S-21 prison were sobering reminders of man's inhumanity to man, brought even more startlingly to life at the end of the torture centre tour when we were introduced to one of the child survivors now an elderly man with memories of the wrong kind. The Cu Chi Tunnels and Vietnam War Museum at our final destination of Saigon merely emphasised the contrast between the horrors that this part of SE Asia has witnessed and the jaw-dropping beauty of the place. Great to see that the former hasn't tarnished forever or broken the spirit of its wonderful and special people. If I had to pick a single moment it would probably be seeing the sun rise over Angkor Wat. I had the pictures to prove it although sadly my camera wiped them. In reality bed was too attractive a proposition after a string of 7-8am starts, but our oldest friends Mark and Sian who braved it, said it was a wonderful experience. Being facetious aside, I'd honestly say the warm welcome almost everywhere we went was my highlight among a constellation of memories.
I don't really know where to start in describing Seen other than to say he was absolutely incredible from start to finish of our tour. Seen is a credit not only to himself but also as an ambassador for your company and was – I don't think this is overegging it – loved by all 15 members of our group. This was my first time on a trip like this so I was nervous and apprehensive before arriving, but had I known how it would all go under the watchful eye of Seen I needn't have worried. He met my wife and I at the airport with a wonderful smile and I knew instantly that he would provide us with the reassurance we needed. He didn't disappoint on that front. By the time we arrived in Vietnam he was effectively considered one of the group, but always maintained a professional stance while remaining friendly and - most importantly - fun throughout. He was the go-to man in all three countries to the extent that when the local guides stepped in some of the group joked "they're great but they're not our real dad". Seen was kind and attentive and extremely knowledgeable about all aspects of the heritage, history and religion of all three countries - and above all he was constantly calm, putting the satisfaction of our group ahead of his own needs all day, every day. Even when the local tour guides took centre stage he was always there, attentively looking after our every need. Importantly he also 'got' the sometimes dry and sometimes satirical sense of humour of the group. He had a great understanding of British sarcasm and chipped on when it was right. A real skill that showed empathy and understanding of his audience. When we all got home many people left messages on the Whatsapp group saying they'd been out for a ride but had found it difficult… without Seen. He made a great trip unforgettable and I and the rest of the group still miss him, but intend to struggle through to next March and try to get the band together again - as long as he's our leader.
Book an Exodus trip. Based on my initial nervousness, I'd say: Absolutely everything was taken care of from the communications at the start to amazing snack stops and a support vehicle was a constant reassurance. I took my own pedals which I found quite handy - I just needed to switch into trainers for temple stops which was easy. Some people took gel seats for their bike and said they were worth their weight in gold but I used standard bib shorts and didn't have any issues. US dollars are pretty much all you need apart from say £40 in Thai Baht and £30 in Dong PLUS a Revolut card. Last piece of advice - if you're thinking about it, don't. Just do it. Life's too short.
Our trip was wonderful! Miguel is a excellent guide with so much knowledge of the area including the history, plants & animals. Though a bit rustic, the Cortijo Rosario was lovely & very in keeping with the beautiful olive groves surrounding it- very homey / personal & perfect for me. The staff & food were fabulous as we’re all of the fabulous acquaintances made. Thanks to all for a great trip.
I highly recommend this holiday. Daily walks through beautiful and varied countryside in the hills and along the fishermen’s coastal path. Time to stop and admire the views and wild flowers in full bloom, watch the seabirds and
learn about the environmental challenges from our 2 wonderful guides Francisco and Rafael.
The spectacular coastal views.
Francisco and his colleague Rafael are excellent, thoughtful and well organised guides. They introduced us to very interesting local olive oil and drinks producers and took us to fabulous seafood restaurants and we had fun along the way.
Take plenty of Euros to pay for most meals as advised in the trip notes and comfortable walking shoes or boots for walking on rocky paths.
Our party of four loved our itinerary, guide and boat. The days were filled with excursions, snorkeling and great food and lectures. We highly recommend the Solaris C excursion!
Snorkeling with the penguins, baby sharks and sea lions.
Excellent- very knowledgeable and determined to make sure that we got everything we could from our five days in these beautiful Islands.
Join with family and friends and take advantage of every excursion both land and sea.
Beautiful Buddhist temples – photographer’s dream. Elephant Nature Park. Learning about the history in Kanchanaburi, walking along the railway line and train journey at “Death Railway”, and walking across the “Bridge on the River Kwai” (bridge beautifully lit up at night with alternating colours, worth seeing).
The morning spent with the elephants in the Elephant Nature Park.
Nai was excellent, very helpful, friendly and caring, and good sense of humour. He took groups photos (and individual photos) of us at the various destinations and kept us supplied Thai snacks to sample on the journeys. When the earthquake happened in Bangkok midway through our tour, he kept us fully informed of events and the situation, coming up with alternative itinerary when Hellfire's Pass and museum was closed in Kanchanaburi due to the quake, although there were no tremors there.
The city tour of Bangkok on day 1 is not really a city tour as such, you just visit the places listed on the itinerary and do the longtail boat trip. The city is so vast that it is impossible to see much of the city, either at the start or the end. You really need an extra day or two added on to the trip to explore Bangkok and visit a few more attractions. It is not a compact city and most attractions are far apart, not within walking distance. Tuk-tuks are the best way to make the most of your time and enable you to see more, prices are reasonable and you can haggle for a lower price, within reason... they have to make a living! On the day of arrival of the tour I had some free time before the tour brief, but was so tired from the long indirect flight that I slept for a few hours. On return to Bangkok at the end of the tour and with evening flight on the last day, I did manage to see a few of the sights high up on my list - Wat Saket, Wat Suthat and Jim Thompson's house all worth visiting. The orientation tour on arrival in Chiang Mai just focuses on showing you where things are in the area around the hotel. It does not go into the old town and there is no "city tour" in the itinerary for Chiang Mai. If you want to explore the old city, you will need to visit this in the free afternoons after the mornings' itineraries when you have "free time" to yourself to explore/shop/relax. The main street in the old city, from Phae Gate, has some lovely clothes and souvenirs shops selling good quality goods at good prices along it and, at the very end of the street you come to Wat Phra Singh - a good sized and beautiful Buddhist temple complex, worth visiting (and taking lots of photos!), as is Wat Chedi Luang in the old city, not far from the main road through the heart of the old city. Could have done with slightly longer in the shop at the Elephant nature park as good quality items are sold there and monies from items sold help fund the place. Whilst the tour's itinerary changed in 2025 from when I booked it in 2024, dropping one destination (which I was disappointed at), it did mean we had longer and just the right amount of time in Kanchanaburi. The trip notes show two days of long journeys, but these are broken up with good number of stops and on one day a visit to a temple on the way. The tour's bus was one of the most comfortable I have travelled in and with only 7 of us in our group (excluding Nai), we were able to spread ourselves out and take full advantage of the fully reclining seats with option of back massage incorporated within the seats. Most of us slept for a good amount of the journeys, especially with some of the early starts, so it meant that the journeys weren't so long as a result of the comfort and sleeping at times - we had arrived by the time we woke up. When travelling such vast countries and numerous destinations on these types of tours, long journeys are inevitable and whilst less time spent seeing other places, you do get to see the countryside, towns and villages along the way.
I am so glad that I found Exodus Adventure Travels online and so glad that I booked my trip to Morocco with them. I was very impressed with how comprehensive the itinerary was and I am so happy that I got to see and do so much in fifteen days. There were lots of opportunities to discover and learn about the various places we visited, both with the group and when we had free time to explore on our own.
I really enjoyed the varied activities we did – hiking, eating in non-touristy restaurants, meeting locals, and, of course, riding camels – and I also really liked the different types of accommodations we stayed in.
The best of part of all was the fantastic guide we had who did an amazing job imparting his knowledge and sharing so much information with us about the history and culture and the people of Morocco. Mohammed is patient, respectful, and caring, as well as a great communicator who made sure that everyone felt well taken care of and that nobody missed out on anything. Thank you, Mohammed, for everything you did that made this trip the best travel experience I have ever had!!!
Walking on the sand dunes and doing a camel ride in the Sahara Desert. Also visiting remote villages in the Atlas Mountains.
