Amalfi
A good trip all round.The welcome at the Naples air port was just wonderful, it set the right atmosphere for the whole holiday,very important.The week was well managed, and exceeded my expectations through out.Hotel Due Torri,in Bomerano,was excellent, Albert Callewaert superb, what more can i say. Well done,will most certainly use Exodus again.
Highlights of the Amalfi Coast
I had always wanted to visit the Amalfi Coast and wasn’t disappointed. The weather was sunny and warm all week, despite it being late October. The hotel staff were fab, the food plentiful and of a really high quality – and they catered brilliantly for my gluten/dairy free dietary requirements.
Most Inspirational Moment
We visited all of the main sights and had knowledgeable but fun guides at both Pompeii and Vesuvius. Herculaneum was another highlight, as was the the Walk of the Gods.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Severio was great - really knowledgeable about the area with excellent English. He also rearranged the itinerary to ensure we got to Capri as the ferries were stopping running that week. He also arranged for us to join the hiking group staying at the same hotel to save us money on a trip to Pompeii.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Wear hiking boots on the Walk of the Gods, not just waking shoes.
Amazing Amalfi, Lovely Limoncello
This was a well organized trip with varied activities each day – a good mix of walking,culture and cuisine. It was an excellent introduction to this beautiful area, which made us want to return. Every member of our happy group helped to make it a memorable tour.
Most Inspirational Moment
The Walk of the Gods, Herculaneum and Pompeii. Our group meals with wine and limoncello! The cooking demonstrations at the hotel.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Eduardo shared his unique knowledge of the area in which he lives and seemed to know everyone. Not only did he skilfully steer us through the week's itinerary but also made himself available to help us make use of our 'free time'. A great combination of professionalism and fun. Without Eduardo we would not have discovered some of the local places of interest.
Advice for Potential Travellers
The least leisurely day was the one when we did the Walk of the Gods. It is not strenuous most of the way but you need to be able to manage a few areas of rocky terrain / boulders and take your time. Stopping to admire the views is a good idea anyway. Once you finish it, you feel a sense of achievement. Walking poles help but don't rely on the ones at the hotel. These are abandoned by previous walkers and not all in good enough condition.
Great Location, group, food, hotel and an amazing experience
A memorable holiday for all the right reasons. The group was a wide age range, who all got on and supported each other. A pleasure to share a holiday with such lovely people, not forgetting Eduardo our lovely guide.
The itinerary was good but quite full on, would not describe it as a leisurely holiday. Free day spent in Boneramo was a welcome relaxing break.
Hotel provided great food, good service and staff where efficient.
Visited many beautiful places and always made welcome. Would definitely recommend this holiday and Exodus Holidays.
Most Inspirational Moment
Completing the Walk of the Gods regardless of initial apprehension. Felt a great sense of achievement.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Eduardo was a wealth of local knowledge, supportive and has good sense of humour !
Advice for Potential Travellers
For Walk of the Gods wear boots and take walking poles, water and a hat if sunny.
Highlights of Amalfi Coast
A great trip which included the best highlights of the AC.
Full days so there was no time to be bored!
Most Inspirational Moment
The walk of the Gods...an amazing experience and though it was 6 hours, the time flew and the scenery was spectacular. Positano was a nice finishing point.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Knowledgeable and well versed on the area.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Use your free evening to get out of Bomerano and perhaps have dinner in Amalfi, which has a bus sevice. Though the hotel was fab and food perfect, Bomerano is not a typical Amalfi town and I feel.that people should be encouraged to have a break away from one night. There was no encouragement to move from the hotel and we were presented with a hotel menu the night before rather than alternative options offered I choose Amalfi and had a lovely evening with a chance to soak up the lights of this little town at night.
Fabulous Holiday
Just back from this trip and left wanting to return. Hotel serves very good food and the staff really look after you. Each day is very different and full leaving very little time to sit by the small pool before dinner. You will see all there is too see on the Amalfi Coast which is absolutely stunning. I was with a great bunch of people.
Most Inspirational Moment
Visiting Herculaneum, Ravello, Pompeii, Path of the Gods, walking up last part of Vesuvius and Naples. I intended not to visit Naples, however, I was pleased I did as Eduardo took the group to fabulous places especially a special restaurant for lunch.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Eduardo is very knowledgable and seems to know everyone along the Amalfi Coast! He arranges all the transport at the right time to suit each day. He took eight of us to Pompeii on the free day and arranged a guide.
Advice for Potential Travellers
The trip is full but you see so much so just enjoy every moment. You do need walking poles for Vesuvius and especially path of the gods. I did the 700 steps which was hard in the heat but would recommend as fabulous views. Positano is wonderful too especially the ice cream after walk!
Highlights of the Almalfi Coast
Very enjoyable trip. The trip was at a pace that suited myself and partner.

Advice for Potential Travellers
We went in May and needed warm clothing
Highlights of the Amalfi Coast
An interesting and enjoyable week spent with some very nice people. The hotel, Duotorri is run by a friendly family, who are all charming. We are on a plant based diet and they did their utmost to accommodate us, the chef producing some delicious food. The bedroom was comfortable and clean with a small balcony which would be lovely in hot weather.
Most Inspirational Moment
Walking the path of the Gods. The day was dull with the threat of rain but that was OK as it was a hot walk! The views are stunning although you have to stop walking to admire them, walking demands attention to your feet and where to put them! I am a vertigo sufferer but managed it well, as I realised life is too short, and I must pull myself together! Glad I did. We didn't do the 700 or even the 1000 or so steps down but caught the bus, and we're glad to see no one else on our group did either!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Eduardo Palermo is a charming local man. He loves his country and his enthusiasm is infectious. He greeted us early each day and looked after us like a mother hen. He also seems to know everyone on the Amalfi coast!
Advice for Potential Travellers
We took comfortable trainers, although my husband thought walking boots would have been a good idea for the path of the Gods. Binoculars would have been good there too. Walking poles were available at the hotel to borrow but we took some and we're glad we did, especially for climbing Vesuvio as the ground is very slippery.
Highlights of the Amalfi Coast
Excellent holiday. Good hotel, good trips, good group leader.

Whole group completing the Path of the Gods.

Severiano was excellent.
Almalfi Coast
What a beautiful part of Italy…. What wonderful food….. And a great group of people….
Most Inspirational Moment
Loved the Walk of the Gods, and all those steps down in to Positano!! It's very difficult to pick out individual parts of the trip as all the places we visited were lovely.... I was fascinated by Mount Vesuvius, Pompeii & Herculaneum. Going in October I think was a good choice, still busy in some places but I can imagine it being a lot worse in the height of summer, we were lucky with the weather as well.... Took over 200 photos which goes to prove that the scenery was spectacular...
Thoughts on Group Leader
Christine clearly loves what she does and her passion for Italy & the relationship she has with the hotel staff shows.. Thankfully we all took her advice on the best way to view Isle of Capri which made the day a lot more relaxing and stress free, and avoided having to wait in big queues for the buses..
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be prepared to put on weight from all the wonderful food at the hotel..... and wine!!! They were long days but worth it as we packed so much in.....
