Hiking Northern Vietnam exceeded all expectations and was one of the most rewarding travel experiences I’ve had. From the bustling streets of Hanoi to the remote mountain villages and spectacular rice-terraced landscapes, the trip offered the perfect balance of culture, adventure, and authentic local experiences.

What made this journey so special was the opportunity to connect with local communities and experience a way of life that feels untouched by tourism. The homestays were a highlight throughout, offering warm hospitality, incredible home-cooked meals, and genuine cultural exchanges. The contrast between vibrant Hanoi and the rural regions of Northern Vietnam added another layer to the experience, showcasing the incredible diversity of the country.

Expect stunning scenery, welcoming villages, and memorable encounters. From start to finish, this trip was exceptional and one I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an active adventure combined with meaningful cultural immersion.

Lilian Kim Hiking in Northern Vietnam

A fabulous trip taking in historic cities: Florence and Siena, ancient hilltop towns : Castellina, San Gimignano and Volterra and local food and wine tasting. We packed so much into the week but never felt rushed.The Hotel Le Renaie was comfortable and all the staff were friendly and helpful. Together with the beautiful Tuscan landscape it made for a perfect holiday.

I was attracted to this trip in large part because it promised a fair bit of scrambling, and it did not disappoint (see other reviewers comments). Great fun. The expectation of minimal crowds was also an attraction, and that did not disappoint either. Other highlights including seeing a bear in the wild and the food and hospitality at Villa Hermani. Finally, our guide, Sebi, was outstanding — a capable guy who was also great company.

Great trip in Andalucía! As an Exodus employee, I really enjoyed this itinerary. It offered a wonderful balance of walking through quiet olive groves and exploring some of the region’s more vibrant, well-known cities.

The food was excellent every evening, and the accommodations were comfortable and welcoming. Having access to a pool at the end of each day’s walk was especially relaxing and made the experience even more enjoyable.

An African safari has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. This has been an incredible and unforgettable adventure. This tour was full of so many special and memorable moments. It surpassed anything I could have imagined.

This is an unspoilt and spectacular area which surprisingly is still very accessible and close to Alicante. The hiking is lovely with great views and variety. Except for one descent which is slightly trickier, all the walks are quite doable for a fit person. The accomodation is boutique, authentic and personalised with lovely food. The guide Jose is outstanding. It’s his business and he is passionate about the region. He is knowledgeable, good fun and an excellent communicator. This was the perfect trip for us in February and I would highly recommend it.
