Great to be able to walk to the highest mountain in North Africa and in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. No special skills or climbing gear was required for the trip. For this trip you needed to be reasonable fit and able to cope with moderate high altitude walking. The weather was kind to us, but there were numerous clouds around the top of the mountain meaning that our distant views were not clear. Close mountain ranges looked impressive. Lush green valleys contrasted with stark bare mountain tops. A walk well worth doing.
Reaching the top of Mt. Toubkal.
Group leader was very good. He had excellent local knowledge, knew the trip tracks and venue well.
This walk is not a stroll in the park. I would only recommend it for seasoned walkers who enjoy a reasonably hard walk in mountainous terrain.
The Almafi coast had always been on my bucket list and this trip covered all I needed.
Superb walks, great group, very knowledgeable helpful friendly guide all made for one of the most memorable holidays I have had!
Standing on the top of Vesuvius and the surrounding areas it devistated
Paul.... Natural guide, very friendly, knew lots of anecdotal information on where we had been and going. Kept the group together and motivated. All round very nice chap :)
You don't need anything specialised light rucksack, water and some sunscreen, let Exodus do the rest
This was a really lovely ride through contrasting scenery from the mountains, through several different cities to Venice. The riding was easy, mostly on lovely cycle paths with regular water fountains and cafes. There were only a few climbs, although some of the days were quite long, with headwinds. The food was good and the hotels variable, but always comfortable.
Coming over the pass and getting a first view of Lake Garda was pretty breath-taking. Venice was very memorable too.
The group leader was great, on the go from organizing extra rides before breakfast to taking us out to dinner somewhere special in the evening. He controlled the traffic and the long snake of cyclists really well, and never lost any of us despite the best efforts of some of us! Always full of information and passion for his country.
Take clothes for all weathers. We needed sun cream and a hat one day, then the next day got caught in an unforecast spell of freezing cold rain and got soaked, which led to me catching cold. Have proper waterproofs always on you. A couple of the days are quite long, and a headwind is common, but mostly the riding is easy and flat. There are about 6 big climbs over the whole ride, the first being as soon as you set off! If you are going to take a day off, make it day 5, which is very long with quite a lot of urban riding, although you will then miss Soave, which is beautiful. There is not much time to look around the cities, so it would be a good idea to allow an extra few days not just to see Venice, but also to take the train back up to Padua, Verona and Vicenza for a good look around.
This was a whistle stop tour of southern India with a great variety of scenery, some absolutely amazing food & fantastic accommodation. The cycling was straightforward & the Exodus tour guides were great. Can’t recommend it highly enough.
I managed 30 of the 36 hairpins going up Ooty Hill before waiting for my partner who wasn't feeling well. Big achievement for me & one of my personal highlights.
Joseph (leader) & Shibu (driver) were a fantastic team & they gave us everything we needed & more besides on the trip. Unfortunately there were only 3 of us on my departure (because the other guests cancelled the day before) so Joseph & Shibu spent a lot of time with us, talking about India, their lives & ours. I cannot speak highly enough of them. They are absolutely lovely people & made the trip for us.
Don't be nervous on the roads - they are insane & chaotic but you get used to the traffic & soon start understanding how they work. Confidence is the key! The cycling really isn't very challenging so don't worry about doing loads of training before you take the trip. Only Ooty is tough but that's optional & you can take your time if you do go for it. Jump in with both feet & enjoy the culture shock! Oh & eat as much food as you can manage, it is amazing.
Fantastic way to see the country, meet the locals, get very fit and experience the very essence of Cuba.
Watching Cubans dance was truly inspirational. The joy and the passion witnessed has sent me straight to dancing classes.
Alex was fantastic. His knowledge and language were both remarkable and he had a great sense of humour to go with it.
Take a good zoom lens, tell your friends and family they might not hear from you for the duration and take a few salsa lessons before you go,
I did this trip during the last week in September and the weather was great every day. A well organised trip and everything went to schedule. Comfortable chalet and excellent meals in the evening.
Everyday had its highlight. The Aiguille de Midi on our rest day was spectacular and the hot chocolate and ice cream in Italy were delicious.
Mark obviously knew the hills like the back of his hand. we kept a good pace each day, had great views and got plenty of information about the areas we were in.
If you are used to walking the hills in the Lake District then you will be fine with this trip. Don't forget your swimsuit/trunks for the hot tub.
Vietnam cycling was the most exciting, satisfying, amazing experience I have encountered and if you took out the cycling, it would not have been the same!
There had been many highlights throughout the 2 weeks but the one that stands out is cycling down one of many mountains for 20km in heavy rain.
Our group leader Lam treated the trip as it was his very first one and was always at hand with guidance and advice and led the group without incident.
In the busy cities, keep your phones, cameras, wallets very close to you and do not take out so much money when shopping, but just enough.
If you are reading this – then you obviously have an interest in booking the Inca Trail trip with Exodus, and you are trying to get some feedback as to whether you should do it or not – I have 3 words for you – “JUST DO IT”.
This was my first ever Exodus trip and I was very anxious about being solo traveler, spending a lot of money, going to a foreign country – not sure who would meet me (if anyone), would I be able to actually do the trek – all these question go through your mind – but in reality there is absolutely nothing to worry about – this has been the best experience of my life and I would recommend this to anyone with a reasonable level of fitness. In my opinion it is worth the money, there was someone to meet me at the other end and the trek whilst challenging at time was very achievable, and being a solo traveler bit – not an issue the other members on my trip, i class as friends – when you do this trip with others you cant help but become friends with these fantastic shared experiences.
When you eventually get to the Sun gate on day 4, your first sight of Machu Picchu is truly breath taking, and the previous 4 days treking is totally worth it. The general views on the way are also amazing - day 3 campsite - best campsite in the world - you'll have to book it if you want to know why!
Wilbert was our group leader and we could nit have asked for better - he knew his stuff inside out and made 12 strangers become great friends in no time at all.
It can get cold at night so pack plenty of warm clothes. Prepare your self for early starts - you also get early nights thou You need a degree of 'toilet humor' - one shared toilet for the group
I absolutely loved my trip, which included the relaxed delights of Marrakech (sitting on a roof terrace drinking mint tea and visiting a beautiful tiled hammam) and lung-busting strenous walking and scambling to the summit of Mount Toubkal. I’m so grateful for the wonderful guides who helped me during the stay, particularly Abdi who held my hand and helped me get up and down the moutain! I’m also really grateful to the other members of our group who were funny, inspiring and kind.
About half way up Mount Toubkal, turning round and seeing the sun slowly illuminating the slopes below: one by one they turned from black to orange and suddenly we found ourselves illuminated in the blazing African sunshine. It was a strange sensation - as we were so high up, the air still feel cool and chilly so I kept my woolly hat on!
Just amazing. Our group leader was my cousin Jae and our main guide was Abdul. Both were wonderful - patient, kind, encouraging and they worked really long hours to make sure everyone on the trip was having the best possible time. Thank you Jae and Abdul.
Get as fit as possible - I wouldn't have made it to the top without lots of help from Abdi! Also, bring walking poles. And I'd recommend buying some goodies from Mrs Mills Bakes Cakes to help you keep your energy up!!
We had a fantastic holiday in Costa Rica. The holiday was well planned and managed perfectly by our great tour guide, Gustavo. The holiday allowed us to experience the diversity of this lovely country and had just the right amount of mix of activities, walks and free time. The lodges and hotels were all good, friendly, well managed and in fantastic locations particularly in Tortuguero, Golfito and Savegre
Seeing amazing wildlife in their natural environment
Gustavo was great. He ensured everyone was well looked after and experienced everything Costa Rica has to offer during our short visit.
Add Costa Rica to the top of your travel list!
