I have been on quite a few Exodus trips, and all have been excellent.
Seeing the orangutans and Konodo dragons.
Mr Halim was a great guide. The whole trip ran without a hitch thanks to his enthusiasm and organisational skills.
We have found Exodus to be a very reliable and excellent company to travel with in order a meaningful connection with a countries wildlife and culture.
Orangutans and Komodo dragons The boat cruise within Komodo national park was also excellent with ample opportunities for snorkelling. Also the fruit bat flyover one evening was particularly memorable
Halim was an exceptional leader who was always on the ball and kept everyone informed and up to date with what was happening. Everything ran very smoothly because of his diligence. He did all of this in a very friendly and engaging manner, bringing the whole group together.
Did this trip in 2024 surprised they have removed all previous reviews. Main point that we felt the guidance lacked was the boat trip can only accommodate 12 people in 6 cabins. Anything over this has to sleep on deck and the bathrooms are only available through other people’s 6 cabins which as you can imagine isn’t comforting if you need the toilet at 2am. As the youngest people in the group we felt pressured to sleep on deck which wasn’t an issue initially but as we found out that the boat needed to move through the night it wasn’t possible to sleep. We felt really short changed by exodus and the description of this segment of the trip. Especially after 2 nights of no sleep!
Orangutans
Great couldn’t do anything about the boat accommodations
Hopefully you aren’t young enough to made/pressured to sleep on deck
We’re grateful for Catrin taking the time to leave a review. This is a new iteration of Primates & Dragons of Indonesia, which is changed in both itinerary and duration from the trip Catrin went on. This is why old reviews weren’t carried over to this new tour.
We’re sorry that Catrin didn’t enjoy the experience of sleeping on deck and felt pressured to do this. Our trip notes now make very clear that there is a mix of cabin and on-deck accommodation on the boat, and indeed for some people sleeping under the stars is a trip highlight.
The boat will usually never have to move in the night on this trip, but it is the nature of cruise accommodation that the boat may on occasion have to move due to tidal conditions. Group dynamics aren’t something we can control, and we’re sorry Catrin and her travelling companions felt pressured to sleep on deck. Our tour leaders will always be happy to sort an equitable solution if concerns are raised at the time.
We hope that despite Catrin’s disappointment at this aspect of the trip that she had a great time overall.
