Mixed Activity Tours

This was a long intended trip as we’d skied in the Rockies years ago but wanted to see what lay under the snow. We weren’t disappointed. The scenery is breathtaking and some have since asked if our photos were AI or real.
This was a trip that allowed for 2-3 nights in each location, which is perfect and preferable to moving on each day. We added 3 days at the beginning to enjoy Calgary , and deal with jet lag, which was well worth it. Calgary was a pleasant surprise.
A few days at the end to visit family and relax after what was a very active and full 10 days.
Other than the initial Calgary hotel, accommodation was very good.
Travel in our 14 seater minibus was fine for the 12 of us on the trip. 14 might have been a squeeze.
We packed a lot in. Did varying lengths of enjoyable walks and hikes, none were too taxing, but allowed us to feel where we were and escape the crowds.
Occasionally felt a couple of hours break, pre dinner might have been good, but wouldn’t miss any of the experiences we had.
Overall a wonderful trip, spent with a lovely group of people who I’d love to meet on a future trip.

Machu Picchu and Galapagos.
This was an absolutely phenomenal trip. We went in April/May 2026 and we were fortunate to be in a group of 12 extremely friendly people. Everyone was very helpful to their fellow travellers.
As the tour details state, this is moderate level. It is not for the feint of heart (or lungs, muscles, stamina, etc.)…lol. You will be continually on the go. If you do not suffer from FOMO, then you could to take a couple of breaks from the group and relax. Otherwise, it’s a very active itinerary. You get to see so many things that you certainly would not see if you were to book something on your own. By staying at local accommodations, you have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the local culture.
The Inca Trail hike was a bit of a challenge for me, but everyone survived it and was very supportive of each other and their limitations. Machu Picchu was awe-inspiring and we were fortunate to be there on a sunny day. I loved the city of Cusco, with its many attractions. It’s small enough that you can walk and see many of the wonders available.
Quito was a bit of a short stay. It was great to see some of the local culture, and to enjoy the experience from our visit to the Equator.
Galapagos was on my bucket list, and I’d go back there in a heartbeat. By staying at hotels on the different islands, we were able to partake in some local culture after our daily excursions. Everything was very well organized, for boats, buses, planes, etc. etc. that we had to access. The wildlife in Galapagos is amazing. We got to see blue-footed boobies, frigate birds, sea turtles, stingrays, sharks, penguins…I could go on forever.
This was a remarkable tour and Exodus did an outstanding job of organizing such an incredible experience.

Connie Tweedie Machu Picchu & Galapagos

This was one of our best Exodus holidays. Canoeing down the Zambezi is such a wonderful experience. We saw hippos, elephants and crocodiles galore. The night sky was fantastic.
Sitting chatting around the campfire at night, and also at breakfast, was lovely.
The wildlife camping was more comfortable than I had expected. The tents are good quality, the sleeping mat is comfortable, (and doubles as cushioning on the canoe seats). A bowl of lovely hot water is provided each morning to wash with.
The meals are lovely and generous and cooked with fresh produce. A hearty cooked breakfast is a perfect start to a day on the river.
