Expert Travel Advice

Our experienced customer operations and health and safety teams work in tandem with your leader to keep you safe on your adventure, providing assistance from the moment you book to the minute you return to home soil.

Before you travel

Once you book, our expert team will keep you updated with everything you need to ensure a smooth and safe trip. See our ‘Approved Destinations’ section for more detail on how we do this.

We recommend that your travel insurance policy includes COVID-cover, so that your costs will be covered until you are able to return home should you test positive (subject to conditions).  If you wish to purchase travel insurance  you can reach out to your travel insurance provider or Exodus’ recommended insurance provider for Americans and Canadians Ripcord Travel Protection here.

Your tour leader will provide the latest local guidance, and let you know if any extra safety precautions such as face coverings may be needed in certain locations.

Should you fall ill, our team knows the best and most suitable medical care facilities for each point on the trip and will work in tandem with your leader to get you any medical attention, should you need it. If official travel advice changes during your trip, your leader will work closely with our expert customer operations team to reroute or help with repatriation if required.

In the unlikely event that your group needs to self-isolate, your local team will offer support throughout. We will help arrange accommodation and food and help to organise medical care and liaise with your insurance provider. In the unlikely event that your tour leader contracts COVID, they will be replaced immediately.

Returning home

Should there be a requirement to show proof of a negative COVID test on arrival back to your home country, we have built time into our itineraries for this. On guided trips your leader will assist with this and if needed, will take you to the most appropriate local testing facility.

If, through no fault of your own, your test result is delayed, we will cover your accommodation costs until you are able to travel.

 

Small Healthy Groups

We keep group sizes small to maintain a low risk ‘small group bubble’, with an average of 10 guests in each group. In some areas it may not always be possible to socially distance, but as a precautionary measure, we encourage travellers to limit physical contact with others where possible.

Exodus COVID-Clear Policy

For extra peace of mind, Exodus requires all those travelling on group holidays to have had a vaccine or negative COVID test – known as ‘COVID-Clear’ status. Please ensure that you understand this policy and can comply with it before you travel with us. All customers will need to have one of the following in place prior to travel:

1.  Be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 with the last dose having been administered no less than two weeks prior to travel. The total number of doses must have been given, as required by the vaccine manufacturer (in most cases this is two doses). There is no requirement to have received a booster dose.

        · Proof of vaccination or vaccination card which show your name and date of vaccine are sufficient.

2.  A negative Covid test taken within 72 hours of travel

      · The certificate provided by your private testing provider can be used to demonstrate this.

If you are travelling to a country where one of these is an entry requirement, you do not need to provide Exodus with proof of your COVID-Clear status prior to travel; you can expect this to be checked by your airline and by immigration officials when you arrive in the destination country.

If you are travelling within the USA/Canada, your home country, or there are no entry requirements of this nature in the destination country, please email a copy or photo of your documents to customerservices@exodustravels.com at least 2 weeks before departure.

With our COVID-Clear policy in place, we will no longer require you to complete a ‘self-declaration’ prior to travel, which was required for travel during 2020. Your tour leader however will remind you of any regional or national COVID rules or guidelines which apply, and as needed, the latest policy requirements from Exodus.

 

Approved Destinations​ 

All of our destinations will be required to pass a 5-stage approval process, which includes the World Health Organization, CDC, U.S. Department of State and other relevant authorities.

You can contact our Travel Experts at any time for the latest information on local travel guidelines, country entry requirements or health certifications. 

Our 5-stage approval process

We will only allow you to travel to a country where the following criteria has been met:

We use Healix, a leading Global Travel Risk Management company to ensure we have correct, consistent and up-to-date information about all destination risks. 

 

Clean & Safe

Enhanced cleanliness and hygiene safety measures have been introduced in our accommodation, transport, meal locations and venues, and our local teams will visit each one in advance of travel.

Exodus Travels has received the World Travel and Tourism Council’s Safe Travels stamp, which provides travellers with additional assurance that we have adopted health and hygiene global standards designed to keep your travels as safe as possible.

 

Your accommodation

We check that enhanced cleaning measures have been introduced and where possible, our hotels will allow for physical distancing in public areas, for example during the check in process, in lifts and in public seating areas. Additional single rooms are available at a preferential rate for solo travellers who would like them. Please speak to the team who will be happy to arrange this for you.​

Your transport

We use spacious, private vehicles restricted to your group members only. Your guide will ensure that you use the same seat for all journeys in one day.​ Vehicles are thoroughly cleaned before departure, and daily throughout your trip. Hand sanitizers are readily available onboard where regular handwashing may not be possible.​

Travelling by plane?

Airlines partners have been making changes to the way they operate to prevent the spread of COVID-19. To help protect yourself and others on your journey you will need to wear a face covering in the airport and throughout your flight. Onboard, aircrafts are typically fitted with HEPA filters which replace cabin air every three to four minutes and cabins are thoroughly disinfected daily, providing surface protection from viruses that lasts for at least 24 hours.

Measures differ by airline and destination country, so please check with your airline or visit the International Air Transport Association (IATA) website for the most up to date flying advice.

Your meals

Suitable ‘clean and safe’ venues will be proposed for all meals, whether included in the price of your holiday or at your own cost, and whether your guide accompanies you or not.
