We had a wonderful time, packing in an enormous amount in such a short visit. It was clear the organisers had anticipated every step so it went very smoothly.

Thoughts on Group Leader
He was wonderful. He managed to make being superbly well-organised look effortless and was completely unruffled by any situation. The whole group got on well with him (and each other). It was a memorable and very happy experience.
Tropical India
I loved the holiday, the people, the food, the adventures however, I think whoever put the description of the holiday together needs to go on the tour and rename it. There is a lot more cycling on main roads and highways than I expected. We didn’t get to experience the tea plantations. We simply sped past them. The Tropical bit didn’t occur until the final few days.
Most Inspirational Moment
Definitely seeing a tiger stalking a baby elephant. We watched it for about an hour. The Granny and mummy elephants were so close to us and it was amazing to watch them protect their baby. Getting a Tuk Tuk to drive us round Kochin. The Jewish quarter is just lovely. The houseboat experience was fun. Loved sitting back playing Name that Tune with our new cycling buddies and chilling out.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Safi was great. Always there with a big smile and he was brilliant at keeping us together which is not an easy task in India! And of course, Dipin with his very positive encouragement at the back and Sandeep who didn’t say a lot but always turned up with the van in time for us to top up our water bottles.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Be aware, the traffic and noise is crazy. If there is a gap in the traffic, it will soon be filled with scooters! You will acclimatise but it is so different from the western world!
Cape Town and the Garden Route - Premium Adventure
A very well organised, enjoyable trip, which covered all the sights we wanted to see. Our guide, Petro, was extremely knowledgeable, personable and friendly.

Well organised trip, great itinerary. As a single female traveller, I felt safe and any concerns were addressed immediately. Amazon travel rep. Would definitely recommend to friends. I have already got another trip booked for November and thinking of booking another early next year.

A fantastic holiday - Thank you!
I loved this holiday and would thoroughly recommend it. The lovely Level 2 walks were accurately described in the itinerary (apart from the paper mill being currently shut). I loved the way we did more than walk – we swam in the sea, ate ice-cream and then had a magical boat trip at dusk back to Amalfi after doing the Path of the Gods. The guides (both Stefano) at Vesuvius and Pompeii were excellent. We seemed to pack a lot in – more than we would have managed if we’d organised it ourselves. The three-star hotel was comfortable and the staff very friendly and welcoming. The food was good and sometimes excellent. It was fun to go into the kitchen on two evenings to “help” with the tiramisu and pizza. We didn’t need 2 first courses / primos a night, though, and often opted to drop one of the four courses or share one of each. I’ve done several Exodus trips now and Vania has been the best guide I’ve had so far. Generous with her time. The weather was mixed. Thank you for jigging the itinerary so that we did the Path of the Gods in beautiful weather. The cloud was down for Vesuvius so we didn’t see as much as we might have done. But the towns were not too busy and we were the only group in the hotel. It was never too hot! A lovely holiday – thank you!

Wonderful walks with a super guide
José is such an engaging and encouraging guide. The views from the tops of the mountains were fabulous. José’s explanations of the local area were wide ranging covering the history, agriculture and much more. The walks were at times quite challenging but José was very good at keeping us all together and ensuring everyone was able to manage the walks. His talks strategically placed for recovery on strenuous sections. The lunch sandwiches were fantastic (prepared by Josè). The hotel was comfortable and the food, which was substantial, was prepared by Raquel who runs the hotel. She was always very friendly and welcoming. We made use of the bar and terrace after the walks for a relaxing beer. Definitely take sticks as some downhill sections have loose stones underfoot.

The 360 view from the top of Aitana peak was fantastic. I felt we were on top of the world with the sea visible on multiple sides.
Thoughts on Group Leader
José was amazing. Such a lovely character, kind, entertaining and extremely knowledgeable about the local area as he has been leading groups around Aitana for 25 years!
Advice for Potential Travellers
We hadn’t really walked much before this trip for various reasons, unusually for us. I’d recommend doing some long hill walks before you come to get your legs primed!
