Cape Town to Victoria Falls - Hotel/Lodge

The organisation and execution of the trip met all expectations – the types of person using Exodus were highly compatible with each other, the number of participants was sensible, the accommodation was generally good.

Most Inspirational Moment

Our Guide, Petrous, found all the game that we'd been expecting - amazing.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Really knowledgeable about the animals, birds, and places we visited. Excellent at finding and identifying animals for us to see. Great driver of the bus - and good chaperone for border crossings and town visits. Prepared great food for our lunches and breakfasts. Kept us all together and moving!!

Fantastic Highlights Tour of Albania

I encourage anyone who wants to learn more about Albania to take this cultural tour. I hope you are lucky and get Artur as your guide and Diu as your driver. These men are pros. I loved traveling around the country to visit several UNESCO World Heritage sites, small towns, the national forest, and the coast line. Albania is changing so quickly as it commercially develops. You can still experience the old Albania through its traditional costumes, dances, and small towns.

Most Inspirational Moment

Standing at the panoramic viewpoint before the National Park and watching a paraglider sail off into air!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Artur is a true professional. He loves his country and shares all the ways that it has changed since the times of the fascist government and communist regime. I learned so much. He had a wonderful way to draw our group together so we felt like family. I also wanted to mention our excellent driver (Diu) who made us feel so safe in the way he drove the mountaineous roads.

Advice for Potential Travellers

You’ll spend some long days on the bus. You’ll need to get Albanian currency or euros to pay for your meals and drinks in the small towns. They often don’t take credit cards.

Highlights of Portugal

The trip was well organised, accommodation was very good, our guide was excellent. The information I received before travelling was helpful and informative.

Most Inspirational Moment

The Douro, Nazare.

Thoughts on Group Leader

She was very informative, helpful with any questions or information individuals required or asked for. She very quickly knew everyone’s names so interactions were personal and genuine.

Cape Town and the Garden Route

All of our experiences with Exodus have been positive and we really enjoy the itineraries that are available.

Most Inspirational Moment

Whale watching in Hermanus, game drives, wine tasting in Stellenbosch, Storms River - it's honestly hard to choose highlights because everything was so good.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Petro is one of the best guides we've ever had, and we've been on almost 20 small group tours. Her enthusiasm, organization, and knowledge were just fantastic. I would go out of my way to travel with her again.

Discover Mongolia

Very well planned and gave a good overview of the country. Trip notes were accurate and helpful

Most Inspirational Moment

Being in the Gobi desert

Thoughts on Group Leader

Bata was brilliant and 'read' the group well. His timings were accurate and he was a mine of useful information. I always felt I knew what to expect from each day.

Highlights of Albania

Exodus is a great company. I highly recommend. I have booked 10 Exodus trips since 2017.

Most Inspirational Moment

I loved all the UNESCO world heritage sites like Berat. Staying at the hotel in the National Park was amazing.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Artur is amazing. We learned so much about Albania because he shared his life story. He is incredible.

Wild about the Wild Algarve

This was a wonderful trip which exceeded my expectations in many ways: the diversity of landscapes, the variety of walks (cliffs, headlands, dunes, rocky paths) and the knowledge and care of our local guides.

Most Inspirational Moment

There were many inspiring moments along the trail: the powerful Atlantic waves relentlessly crashing against towering cliffs and the view of the coastline disappearing into the distance were powerful memories for me.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leaders were exceptionally proud, young Portuguese men who inspired in us, an understanding of this unique part of the world by sharing their knowledge and love of their country.

Advice for Potential Travellers

September and October or alternatively April and May would be the most comfortable walking months. Pack comfortable, worn-in boots as some paths are uneven and be prepared to get down and get dirty on some slopes.

On top of the World

What an amazing week we have had in the French Alps! It was the first time we have travelled with Exodus and would certainly travel with them again. So well organised from start to finish, from the information given beforehand, the pick ups, accommodation, hospitality, food and hikes. All amazing! The quality of food produced by Carolina and Seb was top class.
Our guide Adrian was so kind, funny and knowledgeable of this area he made hiking so enjoyable.

Most Inspirational Moment

The scenery was absolutely stunning everywhere we went.

Advice for Potential Travellers

The hikes are varied and not as hard as you would think for the alps.

Discover the Baltics

Traveling through the Baltic states was far more than a vacation—it was a journey into the heart of living history and local culture. From the moment we set foot in Tallinn, we were swept up by the city’s medieval magic, walking cobbled lanes beneath ancient spires and discovering lively cafés tucked away in secret courtyards. Each evening, as the old city glowed against the sky, it felt like we’d stepped into a fairy tale.
Riga took us by surprise with its dramatic Art Nouveau architecture. Every building told a story in swirling stone and ornate detail. The Central Market—with its enormous Zeppelin hangars stuffed full of local cheeses, smoked fish, and pastries—was a sensory adventure, giving us a taste of everyday life. There was a youthful buzz to the city: music on the streets, laughter in cozy bistros, and a spirit of creativity everywhere. Spending two evenings at the Latvian National Opera and Ballet, one of ballet and the second seeing the opera “Turandot,” were fantastic (and affordable).
Our time in Lithuania deepened the adventure. Vilnius radiated warmth and quiet beauty, its baroque churches and the quirky Užupis “independent republic of artists” neighborhood, with its constitution posted on mirrored panels in multiple languages, invited us to linger and explore. Strolling along the river, we reflected on the resilience woven into the region’s history. Beyond the city, Trakai Castle floating on its island was straight out of a legend.
Looking back, this adventure has left us not just with memories of beautiful places, but also a greater understanding of the region, its history, and the spirit of its people. For anyone looking for a travel experience brimming with culture, warmth, and unforgettable moments, the Baltics—especially with a guide like Andrius—are an absolute must.

Most Inspirational Moment

The most eye-opening moments came when we learned just how challenging and dangerous life was under Soviet control. Our visits to the KGB Museum and occupational museums were sobering. That and hearing first-hand accounts made us realize how precious it is to live freely, and what is currently at stake in the US.

Thoughts on Group Leader

What truly made this trip unforgettable was our leader, Andrius Mazrimas. I have been on many tours and I can say without hesitation he was the best guide I’ve ever had. Andrius combined deep local knowledge, boundless energy, and a fantastic sense of humor to keep the group engaged and inspired. His stories brought the landscape to life, and his kindness made everyone feel at home. By the end, we saw him as a good friend—someone whose enthusiasm enriched every moment and whose passion for his homeland was completely contagious.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take all the walks and adventures suggested.

Highlights of Ancient Greece

Our tour guide Georgia’s is without a doubt the best guide I’ve had the pleasure of meeting. His knowledge of Ancient Greece was incredible and he curated the tour in a way that told the story of this wonderful country with imagination, insight and passion. Very impressed with this tour.

Most Inspirational Moment

Messenger was a great highlight. The trip notes didn't go into great detail about the site which meant it was a genuine surprise as we arrived. Restaurants chosen by our guide were all outstanding. Georgios himself was the best part of the tour.

Thoughts on Group Leader

I've been on 7 trips with Exodus and many others with other companies and hand on heart Georgios is the best guide I've ever had the pleasure of meeting. His knowledge of his country's history was so extensive it was like travelling with a history professor and his ability to relay facts, dates, myths and context in a way that was always fascinating made this trip exciting and informative. I'll be recommending this tour to everyone I know based purely on his skills as a guide.
