Really enjoyed the hike up Pacaya volcano… but would probably say Tikal was the biggest highlight… a fabulous site.

Eli was an excellent guide… enthusiastic, knowledgeable and engaging… was able to come up with lots of additional off piste activities that gave additional insights into local life.

Ancient Egypt Highlights

A very memorable experience travelling from the amazing museums in Cairo, and then down to the tombs and temples of first Aswan then Luxor. We followed the stories of various characters, learning how to recognise Pharaohs and gods from their pictures and symbols. It was dusty and polluted in Cairo (and the traffic was indescribable!). Aswan was fresher and more laid back, and Luxor between the two (I was glad of my hat and drank lots of water – the sun in Valley Of The Kings was unforgiving!). The hotels were great, with beautiful pools. I was really pleased that I had chosen rooms with a Nile view where available. The food was good but for a non meat eater sometimes a little unimaginative. The Nubian restaurant in Aswan (included) and Abydos Nile View (not included) were highlights. I was also pleased that I chose to stay an extra two nights in Luxor- the pool really does float on the Nile!

Most Inspirational Moment

So difficult to choose! Obviously the pyramids are iconic, and why I chose this trip, but there is so much more! But if pushed - the mummies in the Museum of Civilisation and Abu Simbal. I have also returned home with a new inspirational hero in my life - Queen Hatshepsut!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mohamed made the whole experience. His knowledge and storytelling brought the characters to life, and this developed as we visited all the sites throughout the trip. But his kindness, patience and thoughtfulness brought such pleasure to our whole group (7 of us). Absolutely nothing was too much trouble. He was our friend, teacher and mother! He even brought us baklava baked by his Mum in Aswan. He knew everyone where we visited, he gave market sellers the evil eye if he thought we were being given a bad deal and he had an endless supply of £20 notes for toilet trips!! All the drivers were brilliant- how they cope with Cairo traffic and the endless potholes I do not know! The two local Exodus reps in Cairo and Luxor were excellent in guiding us through the airport process (security is long, inconsistent and thorough).

Advice for Potential Travellers

Go! Use your hat and sunscreen. Drink your water. Be prepared for journeys that are much longer than expected, and much more uncomfortable. Use the hotel pools and enjoy the Nile views. The pace is fine but you see an awful lot in a relatively short time which can have an overwhelming impact on all your senses. Take time to reflect, it will be over in the blink of an eye.

Discover New Zealand

Great leader, nice itinerary, good standard of accommodation

Most Inspirational Moment

Thoughts on Group Leader

Enthusiastic, knowledgeable, organised, considerate, helpful, nothing was too much trouble

Cycle the Back Roads of Sri Lanka

Fantastic leader in Ruwan, with an excellent support team made every thing happen smoothly and with many smiles. Great cycling and Ruwan knowledgeable told us about many aspects of Sri Lankan life and its history. Lots of interesting activities and places visited as well as great cycling. We were extremely well fed and watered, with a huge variety of local food and snacks. The roads bikes were great and well maintained.

Most Inspirational Moment

Completing the big climb! The gradient is relatively kind, which really helped! The leader, his team and a great group. Cycling through the tea plantations.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Ruwan is a fantastic caring leader with superb organisational and communication skills. He has a deep and wide knowledge of all things Sri Lankan and his passion for history shines through.
