Fantastic walking and stunning scenery

The Tour du Mont Blanc is an iconic trek and was a fantastic experience with treks in France , Italy and Switzerland as we circled the Mont Blanc area. 10 days of long walks with large ascents and descents often on difficult terrain. Camping adds its own challenges . 3 rest days were useful to recover and have opportunity to explore courmayeur and Chamonix . Overall a great trip and would recommend it

The Best Trails in Spain's Oldest National Park

I loved the hikes on this trip, especially the gorge walk and the hike on day 6. Really enjoyed the week in the mountains with our group and spending the week in Arenas de Cabrales. Most hikes we did not see anyone so it was nice feeling we had the trails to ourselves. The gorge walk is very popular so there are other hikers, but it is a long walk so did not feel crowded. Really impressed with the hikes on the itinerary. I feel I could not do these hikes on my own and find some of these trails so being with an experienced guide with Exodus was the way to go.

A fantastic (but challenging!) week in the beautiful mountains of Transylvania

Transylvania is a fantastic destination for hiking with stunning scenery, fabulous views, and so many wildflowers.
The areas we hiked in felt remote and unspoilt. We saw very few hikers on the routes we took and even had one of the mountain huts to ourselves.
As some of the other reviews say, this is a challenging week and requires a good head for heights (some parts are very exposed) and a good level of fitness. The days are long (8-10 hours of walking on the first three days, 6 hours on the last three days as the walks were cut short to avoid afternoon storms) which means little ‘down time’. The terrain is varied (rocks and scree, pastures, meadows, forests).
A significant amount of scrambling is required the first three days, and in particular the third when heading up to La Om. The other days don’t require scrambling but are still demanding in terms of the terrain and elevation gain/loss.
Two nights are spent in simple huts, with basic facilities (outside drop toilets), but the location of Cabana Malaiesti is spectacular as well worth it.

An unforgettable journey through Japan

I travelled as a Exodus staff member – this was fantastic trip that showcased a diverse side of Japan beyond the major cities. The itinerary was well balanced, the food was incredible, and every destination offered something unique. Highlights included staying in a traditional guesthouse in Nikko, relaxing in a private onsen, and visiting places like Gion and Miyajima. Highly recommended.

A triumph of a trip!

This trip to Norway was a really spectacular experience. We did so much and each day we looked at what we’d done and it was amazing discussing how much we had fit into each day. However, somehow the pace felt gentle and relaxing and there was space to breathe and take it all in. It was so more than a sightseeing holiday. I felt that we made true personal connections and learned so much from the local interactions entwined into this journey. The landscapes were of course a huge highlight but learning to cook a local dish, sharing a cider with the owner of a stunning Fjord-side orchard, chatting to our wonderful guide about her life in Norway. These were the things which made this trip extraordinary and set it apart from others. Oh and the food will blow you away!

Elephants and Hippos galore!

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.

Experience the REAL Norway

As an Exodus reservations team member who has travelled on many Exodus trips of all types, this one truly took my breath away! And I’m not just talking about the Arctic dip we took in the sea after warming up in the sauna one morning.
Nothing was too much trouble, and the hospitality was some of the best I have ever experienced. Every detail felt effortless, every host genuinely passionate about sharing their corner of Norway.

You genuinely taste your way through Norway, from a bacalao cooking experience and an organic cider tour overlooking the fjords that felt straight out of a storybook, to sampling reindeer and steak, and raise a horn of mead in a Viking house to the thrum of “Skål!” and “Cheers!”

The itinerary is perfectly crafted, making each day feel like the turn of a page in a very old book filled with dramatic landscapes, trolls and medieval history.

Perfect for anyone wanting to not just say they’ve been to Norway, but that they’ve explored its wild heart and experienced the stories, traditions and landscapes that make this country so unforgettable.

Trip of a Lifetime

This safari exceeded every expectation. Exodus has created an outstanding itinerary that showcases the very best of Botswana and Zimbabwe, combining incredible wildlife encounters with comfortable lodges, knowledgeable guides, and unforgettable experiences.
The wildlife viewing was simply exceptional and we were fortunate enough to witness some truly remarkable moments.
The lodges were all unique, each with its own character, but every one was comfortable, welcoming and of excellent quality. The food was good and plentiful.
We travelled with three couples and five solo travelers, and it was an absolute pleasure sharing this adventure with such wonderful people. The friendships, laughter and shared excitement added another special dimension to an already incredible experience.

Cycling in sunny Sicily

We just returned from this trip (June, 2026) and were blessed with nice sunny weather (not too hot fortunately) and a great group of cyclist with a passionate local leader!

Waterfalls, valleys and glaciers!

As an Exodus staff member, I recently had the pleasure of visiting this incredible country, Norway. I was blown away by how stunning the landscapes were, including numerous waterfalls and valleys created by ancient glaciers still visible today! Our group had a refreshing mix of people; forever laughing and enjoying our best life exploring the Fjords!
