Excellent tour… Marvelous scenery, great food, good hotels and outstanding guide.
Every day was inspiring because of the great views
Adrian was fantastic, always available, responsible, knowledgeable
Read carefully the trip notes and the exercises planning for the trip. It is a challenging tour.
The trip followed the beautiful coastal route, the hotels were excellent and the restaurants and food was great. The guides were perfect: considerate, helpful, fun, informative and extremely attentive to all of our needs. There was variety in the route as well, we rode through villages, along the coast, through forests, and through marshes. Like minded people tend to do this tour so many friendships were made along the way. I opted for the electric bike and never regretted the choice – I was able to select how much effort I wished to make and was therefore not intimidated by the climbs and was able to enjoy the scenery.
The beauty of the coastal section from Nazarè village
Dinis was informative, attentive, interesting helpful, encouraging, fun, just the perfect leader.
Don't be shy to book the electric bike, a few of the cyclists in our group opted to change halfway through and loved how it enhanced their experience.
An incredible trip with great people across beautiful scenery, in particular the mountain areas. Dhimitri our guide was fantastic (very good dry sense of humour) and Visi provided excellent vehicle/ logitics support. Literally, I cannot think of one thing to fault either of them, their organisational skills were 1st class.
Mountain climb on the final cycle day.
Excellent, very experienced and knowledgeable and a pleasure to be around.
Do the trip before Albania becomes more popular and the roads get busier.
A great trip visiting a lot of beautiful Towns with informative tour guides, also providing free time to explore. The wine tasting at Majnoni Guicciardini was a fantastic setting, informative and picturesque. The trip to Siena and hearing all about The Palio was inspiring and our tour guide in Florence imparted so much knowledge. In all, a great week of exploring the many highlights of Tuscany and the beautiful scenery. The pace was just right with plenty of time to partake in wine tasting!
Hearing about The Palio, this history and traditions and spending time in Siena. The other towns we visited like San Gimignano and Volterra were great experiences too.
Alejandro was exceptional! He looked after the group really well. Informative and knowledgeable, he injected warmth and humour and mixed well with the group.
As in the other review, insect repellent is a must!
A fantastic tour with two knowledgeable, engaging, caring and highly professional tour guides, Francisco and Rafael. The mix of hillside and coastal walks interspersed with some visits to local industries and artisans gave us a real insight into the rich culture of the Algarve. Grade 2 is right but definitely moderate rather than leisurely with a couple of more challenging stretches during the walks – take walking poles if you are thinking about using them. The 3 hotels were all very good. Like previous Exodus trips we clicked with enough of the group to have some great conversations and a lot of laughs. Highly recommended.
Final cliff walk to Cabo de Sao Vicente was a fitting finale
Francisco was excellent throughout the trip.
Be prepared for moderate rather than leisurely walks.
Overall this is an amazing trip which is very scenic and on a lot of cycle paths. We were unlucky to get rain and a head wind for the first few days which made it more difficult. The hotels were great and the other people in my group were good company and supportive. Excellent organisation and support from three guides. I treated myself to an e-bike on the last day as my legs were tired.
Seeing people older than me overtaking the ebikes! There were some very fit people in my group
Dinis is so mature for his age. He is funny helpful and kind. Lionel was also really supportive and encouraging. Philip worked very hard looking after the the van and bikes. I couldn’t have wished for a better team.
Take a properly waterproof coat! Also on bad weather days a dry top or warm jacket In the van to put on at lunch stops as I got cold when I was soaked to the skin. I trained on a road bike but these bikes were a lot heavier on the hills..
I couldn’t believe it when I stumbled on this tour. Walking and wine! Two things I love and a journey through the countryside. For months, I anticipated the trip and planned. A friend decided to join me. And what a trip it was! Wonderful in every way. Our tour leader Carla and her husband Fernando were the perfect hosts. Because they grew up & live in the region, I felt like we were getting a hyper local, personal experience. We were able to see their home through their eyes, as Carla told stories of history, culture, recipes, current community challenges. Every day was a different landscape -all beautiful- and the food & wine was fantastic. I don’t want to give away the little surprises that were along the way, but I can promise enjoyment of them. Most days, we had a walk in the morning (a few steep hills, but mostly flat, minimum 5 miles) followed by a lovely lunch, and then we had free time in the afternoon. I really liked that we only had 3 hotels for the week. I could settle in, and the views from the rooms were something else! Weather was hot in September. I highly recommend this tour if you want to really get to know the friendly, welcoming country of Portugal and make new friends along the way!
Al fresco lunches at wineries
Absolutely fantastic! I can’t imagine this tour without her experience of the region and connections to the wineries, restaurants,and locals.
Be ready to walk! Bring good shoes and a hat. On the hillsides, the sun is hot. Save space to buy wine along the way. I brought home 4 bottles. Approach the trip with an open heart.
We had a fantastic tour with Luis and Teresa! They were both very attentive and had a wealth of knowledge about the places we visited. The walking was varied and the views were spectacular. Although the weather was not always the best, Luis and Teresa adapted the itinerary to ensure we could still have all the experiences promised. Would highly recommend.
Fantastic!
We joined 14 other folks for a wonderful week of cycling in Sicily. Beautiful towns and countryside steeped in history. Our tour guide Davide Di Mauro was exceptional – he looked after us start to finish. He made the trip so much more interesting than just a cycling holiday. His love of Sicily continually shone through.
Exploring such beautiful towns which I hardly knew. Palazzolo, Scicli, Noto, Modica, and the magnificent Siracusa.
Davide was excellent. His diligence, attention to detail, including bike safety, his knowledge and love of Sicily all made for a great holiday. If Davide is your guide - you will enjoy this cycling holiday.
My one reason not to give 5 stars, was that the joining instructions provided by Exodus had an error, and we showed up at the wrong hotel. Once sorted, all went very well.
The hiking in the Dolomites was awesome. One day was a little long 20km and not very interesting given the extra distance. But overall, I enjoyed all the hikes. The food is the hotel was disappointing. As a vegetarian, my choices were limited and the servings were quite small. One day we had 3/4 of a potatoes as our main. Another day it was a marinated vegetable. The advertised Tryrolian dinner was also not very good. Although the waiter was able to secure a chicken schnitzel and fries for those of us not eating beef.
Dinners were also too long after. Full day of hiking.
Standing in front of and among the Tre Cimes.
He tried hard. He was quiet at time. While we appreciated him allowing us to go at our pace, we worried a bit when he spit us the groups and sent some of us on our own.
Ask for menus in advance and try to get alternative meals prepared. Be prepared to hike longer and longer amounts than described in the trip notes.
