Very good trip and much better than expected as the organisation was excellant including the general standard of accommodation. The experience gave us a better and clearer understanding of the people, history, agriculture and landscape of the country.

The early morning overall view of Machu Picchu and the appreciation of the planning and construction of the lost city. Also having the experience of staying one night on the Amantani Island with a local family.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Juan, our group leader, was first class and he really made the trip very interesting and very enjoyable. He was always very happy,friendly and good fun to be with throughout the trip. He considered everyone and always gave assistance where necessary.We would definately recommend him as the best guide we have ever experienced on any previous trip.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Mke sure you have the correct medication for the particular country being visited and take the advice of the guide especially in high altitudes.
EVEREST BASE CAMP
This holiday was the most amazing holiday ever. The views were out standing ,wonderful. The Exodus team looked after us very well. I would recommend this holiday to any one who loves to trek, but you do need to be fit. The group of people that were on this trek were brilliant and they helped make the holiday.
Most Inspirational Moment
There were so many amazing things about this holiday . The flight to Lukla was incredible and the views were out of this world.
Thoughts on Group Leader
The group leader Prem was wonderful. He told us lots of information along the way. We had fun with him and the other sherpas. They helped to make this an incredible journey.
Advice for Potential Travellers
You must be fit. This is a long slow walk up and up but its worth it. Take something like Albus oil with you to help clear your head but also to help on the odd occasion with smelly loos.
IMPERIAL CHINA & YANGTZE RIVER CRUISE
An absolute full on itinerary, giving not only a taste of China, but also the full flavour of it. A country so diverse, both modern and old. This was my fourth trip to the country, and it most definitely won’t be my last.
Most Inspirational Moment
Too many to note - the pandas in Chengdu, the scenery of Yangshou county (the Li River and Yu Long River), Shanghai with its imposing skyline, tallest building in China, Bund and frantic shopping areas - also returning to the Terracotta Warriors, which I had visited ten years ago - they still hold the magic they always did.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Dragon was amazing - totally unflappable despite having to get 16 of us through numerous stations, on and off trains and from one place to another. He was very informative, knowledgeable and very approachable.
Advice for Potential Travellers
This tour gives you everything you need from the China experience, and it will also make you want to return again and again to a very diverse, although imposing, country. It is full on, but bring an open mind with you, and you will be rewarded in the end.
CYCLE MOROCCO'S GREAT SOUTH
Overrall a well run and efficiently organised trip. Experience of cycling and/or good level of fitness is a must as some of the climbs and descents ar not or the faint hearted
Most Inspirational Moment
On the fourth day of cycling when thinking there was no gas left in the tank by mid afternnon being encouraged by the leader to carry on and experience what was further on up the road on bike rather than in support vehicle. Gave greater sense of achievement once finished
Thoughts on Group Leader
Excellent leader. Organised, efficient and didnt bulls**t you if there were changes to plan. Always kept group informed and provided the encouragement to keep going when necessary. Ensured health and safety adhered to by all and definitely made trip more enjoyable.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Dont go unless you have a decent standard of fitness for your own enjoyment's sake and that of the group. It would help to have some bike experience too
ATLAS DESCENT
Atlas Descent:- Did exactly what it said on the tin! Absolutely loads of off-road descents. Beautiful scenery. Remote location. Great trip!
Most Inspirational Moment
Single track steep descent on the 4th day... warmed up and ready for it from previous days of riding... steeper than all other pistes. Hair raising - technical enough - exilerating and fun!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Liz was a top guide. Tiny lass with big personality and the legs that jet from the gladiator would be proud of! Really enjoyed the routes and rides of this trip; lots of variation .. some of which Liz said she had discovered on her days off! An inspiration- loved her cycling trails and top fun lady.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Enjoy!
AMALFI COAST: POMPEII & PIZZA - FAMILY HOLIDAY
If you are thinking about booking this holiday just do it – you won’t regret it.
Most Inspirational Moment
Our 8 year old son would say watching football with the Italian family who owned the hotel! We particularly enjoyed the walk of the gods and the superb barbecue, visiting Pompeii, and swimming in the sea with the beautiful background of Positano.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Excellent. Paula could not have done more for us. She even came with us on her day off to show us round Naples! She was very enthusiastic. She got on well with everyone and ensured we all gelled together. She was very informative and great fun. Paula got on well with the children and ensured that they were well catered for. We would recommend her most highly and would be interested in undertaking other tours she may lead.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Relax, go with the flow, take lots of cash with you to pay tips etc.
ATLAS DESCENT
A really interesting trip which has something for every type of cyclist, from rough trails to fast smooth tarmac. The scenery is stunning and so varied.

Thoughts on Group Leader
Liz is a great leader. I had 100% faith in her at all times. She is very practical beng able to easily fix any problem with the bikes. She was always checking the bikes, pre-empting any problems. A great bonus is that she knows the trails inside out. The leader could make or break a trip, and Liz certainly made the trip the great success it was.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Don't worry about anything as Exodus has done the trip so many times that everything is taken care of. You need to be reasonably fit and not too timid for some of the trails.
THE AMALFI COAST
Good mix of classic history and walking.
Most Inspirational Moment
Views to Capri and Positano on the Walk of the Gods
Thoughts on Group Leader
Fantastic. Christine's knowledge of the area added tremendously to the enjoyment of the walking.
