A Magical Journey Through Southern Peru

Hands down one of our favorite trips! Extremely well organized tour with an amazing leader. Every day was chock full of fantastic sights and awesome scenery. The Peruvian landscape, history and culture were captivating and I still can’t believe how much we experienced. There were some long days and early starts, but we loved every minute and will cherish each memory. Our fellow travelers were a great group and we shared a lot of laughs. Kudos to our leader Renzo for making this a seamless journey through his amazing country.

Most Inspirational Moment

So many inspiring moments - first glimpse of Machu Picchu spread out below us, staying with a lovely Amantani family and learning about their traditions, spotting colorful birds and butterflies in the cloud forest, flying over the mysterious Nazca lines, watching the Andean condor soar over one of the deepest canyons...shall I go on?

Thoughts on Group Leader

Renzo was a fantastic leader! As he would say - Super Dupes! Fun & friendly, he was also incredibly organized, which made moving around much easier. He made a point of suggesting activities geared to our individual interests. The tipping kitty was a great idea so that our numerous local guides and drivers would be tipped appropriately without us having to think about it. Every restaurant he recommended was excellent and somehow he performed a miracle by getting us on a timely train in the midst of a chaotic delay. In addition, he was serious about monitoring everyone each day we were at altitude. We can't recommend him highly enough.

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you're up for a fast-paced tour through a beautiful country, don't hesitate to book. Initially anxious about the homestay, it ended up being a highlight for us. Food was excellent and plenty of safe drinking water was provided. Hydration and electrolytes (we brought Zaca tablets) were key for the altitude. Layers are necessary as the sun is quite warm at altitude, but once it sets the temp drops quickly. Some folks listened to podcasts or music during the longer drives, but even without those there is incredible scenery to keep you occupied. Bring shoes that are stiff enough for uneven and cobbled paths. Come ready to learn about Peruvian history and culture and you won't be disappointed.

Beautiful Madeira did not disappoint!

Madeira is one of the most beautiful islands I have ever seen. The hiking/walking was sometimes challenging, but the days were not extremely long. Flowers everywhere and scenery that is spectacular from above. The sunrise hike was chilly, but rewarding!

Most Inspirational Moment

Sunrise hike and the stillness of watching the sun coming up from above the clouds

Thoughts on Group Leader

Bruno was very knowledgeable as he is a local and has been leading tours for decades. He has a good sense of humor and got along well with the group.

Would go back in a heartbeat

Walking the wild Algarve is a wonderful intro to Portugal’s coastal landscape and culture. The trip offers a good balance of sightseeing, experiencing the area’s culture and tasting local food and drinks

Most Inspirational Moment

The views of the coastline from the trails are awesome and memorable

Thoughts on Group Leader

The local group leaders were very attentive to every aspects of our journey including lodging, safety on the trail, food... They shared a unique and proud perspective of the region.

Advice for Potential Travellers

This trip is for you if you are looking for the right balance between walking and discovering a new culture. The month of May offers comfortable temperature for walking as well as the beauty of numerous wild flowers along the trails

Simply Amazing

This trip to the coast of Portugal was the best. I have travelled all over the world on different trips and this one ranks at the very top of my list. The scenery, the daily hikes, the hotels and the food – all wonderful. We were fortunate to have spectacular weather. I highly recommend this trip for anyone wanting to experience truly amazing scenery and a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Most Inspirational Moment

Seeing the ocean from many angles and feeling truly blessed to be alive.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Francisco and Rafa were THE BEST - kind, informative, funny and engaging. They took the best care of us. I felt very safe every day while walking on the edge of the cliffs and experiencing views like I have never seen before.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Book this trip - you will not regret one moment.

Disappointing

We went on this trip April/May this year and the weather was cold, very wet and very windy with the odd bit of hailstone. Headwater (to whom this self-guided trip was seconded) need to get their agents in the Azores (Melo) to tighten up the transfer arrangements made by Melo and their agents (Novo Rumo) in Faial & Pico. Buses on the islands are very few and far between and cannot realistically be used for going to the start and ends of the walks. Taxis are mentioned but this needs to be stressed more in the notes. The Cantinho do Piano “self-catering” accommodation on Sao Jorge made it quite clear that the kitchen area could be used for coffee/tea making with the cooker not to be used (it was boarded in) and not even a table supplied. Not the best for making even just your own breakfast. The Aldeia da Fonte accommodation on Pico (in a gorgeous setting) really needs to put its staff on a customer relations course – a bit like Fawlty Towers where guests seemed to be an inconvenience. On Faial, the Pousada Forte da Horta was a very nice place but its dining was not equal to this and HB could be dropped there as there are many alternatives for food in Horta. As SATA has very few planes it is NOT advisable to have a domestic flight returning to Sao Miguel on the same day as the international flight home. One lost plane caused chaos one day.

Most Inspirational Moment

Seeing a blue whale.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Self-guided

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pick your time carefully if you prefer to walk in reasonably decent weather! Avoid the Cantinho do Piano accommodation. Check reviews for the Aldeia da Fonte accommodation. Possibly not a good option for self-guided walking.

AMAZING!

Fantastic area of Italy. Unspoilt rural haven.

Most Inspirational Moment

Beautiful scenery. Wow moments at every turn.

Sarà Bull

Advice for Potential Travellers

One of the best walking holidays with Exodus. Challenging at times however with Sara our wonderful guide who explained exactly the walk ,terrain etc. it enhanced our great experiences. Sara is an exceptional guide together with faithful friend Elvis. Braccicorti is a lovely family farm where the food and friendly atmosphere is a delight.

A wonderful week

Just returned from a fantastic week exploring the beautiful, flower covered mountains and stunning coastline of western Algarve.
Francisco and Rafael were wonderful guides sharing their knowledge and enthusiasm for the local culture, history and especially nature and its conservation. … all with good humour and patience.
There was a great mix of walking and visiting local artisans. Also the food was delicious!

A fabulous trip with the best guides!

This was my third trip with Exodus. The group was both diverse & lovely, with everyone bringing their own flavour & experiences along.

Our guides, Francisco & Rafael were just fantastic. As well as organising the beautiful walks there were many other activities on this trip, including some not on the itinerary, and there was clearly much planning behind the scenes.

The mix of inland & coastal walks was perfect, and the abundance of flowers unexpected & breathtaking. We were blessed with perfect weather throughout.

Most Inspirational Moment

I loved the mix of terrain & locations. The local flavour brought by our knowledgeable leaders was really what made the trip so special.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Francisco was the main leader, with Rafa as his very capable right-hand man. They work so well as a team, and their lifelong friendship really does show throughout. They were both caring & attentive to the needs of our very mixed group at all times. Their local knowledge was fabulous, covering a broad range of subjects: history, botany, wildlife, geology, etc. They clearly have a great love for Portugal, and engendered respect for the environment, local people & businesses throughout. The best guides I’ve encountered.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Book it! Portugal is beautiful, and the area covered is diverse and interesting. The guides further bring it to life for you. I managed in trail shoes & without sticks, although these were available to borrow.

Fabulous adventure!

What a terrific trip! Francisco and Raphael were both great. They were so knowledgeable and helpful all along the way. I loved walking through the villages and learning about the culture. It was my first Exodus trip, and I see more in the future.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent
