Outstanding guide and trip itinerary near perfect, but with a few areas for improvement. There is a limit to how many souks you need to see. Fez in particular felt like one too many – very little new learnt in over an hour. Generally, I could have done with a lot more history, both cultural and political. The last 3 days were a disappointment in the sense that there was very little of interest beyond the mountains themselves and included a very long transfer. At least a day should have had a distinct focus.

Tony Bond Discover Morocco

This is an incredible trip visiting 3 Stans, and all very different from each other. The scenery and hiking in Kyrgyzstan was spectacular and the Golden Eagle experience was a real highlight. Uzbekistan was such a contrast to the first 2 countries and some of the sights were breathtakingly beautiful.
All of the countries were fascinating in their own way and our guides Vitaliy and Dilshod were excellent! Both very knowledgeable and gave us great insights and the history of each place we visited.

M B Galapagos Walking Adventure

This was a great introduction to marvelous Madeira, the Hawaii of the Atlantic. The five walks covered the stunning variety of Madeira’s landscapes; the spectacular coastal scenery of Pont Sao Lorenco and the North Coastal Path, the mystical Fanal Forest, an intimate Levada, and the incomparable Pico to Pico (recently reopened after a 2year closure). All but the Levada walk were MUST DOs. There are more iconic Levada walks (the 25 fountains or PR17), but they have become incredibly crowded due to the popularity of Madeira, and don’t have the access controls of the other trails. The beauty of the Exodus guided trip was knowing that all permits and transport needs were taken care of, and we were properly prepared for each day’s adventure! Accommodations were comfortable, and in the case of Aqua Bay Natura in Porto Moniz – SUPERB! We all had ocean view rooms with a balcony overlooking the lava pools. Access to the lava pools was free and the hotel provides robes and towels! The free day in Funchal was perfect for taking the cable car to Monte Palace and descending on the famous toboggans. Madeira is a walker’s paradise, and Exodus has curated an excellent itinerary allowing you to enjoy it stress free.

Varied mix of walks, scenery and culture.

Steve Taylor Walking in Rome, Assisi and Umbria – Premium Adventure

As with our other Exodus adventures, the trip was very well organised with a comprehensive itinerary. We did a loop of the island and saw most things you would want to see. There was good mix of temples and other ruins (Greek, Roman, etc.) and we got a good understanding of the complex history of the island (given that pretty much every empire, colonial power, etc. over the last 3000 years had bulldozed their way through the island). Our excellent leader Tiziano (more below) introduced us to the culture, food, etc. of Sicily. The itinerary was full-on, but there was time to slow down and explore. The local guides were very good. A particular shout out to Vanessa who showed us around Catania and Neapolis with a fun, honest, and critical eye.
