A fascinating trip, hard work but worth it. Guide was excellent and Jordan itself is an exceptional country.
Standing where Moses stood to first see the Promised Land and looking out over the Westbank, the Dead Sea and the historic lands beyond.
Very good, a wealth of knowledge and went out of his way to make the trip special for all of us.
Take lots of high factor sun screen!
A truly amazing and unforgettable experience with an abundance of variety – the breathtaking beauty and tranquility of the countryside in the off-the-beaten-track areas we walked, the splendour of tombs and museums visited, the multitude of attractions to be enjoyed in Beijing and Xian and all the while expeiencing incredible hospitality from our hosts and our enthusiastic, informative, and attentive guide, Kevin.
When trekking to Jinshanling, we descended from the Wall to bypass a military area and walked through a forest area and then along a narrow pass through cornfields, corn towering over our heads on either side, not a sound to be heard, beautiful sunshine in early September - a total 'get away from the pressures of life' experience!The first breathtaking sight of the Terracotta Warriors when you walk into Pit 1 - the sheer scale of it!Cycling along the top of the city wall in Xian at sunset.Every meal - truly fantastic food, from the homestays to the Mongolian hotpot restaurant in Xian.
There is none better than Kevin - if Carlesberg made group leaders........!He could not do enough for our group from the initial meeting at the airport on arrival to the final goodbye. He was informative, attentive far beyond the call of duty and boundlessly enthusiastic. He provided a wonderful insight into Chinese life and culture which enriched the trip greatly, made wonderful food choices for us and always with a smile on his face - and... he even 'got' our Irish humour! - our group of 11 had endless laughs and fun.
September was a perfect time to visit - two whole weeks with not a drop of rain, balmy temperatures perfect for walking, no need for sleeping bags or additional warm clothing.Keep your camera close at hand - endless opportunities which will become your fabulous memories.Practice squating in advance (for those toilets) - its easier in walking boots! Leave some free space in the bag going out - for all that 'designer' gear you won't be able to resist in the markets, bargains abound and lots of fun to be had haggling.
First (but not last!) cycling holiday and WOW ! what a way to see a country. I have wanted to go to Vietnam for nearly 2o years and discovering Exodus allowed be to discover the whole of this beautiful country, meet some fantastic people whilst challenging my fitness and cycling skills. From start to finish, this trip was well thought through, the local support excellent and the country and people simply wonderful.
Lots and lots of things, the scenery of the country is just amazing. I guess the hardest day cycling was doing 70km uphill (took us 7 hours), knowing that you were about to do that was a bit foreboding, but eveyone supported everyone else and the motivated that came from all of the group kept us all going. Getting to the top and seeing the view down was pretty awesome. Freewheeling the 30km downhill was pretty amazing too!
Lam was superb, very information, great sense of humour, kept us all motovated and amused throughout our stay.
Take part in everything, stop and take pictures with the locals (they are very friendly). We saved al the toothbrushes etc that were put in our hotels along the way and gave them out in one of the poorest areas, the kids and parents alike were delighted.
A fantastic trip, wonderful experiences, great food and great people.
At least three inspirational moments: 1) Seeing a fantastic show of Northern Lights night after night.2) Spending a morning driving a husky sledge and then snowshoeing in the wonderful Riisitunturi National Park in the aftrenoon.3) Driving a skidoo through the Finnish wilderness.
Meiju was a wonderful leader; friendly, knowledgeable and always with a smile on her face.
Exodus provide all the cold weather gear you need, so you can pack light. Make sure you do both the husky and skidoo "optionals". They are both great.
An excellent and informative introduction to Antarctica. You could not wish for a better trip.
The Icebergs, stunning beauty and serenity
Very well informed, and a good attention to bio-security
Read the pre-trip advice carefully, bring sufficient drink to avoid steep on board prices.
The cruise we went on was March 2012,it was a once in a life time holiday.Wonderful memories and I would advise any one who is thinking of going to just do it.I went with my husband and we had planned to go for a couple of years.We very much wanted to see as many islands as possible and of course wildlife.What a fantastic trip we had and found it difficult to fault anything about the holiday.
The whole trip was inspirational and I find it difficult to say what was the most inspirational moment.Even after all these months I can remember lots of wonderful images .Both my self and husband read all the reviews written from fellow travellers and we identified all the points.The Cachalote was fantastic ,we had a wonderful crew and fellow passengers,which is a key factor on this type of holiday. The wild life experience ,on the land and in the sea exceeded all our expectations,swimming with those turtles,sharks and seeing the rays glide past was unreal .The playful sea lions just seem to be there for the sheer love of folks. Snorkelling is a must we had not done it before,such a wonderful feeling once you get the hang of it. Every island had different surprise's to offer,well worth the walks and climbs.
Group leader in Quito was excellent and gave us lots of advice.As a group we did the suggested itinerary and that worked very well and we saw lots .See other reviews from travellers who went on this holiday in March2012. The Group leader in the Galapagos was excellent ,the information she provided was of a very high standard.The briefings each day were brilliant,I would advise travellers to take a photo each day of the briefing board for your future travel log.The Group leader was very realistic and offered sensible advice throughout the trip.We found if you listened and followed instructions you would get more out of the holiday. Just master that getting on and off Cachalote and the islands/beaches on to the zodiac and you will be fine. Crew members were also an excellent source of information and always ready to be of assistance.
Do your research read the notes provided,ensure this is the holiday for you.Boat can be bit rough at times, however you do get use to it.This is not a relaxing holiday remember it is an adventure.Cabins are small you do need to be organised, but it is Great! we would advise any one to go. If possible watch the BBC Richard Attenborough films before you go....and yes it is just like that in real life. We took our own snorkelling gear and thought that was a good idea,although there is enough on board. My view is that I would have liked my own shortie wet suit.
It was a very varied tour, during which we experienced very versatile landscapes, ranging from desert to the coast, plateaus and gorges. We saw lots of wild life during these days, which culminated in 3 days in Etosha National Park. Definitely worth it and highly recommendable.
Breakfast at the foot of Dune 45 after an early morning start seeing the sun rise over the Namibian landscape. It was magical having our breakfast in the middle of the desert surrounded by the red sand of the Namib desert.
Ronney made our Namibia tour an unforgettable experience, about which we still talk enthusiastically after 6 months. He is a great ambassador for his country, sharing knowledge about plants, animals and landscape. Working relentlessly and discretely in the background, he created a really nice atmosphere, allowing us to experience a worry-free holiday of which we enjoyed every minute. He is very good with all members of the group, being patient, approachable and friendly at all times. When rooms of different standards had to be allocated between the group members he demonstrated great diplomatic skills, leading to the group accepting the situation and being content that the best solution had been found.Through his commitment, hard work and enthusiasm Ronney made our holidays a special experience. For this and to recognise his dedication to the job and the group we recommend him for the tourleader award 2012.
Take lots of memory cards for your camera and spare batteries as they are not as freely available as in Europe. Pack varied clothes as the mornings can be very cold (we went in August) but during the day - especially inland - it can get quite warm. Layers do pay off. When doing the lodge based tour, take a hair dryer with you, as they are not available everywhere.
I Had a great time on this holiday. Food was fantastic and the walking pace was perfect. The guide was calm and confident and told us about the areas we were in.
Getting to the top of Mt Toubkal was amazing. The views were great and overall it was a brilliant experience. There was a 60 year woman on our trip and she made it to the top.
The group leader was excellent, very calm, confident and collected!
bring food sickness tablets
mostly the friendliness of the small groups makes these holidays so special, with singles, such as myself being so readily integrated into the group, especially an elderly person, such as myself. I felt very privileged to be able to take part in all the activities without (I hope) spoiling things for the others.
what I found so inspirational was the organisation was so smooth, everything done as we were promised with friendliness from all quarters. I really felt I had had a holiday when I came home.
very good, always helpful and patient and well organised.
just go along with an open mind.....prepare to be friendly........sometimes things might no go as planned but have a laugh about it and enjoy yourself
It was a week of beautiful scenery, good company and experiencing the wonders of winter activities. This was my first winter holiday, and although slighly nervous about some of the activities as I had never done them before, the experience was not a disappointment and was something I would recommend to anyone.
The dogsledding was for me, my most inspirational moment, there is no other feeling than being as one with the dogs and seeing scenary that you would not normally see from the road, it was completely mystical. The dogs were great as well albeit some hair-raising moments when I thought I was going to lose control of my sled.
The group leader was very friendly and accomodating. If you ever needed any information, advise or assistance both the group leader and his team were available and would always go the extra mile to help.
Give everything a go... if you are a complete novice like I was then it is easy to want to skip certain activities however the leaders are very supportive, so if you have the money look at the additional activities that you can do like the rock climbing or jet skiing - promise you it will be a great experience!
