Best holiday ever!
Just back from a fabulous trip cycling in Sicily lead by Davide . Davide went above and beyond to make sure that we all had the best possible experience cycling in Sicily, above all ensuring our safety, well being and enjoyment of this wonderful area. Davide was born, grew up and has studied in this gorgeous landscape. Davide can tell you the history, geography and culture of this land which he loves so passionately .

Day 6, the hardest cycling day but the most amazing experience in terms of the natural beauty of the area and my personal sense of achievement
Thoughts on Group Leader
Davide was outstanding in creating a safe, trusting and harmonious group of cyclists from different nations, ages and abilities and enabled us all to have the most fantastic week exploring Italy by bike.

Beautiful Tuscan countryside, good wine, delicious food, and history
I thoroughly enjoyed this trip. It was a great blend of walking through the beautiful Tuscan countryside, tasting organic wines, sampling delicious local foods, and getting a bit of Renaissance and medieval history with visits to Sienna, Florence, and San Girmignano.
Most Inspirational Moment
Witnessing the passion of the younger generation who have chosen to continue the legacy of small family run wine and olive farms. This is very heartening in an over commercialized world.

I can’t say enough about Roberta. She has a wonderful, positive energy and sincere passion for the area. She is extremely caring and has a natural ability to make everyone feel included without it feeling forced at all.

Most Inspirational Moment
Arriving in to Santiago de Compostela. As always, when you have put in the time and effort, reaching the destination is so satisfying and rewarding.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our leader Aitor was top notch. He was full of knowledge, bonded really well with us and made sure we all had the best experience possible. An absolute superstar.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Make sure your shoes are well worn in and you should escape blisters. The walking isn’t on difficult terrain just long days but taken at a relaxing pace. That said plenty of training walks and a good level of fitness always helps for a better experience.
Take time to talk and bond with your fellow travellers but also take time for yourself on the walks.
The hotels are a good standard and the food excellent everywhere we went.

Amazing Vietnam Family Adventure
This was my first Exodus cycle tour and an amazing way to get a real feel for Vietnam – I absolutely loved it. We did it as a family with our 19 and 21 yr old daughters and it was a huge success all round. From the first meet we felt super looked after by our amazing guide Lok, drivers Sau and Nhan and the mechanic Zee who was so often supporting me at the back of the group! Everything about the tour was very well organized and so good that 2 of the group were on their 3rd and 4th times respectively.
Most Inspirational Moment
Probably completing the Hi Van Pass climb in really challenging heat, and then again the 30km decent a few days before was pretty inspiring
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our group leader Lok worked tirelessly to ensure everything ran smoothly and couldn't have been a nicer guy, as well as being very professional and informative .
Advice for Potential Travellers
Try and spend a couple of days in Ho Chi Mihn city before the start and in Hanoi at the end - both really interesting cities and Choose this tour it's a cracker!

Great cycling, crappy accomodations
I guess that old adage is true, you get what you pay for. This trip was cheaper than other cycling trips I have been on but it was also in a more inexpensive country. From sagging mattresses to sewer smells to non-functioning AC or heating the housing was awful.

A MUST IF YOU LOVE WILDLIFE
I just completed the Whales & Bears of British Columbia tour and it was incredible. From the first ferry ride to Vancouver Island, I was immersed in wild coastline and ancient rainforest. We spotted humpback whales breaching off the bow and watched black bears comb the shoreline for crabs. A full-day outing to the Orford River treated us to grizzlies feasting on salmon amid misty fjords. The group was small, the guides passionate, and every day brought something surprising. Yes, there were long drives and changeable weather, but it all added to the adventure. I’d highly recommend it
Most Inspirational Moment
I watched a grizzly emerge from the trees and wade into the river, salmon flashing beneath the surface. The air was thick with the scent of cedar and salt, and for a moment, everything was completely still
Thoughts on Group Leader
Sabrina was brilliant, she new so much about Canada and the island and it added so much value
Advice for Potential Travellers
Pack for all weather. Coastal BC can shift from sunshine to rain in minutes — bring waterproof layers and quick-dry clothes.
Binoculars and a good zoom lens are worth their weight in gold for wildlife viewing.
Be patient and quiet during bear and whale watching — the best moments come when you least expect them.

Absolutely spectacular
This was a truly amazing adventure, Bhutan is a magical place with wondrous scenery and architecture. The people are warm and welcoming and the sights and sounds of the festivals was incredible with the bright costumes, colours and music. The whole trip was well organised and our tour leader was fantastic and so knowledgeable. I knew Bhutan was going to be good but this trip exceeded my expectations, I can’t wait to return.
