A fortnight in Chile

Great holiday from start to finish. Varied itinerary – I felt as if we’d covered a lot of ground & gained a good insight into the various areas/culture etc of Chile.

Most Inspirational Moment

Seeing the sun come up & from my bedroom window & shine on the mountains in Torres del Paine. It took my breath away.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Miguel was amazing. One of the best guides I’ve had anywhere in the world. He was very organised & made sure we were informed of the next days arrangements/timings the night before. Very knowledgeable on his country & imparted a lot of local knowledge as we travelled around. Nothing was too much trouble for him.

Advice for Potential Travellers

There were some very early mornings & long drives, although there are plenty of stops. There were 5 internal flights but these were well organised & we saw some fab scenery from the plane. The surroundings & amazing scenery make up for this.

Best Exodus trip ever

Start to finish this was a fantastic trip. Our guide Clifford shared his deep knowledge of everything: animals and birds, trees and flowers, South African history and culture, hiking trail specifics and the smallest details about life in South Africa and Eswatini. Plus he was caring and kind and fun to be with. I really feel like I gained an understanding of the real South Africa because of Clifford and also the variety of experiences on this trip. We saw all the animals we had hoped to see, the hiking was challenging and extremely rewarding. The Drackensburg hikes were exceptional – scenery that is so beautiful that words and pictures cannot capture it. Even being there, on top of the “Amphitheatre”, the grandeur, the immensity of the views, were impossible to truly fathom. Wow.

Most Inspirational Moment

Being on top of the Amphitheatre - the massive escarpment that makes up the spine of the Drackensburgs. Also, witnessing a pride of lions devouring a recently killed Cape Buffalo.

Thoughts on Group Leader

The absolute best we've ever had (of 7 Exodus trips).

Advice for Potential Travellers

The hiking is more challenging than "moderate", with technical aspects like crossing fast flowing rivers and climbing a 100 foot chain ladder up a cliff face.

Great trip

Wonderful trip through a unique part of India. As usual with Exodus we had a great group of like minded travelers and a variety of things to see and experience. There was a good mix of urban and nature. Cochin would have been a lot better if the hotel was in Fort Cochin. Too much time was spend driving back and forth.

Most Inspirational Moment

The early morning walks through Madurai and the Manjira village were my favorites. It was beautiful to watch how the local people start their day before all the daily frenzy begins.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Vishnu was genuinely invested in our enjoying ourselves. He also became an excellent bird spotter once he realized some of us were very interested in the local birds.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Enjoy, take a camera. The local people are lovely and very welcoming.

The Inca Trail

Good selection of trips, well organised itineraries, great customer service.

Most Inspirational Moment

Knowledge of the guides & experience of the trek. Support team of porters & chef was excellent. Scenery was stunning

Thoughts on Group Leader

Edwind was a brilliant guide. His experience & knowledge was faultless throughout the trip. He made sure everyone was happy, healthy & were enjoying themselves. He was sociable & encouraged the group to work as a team. He made us all feel safe & well looked after. His passion for his country & the history of it, showed in everything he did. Edwind made the difference between it being a great experience & an amazing one. A really great guy.

Discover Marrakech & the Sahara

It was such a great experience

Most Inspirational Moment

Having Khaled as our tour leader was such a joy. He tirelessly looked after us, made lots of great suggestions for optional extras and was a font of info with regard to any queries about Moroccan society and history. I particularly enjoyed the walk up the beautiful valley to the village and staying overnight in the Gite. It gave me a great insight into how people there live and enjoy their lives. We also really enjoyed our trip into the magical Sahara desert.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Khaled was a brilliant guide who raised the enjoyment levels of the holiday enormously. He is such an asset to Exodus and a positive force in the world

Highlights of Morocco

The trip was excellently organised and the tour guide was extremely friendly and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed the whole trip and having everything organised for us including transfers and hotels was exactly what I needed for this holiday.

Most Inspirational Moment

Camel riding in the desert and the music in the desert camping, walking through the Atlas mountains, Mosque in Casablanca, visiting Rabat

Thoughts on Group Leader

Lachan managed the group extremely well, especially through some challenging situations and personalities with some of the group not wanting to stick with the tour or keeping to times. He was extremely knowledgeable about all of the questions we asked him, and all of the recommendations he made for food and places to visit for dinner and free days etc. were wonderful!

Walking in Andalucia

As always the accommodation was appropriate for the activity – good bedrooms, excellent food and comfortable common areas. The Guide, Mike was very knowledgeable about a very wide range of Spanish culture and history and shared that knowledge in an intersection and informative way.

Most Inspirational Moment

So many, the challenging walk along the Caminito del ray, to the tapas lunches and the walks through olive groves and woodland. Probably the main highlight was the last walk up Penon de Al Gametes.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mike was always encouraging, he shared the huge wealth of information that he has about the area and its industry, the history of Spain and its place in the world affairs and the flora and fauna. He clearly is a well known and popular person in the local community and wider afield.

The Best Way to Explore Girona and Beyond!

Cycling Girona and the Catalan Coast was the perfect balance of adventure and relaxation it was also my first Cycling trip! The routes were peaceful and well-planned, passing through authentic villages, rolling countryside, and the most beautiful stretches of coast!
Our guide was fantastic – knowledgeable, friendly, and always made the days fun. The E-bikes were a great option for anyone wanting a little extra confidence on the hills. An unforgettable way to experience Northern Spain!

Most Inspirational Moment

For me, the most inspiring moment was cycling through tiny villages with no one else around, just the sound of the wind and the countryside! It was such a peaceful and immersive way to explore a country and truly felt so present in the moment. I found the whole experience really meditative, my work life is spent behind screens all day and it was amazing to spend a week away from screens and just live in the moment!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader was Miguel and he was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable about the areas visited and gave detailed tours around the villages. Miguel made an effort to speak with every person in the group and really helped gel everyone together, we ate at some delicious restaurants at his recommendation including an amazing locals secret where we were the only tourists yet packed full of locals. Shout out to Alfonzo our support vehicle driver who made sure everyones bikes were well maintained throughout including freshly charged batteries for the E-Bikers! Perfect double act together. :)

Advice for Potential Travellers

Get yourself a cycling vest with pocket storage - trust me, it’s a game changer! You’ll stop a lot for photos, and having your phone right there means no rummaging through the Panier every time!

Highlights of Turkey

This is a fast moving trip in that you spend mostly one night in each place. There was some hiking, walking, and swimming. We saw so many wonderful sights and had a taste of speciality food known for the area.

Most Inspirational Moment

Aspendos Roman Theatre, whirling Dervishes, hiking through Ihilara Valley. It was all so amazing.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Ilhan was very knowledgeable and organized. He accommodated the group as needed especially when we had slower moving travelers. He organized group dinner at local restaurants and explained the speciality foods from the region. He was a superb guide.

Cycling the Mediterranean Coast in Spain

Javier and Miguel were incredible. I plan to go on other trips where they or either one of them are our leaders. They were excellent, very knowledgeable, fun to be with and provided excellent history and guidance for our whole team!

Most Inspirational Moment

Being with a great leader,Javier, was paramount to my wonderful experience. He was very thorough in explaining safety, the rules to be followed, and educating us of all the sights. I loved how we would have traditional meals together with our leaders as well. We were a great team, very cohesive.

Thoughts on Group Leader

I thought Javier was extremely devoted to ensuring our team had a great trip and experience which I certainly did. He was very attentive to the needs of those participants who needed help. Again, he was extremely caring and very knowledgeable. I found he was also quite passionate of his country!?? He always wanted to ensure we were always safe.
