Costa rica

The guide was amazing, the food and hotel were really good. I was expecting to hike in the forest and mountains but it was more of a bird watching tour. So it was zero walking and lots and lots of bird watching standing still for long periods of time. It was not what i was looking for.

Most Inspirational Moment

I love the boat rides in tortuguero and the zipline in monte verde

Thoughts on Group Leader

Really good, nice and a real encyclopedia

Advice for Potential Travellers

Don't do this tour if you want to hike. But if you like birds this is for you

Reply from Exodus

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Benoit. We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the guidance of your trip leader, the quality of the food and accommodation, and highlights such as the boat rides in Tortuguero and the zipline in Monteverde. We’re genuinely sorry to hear that the trip did not fully meet your expectations regarding hiking. This journey is graded as Activity Level 1 (Easy) and is designed with a focus on wildlife viewing, including birdwatching, which often involves longer periods spent observing while stationary. Included and optional walks are generally short, suitable for most fitness levels, and occasionally involve rough paths or gentle trails. Some departures are specifically led for keen birders, which may increase the time spent on wildlife observation rather than extended trekking. While we regret that this trip may not have been ideally suited to your preferences, we do offer a variety of other trips that may better match your desired level of activity and adventure. We truly value your feedback and will continue to ensure that trip information clearly communicates the balance of walking and wildlife viewing, helping future travellers make the best possible choice. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope you were still able to enjoy the incredible wildlife and landscapes of Costa Rica.

Everest Base Camp Trek

The trip was well organised and communication was great. The expertise and the experience of the Leader and the crew on the trek was absolutely fantastic and that made all the difference to me.

Most Inspirational Moment

The two days with severe snow conditions - while this prevented us from really reaching Base camp and the Kala Patthar experience, it added to the adventure and the uncertainty of nature and the landscape. Experiencing how the situation was managed so well by Dorjee and the crew was truly special.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Dorjee was a true leader in every sense. He was always in control without being over bearing. His knowledge, love and pride for what he does, calm and collected demeanour along with his empathy made me feel very comfortable at all times. He was also full of energy and fun in the right way at the right time. A very impressive young man who fulfils the role with aplomb and a great asset to Exodus.

An Italian E-Bike Experience to Remember!

This e-bike trip with Exodus was absolutely incredible. Riding from the Adriatic to the Tyrrhenian coast offered stunning views, charming villages, and amazing local food. The e-bikes made the hills manageable and fun, and our guide was fantastic—knowledgeable, friendly, and super organized. Everything from accommodations to luggage transfers ran smoothly. A perfect blend of adventure, culture, and comfort. Highly recommend!

Highlights of Morocco

Moroccan highlights was my 3rd holiday with exodus and they have all been brilliant.

Most Inspirational Moment

Staying in the high Atlas Mountains with amazing view from the terrace, and a few hours trek which I wanted to go for longer! Sitting in the sand dunes watching the sun rise so beautiful and peaceful. Swimming in the Atlantic and an amazing sunset with camels and horses racing along the sand. And our guide Jamal.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Through Jamal I really got to know and understand the history of Morocco, the people and the culture. He worked so hard for us and always with a smile and a great sense of humour.

100 Elephants and Misty Tea Hills: A Magical Sri Lanka Trip

My trip to Sri Lanka was truly magical. Not only did we see over 100 elephants while on safari, but we also spent three hours gazing out of a train window at the misty tea hills of Nuwara Eliya. This trip was the perfect mix of sightseeing and activities – we travelled by boat, tuk-tuk, train, 4×4, and even on foot during a hike up Sigiriya! I travelled in September, so we had quite a bit of rain in Kandy, but it only added to the lush, tropical scenery, which was absolutely beautiful. Sri Lanka should be experienced by everyone!

Most Inspirational Moment

Witnessing so many elephants gather around a watering hole with their babies whilst in Kaudulla National Park - just magical!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mahen was charming, hilarious, and absolutely in love with his home. His knowledge of Sri Lanka was incredible, and there wasn’t a quiet moment on the trip when he wasn’t sharing a fascinating fact, piece of history, or story. Mahen adjusted the itinerary to suit our group’s needs and made sure we visited busier spots, such as Lion’s Rock and Kaudulla National Park, during quieter hours - we often felt like we had the attractions all to ourselves. Mahen’s co-pilot was equally wonderful and kind. He always greeted us with flowers when we boarded the coach, handed us umbrellas when it rained, and treated our luggage with such care. Thank you, Mahen and your co-pilot, for taking our trip above and beyond!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take clothing for all types of weather. I visited in September, and Nuwara Eliya was very chilly, Kandy was very wet, and Colombo and Wattala were super hot! Be sure to bring plenty of suncream, cover-ups for temples, and a rain jacket.
