GALAPAGOS WILDLIFE CRUISE

A fabulous trip that allows you to experience the varying scenery and wildlife of the different islands to their fullest.

Most Inspirational Moment

Snorkling with the turtles.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sylvia was first class and had a wealth of knowledge about the Islands which she was always keen to share.  She made sure to tell us about the history, geology and wildlife of each island and was extremely informative.We were also very well looked after in Quito; airport transfers were reliable and efficient and the guide in Quito (Stefan) provided us with maps and suggestions for places to visit during the free day. 

Advice for Potential Travellers

Make sure that you don't take any denominations larger than $20 notes as you will not be able to spend them in Ecuador.Pack light - there is virtually no storage space in the cabins.Photographers - you get very close to the wildlife and I nearly didn't take my 70-200mm lens on this trip as I suspected that I would not use it much.  However, I actually used this lens more than any other so I would strongly recommend taking a medium range zoom lens, and this lens is vital if you are interested in bird photography. There was snorkling offered at least once, and often twice every day.  The Cachalote has wetsuits, fins and masks that you can hire very cheaply.  However, if you are of small build and want a wetsuit that fits properly you should consider bringing your own.  Most of the time the water was warm enough not to wear a wetsuit but the sun is very strong and I would strongly advise wearing a wetsuit during all of the snorkeling sessions if you burn easily.

LAND OF THE TIGER

Everything was perfect. Being on your own you are always a bit apprehensive at the start but the leader and the nature of the trip soon allayed these fears.

Most Inspirational Moment

There were so many but I will identify three; first seeing such a variety of wildlife including the tigers, second the Exodus sponsored school at Bandhavgarh and third the Taj Mahal.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Probably the best leader I have experienced in my many years of travelling. He was always there when you wanted him without being "in your face", he was always cheerful, well organised and most importantly he was knowledgeable - the best.

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you are thinking of visiting India don't think any further book the Land of the Tiger with Exodus.

THE AMALFI COAST

The walking was varied with great views every day and the hotel owners were determined to put pounds on us with their delicious food.  My calf muscles were groaning after the steps to Amalfi but otherwise the walking was reasonably easy.

Most Inspirational Moment

The walking with views.  Pompeii and Herculaneum.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Friendly thoughtful person, well organised.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Walk up and down a lot of steps before you go.

THE AMALFI COAST

This was my first Exodus experience and if you’re worried about what to expect, don’t be. Busy lives mean that most of us just don’t have the time to plan every day of our holiday. Well, thank you Exodus for taking away that pressure. I didn’t have to think…I had time to enjoy, knowing that the planning was taken care of, in our case, by our guide Christine. And taken care of so well, thank you Christine!I felt like I was looked after, thoroughly enjoyed being part of a group and would recommend the scenery of Southern Italy. Thank you Exodus, be seeing you again! P.S. Our hotel was fab: from the food (& drink!) to the rooms and also the excellent staff.

ANTARCTIC EXPLORER

What can I say?! The most amazing trip, far exceeding the expectations that I had held for a lifetime! Each experience seemed to surpass the last , and I hold the memory in my head each day since returning home.

Most Inspirational Moment

Zodiac cruising on a sublime cloudless day, encircling aquamarine icebergs, quietly observing a leopard seal casually lounging on an icefloe. The intense colours, the stark white of the ice and snow contrasting with the deepest blue ocean. The sound of penguin chatter and raucous calls,  the soft patter of penguin feet while I sat very still on the beach, listening, absorbing and watching the astonishingly beautiful scene before me. Humpback whales breaching and the whoosh of the sea as they played out the spectacle. Hourglass dolphins accompanying the ship as we approached Cape Horn. Listening to the group leader, Shane, reading a short poem about the wandering albatross and lost sailors  as we approached land at Tierra del Fuego.. Sitting with like minded people, conversing about our adventure. The feel of the ship under my feet as I stood at the bow, looking, watching and looking...

Thoughts on Group Leader

Brilliant! Shane was professional, informative, kindly and always concerned for our safety, well being and enjoyment!! Cannot speak too highly of him. Inspirational.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Read up on Antarctica before you go, it will enhance your awareness of what to look for. Take more memory cards than you think you'll need. Sea sickness pills are provided and are effective( although we were very lucky - no Drake shake!). Take your time when on shore, stay still and the penguins will come to you. Take time to look, look and look... there is nowhere else on earth like this....you wont see anywhere like it and it deserves to be experienced fully. The ship is warm, you dont need outdoor gear inside! High factor suncream and moisturiser is necessary- the weather can be snowy, dry , windy, cold, sunny - protect your skin. Forget about your phone- no signal after the Beagle Channel. Its good to be able to email but dont get hung up on it- you can do that at home. And perhaps when taking photos- just put your camera aside sometimes and look around you...

CYCLING CUBA

I throughly enjoyed the trip, the company, the country, the history, the locals and the food and I am a VEGETARIAN!!! The local people went that extra mile to ensure that I did not have omelettes every meal. I would say htink very seriously about the time of year that you cycle as it did get very hot for me… also try and get a few weeks in the saddle before you go so as the cycling is not too ardous and you can enjoy the early starts from breakfast :-0)

Most Inspirational Moment

The fact that all cubans are cuban, the people pull together...

Thoughts on Group Leader

An absolute gem!!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Cycle before you go, don't pack too many items, take a lot of sun screen, take an attachment to fit on your bike to  carry items such as camera. Take protein bars if you are a veggie.

CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING: DOBBIACO

Great skiing, great guide, great group and loads of food!

Most Inspirational Moment

Skiing on the last day with the gang with fab snow and no fear of the downhill!

Thoughts on Group Leader

David was a great coach and leader. Very relaxed and chatty. Always giving you tips on your posture as he whizzed up and down the group. He got the group to bond, he adjusted his teaching for the less confident and the experienced, and had a knack for getting us to the bus stop 20 seconds before the bus arrived (did he like the bus company so much that he bought it?!) 

Advice for Potential Travellers

Do the exercises you get sent - much less pain in the first few days! Go for the fish options at the hotel - veggie options aren't the best.

EVEREST BASE CAMP

Wow! OMG! are just some of the expressions I found myself repeatingly saying. An absolute must, this trip combines, the magisty of the highest mt range in the world, with love & warmth of the local people & bloody hard work – at times! What you waiting for, book now!

Most Inspirational Moment

The most inspirational moments of my trip was the sunset on the peaks. Some evenings where just so blissful,I wanted to cry.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our GP was a young man with wisdom & life experiences be young his years. Playful, intuitive, professional, supportive ~ the list goes on.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take a little extra cash so that you can buy your GP & support staff meals from time to time.

CYCLING VIETNAM

All too soon, the two weeks had come to an end.  Yet whilst we were busy with the trip, time seemed to expand.  Full on, always busy, but what a wonderful way to see such an incredible country.

Most Inspirational Moment

Experiencing the crazy world of Vietnamese travel - the scooters, mopeds and motorcycles, mixed in with the buses and trucks!;  Seeing the beautiful scenery, the outlines of the hills of the central highlands on the skyline whilst cycling amongst the rice paddies; swimming in the warm Pacific ocean from a paradise sandy bay; tasting such fantastic and varied food; being made so welcome by all the people we met - especially the children and their calls of hello as we cycled past, "high-fiving" as we went!;  30km of downhill cycling, from hill top to river-side restaurant

Thoughts on Group Leader

Danh was simply the best!  This was our sixth Exodus adventure, and all of our leaders have been superb, but Danh is a cut above in a field of excellence.  His attentive dedication to his job and those in his care meant that we wanted for nothing, and with his wonderful support team of drivers and cycle mechanics backing him up, the whole trip went as smoothly as a well-oiled bike chain!  His passion for, and love of his country shone through, and his encylopeadic knowledge of Vietnamese history and culture combined with his fantastic sense of humour and fun, meant there was never a dull moment!

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you only ever cycle to the shops, prepare yourself for a shock!  Don't let this put you off, you should still do it, but you might want to put in some practice on some inclines (or undulating terrain, as we educated Danh to refer to it!).  What is difficult to prepare for is the heat - which for most of our trip was in the high 20s and more often than not into the 30s.  Cycling in the sauna should do it, but your sports centre might object! 

DISCOVER SRI LANKA

A good mix of cultural and wildlife experiences. Lots of Buddhas and plenty of birds – a few crocs and great elephant encounters.

Most Inspirational Moment

The Lion rock fortress at Sigiriya was quite amazing especially the rock paintings. You have to use your imagination to envisage the whole face of the rock covered in paintings and then marvel at the almost impossible problems that the painters must have overcome to complete their task.Riding on the neck of an elephant was magical - Hero's ears flapped against my legs and I could feel the power of his muscles moving as he carried us along beside a lake. He seemed to appreciate a good scratch behind his ears and really didn't mind me standing on his head to dismount! 

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sujan was well organised, had a fund of knowledge - both of the history and the wildlife and plants, was approachable and had a good sense of humour. He efficiently sorted out a problem with the initial coach, organising a couple of minibuses and then a replacement coach during a busy day without us missing out on any of the planned programme. He was sensitive to the various needs of the group and always managed to find us a 'good-looking loo' when it was needed.

Advice for Potential Travellers

A liking for reasonably hot curries would be an advantage. Rice and curry is the staple meal although more western fare was usually available. Try the red and white wine if you must but the local Lion beer is a far better alternative! The walking is easy but a good pair of walking shoes with a good grip is recommended, especially if the paths and rocks are slippery from rain I would imagine.
