Vietnam Family Adventure
Our guide, Quang was so knowledgeable and passionate about Vietnam. The effort he put in made the trip seamless!
Dheeraj Hinduja - Kudos to this place
The Prosecco Hills are surprisingly unknown and undiscovered place by people. The mass tourism had never reached at that place. If person want to go on hilly area, everyone has to visit this place once a life. I and my couson brother dheeraj hinduja had visited at this place.
Most Inspirational Moment
A place that had not seen by mass tourism. As name suggest, it is hidden from mass. A tracking place for world best trackers.
Thoughts on Group Leader
As you wish.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Who person likes the silent and hilly place. Tracking and group vocation lover can join each other.
Kenya Safari Adventure
Very well organised from start to finish, staff amazing! It was my first trip with Exodus and it actually exceeded my expectations.
Most Inspirational Moment
Absolutely everything! But Grephus our driver absolutely made the trip!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Grephus was super patient and explained why we needed to hold back and take time to see the animals behaving as they naturally would. He was very knowledgeable and apart from the animals would give information on the bird life too.
Bosnia and Beyond
good response from staff when enquiring about the holiday and arranging things without fuss. interesting locations and itinerary on the tour
Most Inspirational Moment
The old bridge at Mostar had always been a bucket list objective from pre-Balkans conflict and was a deal breaker from the outset. Our guides were all very knowledgeable and in good humour helping an understanding of a complex history. The mountains of Montenegro are impressive, Sarajevo was a pleasure, again a part of the bucket list, but every location was enjoyable.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Fatima was such a thoughtful and integrated part of the group, very patient, good fun, energetic and informative. always coming up with suggestions to suit individuals and everyone loved her. A genuine, lovely person.
Spectacular Scenery!
Visiting the Azores was honestly unforgettable. The scenery was next-level — black volcanic ash, vibrant green forests, and bright hydrangeas everywhere in July. We saw so many whales and dolphins, all really close to shore because the sea gets so deep so quickly – it’s one of the best places in the world for year-round sightings. And hopping between the islands (they’re only about an hour apart by ferry!) felt like discovering hidden pockets of history — each one had its own personality. We even saw a pod of whales during one of the crossings!
Most Inspirational Moment
My favourite walk was on São Jorge. We started early, high up in the clouds, but luck was on our side — the skies cleared and we spent the rest of the hike descending under brilliant blue skies. Surrounded by blooming hydrangeas and vibrant greenery, the whole experience felt incredibly special, like stepping into a living painting.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Jorge Valerio was an amazing leader ! He was very inclusive and made the effort to circulate around the group throughout the trip which made everyone feel welcome and included. He listened to the groups needs regarding dietary requirements and tailor restaurant options so that we could all eat together.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Pack for all seasons in a day, we would have sunshine, then rain, then sunshine then wind. It's quite an unpredictable weather system, however it never drops below 15 degrees year round so is quite good for someone who hates the cold!
Wow!
Grade 5 – This was an epic adventure in every way, the hikes, the scenery, the hotel, the food, it was all brilliant. If you fancy a challenge and you like the look of the Dolomites, what are you waiting for? Go for it, you won’t be disappointed.
Most Inspirational Moment
Ah, there were so many but I guess when we summited the Durrenstein 2,839m under clear blue skies comes close to the top, as does the night we had the hotel's winery to ourselves for the Tyrolean dinning experience, and a note on the food it's definitely a case of quality over quantity but we loved it, it always tasted great and it delivered for powering us up those hills.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our tour guide Mark Brown was great, always enthusiastic, full of energy, super knowledgable and unflappable, just what you want from a guide.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Make sure you're fit before you go, take poles because they really help on the climbs and the downhill sections, and make sure your kit is fully waterproof as the weather is often varied to say the least.
Walking The Amalfi Coast - Summer Edition
Well designed walk and easy to communicate with the booking staff.
Most Inspirational Moment
Path of the Gods!!!!!
Thoughts on Group Leader
We had the pleasure of exploring the path of the Gods and the Amalfi Coast with Veriano as our guide. Veriano was personable and incredibly knowledgeable about the local area. Being a local himself, he brought a unique and personal perspective to the tour that made it all the more special. The hike was breathtaking, and with Veriano leading the way we felt safe, informed and completely immersed in the beauty of the Amalfi Coast. He took the time to answer all our questions and pointed out h
Discover the Baltics

Namibian Family Adventurer
Excellent itinerary, perfect group size, nicely balanced mix of accommodation, well organized locally, fantastic guide, fantastic holiday destination.
Most Inspirational Moment
All the obvious tourist highlights TBH. From the kids' perspective, the swimming pools at each stay over! Very refreshing after several hours in a bumpy, dusty bus.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Erastus was a highlight of the trip - everyone loved him. Available, accessible, forever patient - he judged very well when to be involved and when to leave us to our own devices. Not sure if I will get an option later so I must also mention his assistant / the cook. Ruben was a real favourite of the kids despite his more limited English - and we were treated to exactly the right amount of food and choice. It was clear that these two have decades of experience in their roles. Things were so organized that we did not notice it - things just happened to plan. No mean feat in a country like Namibia.
Fantastic week in Romania
A lovely week’s cycling thanks to the ever positive group leader, Cristina and the practical, “nothing is too much trouble” support from Radu in his green van in a beautiful, rural, unspoilt part of Romania.
Most Inspirational Moment
The whole area of Transylvania is inspirational and there were many individual stories that were shared with us of people striving to keep traditions going. It was also brilliant to be part of a great group of fellow cyclists who provided a huge amount of inspiration and support.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Cristina was very positive throughout the week and along with Radu provided lots of information about the culture and the history of the areas we visited.
Advice for Potential Travellers
A few things: Take what you need for the 1st day's cycle in your hand luggage on the plane, if you can. My luggage was delayed as left by the airline at Warsaw from the connecting flight. Food is good and largely what the locals eat, so don't expect "posh food". Lots of variety though, not just pork and beef - we had chicken a few times, beef, pork and trout. As the notes say - get Romanian Lei at the airport - either with your cash (just before arrivals) or from an ATM with a debit card. As most meals are provided in the villages, you wont need much though except for extras (e.g. beer, wine) There are hills on this trip but most are the "long and steady gradient" type so most cyclists will be able to manage them. There are one or two steep hills but don't worry about getting off and pushing your bike if hills are not your thing! The bikes are ok, but seem a bit old so don't expect the quality of the bike you have at home. I found the gear changes were not as responsive as I am used to on my own bike.
