Advice for Potential Travellers
Be prepared for various temperatures and degrees of humidity. Transfers between areas took longer than I expected although the bus was comfortable and there were plenty of stops.
This train tour of many contrasting areas of Japan gives an excellent experience introduction to a beautiful exciting country. An excellent variety of accommodation close to transport hubs made exploring very easy.
Most Inspirational Moment
There was no single moment but it was all about the experience. The country is very different from the west but safe and friendly so easy to comfortably explore.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Quinlan was the perfect guide. Infinitely helpful and patient. Knowledgeable and energetic. Well organised and great company.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Don’t come to Japan cold. Do a little research on cultural differences, food and the language. It’ll make life much easier. Smart phones make navigating the cities easier (Japanese sims from Amazon?) and travel cards on iPhones make life easy too. You need a little cash but not loads; Most places use cards but there are a few exceptions that should be prepared for. Public transport to and from airports are easy but do your homework in advance.
Excellent walking over varied ground and in different environments, great accommodation and food and lovely hosts

Brilliant - shared extensive knowledge of flora and fauna worked really hard to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Set a sensible pace for the group.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Do pack footwear suitable for some rough tracks and terrain
I have enjoyed every Exodus trip I have done and this was no exception. It was a busy trip with several long travelling days in a very comfortable coach, but the journey was always broken up with numerous stops and the scenery was amazing.
Most Inspirational Moment
Machu Picchu was iconic but the highlight was watching the condors in the Colca Canyon. Awe inspiring!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Renzo was an excellent group leader, personable, professional and knowledgeable. He was always available, took us to some excellent restaurants and had a lovely sense of humour. Very much like every Exodus leader I have travelled with and there have been numerous.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Don’t be put off by the long days, this is a brilliant way to see the amazing sights in Peru.
Everything worked as we expected it to (even the weather wasn’t too bad). Transfers and transportation were smooth and comfortable. The base hotel had all the amenities, had good food and was authentic Italian hospitality.

Severio was quite knowledgeable, well-organized and easy to talk to. He kept us together without making us feel like school kid.
This adventure holiday exceeded all my expectations. Havving never travelled with Exodus before, I wasn’t sure
what to expect but organisation, tour leaders, accommodation – all were perfect. Thank you Exodus.

Amazing sums him up. Bobby (Ubaldo Bobby Quispe) was knowledgable, helpful, entertaining and brilliant!
He was so supportive of me when I struggled with ascents. Rosa (assistant guide) was also awesome!

Pushing myself to do the hardest walks. First walking holiday since major surgery in 2021. Good to get back into it
Thoughts on Group Leader
Very knowledgeable and enthusiastic about his country
Advice for Potential Travellers
Pace yourself for the very large meals, that seem never ending
It is difficult to sum up what was so wonderful about this holiday. We spent a week experiencing the history and people of this lovely country under the enthusiastic expert and entertaining guidance of our guide Muayad. The itinerary was packed with so much, including the stunning archaeological sites in Amman, Jerash and Petra and stayed in the camp in Wadi Rum. We also met local families who cooked national dishes for us and it was a delight to talk with them in their own homes. Every day brought new adventures and delights.
Most Inspirational Moment
Almost impossible to say, each day brought a new favourite moment.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Muayad was outstanding. He was friendly, knowledgeable, entertaining and his love for his country and it's people shone through everything he said and did.
