Walking Northern Tuscany
This trip was what I signed up for. Wonderful farmhouse, great variety of food, extremely helpful and knowledgeable guides, breathtaking scenery, challenging walks and the company of like-minded people. I had a very enjoyable week.
Discover the Baltics
It was a very well balanced trip, a good mix of cities and countryside, group trips and free time.The guide was excellent.

Thoughts on Group Leader
Andrius was amazing. He worked very hard to make sure all the groups needs were met. He is very knowledgeable and his English is excellent. He has a very dry sense of humour. He shared some of his personal story which was a privilege to hear. He added in a few personal touches ( some songs, music and national drinks) which made the trip even more memorable.
Bosnia and Beyond
The trip was very well organised from start to finish, with an interesting and varied itinerary that allowed us to experience the highlights of Bosnia and Herzegovina. The local guide was excellent—knowledgeable, professional and approachable—and played a major role in making the trip enjoyable. Overall, the holiday delivered exactly what I expected from an Exodus tour.
Most Inspirational Moment
Swimming at Kravice Waterfalls was a real highlight of the trip and a wonderful way to experience the natural beauty of Bosnia and Herzegovina. I also particularly enjoyed Sarajevo, with its unique atmosphere, fascinating history and excellent food, followed by Mostar, which was equally charming and memorable. The knowledgeable local guide added greatly to the overall experience.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our tour leader was outstanding and one of the main reasons the trip was such a success. He was knowledgeable, professional and highly organised, with excellent English and a genuine passion for sharing his country with the group. What impressed me most were his exceptional people skills. He was able to adapt to different personalities, manage group dynamics with patience and good humour, and ensure everyone felt included and supported throughout the trip.
Walking The Amalfi Coast
My wife and I both enjoyed the trip. Good group, food exceptional in hotel, walks scenic and matched descriptions, group leader very knowledgeable of places and the walks.
Most Inspirational Moment
Walk of the Gods, though each walk was enjoyed. Ravello was certainly worth the visit and the Cimbrone Garden.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Theresa was always there for us. Each component of the trip went well - taxis/buses, timing of walks, her knowledge of the walks.
Highlights of Albania
A full-on but fascinating trip.
Most Inspirational Moment
Several, the group dinner on the first evening and the lunch with the family in Dhoksat, both delicious. The beauty of the countryside. The visit to the Medieval Arts Museum in Korce. Our guide here was one of the artists helping to restore the icons. A fascinating visit to the Cac Dollani house in Berat.
Thoughts on Group Leader
A lot has been said about Artur and Diu in other reviews and I totally agree, they are a great combination both excellent at what they do. Artur is great at telling us about his country and Diu is a very careful driver and great at taking and sharing photos. It was just a shame that our vehicle broke down and Diu had to leave us to try and get it repaired. A new vehicle and driver was found quickly and we continued on our journey.
Go for it.
A great break in the deep south of Bulgaria near the Greek border. Seeing the old cold war border fence between USSR and Greece and hearing about its history was one of many personal highlights. Such a variety of wildlife and flowers all there to be experienced.
Most Inspirational Moment
A tie between discovering a perfect brown bear paw print that was only hours old and hearing the choice of deserts each evening .
Thoughts on Group Leader
Julian was fantastic. Expert on Rodopi Mountain trails, its wildlife, flowers and history. Everything ran like clockwork. Doing linear walks allowed us explore so many quiet trails.
Advice for Potential Travellers
No need to bring your own snacks. Meals and picnic lunches provided by Hotel Yagodina were excellent. And if that is not enough there is a machine outside the hotel where you can purchase bars but you will need Euro coins.
Highlights of Albania
Brilliant guide. Brilliant organisation. Loved it all
Most Inspirational Moment
The mountains. The lunch in the country farm. Amazing.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Great knowledge of history of country. Also looked after group really well. Made sure everyone was safe all the time. Was easy to talk to and was very helpful re organising taxis when necessary. He organised excellent restaurants for ourevening meals.
Amazing Cycling in Puglia !
It’s been 1 year since the first week of June, 2025 when my wife and I did the 1-week cycling of the Puglia region beginning in the city/town of Matera (which is in the Basilicata region, right on the border of the Puglia region). We had such an amazing time exploring the back country roads and many small quaint towns the Puglia region offers.
So many memorable stops along the way including caffe, gelato, walks in town squares (piazza).
The group of 15 riders plus Emanuele (local tour guide) and Leonardo (driver/assistant) were all great people to spend a vacation with.
Most Inspirational Moment
Matera stands out to me for multiple reasons (not the least of which is the fact that I was born there!). We thoroughly enjoyed staying in a trullo in Albero Bello. To be able and take a swim in 2 of the beaches along the way was great! The meals were wonderful (but this was no surprise). Watching the making of mozzarella and then having it served fresh for lunch was also memorable. So many, many more memorable instances along the way made this truly one of the best vacations. I have a new-found appreciation for the Puglia region and all it has to offer… we will be back!!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Both Emanuele (local tour guide) and Leonardo (driver/assistant) were absolutely awesome! So easy to connect with and quickly establish a rapport and friendship with. Side note: personally enjoyed speaking to them in Italian (as well as dialetto Barese)!!
Advice for Potential Travellers
Book it !! Its totally worth it and I highly recommend it: 10/10.
Walk the Prosecco Hills & Hidden Venice
Our guide Mattia Mandelli was absolutely fantastic! So pleasant and he went out of his way to ensure everyone’s needs were met. He paid attention to every little detail to ensure we all had the best experience possible.This trip offered the right amount of walking/hiking paired with personal time to explore Venice and nearby towns like Treviso. And of course Mattia made sure we had the information we needed to explore based on our own or group interests. He is the best!!
Most Inspirational Moment
The Valdobiadenne winery hike and prosecco tasting. The winery made our visit very special.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Mattia was an excellent leader. I would chose him again for sure! He is the BEST!
Mont Blanc Hiking Highlights
The guide we had, Egle, was amazing. she knew everything about the mountain passes and trees/flowers/birds etc. she was a delightful person. A few in our group were struggling with some of the heights along the edge of the mountain and she adjusted our last hike so all could participate which was thoughtful of her. We also appreciated the well thought out and delicious meals and variety prepared by Dorota and Hammish was also amazing with his help in the kitchen and cleaning.
Most Inspirational Moment
seeing all the mountains and the terrain and learning about the various trees and plants and how they grow and the affects of the glaciers etc. it was breath taking and surreal.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Egle is amazing. she explained all about the mountains and what we were seeing during each hike. she told us about the trees and how the glacial snow affects them. and what the difference between types of trees/flowers/plants. she told us about all the diff animals. we heard some but did not run into any she encouraged us to relax on breaks and listen to the birds and nature and to detach from our busy lives. she also came out with us after the hikes and we had a blast together. she is an absolute gem also as previously mentioned there were a few in our group who did not like heights and hiking close to the edge of the mountains and she changed the route to accommodate them which was thoughtful so that all could participate yet those who liked the heights still got to enjoy them.
