A very special week

This was my first Exodus trip and I was already excitedly researching my next trip a couple of days in. As someone with a busy job I found having everything smoothly organised very relaxing and it meant lots of care and expertise went in to ensuring each day was delightful and our time was really maximised to explore the area and enjoy ourselves. Our group truly became like a little family for a week; we had a lot of fun and I felt very supported by the kindness and warmth of everyone. The walks were spectacular and the location of the hotel is perfect for facilitating varied walks and activities. The food was a real highlight; fresh and authentic and different each night.

Most Inspirational Moment

During the Path of the Gods, which was truly stunning, I dropped my phone down a steep cliff. The group was very supportive and tried to help me find it but it had clearly dropped out of reach. Our wonderful group leader Veriano took lots of pictures of the remote site where it was dropped and then organised for his friends from mountain rescue to come and recover it! Hours later they abseiled down the side of the huge cliff edge and found it 20 metres down, unharmed! They then organised a relay of people to return it to me; an incredible level of service, generosity and care, and an unforgettable story!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our guide Veriano was exceptional - I thought a group tour might feel a bit like school but he was very funny and relaxed while also skilfully and subtly ensuring everyone was looked after and supported.

Advice for Potential Travellers

I have always wanted to go to Amalfi coast and I honestly can’t think of a better way of experiencing it. You stay in a quiet mountain village which feels really authentic and charming and seriously good value, away from all the busy tourist traps. Yet you get to really see and experience the beauty of the coastline and the colourful mountainside towns by foot and by boat.

Walking The Amalfi Coast

Excellent. As described in trip notes. Varied interesting itinerary. Great guide. Very good food. Comfortable well located hotel.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visiting Herculaneum, hiking the Path of the Gods, the meals and cooking demonstrations at the hotel the camaraderie with the group and the rapport with our expert guide Roberta.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Roberta made the holiday for us. In my experience of Exodus holidays she has been the best Exodus guide we have had the pleasure to meet. She was completely focused on the group and the week. Although from another region she was very knowledgeable and clearly known and liked by local people. She answered all our questions about the flora and fauna and local sights. Anything she didn’t know she researched quickly for us.

Walking The Amalfi Coast

Hotel duo Torre staff were wonderful and the food was excellent exceeding my expectations. Our guide Sevario was excellent, providing interesting historical and cultural information. He was contentious of our hiking abilities and ensured that everyone enjoyed the pace.

Most Inspirational Moment

All aspects of the trip were great

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sevario was an excellent leader. He provided detailed information on what we would do each day and the level of difficulty for each hike. He provided excellent information on what to do with our day off. He was enthusiastic and informative.

Walking The Amalfi Coast

The whole trip was excellent. I can’t praise our guide highly enough – he looked after us with such care and we all felt so well hosted throughout – with the food, the knowledge, the pace of the walking etc

Most Inspirational Moment

The host, the group, the hotel (including the food, which was outstanding and as a vegetarian I felt very well catered for)

Thoughts on Group Leader

Severio was extremely knowledgeable, kind and sociable. From the first moment we all felt welcome and like he wanted to give us the best possible experience. He was very generous is sharing his knowledge and facilitating us all to form a bond which made the trip really special. He also kept us on schedule while still keeping things relaxed.

Walking The Amalfi Coast

We found dealing with Exodus very satisfactory from first phone call to final departure from hotel at the end of the holiday. Price was reasonable and included reasonable quality accommodation offering comfortable rooms and amenities and good restaurant. Special mention for our guide Veriano who took great care of us throughout the trip.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visiting Pompeii and Herculaneum; views of the Amalfi Coast from height; meeting other people in the group.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Veranio was a good group leader with a pleasant whimsical sense of humour. He was keen to show off his home area giving us interesting information about the history and geography of the area. He was also keen to ensure we were enjoying ourselves and put a lot of himself into the role of leader. He was obviously very keen to please us and needed reassurance that he had done so.

Amazing Amalfi

Walking the Amalfi Coast was my second trip with Exodus. What an amazing part of Italy. Lots of stairs on first few days. Thankfully we had good weather despite the time of year. Beautiful hikes and great scenery on most of our days.
Food was meant to be a highlight of the trip but we were told on arrival that the kitchen was closed in the hotel so we had to eat dinner at a local restaurant. The food was reasonable at the restaurant but very few vegetables or greens served.
However one evening we had a barbecue at the hotel that was very good. It was an additional cost though.
The company was great and lots of friends were made.
Our guide accompanied us on most dinners

Most Inspirational Moment

Pompei and Vesuvius!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our leader was very charming in his own way but did not re assure us well on what to expect or how to be prepared better. The climb to Vesuvius was extremely cold and we were not guided on what to bring to stay warm. I think a few us caught a cold from this. Also he would always stay with the front walkers on the hike rather then the slower more cautious ones who may have needed more support. Overall a good leader but not brilliant. More attention to detail needed.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Great location but be ready for steep hikes so be prepared. Strongly recommend this trip but make sure you read trip notes well

A Journey That Changed My Life

This trip was nothing short of transformative. I have not travelled much in my life, at least not trips like this one, but nothing could have prepared me for how deeply this experience would impact me. From the first morning waking up in Bomerano, sometimes literally inside the clouds, I felt a new kind of aliveness I had never felt before. Every direction I looked was breathtaking, and every day left me feeling inspired, connected and genuinely grateful. What started as a simple hiking holiday quickly became something life changing, and our group bonded in a way that lifted my spirit more than I ever expected. It truly felt like stepping into a dream I never wanted to end. Every hike, every day, offered another reason to fall in love with life again.

Grazie assai, Agerola. Dentro le tue nuvole ho ritrovato il respiro, e nei tuoi sentieri ho imparato a vivere il momento. Non sognarlo soltanto: vivilo.

Most Inspirational Moment

The walk that changed me was Monte Tre Calli. Although everyone talks about the Path of the Gods (and wow yes, it is absolutely beautiful, and Vesuvius the day before was unforgettable) Monte Tre Calli was something on an entirely different level. The woodsy trails, the open ridges, the view at the top, the silence, the wind, the sense of being held by nature for six straight hours. That mountain felt beyond words. It was transformative. It felt like being connected to everything around me and to something inside myself that I had not met before. I will carry that day with me for the rest of my life. These were the kinds of views and feelings that shift your perspective permanently.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Veriano was exceptional. He meshed so naturally with every personality in our group and handled the entire week with calm strength and humour, even after a challenging start with a person early in the trip. His deadpan comments were perfectly timed and became a highlight for many of us. When I slipped and landed on my butt, I said I was fine, and he responded with a straight face, “If you wanted to sit down, you could have just told me.” It broke any embarrassment and kept the momentum of the day going. That moment sums up his energy: supportive, present, knowledgeable and patient. It honestly felt like travelling with a close friend who also effortlessly guided us through every trail without it ever seeming to affect him. His passion for the region and the care he had for our group made the trip unforgettable.

Advice for Potential Travellers

This trip is a real Level 3 and preparation is important. It is beautiful and rewarding, but physically demanding if your body isn’t used to this type of terrain. Train your legs for descending stairs, not just climbing them. I prepped using the stair master every day, but I didn’t realize how much of the trip would challenge the muscles you use going down. Strengthening those beforehand makes a world of difference. Bring poles, drink water and most importantly, stop and take in the views. It is not just optional; it is essential, for your body, your mind and your soul. There is nothing like these landscapes and it is worth slowing down to truly absorb them. Trust your guide, trust your gut and embrace every moment. If you are lucky enough to have Veriano as your tour leader, you are in very good hands.

Walking The Amalfi Coast

Great holiday. Good programme with a nice pace. The hotel is very nice with good food. Our Exodus guide was excellent

Most Inspirational Moment

Vesuvius and Pompeii were excellent despite the bad weather. The local guides were very helpful. We also enjoyed The Path of the Gods walk

Thoughts on Group Leader

Niko was very good and made the trip very pleasing

Wonderful View, Great Company

We are an Australian couple who are first time Exodus clients. We had a wonderful week hiking the stunning Amalfi Coast in September with a great group of people.

Most Inspirational Moment

Hiking the Path of the Gods and coming to our first stunning view.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Roberta was amazing. She led us so well, kept and us safe, participated at dinner, kept us very well informed prior and during our hikes and assisted with any additional needs from our group including working out a way for someone to participate with an injury. Roberta also with assisted with transport arrangements for forward journeys which would probably be above and beyond her duties.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Ensure you are fully aware that the hikes can be challenging. There are lots of steps and inclines and declines but certainly achievable if you are relatively fit and don't have any ongoing physical problems e.g. sore knees. The hotel is very clean and the meals simple but more than adequate in quantity. There are options in town for anyone who wants a change on a free night. Agerola is a lovely, quiet town which was a delight after the crowds in Amalfi and Positano. If you are arriving by train into Naples just make sure you receive clear instructions on where to meet your driver. Unfortunately, we didn't have very good instructions and it took a long time to find him. We just thought the "exit" meant "outside" the station when it actually meant as we exited the platforms. Lucky our driver did speak English.

Walking the Amalfi Coast

This was my first Exodus trip and it was very disappointing. For the pros, the hikes were amazing and the hotel was cozy and comfortable. However, for our group of 16, six of us were placed with a private group of 10 friends who were celebrating a birthday and we were treated as tag alongs. One of the six joined another group and the remaining five were basically ostracized from the group. From the first night where our guide did not meet with us, we felt left out. We were seated separately for meals, given very little instructions, had separate what’s app group set up, etc, while we watched the cohesion of the other groups and how well their group leaders led them. Once or twice, another group leader would come by to give us information after noticing that we were left out. It left a very bitter taste and moved a few of us to tears by the end of the trip.

Most Inspirational Moment

The climb to the summit of Vesuvius

Thoughts on Group Leader

Not communicative enough and very sparse with information.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Make great connections.

Reply from Exodus

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, although we’re truly sorry to hear that your first Exodus experience didn’t meet your expectations. While we’re pleased you enjoyed the hikes and the comfort of the Hotel Due Torri, we regret that the group dynamics left you feeling excluded.
We’ve spoken with the leader, who clarified that efforts were made to share key information and ensure all group members were informed and included, despite the challenges. That said, we understand that your experience didn’t reflect the welcoming and cohesive environment we strive to create on all our adventures.
Your feedback is important to us, and we’re reviewing how we manage group dynamics to ensure all guests feel equally supported and connected. We hope you’ll consider giving us another opportunity to deliver the kind of memorable and inclusive adventure we’re known for.
