Pretty comprehensive tour of what Morocco has to offer

Excellent itinerary to see the best of Morocco in 2 weeks. Inevitably that means some longer days in the bus but always many stops at points of interest to keep your enthusiasm alive.
From walking in the High Atlas Mountains to a camel ride on the edge of the Sahara to bustling Marrakesh and Fez and surprisingly clean and lush Rabat, this trip has it all.
The ‘in comfort’ part of the tour title needs clarification- all have comfy beds with clean sheets but some accommodations struggle to provide hot water or even a decent shower curtain. Having said that, hotel/riad staff were all very pleasant and helpful as are the Moroccan people generally

Most Inspirational Moment

The hammam visit was particularly memorable and is not to be missed! A sudden flash flood blocked our road to our hotel in the high Atlas Mountains with large boulders and debris but all car drivers and bus passengers helped clear what we could before the heavy machinery arrived to finish the job. No panic and everyone got on with it and the road was cleared in 30 mins- unimaginable in the UK!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Hamid was an absolute legend. We have been on many exodus trips and he was without doubt, the best guide we have ever had. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he could anticipate our needs without having to ask. He even arranged with hotels/riads in advance to avoid any delay for us on arrival. He is a real credit to Exodus

Advice for Potential Travellers

Just book the trip - you won’t regret it but don’t expect 4/5 star accommodation

Walking, sightseeing and swimming in North Cyprus

Fun week with a diverse group of like-minded people. Good balance between walking, sightseeing and relaxation. Good quality hotel with swimming pools and pleasant bar area.

Most Inspirational Moment

A few: views from hilltop castles, Roman ruins at Famagusta with excellent tour by our guide, swimming in the sea and/or pool after a day’s walking, fun with the group

Thoughts on Group Leader

Good, experienced and knowledgeable leader.

Advice for Potential Travellers

A bit more challenging than expected due to September heat. Could maybe go a little later in the season but while the hotel pools are still open. Trip notes are a bit out of date as regards costs of optional excursions and meals out.

A pleasant and informative experience

This was an enjoyable trip. Nothing spectacular, but consistently pleasurable and interesting. Learning about the Bosnia’s past and current conditions from our guide, Boris, who lived through the Bosnian War, was fascinating. The landscapes of Bosnia were also appealing, especially that of Sutjeska National Park. Further, the lodgings were more than comfortable, with the exception of that in Sutjeska, which was, for lack of other options, a Soviet-era experience. The food was excellent, too. Lost no weight on this trip. The only serious hiking on the schedule was the climb of Maglic. Unfortunately, we were not able to do that because of heavy rain and lightning. Thus, I would rate the experience I had as moderate, rather than moderate-challenging. Finally, let me give a shoutout and thanks to the other clients on the trip, who greatly added to my enjoyment.

Most Inspirational Moment

I cannot think of a moment that I would call inspiring.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Boris, our group leader, was outstanding. He really made the trip. A Bosnian Serb and a journalist, he had extensive knowledge of the country's complex history which he related with clarity, candor and a nice sense of humor (in flawless English).

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you haven't been to Dubrovnik before, you might think about scheduling an extra day there before or after the planned itinerary. The city is well worth a full day's visit.

The Most Incredible Adventure Ever

Two weeks in Costa Rica getting to explore the country’s most beautiful and diverse sites was one of the most incredible adventures I have been on. The fact that all places are so unique and diverse from one another and getting to see incredible wildlife throughout the trip was fantastic.

Most Inspirational Moment

Getting to meet Aurora in the Copey Valley and learn about her family history of the farm and have an authentic interaction and share a meal with her.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Johnny Villalobos was unbelievable. His passion for conservation, social impact and this trip shows throughout every fibre of himself. He provided some incredible insight into the history, geography and sustainability of the country and just contributed to the overall brilliant trip itinerary!

Advice for Potential Travellers

This is a brilliant trip to go onto if you are a solo traveler or are traveling with a friend where you want to see the highlights of the country and have a love for wildlife of all shapes and sizes.

Breathtaking

An epic adventure full of jaw dropping moments & experiences: Desert to ancient cities, mountains, museums & a whole lot more. The scale, size & beauty of the architectural monuments alone is spectacular. An unforgettable(but tiring) trip..the people are very friendly, the food is plentiful & cheap compared to the UK & the artisanal crafts just exquisite. Be prepared for a tiring first 2 days especially, as jet lag will ‘get’ you & overall I think the trip should be re-classified as Moderate as their isn’t much down time at all & the middle 3 days (Home stay, overnight train, Yurt camp ) with a long minibus drive on extremely bumpy track is quite exhausting. Pack as light as you can (make space for taking some of the amazing textiles home)& comfortable travelling clothes. Take dollars & change them when you get there (not everywhere takes cards or dollars-Uzbek Som preferred). I do think that Exodus should review the itinerary if possible as the long road trip on very bumpy track was tough & we had a full size coach into the Homestay when 2 Mini buses would have been better as the coach really struggled to get through the narrow roads. Does the final section from Bukhara to Tashkent have to be by train??Travellers be prepared for long presentations by the Tour Leader when you arrive at a site (to be honest, these should be shortened as its very hard to take lots of info in when you’re recovering from jet leg). Hotels overall very good . An experience (or hundred) for a lifetime!!

Most Inspirational Moment

Too many to single out but the friendliness of the Uzbek people stood out for me, just as much as all the incredible UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Fantastic Scenery and Guide!

Marijo helped make this trip an unparalleled joy and success. The amazing scenery of the Adriatic Coasts coupled with his expert knowledge of local places crowd avoidance made this a fantastic trip.

Most Inspirational Moment

The swing at the top of the huge climb on Hvar Island, day one. The views were incredible and joy at finishing so rewarding!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Marijo was an unparalleled leader and big personality. He was well known and liked by folks at restaurants and lodging everywhere we traveled. He cared for every detail of our trip and anticipated every situation to maximize our experience. He gave us great history and prep tips as we went along.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Get an e-bike—it’s a lot of climbing. Ask for Marijo—none better for this trip!

Fabulous!!

Just returned from a fabulous week of walking the highlights of Mont Blanc. Great walks with our guide Adrian, wonderful food provided by Sebastian & Carolina. Stayed in Chalet Chalupa in Les Houches which was comfortable and the area was nice and quite away from Chamonix’s hustle and bustle. The walks were challenging for a level 3 however well worth it for the views. Lovely to come back from the walks mid afternoon to homemade cakes!

Most Inspirational Moment

Hard to choose as every day was slightly different

Thoughts on Group Leader

Adrian was great. He was kind, funny and considerate. He took into consideration the levels of fitness for the group he was leading . We had a group meeting every evening for Adrian to let us know about the walk the following day.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Chalet Chalupa had loads of walking poles for guests to use. Sturdy walking boots a must. Just book the holiday and Enjoy!

Awesome

What a week! The hikes were challenging at times but totally worth it as the views at the top were outstanding.
The chalet was comfortable with a variety of delicious home cooked meals by Sebastian and Carolina including cake and coffee on our return.
Chamonix-Mont-Blanc was a lovely experience as well, especially if you have a sweet tooth.
Our guide Adrian was outstanding and he kept the pace steady to suit all of our group.
His energy and enthusiasm was endless and he had us all laughing throughout the week.
Loved the whole experience.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Book in advance if you want to go up the cable car to Aiguille du Midi as the queues are long. Alternatively go in the pm when it’s quieter.
