A fantastic week

This was a great holiday & I’d thoroughly recommend it. The walks were far more strenuous than I expected but the views were spectacular which made it all worthwhile.

Prague to Budapest ride

Great ride through the rolling hills of Czech of republic and on through to Austria, Slovakia and Hungary. Many interesting stops along the way. Glad I did some training before the ride as we had some windy days.

great gozo

A great holiday. Ta chenc is a lovely hotel. Single storey buildings with very spacious room and bathroom.
A fabulous choice of food at breakfast with plenty of choice for dinner.
Staff very friendly and helpful.
Gozo is laid back with a very good public transport system to get you to start walks.

Trip of a life time!

I had wanted to visit Jordan and Petra for a long time and I finally got around to booking, choosing exodus. We are an active couple and wanted a trip that would challenge us but we could also see the sites.

This trip had everything we wanted and it did not disappoint.

Delivered as advertised, enhanced by the weather and autumnal colours. Excellent.

A holiday that very much delivered as per the trip notes, with the varied hikes only being enhanced by the great weather and autumnal colours in the forests.
A well established trip with a very experienced group leader and a good bunch of fellow travellers.
For me, staying in one location is a plus, with only short minibus journeys required to reach the start point for each hike. And that one location was a lovely, relaxing one.
The hikes themselves were of the activity level expected and challenging enough for the group. The rewards were great – generally involving walking through colourful beech or chestnut forests before reaching ridges and peaks with stunning views. Few other hikers were seen throughout the week. The hikes on days 3 and 7 stood out for me.
All of the group visited Lucca on the “free day”, which was a good choice, with plenty to explore for a good few hours.
The trip also introduced me to the life of those living in the area, including exploring towns and villages. As would be expected, there are plenty of churches and other religious features.

Breathtaking trek to the Inca Capital of Machu Picchu

The Inca trail, organised by Exodus, was a thrill ride from beginning to end.
I was so impressed with the organisation of the trip. We were looked after so well that I didn’t have to think about how I was going to get around, or where my next meal would come from.
The two guides were a constant source of fascinating facts, and helped keep the group motivaated.
The group of Porters were superhuman. The camp site was stripped down as we left. They marched (And sometimes ran) past us during the trek. And always had the camp ready when we arrived. If this wasn’t impressive enough, the meals were already in the process of being prepared.
The food provided by the chef were delicious. Hadn’t expected to be eating such great food. Fish, meat and chicken were the evening meals. Also popcorn was provided as an after trek snack. So impressed
I would recommend this trek to anyone. And if this is how Exodus organise their trips, I will definitely use them again!!

Amazing, fantastic, loved it

Loved it, loved it, loved it! I had wanted to visit Bhutan after seeing a film about scientists looking for the Yeti decades ago. Didn’t see a yeti but found a country that is so special, with a landscape that is so special and with people that are so special.

After the dirty madness of landing in Kathmandu the feeling of peace on landing at Paro airport for the start of the Bhutan trip was very special. Bhutan is a clean, welcoming country at peace with itself.

The trek, although not demanding, was lovely and gives a snapshot of a wonderful countryside.
The visits to various dzongs and stupas was interesting and the final visit to a monastery where the monks where involved in some of their rituals for a village festival the next day was fascinating.

As a vegetarian and an animal lover this country was the nearest to perfect for me. Loved the food and the fact that although there were dogs everywhere (they are mostly cared for by the community or the monks) I never saw any in distress or starving (as I did in Kathmandu).

Huh?

This was a very well organized trip that my wife and I greatly enjoyed.

Varied walking in The Picosd'Europa

It was probably the most challenging trip that my wife have done together and despite being in our 70’s we felt equal to challenges with Alvarro’s encouraging approach.
The walking varied from forest trails to gradual ascents with some sce=rambling on the penultimate day.
The Cliff walk on the free day to Llanes was delightful and a contract with the mountains.
The Carres gorge was very special and we were fortunate to be there at a cool time of year and with few other walkers,
We have been on half a dozen or so trips with Exodus and this was up there with the very best

My perfect India trip,

From the madness of New Delhi to the beautiful unspoilt Sikkim area. This India trip does it all.
