This was an amazing trip and my personal opinion much better than just going to the Rock. It is well paced and you arrive in to base camp at lunch time. Walking in through all the different camps was a real highlight. You then get time to spend walking on the Khumbu Glacier, a free day the next day to catch your breath before the descent and walk back to Lukla.
I would highly recommend Exodus over other companies as you will notice the small differences. Better tea houses, etc etc….
A great trip lead by a great leader and very experiences guide and sherpas.
Reaching base camp and camping on the rocks with climbers that are going to try to summit Everest.
Our leader made this trip, Valerie Parkinson is a legend and now I know why. She is very well informed, gave us lots of advise and kept us all healthy.
Definitely use a Steripen you won't be disappointed.
Although this is a relatively new trip, its extremely well organised and the tour leader and support team were incredibly friendly.
The cycle grading is accurate and although two days have some challenging hills included, the team were always there for anyone who did not want to continue. I had never really ridden a mountain bike before off road, but I felt like I had achieved something by the end of the two weeks. There are some roads with broken tarmac but the leader always lets you know when these sections are coming up. The rest of the roads were in really good condition.
Most of the hotels were a really good standard compared to other trips I have done and Indonesia is a beautiful country to cycle through.
Making it to the top of the Ijen cycle climb!
A brilliant adventure, and all in a weekend!
Obviously getting to the top, but the walk through villages, drinking tea in small hostels along the way, and the views.
Hesham was a great leader, tolerant and friendly who would go that extra mile for us.
Exodus as usual took care of everything, so much to pack in to a short space of time. I wondered if the tour of Marrakesh would prove too much but was really interesting, again so much to see but makes me want to go back!
Beautiful scenery, great walks, lovely people and good food. And of course bears.
Its hard to pick one! Seeing bears, the great views, the excellent food.
Julian is incredibly knowledgeable and full of enthusiasm for Bulgaria, the people and, most of all, the bears. His patience and good humour were unfailing and he gave exactly the right amount of information at the right time. The best leader on any Exodus trip that I've been on.
Do take a box for your lunch, do take some honey home and do get Maria's cheesecake recipe.
Turkey is a fascinating place historically, politically and culturally and definitely worth visiting.
We were blown away by the “Cotton Castles” and, of course, Cappadocia and the underground dwellings. The rock formations in both those areas are really unusual and beautiful. Unfortunately the group was not able to take the balloon ride at Cappadocia because of weather conditions.
We had just finished a tour of Sri Lanka with an outstanding guide so maybe it made us more dissatisfied with the guide we had on this trip. Her English was difficult to understand and her explanations more convoluted; she was often repetitive. It took up too much time at the site which could have been spent exploring. It might have been better given on the bus. A couple of times we wanted to stop for photographs, but told it was too dangerous or cost money when there was an obvious pull off or we would have been glad to pay. We did not really learn about other aspects of Turkish life, the politics, religion (except for Sufism) and culture.
We suggest that if you take this trip, you spend a few extra days in Istanbul before or after exploring Topkapi, Hagia Sofia, Blue Mosque, Dolmadahce Palace and various other museums, plus hanging out with the locals.
Wonderful trip. Varied, good hotels and the best trip leader. Francesca is kind, knowledgable, helpful.
Probably would have prefered 2 less cities to visit. This would have made the trip a better pace and give us a chance to savour each place.
Valley of temples.
Super as mentioned above.
None.
Well organised trip staying almost completely on the camino route, with good hotels, good guides, and a great group of people.
The start in Leon was impressive, but the lovely people and hospitality along the route was inspirational.
Both leaders very good
Get fit before hand. The trip is quite challenging.
The guides were fabulous , the group fun and the adventure grand.
The antiquities
Both guides, both Dimitris's were great. They were knowledgeable engaging and did a many things that made the trip more of an adventure and and an experience I will never forget
Our group chose to share dinners. This allow us to share our day's experience , get to know one another and eat more great food.
This was a great, moderately-paced trip. There’s lots to do, but plenty of free time to just sit in a café and watch the world go by… or if you like to keep moving, just grab an espresso and slip around the next corner to see what’s there… This was a pleasant balance of old Greek and Roman sites, free time in pretty towns and villages full of twisting alleys and stunning churches, a couple of light walks, and amazing Sicilian food.
We had several hours to explore the beautiful town of Ortiga. It was a microcosm of the trip as a whole... after admiring the ruined temple in the main square, scoring an aranchine (Sicilian fried rice dumpling) and a cake for lunch, I spent hours exploring every tiny alleyway, my camera ever-ready, stopping off for gelato whenever I needed fuelling up...
Francesca was bubbly and enthusiastic, and brought the group together.
This was my first trip to Vietnam and cycling the country was an amazing experience. Traveling with our local guide Son, a terrific leader who managed 16 cyclists of various abilities with good humor and patience. We stuck together through the maze of traffic, construction, honking in the midst of bustling cities and quiet and tranquil villages. The tour provided so many wonderful experiences and a very compelling story of Vietnamese culture and traditions.
I found the people to be most inspiring - they work so very hard and are accepting and welcoming.
Our group leader Son was top notch - very organized - he made sure everyone was safe on the ride as well as provided insights into the culture, the towns/cities that we visited. His team did everything to insure that our holiday would be memorable. Loved the fresh fruit and lemonade provided on our stops. A must to prevent dehydration. Our bus driver, van driver and mechanic....kudos to them for working 24/7 keeping up with all of our activities and making sure we were comfortable and our bikes in good shape.
For anyone who has not been to Asia, Vietnam is so very special. It is perhaps not the 5 star beauty of Bali or the majesty of Angkor Wat or have the many awesome temples of Thailand, but it's own special charm grows on you as you travel through the country. Ha Long Bay!!! Whale Island ...two special places for me. The cycling was harder than expected mostly due to the heat and humidity. Also the traffic and noise in the busy cities may make it more difficult for some cyclists. I would definitely recommend training as we had some time constraints to finish each day's ride so that we could make it to our final day's destination.
