May walking
Arrangements were efficient, the hotel was lovely, the reception and meal on arrival was most welcoming.
Walking was as brochure said and the town/suburbs was abundant with flowering plants.
Evening meals easily available at very reasonable prices.
The guide was full of interesting information about the historical context of the island.
As ever the greatest fun was meeting the excellent other holiday makers!
The hotel were very attentive to providing me with “gluten free” meals.
Excellent Trip
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.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Definitely use a Steripen you won't be disappointed.
The best cycling trip I've done!
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.
Most Inspirational Moment
Making it to the top of the Ijen cycle climb!
Brilliant weekend
A brilliant adventure, and all in a weekend!
Most Inspirational Moment
Obviously getting to the top, but the walk through villages, drinking tea in small hostels along the way, and the views.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Hesham was a great leader, tolerant and friendly who would go that extra mile for us.
Advice for Potential Travellers
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!
A really great week
Beautiful scenery, great walks, lovely people and good food. And of course bears.
Most Inspirational Moment
Its hard to pick one! Seeing bears, the great views, the excellent food.
Thoughts on Group Leader
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.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Do take a box for your lunch, do take some honey home and do get Maria's cheesecake recipe.
Turkey was fascinating but tour leader was not the best
Turkey is a fascinating place historically, politically and culturally and definitely worth visiting.
Most Inspirational Moment
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.
Thoughts on Group Leader
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.
Advice for Potential Travellers
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.
Classic Sicily
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.

Cycling the camino
Well organised trip staying almost completely on the camino route, with good hotels, good guides, and a great group of people.
Most Inspirational Moment
The start in Leon was impressive, but the lovely people and hospitality along the route was inspirational.

Both leaders very good
Advice for Potential Travellers
Get fit before hand. The trip is quite challenging.

The antiquities
Thoughts on Group Leader
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
Advice for Potential Travellers
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.
Great trip, fabulous gelato
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.
Most Inspirational Moment
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...
Thoughts on Group Leader
Francesca was bubbly and enthusiastic, and brought the group together.
