Costa Rica's Coastal Secrets

The holiday was amazing and very well run by Johnny. Johnny has extensive knowledge of the animals, birds, geography and history. It showed Costa Rica at it best.

Most Inspirational Moment

Seeing the sloths and humming birds.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Johnny was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and very good in a crisis when one of our party was ill. His time keeping was excellent and he always made the outing interesting and full of sightings of wildlife. He added details about the history and geography of the different areas.

Finnish Wilderness Week

Very well organised activities, good information, perfect facilities.

Most Inspirational Moment

I loved learning the new skills: snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. I was able to use them by myself in the second half of the week which was exhilarating. I absolutely loved dog sledding.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Tuomas is the perfect leader. He is calm and personable, knowledgeable and interesting without being imposing. Always helpful and always available to assist.

Colours of Rajasthan

A great way to see a number of sites and cities in a relatively short period of time. Excellent trip , managed efficiently and professionally from start to finish.

 

Most Inspirational Moment

Taj Mahal. Tiger sighting etc.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Endlessly enthusiastic and professional. A credit to Exodus and India

8 day guided - guide Danu

This was a well planned excellent tour using a very comfortable, clean small bus. The hotels used were varied but all satisfactory, service, facilities and rooms were of a good standard.
The driver was competent and both he his assistant were courteous andhelpful. Inevitability there was quite a lot of travel, but there were sufficient stops and activities. The exception being the final day when it felf as though we spent most of the day in
We saw may sites and experienced a number of activities, yet rarely felt rushed.

Most Inspirational Moment

Difficult ! Perhaps being so close to an elephant, perhaps the optional cookery class, but maybe the warmth and happiness of the population.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Danu was brilliant. We were totally ‘looked after’ as a group and personally from help finding ATMs, to checking we had sunhats, to recommending restuarants…. infact nothing was too much trouble. He was faultless. We were fortunate to be a small but very cohesive group who all got on well, initially this was due to Danu involving everyone at meals, having tables reserved for breakfasts etc. i cannot recommend him more.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Travel light, take every opportunity offered. Take the chance to chat and do any activities that use the locals. If the weather is overcast and warm use mosi repellent on the rafting. The additional cookery class was a real highlight and the food was superb. This tour only had one ‘selling’ event…. to a gem factory (the tea factory was very pleasant and informative with no ‘hard sell’)

Fantastic cycling trip

Amazing trip with a fabulous leader, Ruwan, great support team and group of other cyclists. The team ensured everything always ran smoothly with lots of smiles.

Most Inspirational Moment

Getting up the big climb! Ruwan makes sure you are eased gently into the cycling. The stops are well positions with lots of wonderful snacks and fresh fruit. Cycling through the tea plantations is really scenic and takes your mind off the climb!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Ruwan was a fantastic leader. Great organisational skills. He gave detailed information about the stages both verbally and gradient profiles on the WhatsApp group chat. He was a fountain of knowledge about Sri Lanka with a real passion for its history. He organised lots of interesting non cycling activities as well, like a meal and cookery demonstration at a family home. Ruwan organised transport for us on our day off in Kandy, recommending places to go. Ruwan is also excellent at spotting wildlife, especially birdlife as we cycled along.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Bring a flannel to wet and go under your helmet to help with the heat. Although Ruwan organised purchases of these for those of us that didn’t have one. Half and half pedals were great for cycling in traffic and then being clipped in for the big climb! Do some endurance training if you don’t cycle regularly, however the gradient on the big climb is steady not horrendous so don’t worry about that! If possible arrive a day early, stay in Negombo (closer to the airport than Colombo) I recommend the Belmont Boutique Hotel with free airport shuttle, lovely small hotel with great food and close to beach. A lot of our group including us stayed on longer. Our home stays were amazing.

Wonderful experience

I joined the trip in Colombo , meeting a friendly group of like minded travellers . The tour was well planned , encompassing many highlights of the ‘ cultural triangle ‘ . The visit to the tea plantation was interesting and informative , however the stay at Nuwara Elia was less so , since the town did not have much to offer in terms of interesting sights

Most Inspirational Moment

There were several inspiring moments ; the caves at Dambulla were awe inspiring as was the visit to the ‘ Temple of the tooth in Kandy . Climbing ‘Lion rock ‘ in the early morning and experiencing the spectacular views . Encountering 25 elephants whilst on safari in the National park was a privilege

Thoughts on Group Leader

Danu was friendly , well organised and had an excellent knowledge of the history of Sri Lanka . It was a pleasure to have him as our leader .

Advice for Potential Travellers

The tour is quite ‘fast paced ‘ ; be prepared for relatively early starts . The weather can sometimes be cloudy with some rain so be prepared with suitable clothing

Walking in North Cyprus

Thoughts on Group Leader

Outstanding. Ajay was committed 100% to making our trip as enjoyable and interesting as possible. He went over and above to ensure this and when any guests wanted to a particular extra thing he tried to facilitate it eg one lady wanted to consult an astrologer. He was amazing at helping us with ideas for our three extra days in Delhi.

Highlights of Northern Thailand

From start to finish every detail had been thought through & delivered. This was another highly enjoyable tour packed full of interesting places & activities.
