"Welcome in Jordan"

Was the constant greeting and we were certainly made to feel so (and very safe)
“Hello. Look at that! ” from our enthusiastic, knowledgeable and extremely accomodating local guide
Petra was on most of our minds (made even more special by the fantastic ‘reveal’ by our guide – so very thoughtful) However our trip included so many other fantastic facets – Roman city of Jerash and peace and vastness of Wadi Rum

Most Inspirational Moment

The Jordan Valley I had no idea that it extended to Great Rift Valley Quite humbling

Thoughts on Group Leader

Zuhir was particularly great at knowing what our group would find more interesting

Advice for Potential Travellers

Definitely come! Exodus travellers are from a variety of backgrounds but have a shared interest in a more authentic way of group travel A Week In Jordan is a great introduction to an extremely unique country, it's people andcustoms

Great Patagonian Adventure

Fantastic scenery. Both the included walks were quite hard, but you can go at a slow pace, and the view at the top was worth it. Travelling to the end of the continent was a highlight too.

Most Inspirational Moment

The Perito Moreno glacier is just so impressive, especially the noise when a bit breaks off. Do the optional boat trip (wrap up!).

Thoughts on Group Leader

Xavier was an excellent group leader.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Not all the hotels have hairdryers, so if that is important to you, bring your own. Bring walking poles for the two walks. I enjoyed the Todos Glaciares boat trip from El Calafate, a restful way to see 2 more glaciers, and floating ice. In Ushuaia it's worth doing the longer boat trip to see the penguins, the catamaran actually "parks" on the beach (you dont get off ) - you can see the penguins fairly close up. Even though there were some long bus days - especially to get to Ushuaia, I didnt find them too arduous, and we had regular stops along the way. Just make sure you have a few good books to read, and I used a neck pillow too for the odd kip. Do bring wine/beer to the refuge, it will save you loads.

COSTA RICA

IN SPITE OF THE RAINY SEASON SAW A FANTASTIC RANGE OF WILDLIFE INCLUDING GREEN TURTLE HATCHLINGS MAKING THEIR BID FOR LIFE IN THE OCEAN

Most Inspirational Moment

SLOTHS JUST HANGING ABOUT AND THE QUETZAL IN THE EARLY MORNING

Thoughts on Group Leader

HE WAS QUITE CHARMING AND ANXIOUS TO DELIVER THE FULL PACKAGE

A week of discovery

There is nothing I can say about Jordan that others who have travelled to this country have not said before.
We were a large group, 20 in all, age ranging from 20`s to 60`s but unusually with a large group we all got on so well together.
We started our trip with a visit to Jerash, nothing could have prepared us for the shear volume that was there with even more yet to be uncovered, absolutely fantastic to stand there in the footprints of these ancient people who created these wonders.
Onto the Dead sea, I thought it was going to warmer than it was but those of us who went in had a quick float around, a pity we could not see the sites in Israel over the other side of the sea as it was quite misty.
Petra was next for us, the Treasury was revealed to by a trick the guide (Zuhair) played on us and what a site, although this is really only a fraction of what is there.We spent 2 days walking around, up and over in awe at the scale and colours, every corner revealing another site or view to take your breath away.
Ah camping in the desert hold that thought, how romantic, after a 4×4 ride in the desert we climbed aboard our camels for a ride again into the desert. on our return dinner was prepared but due to a strong wind we ate inside a really smokey large tent. Those of us who brought along a sleeping bag did ok but the the temperature dropped and it was cold, yes it really was.
To complete our trip we moved onto Aqaba which was different again, much like many sea ports in the middle east.
I found this trip so enlightening and awe inspiring to be the best of the many I have been on with exodus, thank you.

Most Inspirational Moment

This has to be the 2 days went spent in Petra.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Zuhair, what can I say about this man, He was amazing, funny, a story teller,always there for us as a group. A truly great reason to go on trips like this, Zuhair`s enthusiasm for his country and it`s people comes over so well

Advice for Potential Travellers

Travel to Jordan with an open mind and be prepared for a fantastic trip of discovery.

A great week of hiking

Great hiking in wonderful mountain scenery. The accommodation is in a quiet and peaceful location, and serves very good food.

Most Inspirational Moment

I didn't go for inspiration, I went to hike.

Thoughts on Group Leader

The leader went the extra mile to ensure that the holiday was as good as possible for the group. He was very highly organised and exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate about the area. Plus he makes great sandwiches.

Great way to see Central America!

This is a great trip to see 3 Central American countries. Each has different history and presents different experiences for tourists from jungle, wildlife, ocean and lake viewpoints, infrastructure marvels and lots of seafood!
Exodus does a great job and ensuring border crossing and logistics are organized to ensure it’s a holiday.

Most Inspirational Moment

Support for the entire team to make it up the hills with horns honking and flags waving! Ometepe Island was a great stop and the Panama Canal was especially enjoyable.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Roberto is an energetic guide and genuinely wants to share highlights of his country to all those on the tour. He is passionate about ensuring everyone has a great time. He is an excellent listener to all requests and delivers above and beyond. The great team ensured that all participants with all skill levels had adequate care and assistance throughout the trip. This meant that members of the team raced ahead with the keen bikers (thanks Paul, Roberto and Gerhart!), while ensuring that adequate stopping points provided the group to reconvene and enjoy fresh fruits (thanks Luis!).

Advice for Potential Travellers

Bring a few different biking outfits and the guides indicated laundromats where they could get washed at various destinations during the trip. Bring a great attitude for varied terrain: hills and flat stretches.

Petra & Wadi Rum by bike

They say variety is the spice of life and this trip has just about everything the ruins of Jerash second only to Pompeii, Petra a world heritage site, cycling through the desert on a deserted road probably saw 4 cars in 4 hours and snokerling on a coral reef (an extra). An activity based holiday split 50/50 between sightseeing and cycling so never a dull moment except when on the coach but the rest was welcome. I went end of November and it was COLD in Wadi Rum so be prepared

Most Inspirational Moment

When Tommy turtle swam under our glass bottom boat, so unexpected, other than that the trip was a series of highlights, something new everyday

Thoughts on Group Leader

Weal the group leader was a mine of information as well as a fixer sorting out problems and patching up those that fell off their bikes

Advice for Potential Travellers

Make sure you take some warm cloths and a windproof if going late in the year as although the sun shines all day it can get cold, also I am told November is the rainy season but we didn't see a drop

A busy and interesting trip

You’ll be on the go for much of the time, as this trip packs a lot into a week. It’s a great introduction to the country, which feels a million miles away from the troubles of its neighbours.

Most Inspirational Moment

It has to be Petra. It is so much more then The Treasury, which of course is fabulous by itself. However sleeping under the stars in the Wadi Rum and waking up to an amazing sunset was pretty fantastic too.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Wael is an extremely knowledgeable guy, and has a huge amount of information in his head that he is only too happy to impart. It's a busy schedule and he made sure we were all where we should be when needed!

Advice for Potential Travellers

It was warmer than I'd expected for November, but it's still worth having layers (maybe arm warmers) as one or two mornings/descents were a little cool. A 3 season sleeping bag was perfectly ok for sleeping under the stars at Wadi Rum, although there were a few mozzies, so take some repellant (you won't need it anywhere else). Petra covers a much bigger area than I'd expected, take comfy trainers for walking as the footpaths and steps have gravel and sand in places. You'll be walking further than you expect. Petra by Night (candlelight and music) was very atmospheric if you like that kind of thing - and it gave us the chance to walk the Siq in the dark (the candles light it up just enough). The Cave Bar by the entrance to Petra offers beer and cocktails and a chance to sit down after all the walking, it's part of the Crowne Plaza hotel so not cheap. Take a warm jacket to the Cave Dinner, it got quite chilly after a while. Try the Jordanian ice cream, ours were multi-flavour/colour and served up as a flower with petal-like shapes. Have a drink on the rooftop bar of the Doubletree Hilton in Aqaba, great views over the port to the Red Sea. It also has a bar area that serves food at lunchtimes with an open air hot tub. In fact, their room prices were pretty much the same as the hotel we were in so I wonder if Exodus could swap to provide a little more luxury for that night! The Wadi Rum camp has a fridge, as does the bus, if you want to have chilled drinks. And the main tent has electricity for charging gadgets.

Vietnam cycling

If you want a trip to see Vietnam, this is the trip for you. I say trip as this is too busy to be called a holiday. Great local experienced guides with the patience of saints. Vietnam is an amazing country. This cycle trip takes you from cities through mountains, beaches, forest and remote hill tribes. Always with amazingly smiley, happy people en route. Long hours on the bus, sometimes long pointless days on the bike. If you want to rack up the miles though our guide certainly knew how to ride a bike, with our mechanic (who seemingly had super human strength) and could aid people by cycling himself and pushing them up hills with one hand. Incredible staff made the sometimes tough days worthwhile.

Most Inspirational Moment

I'll never forget the resilience, happiness, resourcefulness and application for hard work of the Vietnamese people. Amazing. Very humbling to see 70 year olds still working in the rice fields.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Lhyn was excellent. Ours was a group of 18 UK individuals, with varying cycling abilities. Some how he managed to steer us in the right direction. He has the patience of a Saint.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Train at 16-18 mph. Vietnam is NOT flat. It rained really hard on two separate days for us, so getting kit dry was difficult. With four days at the beginning between the ability to get clothes properly washed and dry. We stayed a few extra days (well worth it in Saigon) as you don't get much time to look around, and the jet lag a nightmare. Allow yourself some extra time at the end before going back to work as we were very tired after one night on a train, next on a boat and next in a busy (paper thin walled) Hanoi hotel., then a long flight home

Incredible cycling holiday

This holiday was simply amazing. We cycled through three incredible countries supporter by a wonderful leader Roberto and his team. Everything was so well organised from the very moment we arrived and were welcome with a cold beer, to the very end. We were a bit unlucky since we managed to hit the first hurricane in Costa Rica in about 175 years. However Roberto and his team ensured we were moved to a safe place and could carry on with a plan B. This trip was incredible, so much fun and a great adventure. Recommend it very strongly!!!

Most Inspirational Moment

There were so many inspirational moments on this trip, it's hard to pick just one. I think everyone should go and pick their own :)

Thoughts on Group Leader

Roberto was simply fantastic. He and his team worked incredibly hard to ensure we were all safe and had a lots of fun. And we did!!! Roberto was very professional and had our safety in my first and always ensured we were enjoying ourselves. He always waited for the last person so everyone could cycle at their own pace. Special thanks to Roberto and his team during the hurricane Otto where they took care of us so diligently!!! Exceptional leader and a wonderful team!!!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Although extensive cycling experience is not required, I would recommend to do some cycling preparation for this trip.
