Cuban Highlights Ride (MAC) 11-18 Feb 2016

A most enjoyable 8 days with a perfect combination of cycling and cultural activities. The guide (Laz) was excellent, as a cycling leader, with knowledge of Cuba, and with melding and helping out the group. The cycles were in very good condition (nearly new) and ideal for the task and the mechanic/safety cyclist (Guillaume) was ever cheerful – and had the biggest thighs we’ve ever seen. The bus was very comfortable and the driver (Ivan) very safe. The weather, the music, the accommodation, and the cocktails were always excellent.

Most Inspirational Moment

Wandering around Trinidad and the excellent home stay (Hostal Slovenia ~ Margarita). Music everywhere.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Laz was a perfect tour guide; relaxed, patient, knowledgeable and with excellent English. We were never hassled to move on, never chased to keep up, yet there seemed to be time to do everything. He tolerated our inability to remember timing, restaurant and food options with a smile. Many on the tour were going on to other locations in Cuba or elsewhere and he sorted out all accommodation, directions and transport issues.

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you are thinking about it - go for it! We were concerned that we would not cope with the cycling - we are very irregular cyclists. The cycling was occasionally hard (temperature and hills) but we managed very well. The roads are very quiet, we were always on tarmac (if occasionally potholed) and it was possible to opt out and get on the bus at any time - though we hardly ever did. Seriously, you will cope

Cuban Highlights Ride 11FEB2016

A really interesting insight into this amazing country, viewed from two wheels! We’ve never experienced such a different culture and way of life, and doing it on a bike, gave us a genuine feeling of connection and involvement.
Everyday was different and varied. The cycling was moderate for non-regular cyclists, but the excellent bikes with good gears made the routes easily doable

Most Inspirational Moment

Difficult to choose one moment. The scenery is lovely, but not spectacular. The inspiration was really for us the insight into Cuba and the way Cubans organise their lives

Thoughts on Group Leader

Laz is a knowledgable and amazingly patient guy. He was always ready to answer any questions and change his plans to fit with our requests. We were a very diverse group, with different interests and abilities, and he managed to make sure we all had a good holiday.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Bring everything you want or think you will need, there are NO shops! Well, of course there are some, but they are not as we know them and they don't sell the odds and ends that you would expect in a tourist destination. Bring snacks, there is nowhere to buy sweets or chocolate, etc. (our guide was always very grateful for a sweet offering!) Food is filling and healthy, but not very varied. Do not expect to have a gourmet experience in Cuba ! Bring sterling or Euros to change rather than rely on ATMs, they are few and far between, and some people had trouble making them work. Wifi is very limited, although there did seem to be good mobile phone reception.

An awesome trip

A superb week away, exploring just a bit of what the Dolomites has to offer. Stunning scenery, wonderful walks with views that are breathtaking – we loved it!

Most Inspirational Moment

There were many. On top of Monte Piana hearing about the challenges soldiers fighting in WW1 faced, Sara our guide was a huge inspiration - and has made us want to explore & trek even more. Being able to act like kids - racing through untrodden snow, building snow animals, sledging & meeting a great group of like-minded people to share our week with has made this a fantastic trip.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sara is a fantastic guide - and always going above & beyond what she needs to do. Her knowledge of the area, experience & enthusiasm really helped make this trip as excellent as it was.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Do the sledging on your free day - it's well worth the nervous energy beforehand!! It's great value for money - 35 euro for 4 hours which included the lift pass (we got 7 runs in that time, and a break for lunch at the top of the slope).

Ethiopia in Depth

A thoroughly enjoyable holiday with many memorable moments

Most Inspirational Moment

walking at 10,000ft in the Simien mountains over a carpet of thyme. the rock churches in Lalibela the mule trek

Thoughts on Group Leader

Gabre was a very attentive and informative leader

Advice for Potential Travellers

go with an open mind

Excellent Overview of Sri Lanka

A busy but not too strenuous 2 week discovery-tour of Sri Lanka, taking in a wide range of sights and experiences.
16 in group all very friendly. Mix of couples and singles. Excellent guide, Neelaka, with good knowledge of history, geography and wildlife. Also efficient, and calm, with good sense of humour.

Most Inspirational Moment

Yala National Park , Adams Peak, and the home-cooked lunches served so graciously by locals

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent, see above

Advice for Potential Travellers

Perfect introduction to Sri Lanka Watch out for Chinese New Year - crowds of Chinese visit at this time. Can result in queues at popular places

Finish Wilderness Week

The Finish Wilderness week offered a wonderful array of winter activities to try out with no previous experience needed. Myself and my 21 year old son had a wonderful time meeting both our needs and interpretations of what the holiday would offer us. We enjoyed each others company and the company of the rest of the group whilst enjoying each day to the full. The landscape was truly stunning and everyone was so friendly. Would definitely recommend it. Thank you Exodus.

Most Inspirational Moment

Managing to climb the ice wall. Never give up and with the support of my son telling me I must get up there was wonderful. Although my arms ached for the rest of the holiday I'm glad I did it! The dog Sledging and Snow Mobil were great fun and a highlight too.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Henri was lovely and very informative of each day of the activities. He was helpful and you could ask him anything.

Advice for Potential Travellers

The holiday offered all the equipment you needed and you really do only need to bring your clothes for the evening. Do all the activities and more that are on offer as they are all great.

First rate location, guides and facilities

A great place for both xc beginners and advanced, many options for both on and off track skiing. Excellent leaders who know the place very well and can help inexperienced skiers like me have a great taste of wild Norway in winter.

Most Inspirational Moment

Off track skiing in fresh snow.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be reasonably fit !

Everyone should go to Sri Lanka!

We chose this trip with my parents as we wanted to see Elephants, explore a country we had never been, and have a range of activities. We all thoroughly enjoyed the trip and each day brought something new. Sri Lanka is a fascinating country-historically and culturally. The days were busy but not exhausting. Staff were fantastic and communication was spot on. You really do discover Sri Lanka.

Most Inspirational Moment

We did the optional trip of Elephant Safari in the first couple of days and it was like no other safari I've been on. The elephants were right next to the jeep. Unlike my experiences in Africa, we weren't surrounded by 20+ jeeps all fighting for a better view, and the elephants were so close!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our leader Roshan was an excellent guide, a great communicator and very approachable-we cannot fault him!

Advice for Potential Travellers

It is often, a different hotel each night so pack accordingly so you don't have to unpack everything each night! You are given the option to let the guide sort out the tips-definitely do it!

Trails of Vietnam

This is an action pact holiday full of adventure and fun.

Most Inspirational Moment

Cycling around the Hue Imperial City and around the villages of the Mekong Delta this enabled us to interact with the local people who were just so welcoming and I lost count of how many times people shouted hello to us. It was also the looner new year while we were there and was very special to experience how it's celebrated and being part of the celebrations.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Vinh was an amazing leader he went above and beyond to make sure we had a positive experience of his home country. Because it was new year this created a few challenges for him and he always dealt with it with a smile on his face and a positive attitude. On our last cycling day it was very hot and I really struggled with the last 2k but Vinh stayed with me encouraging me home! What a star!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Plan for the cold in the North ....I really underestimated how cold it would be and my amazing group of travellers gave me a jumper, gloves and hat. Also I can't stress enough to take a padded bike seat cover, especially for the women if you don't it could be painful!

Get there before it changes!

This must be the best Exodus holiday I’ve experienced. First of all a great bunch of fellow travellers make the trip; we all got on very well from the outset. Vinh, the tour leader was very well organised, always knew what was going on and made sure we also knew the ‘plan’ for the present and following days. Hotels and homestays were of good quality and we were very well looked after wherever we were. Included food was usually excellent and abundant, a slimming holiday it was not! Our leader arranged optional meals at local restaurants; again, the food was varied but always of a high quality.
In travelling in and between Hanoi, Ha Long, Hue, Danang, Hoi An and Saigon, we were exposed to the history and culture of this country. Our guide was very well informed about historical events which has shaped Vietnam.
A good bit of walking, a little bit of paddling and some mad cycling composed the active part of the holiday. I was disappointed with so little kayaking but this was somewhat mitigated by the tremendous views in Ha Long bay.

Most Inspirational Moment

Cu Chi tunnels are an experience not to be missed, but anyone who is even slightly claustrophobic would do well to stay above ground! The differences between North and South Vietnam is notable; food, the people, the atmosphere are all, to a certain extent, defined by the geography of this very long, thin country.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Group leader Vinh was brilliant, Very well organised, great communicator, knowledgeable about his country. Good sense of humour and provided a running commentary for all aspects of the trip.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Temperatures between the north and south of the country vary greatly. Make sure you know Hanoi temperatures before you leave. One of our party was unprepared for the cold!
