Cycle Namibia

This is a well organised and diverse trip. Good cycling, great and varied topography and wonderful wildlife. This is just such a good way to see a good cross section of Namibia. The campsites were terrific set in some wonderful locations and to get swimming pools in some of them is a real bonus.

Most Inspirational Moment

There were two great moments for me. Climbing the giant sand dune for sunrise was brilliant. The colours and shapes and shadows are awesome. The camp site in the Etosha NP was great but watching the wildlife at the water hole late into the evening was pure theatre.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sven and his team were brilliant. So flexible and attentive. They worked so hard to make this trip a success for each of us in the group and the food in camp was terrific. How they manage to produce such great food is beyond me. Fantastic.

Advice for Potential Travellers

In November, be prepared for high day time temperatures. By noon temperatures were reaching close to 40C and Sven, our guide, quite rightly would end our rides by then each day. So do not expect to ride all day. There are also some lengthy transfers but these are needed to ensure we saw as much of the country as possible. We used these to catch up on sleep after early starts. Don't expect to see many village people. The cycling and transfer routes do not really take you through many villages.

Annapurna Sanctuary trek code TNS 151107

This is a wonderful trek with beautiful and varied scenery and a good length- neither too short nor too long. We were fortunate in having good weather, a group that gelled really well and an excellent leader.

Most Inspirational Moment

Reaching Annapurna Base Camp and standing in the Sanctuary surrounded by snow capped mountains on 3 sides.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader, Gele Bishokarma, was excellent. He ensured that everyone was looked after and that everything ran smoothly. We felt we could have complete confidence in him which helped us in turn relax and enjoy the trek to the full. His team ( assistant guides and porters ) were also really helpful and friendly.

Advice for Potential Travellers

While the trek is within the capabilities of most people it helps to be fit to enjoy it. Probably the most important bit of kit is your boots. Make sure they are well worn in and not too tight bearing in mind there is as much downhill as up.

Cycle Kerala and Tropical India - The best Guides and support driver anywhere

Our Exodus staff were amazing. They took care of us so well, knew the best and quietest routes, stopped for tea and snacks at just the right moment. They took great care of our bicycles too.

I enjoyed being able to see a part of India from a bicycle instead of a car or bus. the tour took us from an interior city to a beach town on the Arabian Sea. We cycled up a long and high hill to Ooty and the next day down 2000 metres on a winding road through beautiful tea plantations. LAter we cycled along the coast. the houseboat trip was lovely and super relaxing.

Most Inspirational Moment

MANY GREAT MOMENTS:. Making it up the hill to Ooty, when a young boy stopped to pick up and return my water bottle which had fallen on the road, when children said hello to us as we rode by, when families asked us to pose with them for photos, meeting great local people, and yummy food, seeing tea plantations, and the Arabian Sea, swimming in the warm sea at sunset, meeting the others on the tour - the most humorous group I have ever met.

Thoughts on Group Leader

He was excellent. thoughtful and considerate and knowledgeable, and calm and great to be with.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be prepared for crazy traffic in the cities and large towns and go your own comfortable speed.

Discover Costa Rica

An excellent expedition with a variety of landscapes and wildlife, and a comprehensive introduction to tropical Costa Rica.

Most Inspirational Moment

Difficult to say with so much to choose from but Turtles hatching and making their first precarious journey to the sea at Tortuguero was a reassuringly rewarding sight.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Antonio was excellent. His willingness to reveal his comprehensive ecological knowledge was more than we might have expected. Although he must have lead many groups along the same path, his infectious enthusiasm was undimmed and happily shared. He enjoyed a good relationship with the group who responded to his clear advice and instructions.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Just go!

Cycling Vietnam

A most enjoyable holiday marred only by the essential long bus journeys

Most Inspirational Moment

It was all memorable, each day provided a new experience

Thoughts on Group Leader

He was awesome, so helpful, patient and knowledgeable

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pack frugally and pack your first days riding clothing in your hand luggage as it is not uncommon for hold luggage to go astray for a while. Not the fault of Exodus.

Amazing Chile

One of the most fascinating trips I have been on. The beauty of the country is incredible and with such an extreme range of landscapes ( and weather ! ) from the north to the south you would be hard pressed to find more diverse trip in one single country.

Most Inspirational Moment

Too many to choose just one - Watching the sunrise over the Torres del Paine. Picnic at a beautiful turquoise lake at the base of the Torres on a clear and sunny day. The eerie dawn at El Tatio Geysers.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Alex was a charming and fun guide. He has a wealth of knowledge in a multitude of subjects from wildlife, geology, plants and history. He was really considerate and very sociable with the group and made what was an already wonderful trip, so much more special. He went the extra mile to give us the best possible experience of Chile.

Advice for Potential Travellers

This country will amaze you ! Don't be put off by all the flights - it is a small price to pay for seeing the diversity of Chile. Some of the short treks are actually tough going if you're not a walker. Be prepared for all weathers with lots of layers and a very warm jacket for the chilly mornings. Do as many of the activities as you can to make the most of the available time - there is so much to see. Don't underestimate how cold it will be in the morning at the Geysers ! When flying to and from Punta Arenas/ Puerto Montt try to sit on the side of the plane that overlooks the mountains as you will get an amazing view of the Ice fields and Glaciers.

Cycle Cuba

An outstanding trip that allows you to see at first hand all aspects of Cuban life and history, both in the towns and cities as well as in the villages and countryside.

Most Inspirational Moment

The pride of the Cuban people.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader José, was a credit to Exodus, He effortlessly created a cohesive and inclusive group and was always prepared to listen to and accommodate, wherever possible, the desires and wishes of individuals as well as the group. Especially bearing in mind the wide age range and cycling experience and abilities within the group. A very knowledgeable guide and leader with a wicked sense of humour.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Be prepared for some very long straight roads, but the rewards are great.
