If you think you’ve “done” Italy, think again. This trip takes you beyond the crowds to the rolling Prosecco Hills (a part of Italy I had never even heard of before coming to work at Exodus!), charming villages, family-run wineries, and hidden corners of Venice that most visitors never see. It’s the perfect blend of active exploration, incredible food and wine, and authentic local experiences.
We’re in the pre-Alps, so there are definitely some inclines and declines and uneven terrain, so make sure to save those Aperol spritzes for AFTER the hikes 🙂

Carolyn Okon Walk The Prosecco Hills & Hidden Venice

Tiziano made our Sicilian journey memorable with his wonderful sense of humor, warmth, and impressive knowledge of the island’s history and culture. Personable, approachable, and always cheerful, he brought Sicily to life through his stories and enthusiasm. What made him particularly special was his genuine compassion. When I was unwell during the trip, he showed exceptional kindness, empathy, and concern for my well-being. His thoughtfulness meant a great deal to me. Tiziano is not only a terrific guide but also a truly lovely human being. I cannot recommend him highly enough!

William Meeker Hiking the Dolomites

Our two weeks in Morocco were truly memorable, with a wonderful mix of history, culture, stunning landscapes, and unique local experiences. From exploring the ancient medinas to riding camels in the Sahara and sharing meals with local families, every part of the journey offered something special. Our tour leader, Hassan, was exceptional. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and genuine care for the group made the experience even better. We also enjoyed the company of our fellow travelers, making new friends and sharing stories along the way. A fantastic way to experience Morocco, and a trip we would highly recommend!

Travelled as a single and managed to twist my knee before the actual cycling trip started. Not a good start. But the e-bike I’d ordered was great, and it was just a matter of hitting the battery harder than usual. The rest of the group was lovely and Alan Skulic the group leader was very patient and understanding – even carried my suitcase up 3 flights of stairs in Dubrovnik! Adrian our driver was equally patient and helpful. Croatia is stunning and the routes were varied and enjoyable. Some didn’t enjoy the gravel part; I’m used to gravel so I loved it. Some lovely downhills and the long climb on the first day was especially enjoyable. Prekrasno – the Croatian word for stunning. Easily remembered: break-crash-no.

Bethan Evans Cycling Croatia's Dalmatian Coast

It has taken me a couple of months to process this trip. I previously reviewed on the plane back from trips. You see a lot of things, I was away 20 days.
Dehli hot, a wall of heat as expected. I went out for a couple of longer explorations, plenty of things to see. If at the Hotel Deventure, Shandipur is the easier metro station to walk to, but further away from the centre; metro is the cheapest way to get around and air conditioned once in the train, tuk-tuk’s are around 10 times more expensive and hassle you if you dare to walk, or you can book an air conditioned taxi if you want to spend more. My favourite moment here ended being India arch at sunset at the end of my trip.
The hotels we stayed in were all comfortable enough for me, some more basic than others, The Milky Way in Hundar or Traditional Havali Hotel in Jaipur were probably my favourites.
Indian towns and cities have many cows, dogs, monkeys wondering around; there is lots of building work going on, like the nation has never been quite finished, even up in Ladakh on the trek around Wachan.
The camping for me was comfortable; single persons get a spacious 3 person tent.
The weather was mixed, sometimes sunny, some showers and fog, unusually cool (I had expected to be hot when walking).
Each day’s walks were shorter going up than I expected, though as I had some altitude sickness probably for the best. Our guide had another shorter walk most afternoons after tea from camp and when she didn’t I had a little stroll myself unless it was too wet (or on a morning to see the sun rise).
We also saw other people trekking and an Indian army expedition higher up.
