A trip which "does exactly what it says on the tin".
Visiting Che Guevara's mausoleum in Santa Clara.
Jorge was an exceptional leader who took us to a couple of fantastic paladares as well as more "up market" restaurants. (I should also like to mention our driver Eduardo who was always smiling and attentive to the ladies when disembarking from the coach).
Book it now! you will not be disappointed, guaranteed!
Great Holiday with like minded people
Seeing Angkor Wat at sunrise, it was well worth getting up at 5am.This should be the time to start the tour of Ankgor Wat as later in the afternoon the heat becomes unbearable also there are a milion other Tourists.
Our Leader Siam was brilliant even though he had just ridden with us 10-15k when we stopped for a break he was around the group making sure we all had drinks, snacks and answered endless question with a big smile on his face.
Make sure you are at least a little bit fit and you will enjoy it much more, don't bother taking energy drinks or bars are the kitty provide plenty of them.
A fantastic holiday with tremendous scenery, wonderful wildlife and a great group of fellow travellers. Certainly ot the most demanding cycling, but a great time nonetheless.
The most inspirational moment of the holiday was the dramatic scenery of the Blyde River Canyon. An amazing spectacle and our final cycling destination.
Tallis was a very knowledgeable guide and tour leader. His enthusiasm for the flora and fauna of South Africa was infectious. His success at herding 14 'cats' was not always as apparent, despite this he always maintained a sense of humour.
For those wanting a full-on cycling experience, this may not be for you, however, if you are happy to compromise on the cycling for the other aspects of the holiday then I would thoroughly recommend the trip.
Fantastic skiing and hospitality in the Stunning Dolomites. My Cross-Country skiing came on a treat with the excellent teaching of Anne. My waistline expanded with the tyrolean 5 course dinners.
Completing a 22 Km ski on the final day from near Cortina to Dobbiaco, finished off with a ski down the hill at the Nordic Arena in town.
Brilliant - a great teacher and group leader seemingly effortlessly coping with all levels of skiing ability and sociability.
Take your own walking boot/shoe insoles - the ones in my hire boots were very tired and scrunched up inside the boot on some days.
Varied itinerary, mixed activities and so suited me to the ground. We had a large group, but actually you also get plenty of time to do your own thing, so this didn’t create a problem. Friendly people and country, that has been affected by all the unrest around it, but is in itself safe and welcoming. The tour had a steady pace, so still felt like a holiday .
Walking down the Sik in the dark , illuminated only by candles, on our first evening in Petra. So our first experience was unclouded by the knowledge of what we saw in the light the next day.
Really experienced, professional, very knowledgeable and friendly, good sense of humour.
Take a sleeping bag for in the desert, but if it is broght, sleep outside, ear plugs helpful.Dont expect western standards for hotels, but the ones choosen by exodus are always adequate and suit the 3 star status. we found ours good, some other people on the trip weren't impressed. service good and food reasonable too.used ATM for money, but had an unsuccessful attempt on the first day. Also plenty of places to change money, so would recommend taking some cash to do this too.Walking trainers suffice for scrambling round the rocks and paths of petra, if you are a confident/ experineced walker, and actually provide better grip.
I really enjoyed the weeks activities, I had been concerned about my fitness levels before I went on the trip but as the sessions were usually half a day this was not a problem. All the activities were well supervised and mostly well organised although as nearly all the group wanted to do the whole day optional dog sledding it did give the organisers a few logistical issues.
The scenery in the national park was stunning, we were lucky enough to have sun shine on the day we tried the dog sledding and it gave the park a magical quality.
Although Teddy was our designated leader for the week we were looked after by a team of individuals all of whom were great.
If you want to try a selection of winter activities then just book this trip it is alot of fun. Just make sure you check the trip notes for the additional extras as these are expensive and so is the alcohol - 5 Euros for a can of local beer and 21 Euros for a bottle of wine.There is no need to worry about packing any winter gear other than your thermals as the rest is supplied for you although I may have been more tempted to sleep in the quincy if I had taken a winter coat and pair of waterproof trousers with me.
Kerala was everything I had hoped it would be. The trip was very well organised and our hotels and transport were all very good
I persoanally loved out bus trip from Cochin to Munnar, to the Tea Plantations in the Hill Station. The bus trip, thoug lenghty, was relaxing, and gave me the opportunity of seeing stunning country side I wouuld have been nable to see otherwise.The tea plantations were so green and lush. To be able to see the sheer size of the plantations so high up the hillsides, and see how hard the wowmn worked at so diligently taking the leaves was a sight I shall never forget. Visiing the tea museum,and watching the whole process of how tea leaves are processed from picking the leaves to tea cup , wasreally interesting. I have the greatest respect for the humble cuppa now
Santosh was a superb group leader. He was so warm and friendly , and a walking encyclopeadia of knowledge. He made the trip so interesting, and added his little suprises for us along the way..Nothing was a bother for him
Make sure that your clothing is as light as possible. Kerala is extremely humid, there is little escape from it. Drink plenty water at all times, and have a hat. Take India as you find it. It is noisy and chaotic in some of he larger cities, but it all works
Just generally a great trip. Well organised, well lead and not a single hassle. Even when the weather didn’t play its part there wasn’t a hassle. The Anti-Atlas is a great place for escaping the world, marvelling at the surroundings and enjoying the company of like-minded people.
Not sure there was a particularly "inspirational" moment but a lot of shared laughs and many memories to keep you laughing.
Awesome! Abdullah, great guy who was very knowledgable and knew the location very well. When the weather didn't allow us to follow the days planned route he came up with a solution very quickly that was almost better than the original. His team worked well with him and kept us comfortable and VERY well fed.
A great escape from the dreary of European winter. Go prepared for all weather from very cold to warm sunshine. It is definitely a walkers holiday so be aware of the grading and your fitness level. Nothing extremely tough, just right for an active holiday.Don't forget a lighter!
Fabulous trip where you get to experience so many of the highlights of Rajasthan. We got to cover so much in a short space of time, a great introduction to India.
Seeing the Taj Mahal - so amazing to see it for real, a beautiful place.Udaipur - the hotel on the lake was an amazing setting, trying an authentic thali, getting stuck in a tuk-tuk traffic jam due to a wedding procession, the cultural show, the city palace - and of course the shopping!
Pancham was a good leader with lots of information and always there to help and advise. He did a great job of keeping a group of 16 organised and making sure we all got to see all the things we wanted to see.
The cultural show in Udaipur was an excellent show of Rajasthan music and dance - great value for money. The Bollywood movie was great fun.
Good trip though not ‘Amazing’ as it could have been.
The black rhino in Ngorongoro was really great to see, especially since there aren't that many of them left. The leopard cub in a tree was an unexpected (but very welcome ) viewing. The end of the migration in the Serengeti was one of the sights that I wanted to see and I was not disappointed.
She was alright but not in any way exceptional. When I asked why all the wildebeest we saw in the Serengeti were males she came up with some weird and (not so) wonderful explanation that all the females died giving birth!!!!! If that was the case then who raised the calves?? Surely the species would die out within a few years. My theory - while not neccessarily correct - that the females followed on when the younsters were a little stronger made much more sense.... She was good at spotting the animals as we were driving along but not always so knowledgeable when questions were asked.Also we were not made aware of where and when we could do laundry until we specifically asked to be told at every opportunity.
Don't stick too closely to what is said in the trip notes as they are not always correct. Do take mossie repellant, toilet rolls, a blowup pillow, binoculars (though you don't always get chance to use them due to the constant movement), a camera with a good zoom - I took a compact with a good zoom and it was perfectly adequate - you don't need to tote along massive lenses, a good head torch is essential and spare camera batteries as you can't always charge them, though most of the time recharging is available on the truck. Also make sure you have a good memory card or two as you will take hundreds of pictures and you don't want to be running out of memory or battery at that vital moment. You don't need a 3 season sleeping bag as the trip notes say but a good 2 season with liner is perfectly adequate. Also it does not get too cold in the mornings or evenings requiring coats etc but you will need a good fleece to ward off the chill on occasion though one is all you will need. It doesn't matter whether you wear bright colours or not as you are in the truck for pretty much all the game viewing, and besides, all animals except for birds, fish and apes are colour blind.You do not need to search out biodegradeable hand washing deregent with you as you don't really get the chance to do any washing and I just did mine in the shower with me. Likewise with shampoos - there are shower blocks everywhere so you do not have to get your water from rivers or lakes (even if these were available which they are not). A sun hat to me is an absolute must as the sun is very hot when walking round local markets. A large sarong or equivalent is a good idea as there is often nowhere to get dried after your shower so I just wrapped myself in my large sarong and went back to my tent to get dry instead of trying to hop about on one foot getting dressed in the cubicle while not getting your clothes wet.
