Another great Exodus trip under my belt, and I’m looking ahead to see where I want to go next.
The Highlights of Mont Blanc seemed to be the perfect blend of exercise and comfort for me. Our guide, shaun set a great pace that we were all able to maintain. We had several opportunities to go higher and further or shorten the day with a descent or cable car ride.
The food at the chalet was the best I’ve ever had on a group tour. Thanks to Rich and Sarah!
My only complaint was the weak and unreliable wifi in the chalet. Couldn’t get a connection in my room, only in the lounge.
On our third day of hiking, we did about 3400 ft of elevation and 7 miles. It was difficult but thrilling, especially when the hang glider came very close to us.
Shaun did a great job taking us away from over crowded Chamonix (UTMB week) and pacing the group so everyone could do as much as they wanted.
I recommend you. Is it these countries to help them develop their tourism, so they can rebuild their countries for the future. The world can learn from their past, spreading their stories to prevent wars like they experienced.
They are not sophisticated regarding tourism, but they are finding their way because the government does not invest enough and therefore citizens are using tourism money to invest in rebuilding themselves. The stories of resilience and the spectacular scenery make these countries a must see now, before they get to commercially sophisticated.
The only tour downside was the quality of accomodation on the tour which I felt were 1-2star level and did not live up to the price of the tour.
The countries were stunning, sometimes raw and compelling which was refreshing (its sobering to see mortar and sniper damaged buildings that show their recent past). The citizens were warm, friendly and couldn’t do enough for tourists as they need to build a strong tourism industry to create more jobs to help each country prosper.
The tour leader (Sabina) was excellent and made our trip great. She was enthusiastic, knowledgeable, careing, friendly and shared personal family stories that bought the regions historical past and impacts to life for us. Would travel with her as a guide in a heartbeat. She spoke exceptional English, had great humour and supported everyone individual needs.
2 of the 3 short hikes/walks were ok if you were average fitness, the 3rd and last hike really did need people to be a bit above average fitness, though you could sit it out and do something else on you own if you wanted.
A thoroughly enjoyable trek through France, Switzerland and Italy. It’s a lovely feeling to walk everywhere (with the occasional use of local buses). The hotels and auberges were comfortable and we were well fed throughout the trip. There was a large choice of food and fruits for packed lunches which we made ourselves, choosing as much as we wanted. The walking was fabulous, I loved seeing the different scenery and villages.
I particularly enjoyed walking over the cols to the next valleys. Always a wow moment.
Nick was a great guide, and knew a lot about the mountains and the things living in them. I don't think anyone was ever anxious about what the day might bring as trickier parts of the walk were dealt with as we arrived at them and not over thought of before. He had a calm, relaxed manner which made all the days enjoyable.
Always carry wet weather gear. We only had just over an hour of rain on one occasion whilst walking but I was grateful for the waterproofs I'd carried for nearly a fortnight. Do get fit but don't over worry. We live in a very flat area so only really walk up hills and mountains whilst on holiday and we had no problem. Carry plenty of water. Be prepared to wait for slower members of the group... never a problem when you're an such beautiful surroundings!
I have a wonderful time met some amazing people and shared the adventure of a lifetime. I would have no hesitation in recommending this holiday to anyone who loves hiking/trekking
Getting to the summit
Mohamed Idali was a very well informed local guide from the Berber community who spoke good English. His extensive knowledge of the High Atlas put everyone’s mind at rest whilst in remote areas.
Drink lots of water to prevent altitude sickness
It’s absolutely amazing that you can walk for 2 weeks in such an unique place without seeing any other groups (there one just another one). Beautiful scenery, tough terrain, good food and amazing local staff.
Urdukus and Concordia
Sara is fantastic. She's always on top of things, which is essential for a tour leader on this trip. Her medical knowledge came really handy for a few people on our group. Her relationship with the locals, and her involvement in local projects is very inspirational.
Book this trip!
Brilliant guide
Brilliant support driver
Brilliant group
Fantastic country – mostly in Transylvania
Great bike
Great accommodation
Challenging but very satisfying daily bike rides
When one of our group (young female) stopped two galloping horses tied to a cart careering through a small village, even the owners could not stop them and were very impressed
Tudor was first rate; great leader, knew Transylvania's history and geography inside out. Great sense of humour, knew when to be serious and when to be light hearted Great with the slower as well as the quicker cyclists
Book it!
An good stay in the Amalfi region, with excellent but challenging walks.
All walks, site visits and local activities were well organised and informative. The walk of the gods was particularly stunning.
Vania was excellent in all respects. She was very cool, calm and collected and her interpersonal (people skills) were exceptional. Her English was fluent and entertaining. She was very conscious of the groups needs and ensured that the group stayed together, despite differing abilities within the group.
Make sure you are fit enough for the challenges ahead. It is not easy walking. A good pair of stout walking shoes and poles are essential.
A very well organized trip and very good value for money.
The scenery was breathtaking
Our group leader was very professional and friendly
Do make sure you understand the level you signed for in the case of a hiking trip.
We were extremely lucky with the weather (Aug), however, this did result in some of the hiking being rather more strenuous than anticipated as it was really warm most days – take lots of water!
The trip was brilliant, highlights every day, but the bears (in the wild and at the sanctuary) definitely made the trip!!!
Our guide, Thomas, couldn’t have been more interesting (and funny) and extremely knowledgeable about the fauna, flora and history – simply the best!
Villa Hermani was a hit too; friendly & helpful, good food and very reasonably priced drinks.
Highly recommended trip.
The bears without a doubt! Lovely to see in the wild, however, visiting the sanctuary in bright daylight produced the best photos.
Our guide, Thomas, couldn't have been more interesting (and funny) and extremely knowledgeable about the fauna, flora and history - simply the best!
Take plenty of water on your hikes, especially if warm weather. Villa Hermani - don't bother with their wi-fi; extremely slow (used 4G instead).
This was an amazing trip covering thousands of kilometres, a plethora of wildlife and geological features and some insight into some of the cultures of the countries visited.
I thought it would be the elephants crossing the river at Chobe, or canoeing on the Zambesi, or Victoria Falls, or seeing giraffes or or or - the list goes on. However, the sudden gorgeous orange red glow of the African sunsets will stay with me forever as will sitting by the waterhole in Etosha and watching the animals arrive, especially the 40 elephants.
Our guides were Ende - the outgoing, but sensitive, leader anxious to please us whilst keeping us in check to make sure that we fitted in a very full itinerary, Andrew who was quietly extraordinarily efficient and always on the lookout to make sure we were all right, and Innocent whose knowledge of birds and stars was phenomenal. Their cooking was amazing - don't believe the trip notes' description of 'basic'. It wasn't long before we felt we were travelling with knowledgeable friends. Thank you Ende, Andrew and Innocent.
Take a hat, binoculars, anti mosquito spray and keep clothes to a minimum. Warm sleeping bag, (possibly + liner). Some long journeys, so you might want a kindle.
