Ferdinand Rullan Highlights of MoroccoOne of the best Exodus trips I have experienced. Exodus was able to select the best locations of Morocco to provide an experience not to be forgotten for a long time. We were 15 in our group and we were all quite fun and enjoyable with each other during the long bus rides and tour walks and meals together. We enjoyed the tours of Marrakech, Fez, and Essaouira. Quite thrilling to ride the camels on the Sahara Desert. The sunrise and sunsets on the Sahara were spectacular.
Robyn Long Marrakech & the SaharaThis wonderful trip is great for people who want to see more of Morocco. The culture, people and landscapes will be something i won’t forget for a long time.
Marin Popa Ancient & Modern JapanThe itinerary was thoughtfully designed, allowing us to explore a wide range of fascinating destinations throughout the trip.
Activity level was 1, not 3 as advertised.
The hotels were comfortable, with two exceptions:
Hotel SUI Kyoto Kiyomizu in Kyoto – Situated on a busy main road, the hotel suffered from significant noise even during nighttime hours due to poor sound insulation. Breakfast was consistently overcrowded.
Route Inn Kawaguchiko – The room was small and dimly lit, with a window facing a concrete wall just two metres away. The décor was dated; it felt like the last renovation was done in the 1980s, and the breakfast offering was disappointing in both quality and variety.In contrast, Hotel Monterey Akasaka in Tokyo stood out as the best accommodation – stylish, comfortable, and well located.
Dining independently was a highlight of the trip. We enjoyed excellent meals at various local restaurants, often at very reasonable prices. However, the two complimentary dinners provided in Takayama were surprisingly poor in quality. In hindsight, it would have been preferable to explore dining options on our own that evening as well.
Public transportation was generally a positive experience and added to the trip’s authenticity. That said, the day spent navigating Kyoto’s local buses and trains resulted in more time waiting than sightseeing. Additionally, the transfer from Kawaguchiko to Tokyo consumed most of the day. A chartered bus would have significantly reduced travel time to under two hours, and allowed for a more relaxed and efficient transition.
