A great experience in a stunning part of Europe

Great trip for those who like a well rounded experience in a stunning part of Italy. You will experience great hikes along Italy’s stunning north western coastline, with the charm and sophistication of the small villages and resort towns. If you like good food and wine you’re in for a treat.

Most Inspirational Moment

Great blend of amazing natural beauty alongside some of the most picturesque Italian coastline with gastronomical delights.

Thoughts on Group Leader

The group leader was really passionate about this region and all it had to offer.

Advice for Potential Travellers

You need a reasonable level of fitness and if travelling in the warmer months make sure you're well prepared to hydrate and protect yourself from the sun.

Mont Blanc Circuit

Great way to undertake this classic long distance Alpine trek.

Most Inspirational Moment

Fighting the snow and biting wind on the high passes in July. Be prepared for cold weather. Also the amazing view from the 3842m Aiguille du Midi cable car. Highly recommended if you have good weather.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Both Nick (mountain guide) and Tom (camp manager) were excellent. Very knowledgeable, full of enthusiasm and great company.

Advice for Potential Travellers

The descents are really hard on your knees. Take knee supports and trekking poles if you have a history of knee problems.

Excellent walking in Tuscany

An excellent trip which I thoroughly enjoyed with first class accommodation and superb cooking by Mamma.

Most Inspirational Moment

Reaching the summit of Monte Sumbra which I had determined to do beforehand.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sara was absolutely wonderful. I cannot fault her. She looked after everybody and there were times when I was particularly grateful for her attitude and attention. I really cannot praise her highly enough.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take a pair of poles with you-some of the descents are particularly steep and rough.

Poorly constructed trip with some dire accommodation

I have travelled with Exodus several times to adventurous places. This trip was not well constructed, with much (almost half) wasted time. One of the hotels was beyond dire and another treated us very badly indeed. The Hotel Tragos in Trogir was superb and highly recommended. The group was pleasant and the leader was excellent. However, I feel I could have easily organised this trip myself much better and much cheaper. This begs the question why it is constructed this way? Croatia is a glorious country and this should not put you off going, but there are better ways of doing it.

Most Inspirational Moment

Walking on the Island of Korcula, which is lovely out of the main town. However, the old town has turned into Ibiza! The old town of Dubrovnik is amazing. Just wander and get lost in the old streets. It is very crowded, but don't let that put you off.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent. She was amazing. It wasn't the most cohesive group we have encountered and the holiday did have problems. However, she sorted them all with humour and patience. Her knowledge was superb.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Organise it yourself!

Reply from Exodus

Whilst we are happy that Karen’s tour leader was excellent, we were very sorry to hear that Karen was not happy with some of the accommodation on this trip and that she felt there was too much free time. We usually find that the pace of this trip works well, but we have followed Karen’s comments up with our local operator and we will keep a close eye on future client feedback to ensure that our expected accommodation standards are met.

Galapagos WAG

Just back from this trip. Wish we were still on board the Cachalote. What an amazing experience! The time in Quito is limited but we managed to pack in lots, the Teleferico, Old Town, La Bascilica, Botanical Gardens, Quito is easy to get around, taxis are cheap. All transfers were very well managed by the local agents Enchanted Expeditions. The boat, Cachalote 1 was fantastic. Great crew, all friendly. El Capitan ran the ship well. Pedro made exceptional food both quality and amounts from his little galley. Safety was taken seriously. The Galapagos Islands were all and much more than expected. Every day was different, packed full of activities and experiences.

Most Inspirational Moment

Difficult to say what was best, because every day was inspirational. Love the blue footed boobies and all the other birds, even saw the Frigate birds in full display. Never thought I would be swimming with sharks, turtles, sea lions and penguins. Each island was special in its own way. Also our group was lovely, we all got on really well, which goes towards making the experience even more special.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Darwin (yes, that is his real name) was fabulous. He was knowledgeable about everything we wanted to know. He took his time to explain things to us. He seemed to take as much pleasure from the trip as we did.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take sea sickness tablets, we had a couple of rough navigations. This time of year it is worth hiring a wet suit from Richard on the boat ($30 for the week) as its gets a bit cold in the water. Snorkels and masks available on board for free. Try and take biodegradable sun cream so you know you are not harming the environment.

Advice for Potential Travellers

just go and do it

A Great Trip

This was our third cycling holiday and it certainly lived up to all our expectations. The two two leaders Michaela and Giovanni worked extremely hard to ensure everyone enjoyed a great weeks cycling.

Most Inspirational Moment

The scenery along the way on both the coast and the mountain stretches.

Thoughts on Group Leader

The group leaders Michaela and Giovanni were fabulous and worked extremely hard to ensure the entire week ran smoothly including the fruit picnics along the way served from the support vehicle to keep your energy levels up.

Advice for Potential Travellers

There were a couple of days that were certainly at the challenging end of moderate, however if things got too much the support vehicle was always on hand to take the bike and you could ride in the minibus. That said I would not recommend this for a first holiday into cycling, try one of the other easier routes first then move across onto this route. For the more experienced holiday cyclists, this is a great weeks cycling.

Wonderful adventure and experience

I honestly can not recommend this holiday highly enough. The cycling was fantastic even though it was very hot. You don’t have to worry about a thing as everything is taken care of. I have never done so much, saw so much and met so many nice people in such a short space of time.

Most Inspirational Moment

Honestly all of it. Loved cycling through the small villages. Locals love to see you and are so friendly. Halong bay was amazing. Every day brought something different. So many fantastic memories.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Amazing. Danh really made this holiday for us. He is so enthuastic. He was a mother hen looking after his chicks. Danh really could not have done anything more for us and really goes above and beyond his duties to make sure everyone is happy. He is an absolute credit to your company. He is very proud of his country and has a mountain of knowledge he loves to share. He encouraged us every part of the cycle even cycling back down hills to encourage people to the top. He definitely is a happy Buddha only now without the belly and has such a cheeky laugh which we heard frequently. The bus driver and mechanics were wonderful as well. The minute you stopped for a break they were straight over taking your bike and cold drink at the ready. The bus driver was always smiling.

Wonderful adventure!

This was my first organized cycle trip and my first trip to Sardinia. It was wonderful. With a very diverse group of ages and backgrounds we spent a week bonding and laughing! Everything was so well organized, such knowledgeable guides ~ with endless stories of the history, culture and people. Michele and Giovanni were so full of energy and fun, knowing when to encourage us as we climbed higher and longer challenges. They provided for us so well ~ water, fresh fruit, picnic lunches, where to go, what to see.

Most Inspirational Moment

The trip was filled with inspirational moments ~ succeeding in a long ascent ... or not succeeding! But feeling the rush of adrenaline with all the challenges and especially the thrill of descent.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Michele and Giovanni ~ what can I say? Charming, funny, friendly, warm, caring. They looked after everyone of us with such genuine warmth and seemed to know exactly what was necessary. They asked for our opinion, they provided suggestion, they made sure that we were always having fun! They even gave me permission to give in and take the van for a final stretch that was just beyond my readiness. These 2 men were simply wonderful.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Days 3 and 4 were challenging for me ~ I had not cycled the heights before. But I am so glad that I challenged myself to do what I could. Bring your bathing suit ~ the Mediterranean is crystal clear, the bluest blue and the most refreshing way to restore your energy mid-way through each day's cycle.

Fantastic walking holiday!!

This is a wonderful trip with some excellent and varied walks. The hotel where we stayed was run by Jim and Pilar and you really feel you are part of the family. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. The food is wonderful. We are vegetarian, which usually means that you are a bit of an after thought. Not here, the kitchen tries to cater for every diet and we had some lovely dishes and great (and generous) packed lunches. The weather was a bit iffy when we were there, but the tour leader Alvaro has years of experience and knows the area backwards, so he would know what the best walks were for the cloudier or dodgier days. The walking was very varied and the scenery is spectacular. When we were there we saw lots of birds and the wild flowers were wonderful. Also we had an especially nice group which added greatly to the enjoyment of the week.

Most Inspirational Moment

Reaching the final summit on the last day.

Thoughts on Group Leader

What can I say. Alvaro was just a treat to be with. He has so much experience and knowledge and is a lovely person. Very encouraging and helpful.

Advice for Potential Travellers

The walking is graded Moderate, but I would advise you to get a little training in beforehand to really enjoy it.
