BREATHTAKING - LITERALLY!

Ten challenging but supremely rewarding walking days, each ending in comfortable accommodations with ample time to get clean, enjoy fantastic food, rest and recover for the next adventure. Three well-spaced rest days to relax and enjoy the charming towns of Chamonix, Courmayeur and St. Gervais. Breathtaking views of the Mont Blanc massif at all angles in various conditions. Life affirming moments overcoming the Cols (mountain passes). Delightful interactions with fellow trekkers from around the world, and exposure to French, Swiss and Italian cultures. Thrilling optional activities including tandem paragliding (highly recommended) and a visit to the amazing Aiguille du Midi.

Most Inspirational Moment

Crossing the Grand Col Ferret (the highest point of the trip at 8300 feet) in clouds, then descending into the blue -sky beauty of the Courmayeur valley.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Tim was THE BEST!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Train for this trip - walk daily in the boots you will be wearing. Use trekking poles to save your knees and make descents safer. Invest in good socks (wool with thin synthetic liner socks worked for me - could hand wash quick-dry liners and wear wool outer socks for several days). Bring smaller backpack - only need to carry water, waterproofs, pack lunch, phone, money and sun cream. WIFI available most hotels but consider esim plan for WhatsApp group info and photo sharing.

Tour du Mont Blanc Hotel Trek

A great trip overall, good communication about the trip beforehand and then an excellent guide and trip throughout!

Most Inspirational Moment

The amazing scenery, the fellow travelers on the trip, the guide all made the trip a once in a lifetime experience for me!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Jeffry is an amazing leader! I have been on many prior group trips and he is honestly the most outstanding leader I have ever been exposed to. He was friendly and personable, extremely knowledgeable on topics of health, safety, the natural world and hiking, as well as philosophy, science, photography and many more! It was a joy to spend time with him!

Amalfi Coast Family Adventure

The family tour was wonderful. The itinerary included something for everyone and all three of our children (aged 11 to 17) loved it.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visiting Pompeii, getting the children cooking in the restaurant, Path of the Gods walk

Thoughts on Group Leader

Severio was brilliant. He got on so well with the children they wrote him a poem! He was helpful in pointing out cheaper restaurants and sorting out transport arrangements for our eldest, who was travelling separately.

Discover Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka is an amazing country and our guide, Roshan, was excellent.

Most Inspirational Moment

The festival at Kandy; climbing Lion Rock; the bicycle ride through the village; the beach stay. I also loved the food.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Roshan was an excellent guide. He was attentive to our various needs and made alternative plans when we were unable to walk on the Horton Plains due to rain. I am particularly grateful that he made sure that I not only saw the festival at Kandy but also found us such great seats. I did not know much about Sri Lanka but I am now inspired to learn more thanks to Roshan's informative mini-history talks during our long travel days, which I really enjoyed.

Discover Costa Rica

On arrival in Costa Rica we were received at the airport and transferred to our hotel very efficiently. Our tour guide Carlos was excellent throughout clearly explaining the daily itinerary and enthusiastically sharing his knowledge of the country and wildlife. All accommodation, meals and activities were excellent. with the exception of the Mangroves boat trip which we raised in the local survey. Overall the itinerary gave a very good flavour of the diverse nature of the country and it wildlife. Based on this we would recommend Exodus without hesitation.

Most Inspirational Moment

Seeing a diversity of wildlife and sharing this with the rest of the party and with Carlos and Randall. I particularly enjoyed the warm welcome we received from Aurora? on our visit to her a dairy farm. This was typical of the friendly nature of everyone we met.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Just a fantastic guy really.

Lived up to expectations

We recently completed the Tour, having waited a few years after a ‘covid cancellation’ and whilst being fortunate with the weather (there were high temperatures before our trip and heavy rain afterwards), we enjoyed it immensely. The physical challenge was huge, perhaps not unexpectedly and the scenery utterly beautiful. If I could sum up our experience I’d say that our previous two major treks were in the Himalayas amongst mountains almost twice the height but this did nothing to lessen the majesty and sheer beauty of the Mont Blanc region. Any disappointments such as too much shopping for lunch and a poor hotel experience in St Gervais were minor niggles.

Most Inspirational Moment

Reaching Col du Tricot after the epic climb from Refuge de Miage will live long in the memory, it epitomises my belief that in the mountains, hard work brings rewards.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our leader Agu was as good as any Exodus leader we have had in the past. He was informative, friendly, good-humoured and well equipped with leadership skills. He would also work hard in the background on our behalf, whether providing info on day-off activities or making adjustments to our plans to suit someone in the group.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Train hard and pack for all conditions.

Awesome Fjord Experience

Amazing discovery of the fjords via hiking, cruise, ferry rides and mini-bus travel. The accommodations at Nes Gard and Fjaerland Fjordstove Hotel added to the spectacular hiking. Views of the fjords and farm-to-table food was amazing at both Inns. Each day of hiking was a unique experience ; all of which offered amazing views.

Most Inspirational Moment

Our most challenging hike on the 4th day with picnic lunch at Marifijora, a spectacular view of several fjords.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Flo, our leader, was a great guide. Friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating to all hikers.

Carpathian Walking & Bears

It was a great trip and the guide was terrific. The accommodations and food were good.

Most Inspirational Moment

The last day’s hike was the best. The hike to Bran was excellent as was the trip to Bra?ov. Thomas was very informative about Romania, bears, and the region.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Thomas was terrific in every respect. Especially grateful he was able to provide hiking shoes since my luggage was delayed three days. He was helpful contacting the courier to inquire about the status of my luggage.

Unforgettable Costa Rica Adventure – Pura Vida at its Best!

A wonderfully organised Costa Rica family adventure filled with hot springs, wildlife, and unforgettable moments — truly capturing the spirit of pura vida.

Most Inspirational Moment

Watching a sloth slowly move through the trees in its natural habitat was incredible — a reminder to slow down, be present, and appreciate the beauty around us.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our leader was jovial, approachable, and always made sure everyone was well looked after. He kept the energy positive and the group engaged, which really enhanced the experience and he made the trip smooth, fun, and memorable.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pack light, bring comfortable shoes, and don’t forget a rain jacket — the rainforest really does live up to its name! Make time to relax in the hot springs, stay open to every new experience, and most importantly, embrace the pura vida lifestyle.

Wildlife & Wilderness of Botswana

From getting info and the whole booking process even adding my friend later to the booking. The info provided was very good. And once on our trip it exceeded all my expectations – my friend says it was the best experience of her life. I had grown up in Kenya until I was 20 over 53 yrs ago we had gone on some amazing camping safaris . Kenny. Brighton and Yetu and the Delta polers and guide looked after us amazingly. Very professional. We all felt safe . They were so helpful and patient also so informative. They all seemed to go that extra mile their hospitality was wonderful. Incredible packing up and unpacking the ad hoc picnic lunches on the side of the road amazing salads . Superb evening meals and lunches. Even the comfort stops for 4 ladies! Planned and appropriate.

Most Inspirational Moment

Everything was a highlight. Even the sand filled shoes all te way back home. We chose to arrive 2 days earlier and stayed independently at Audi Camp which was wonderful and helped us acclimatise after a long journey and.. Our luggage didn't arrive until next day due to tight connection in Johannesburg. But the team at Audi were so helpful. So we were even more grateful having the extra time. We stayed in the v comfortable ensuite tents.

Thoughts on Group Leader

I think our group was a little unusual. But Kenny managed us well. He was v professional at all times. V helpful. But also fun too. He had some long days and a lot of driving. Impressive. Thank you
