Highlights of Albania

Albania itself was a pleasant surprise, the tour was good to see a lot of the country, culture, history, food and people. It was inexpensive and best of all Artur the guide was excellent, informative with his knowledge and duty of care and detail. Driver, Diu was very good driver and looked after us.They both work very well together and made the holiday awesome

Most Inspirational Moment

The highlights were the family lunch, the two traditional homes we got to see as they were very different and amazing to see how families lived. The history of Albania and its troubles and the historical sites. People themselves all around us were polite and welcoming, scenery was also amazing

Thoughts on Group Leader

Artur was an amazing guide, attention to detail, care of the group, imparting his knowledge. He would help people out where he could and go beyond to make sure we were all looked after. His ability to think what else needed to be done, take notes of what could be done better for the next group from our comments etc. He continually asked us for feedback of hotels and venues etc. was impressive.

Mexico's Yucatán Adventure

Most Inspirational Moment

Sunday night in Valloidid (seeing locals out dancing in the square) Uxmal mayan site Ceynote Cooking in Merida Rio Lagartos boat trip

Thoughts on Group Leader

Angel was a lovely warm and friendly man. Passionate about the mayan culture and very knowledgeable. Very good customer service. He went out of his way to show us so many things and really looked after us. He was very organised - planned ahead, always ready at times agreed to depart/meet etc. Excellent all round.

Fjords, Forests, and Forever Memories

This trip quickly became one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. Norway is breathtaking in photos, but nothing compares to standing among the fjords, mountains, and forests in person. Every destination on the itinerary had its own personality and charm, making the journey feel like several incredible trips woven into one.

I especially loved how immersive each stop was. Whether we were exploring Trondheim, learning to cook with local ingredients at Sveggvika Guesthouse, kayaking through the fjords, or enjoying the Viking dinner at Blåtind Boutique Hotel, every experience felt authentic and thoughtfully planned.

What made this trip even more special were the people we met along the way. The hotel staff, local hosts, and everyone who shared their traditions and stories made Norway feel incredibly welcoming. It never felt like we were just passing through, it felt like we were being invited to experience a small piece of everyday Norwegian life.

Most Inspirational Moment

Kayaking through the fjord and stopping to eat lunch from a local bakery that was packed in waterproof bags! The mountains rising around us, the quiet, and the feeling of being surrounded by nature, I felt like I was in a nature documentary.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Åshild truly made the trip exceptional. She was organized, knowledgeable, and always happy to answer questions or offer recommendations. More importantly, she made everyone feel comfortable and welcome from the very beginning. Her enthusiasm for Norway was contagious, and you could tell she genuinely wanted every person in our group to have the best possible experience. By the end of the trip, it felt like we were saying goodbye to a friend. I may have shed a few tears after our final farewell.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Bring layers, some days have more sun or wind, and the rain can change the temperature too! Comfortable walking shoes are essential, and hiking boots for hiking days. Say yes to the optional experiences, try the local foods (especially the brown cheese!), and take time to soak in the magic of Norway!

First time in Norway, definitely not the last!

This trip was a truly amazing and magical way to experience Norway. Each of the hotels provide their own unique locales and activities from the city, to the coast, to deep in the forests along the fjords.

The Britannia in Trondheim is right in the heart of the city and a brief walk from a variety of activities and shopping areas. The city feels alive and is full of wonderful and friendly people. The private tour of the Britannia felt like such a warm and exclusive moment of the trip, and the service at the hotel is top-notch!

Our second stop, the Sveggvika Guesthouse, was probably one of my favorites. The ferry ride to Kristiansund was full of breathtaking views, and our rooms at the guesthouse were beautiful. The owners are the kindest most genuine people you have ever met; they made the cooking class and beer tasting experiences feel like I was doing them with close friends I’d known for years. This is also where we got to experience swimming in the Fjord at our guide Åshild’s suggestion. It’s not on the itinerary but it is a MUST DO!

Our final stop at the Blåtind Boutique Hotel. The Viking dinner experience was probably my favorite meal of the entire trip. The locally sourced three-course meal was delicious, and was even paired with cider from our cider tasting earlier in the day! We met a variety of people on this leg of our trip, and being able to share in the joys of their professions was an unforgettable experience.

Most Inspirational Moment

Kayaking through the fjord and experiencing a sense of awe and scale that’s hard to describe with words and impossible to capture on camera. There’s truly so much beauty everywhere you look in Norway.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader Åshild was amazing. She’s very down to earth and by the end of the trip felt like family. I forgot my jacket at our kayaking excursion towards the end of the trip, and she was able to contact them and worked with our shuttle driver to swing by to we could pick it up! Truly a life saver! Her suggestions were also amazing. Like going swimming in the fjord at Sveggvika or trying Brown Cheese at the breakfast buffet on our first morning.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pack for different kinds of weather! The forecast can change pretty quickly so it is good to be prepared!

Signature Norway | Where Fjords Meet Sky

The information on the website was clear and both the Sales Specialist and the Customer Operations Specialist were both very knowledgeable and helpful in booking the trip. Our local guide Ashild was excellent, as were all the people we encountered at various tours and hotel stays. The locations, venues and excursions were all excellent. Everything went smoothly and make for a relaxing enjoyable trip

Most Inspirational Moment

The Clipfish Fish House Hotel, cooking class and sharing a meal together, the 2 fjord trips of kayaking and RIB boat. The meals were all delicious. Most especially the people, our guide, the driver, the local people who gave us a tour of the cider farm, the museums. Everyone we met was so warm and friendly which really made the trip most special. I felt like we not only saw Norway, rather experienced it through both what we saw and the people we met.

Thoughts on Group Leader

She was amazing! Very professional and mature as well as very kind and warm and generally concerned about each of the members on the trip. Very clear in communicating instructions regarding the itinerary for the day ensuring everything went smoothly.

Delights of Sicily

Have fun cycling in the sun! Warm on the bike but you will be rewarded with great food, Sicilian culture and a lot of smiles/good company.

Most Inspirational Moment

Eating the best pizza I have ever tasted in my life!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Davide is passionate about his home region and loves to show it off at its best. A huge mention too for Sebi, our support driver, who communicated through smiles and kindness.

Advice for Potential Travellers

The cycling, whilst not being too long, was hilly at times and in the Sicilian heat could be draining, particularly on the hilly days. Consider an e-bike if you are unsure of your ability. It certainly assisted one or 2 in our group at times and a bit of cycling before coming out might assist. Cycle shoes and cleats helped me though beware, the heat destroyed my shoes and they are fit only for the bin. You'll be rewarded though with a real insight into Sicilian culture, some fabulous dining and stunning locations. I stopped over a couple of nights in Catania at the start and a night in Syracuse at the end, both of which were fun (especially the boat trip at the latter). Bus connections to both destinations are fairly easy and there is plenty of accommodation on Booking.com.

Exceptional

Advice for Potential Travellers

Breakfast were a little limited so bringing a favourite cereal from home might be a winner . Vegetarian options were limited ..

Norway? Yes way!

I had such an awesome time on this trip with my fam! There was so much do do and see every day, and the trip was a perfect amount of activity as I was about 7 months recovered from a hip surgery. The fjords unesco site and the fish factory hotel were great highlights, as well as an authentic Viking dinner. And our guide Åshild was amazing, so good at keeping us organized and so fun to hang out with! Definitely a great way to experience Norway!

Most Inspirational Moment

jumping in the sea for a cold plunge and sauna , and then afterwards making a traditional Norwegian dinner, Bacalao, with our host Thomas! The setting was beautiful, with the rustic and wind swept fish factory hotel that was lapped by the waves of the sea. Ask for the “Crave Cave” local beer brewer!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Åshild was amazing! Had everything taken care of to the letter, and was so fun to hang around and joke with. She is also from a very cool and very remote part of Norway - ask her about it! It felt like hanging out with a long lost cousin.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pack for all types of weather! The fjords are finicky and change from sunny to rainy on a dime! Be ready for rain!

Bosnia and Beyond

Excellent trip with very good guides and driver. Have travelled many times with Exodus and regularly encourage friends to look at Exodus Holidays and Trips. There is a trip available for most people, excellent variety of choice.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visiting 3x different Balkan Countries, Bosnia, Croatia and Montenegro. Visiting Sarajevo, Lukomir village. Kotor and Zabljack. Not forgetting Mostar and Dubrovnik.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent throughout. Really enthusiastic about his country ( Bosnia) and passionate about the landscape,people,food etc. He gave a really passionate summary of the complexities involved with the history of the places visited. Very optimistic about the future of the Balkan Countries and people.

Borneo Wildlife Discoverer

I always find Exodus guides to go beyond expectation to try and find us the best experiences they can

Most Inspirational Moment

Bears, orangutans, elephants and all the other wildlife too many highlights to narrow down. And a fantastic group of people

Thoughts on Group Leader

Both our leaders were amazing both very knowledgeable and happy to share all their knowledge I always find Exodus guides to go beyond expectation to try and find us the best experiences they can
