Rolling grape vines

What a fabulous trip. Great food, incredible walks and plenty of original Prosecco with the most amazing company.

Most Inspirational Moment

Walking up hill then finally seeing the view opening to see the snow capped dolomites.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Michele was an exceptional leader with great local knowledge and connections. Nothing was too much trouble. We enjoyed his company immensely and even forwarded him for leader of the year award.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Take some warm clothes just in case.

What a fabulous experience!

I had never joined a group activity or trip like this before but immediately felt at ease with everyone when we all met. This was largely due to the extremely welcoming attitude and manner of our great guides Miguel, and his highly trusted driver / bike mechanic and co-guide. They worked tirelessly and extremely well together to make this a very highly memorable trip for us all. I had never visited Catalonia before and wanted a mix of good cycling around the area, some basic tourism and the opportunity to experience a range of different Catalan landscapes with some good food and company. I am happy to say that the trip exceeded all my expectations in every way. All the hotel accommodation and hospitality of their staff was excellent, and helped to provide us with a great (and stress-free) holiday experience.

Most Inspirational Moment

I loved the constantly changing landscapes we experienced – passing through medieval villages, quiet countryside lanes, the stunning coastal villages and Besalu was an excellent destination to finish the trip. I think a lot of thought had clearly been put into planning the route very carefully.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Miguel is truly an outstanding guide and really made the trip a perfect experience. He is very skilled at working with a group of people from diverse backgrounds, since he has a very easy, approachable, highly inclusive and friendly manner, while always maintaining his sense of professionalism. His English is also excellent! Miguel's passion for Catalonia, outdoors activities and his wish to ensure that everyone enjoyed themselves in a safe, relaxed and fun way was inspiring. I also really enjoyed his knowledge of the local history, gastronomy, wildlife and his enthusiasm to share this with us. It really helped to make the trip memorable. All the daily logistics were handled with care and thoughtfully - the one 'traveller emergency' we had was dealt with calmly and professionally.

Advice for Potential Travellers

It’s not a cheap trip certainly, but I felt it was well worth it in every way as a special treat for myself. I felt that I was well supported by Exodus staff before embarking on the holiday, since they answered my email queries well, without delay and they made the pre-holiday admin all very easy. It was a great introduction to a beautiful part of Spain and as well as learning a huge amount about the area, I loved the cycling, company of everyone and have some very fond memories of the holiday.

Walk the Prosecco Hills & Hidden Venice

A very good level 2 trip. A mix of walking and seeing the surrounding countryside, site seeing, local cuisine and down time. Comfortable hotel. Excellent guide

Most Inspirational Moment

Walks. Cuisine and Wines. Hidden Venice

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mattia was an excellent leader. He coped very well with a group of 8 females and the personalities within the group! He was very relaxed, observant, sociable, understanding, helpful, diligent, reliable all with a good sense of humour. He led the group very well

Porto to Lisbon Atlantic Ride

It was all very well organised and the guide was excellent. Great knowledge. Genuine local flavour to it all. Route was well chosen. Food was very good with the odd exception.

A really nice guy who did an excellent job of keeping us together and enjoying. Great local knowledge. Worth his weight in gold!

Hike Spain's Sierra de Aitana

My 9th trip with Exodus and as always the guide was brilliant, José was extremely knowledgeable about the local area, always sharing really interesting facts. He adapted the walks to the hot weather to ensure we were able to enjoy the scenery and made us the most delicious lunches every day. The accommodation was fantastic, a lovely clean and comfortable room with a lovely room. Every night we had delicious authentic Spanish food and then enjoyed the evening sunshine on the terrace.

Most Inspirational Moment

Our brilliant guide José, he was so knowledgeable about the area and makes the best lunches! The accommodation was fantastic, clean and comfortable room with lovely views and delicious food every night

Thoughts on Group Leader

José was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, fun and supportive.

The Silk Road

Once again, a great holiday! Itinerary was strong, wonderful places to visit, a fab mix of accommodations and simply exceptional tour guides! Some of the best for sure I have had. A huge thank you to both Vitaliy and Dilshood for their exceptional knowledge, patience, openness and sense of fun! A treat to have Alex Morris from Exodus along with us too – great fun and very open to feedback, and putting up with a bunch of oldies!

Most Inspirational Moment

The guides! Both Vitaliy and Dilshod were exceptional. And the countries we visited breathtaking.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Exceptional and some of the best we have had!

Walking Northern Tuscany

Overall experience was fantastic! The trip notes were more accurate than the grade level wrt difficulty

Most Inspirational Moment

The biggest highlight was our guide Sara! Truly knowledgeable and always positive and engaging. The mountain scenery was spectacular

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sara is truly knowledgeable of the area! She was always thoughtful, encouraging and caring! Truly first rate!!

Porto to Lisbon Atlantic Ride

The trip was guided so professionally by Joao Carolina and Rodrigo. We were so well cared for and blessed with good weather. The accommodation was good throughout and we had some excellent catering.

Most Inspirational Moment

The scenery, the picnics arranged by the leading team and the visit to Lisbon.

Thoughts on Group Leader

He was so professional throughout. His daily briefings to inform us of what to expect on each days ride were interesting and thorough. Joao was fun, enthusiastic, caring and very knowledgeable about the area and the environment generally. His restaurant suggestions were good.

Wonderful

Fast moving trip covering many Peru highlights. Excellent Guide (Renzo) kept us well informed, able to access elements of Peruvian culture which would have been difficult without him, and safe. Safe primarily with regard to altitude which is a significant consideration for this trip and most of it operates over 3000m and tops out at 4900ms.

Most Inspirational Moment

Colca Canyon seeing the Condors. I hadn't expected the wildlife to such a feature of this trip which I had taken mainly for the scenery. But seeing Llamas, Flamingos, Penguins and much more in the wild was surprisingly moving.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Fabulous!

Advice for Potential Travellers

A lot of time in the bus, which is brilliant for the views, but I would be cautious if you suffer with travel sickness. The roads are bendy and in places, bumpy. Machu Picchu is not the highest spot on the trip.

Highlights of Albania

Well organised, great leader and driver, small group, we saw so much!

Most Inspirational Moment

Beautiful Kruje, our guide Edjon who was so good, funny and brought us all together, great ruins to explore

Thoughts on Group Leader

Edjon was excellent. He really looked after us well - carrying luggage, helping the older members of the group over the cobblestones, telling us what shoes to wear! He told us so much about Albania and its history. Suggested places to eat which were very good.
