Discover Marrakech & the Sahara

The extension of Morocco landscapes, ranging from city of Marrakesh, Sahara Desert, Canyon and the valley are so impressive. I specially love the idea of immersive experience of local life, including eating at local families, hamman experience at a local village and participating into the charities to benefit local people. The theme of charity and helping local community makes the trip more meaningful and more authentic experiences we had.

Most Inspirational Moment

The camel ride along Sahara Desert, the beauty of the canyon and the fun our tour guide, Jawad Oua in bringing everyone together throughout the car journeys.

Thoughts on Group Leader

I was very appreciated for his perseverance in helping my search for my sunglasses at the shop where we could wear local dresses for photo taking. Even under the scorching sun for the search for more than 30 minutes, he finally helped me to find my lost sunglasses. And I really like his cheerful character and good social skills in bringing all of us into good companionship. And he always worked hard to meet different requests from the group mates. And I can sense he really enjoyed the pride and

Estonia to Finland Adventure

Maybe better description of mix of culture and walking to help expectations. Good way to see the two cities and get a handle on some of the culture.

Most Inspirational Moment

Exploring Tallinn (walking) and Helsinki city tours including the fort (public transport)

Thoughts on Group Leader

Excellent language skills

Discover Croatia

I thoroughly enjoyed the trip. Croatia was beautiful, our leader very caring, the group very friendly.

Most Inspirational Moment

The national parks were great, particularly Krka with its shady walks and wildlife - both were incredible. All the old towns were amazing. I particularly enjoyed seeing Diocletian's Palace = found that very interesting - and liked the town of Split (plus the very nice hotel there - the nightingale singing in the trees was a bonus for several of us!). Really enjoyed visiting the family with their herb garden. Finally arriving at Dubrovnik was a lovely way to end the trip = I'd heard so much about it and it lived up my expectations. And I enjoyed my half-day on Lokrum island too. I loved the sun and blue sea! I was struck with how clean everywhere was.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Vanja was a great organiser and, also, lots of fun. She is a genuinely caring person. I felt safe with her in charge. I felt safe generally throughout the trip - that everything would go well - but, also, I have a food intolerance and, while looking after the whole group, she always made sure I had something nice to eat while dining with everyone. Vanja clearly loves Croatia and she inspired us with her enthusiasm. We laughed a great deal during the trip. I have been on several small group tours in the past, which I have enjoyed - but I feel that Vanja is an exceptional leader. She was like an incredibly well-organised friend.

Cycling Puglia & Matera

Exodus is well organized. I can depend on accommodations to be good quality. I can count on head guide to be knowledgeable. This was my second trip with Exodus. So I know from experience Exodus trips are well designed. I am planning a third trip with Exodus for next year.

Most Inspirational Moment

Going through the Italian country side and really seeing the country. We stayed at two different Masserias. These were amazing.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Leo is a fantastic athlete. An inspiration.

Fantastic trip in Vietnam!

This was a really incredible trip! From North to South you get to see the ins-and-outs of this beautiful country, the beautiful sights, the friendly people and the tasty food! I feel that it was the perfect duration for the locations visited – I didn’t feel rushed on any days but also don’t feel that we were roaming around aimlessly at any point! Just an action packed trip from start to finish and one that I would definitely recommend to anyone who is thinking about going for it… you won’t regret it!

Most Inspirational Moment

The most inspiring moment for me was the home-stay visit at Xom Chien village. It's a very tranquil stay, you are right in the beautiful country side and rice fields, and are welcomed and hosted by the very friendly community in this village. The locals are very generous and friendly and are excited to welcome you to their home. This homestay being right near the start of the trip is a very good bit of trip planning as it allows you to slow down, take in the scenery and the culture and really unwind and start your holiday in a refreshed mind state.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Toan was an amazing guide! He was fun, friendly, funny and knew just about everything there was to know about his country! He provided such a deep knowledge on the history and culture of the areas we passed through and also helped us to learn some of the local language to help us communicate with the locals better. Just a really great guide to spend your 2 weeks with!

Advice for Potential Travellers

Depending on what time of the year you travel, bring fewer/lighter clothes than you're planning, it's hotter than I expected! Also bring some thin but warm layers for the overnight train. I personally didn't get very cold, but some of my fellow travelers were quite cold through the night.

Highlights of the Amalfi Coast

The trip was amazing I think bc there was a great balance between freedom to explore and guided walks. Our guide, Veriano, was quality the entire trip. He made excellent suggestions, kept our whole group on time & informed, and kept himself available to us through the entire trip. It was simply amazing. I’ve already recommended Exodus to friends and family. We are also actively looking to book our next Exodus trip soon.

Most Inspirational Moment

Veriano made the trip. Revello was my favorite outing but it was all amazing.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Veriano was awesome and he really wanted to make sure we had our seatbelts on.

Walking The Amalfi Coast

My experience was excellent, from my initial request through to the end of the trip. Your staff communicated well and clearly, I felt prepared for my trip, and the trip itself was terrific — very comfortable hotel, great guide, hikes and other experiences well organized and really fun,

Most Inspirational Moment

Our hike along the Path of the Gods and the visit to Mount Vesuvius.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Nico was terrific — communicated very clearly, responded quickly to questions on our WhatsApp group, led our hikes carefully, ensured we were all safe and comfortable, and provided a wealth of information about what we were seeing and doing. He had helpful suggestions for activities and places to visit that he wasn’t directly leading, and made sure we knew what to expect every day. He’s also funny and sociable.

Highlights of Ancient Greece

Varied scenery, good pace, excellent guide

Most Inspirational Moment

Fantastic tour guide Great group of travellers Everywhere we visited was of interest

Thoughts on Group Leader

Georgios shared his vast knowledge very sensitively, he told the history through stories, appropriate length to sustain interest, showed us very clear pictures of how the buildings would have looked when they were first built. All this helped bring the ancient history alive. He was thoughtful throughout, moving at a pace to suit everyone, stopping regularly and choosing shade for the stops. If he (rarely) didn't know the answer to a question he would research and provide the answer later.

Southern Africa Safari: Kruger & Mozambique

The guide Petro was brilliant and the driver and safari guides were very knowlegeable. We saw a wide range of wildlife. Transport in the small bus made it very comfortable.

Most Inspirational Moment

Hluhluwe imfolozi Park

Thoughts on Group Leader

Petro was an excellent guide in every way. I cannot fault her. She was very much a part of the group and was extremely knowledgeable.

Machu Picchu & Galapagos

It was a great idea to combine a trip to Cusco/ Machu Picchu with one to the Galapagos- it feels like I’ve been on two distinct holidays. Both were outstanding and rich experiences. We saw an incredible amount in the time and were expertly guided by Holger in Peru and Richard in the Galapagos.

Most Inspirational Moment

So many. The Inca Trail trek was amazing, challenging enough but very enjoyable. There had been a mudslide and we had to rerouter to KM106 but all was well-managed. Circuit 3 is a great tour of Machu Picchu- possibly better than Circuit 2. I had high expectations of what I'd see in the Galapagos, but these were exceeded. Thank you!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Holger- warm, calm and patient; highly organised and extremely knowledgeable; humorous, emotionally intelligent and supportive. Holger put in a huge effort to ensure everyone had the best experience they could. Attention to detail- he checked everyone's oxygen levels to monitor how we acclimatised to the altitude. Ensured everyone had great photos of Machu Picchu- he knows the best spots/ techniques. He worked tirelessly on his nights off to take people to the best coffee shops. A wonderful Exodus guide. Richard-hugely knowledgeable about the Galapagos flora and fauna; appears relaxed but is highly organised behind the scenes; huge attention paid to safety while snorkelling- people of all confidence levels were well supported; with him, we travelled as welcomed guests. Any problems were quickly solved (eg- one of my rooms had a mechanical fault; one person needed a different mask.) Richard also took lots of high quality photos/ videos for us so that we could enjoy simply being with the wildlife, if we chose to. Both were wonderful guides!
