Our guide was excellent in all respects and gave us a most wonderful introduction to Marrakech, the mountains, villages, culture and the mountain walking. Thank you for a wonderful holiday.
Most Inspirational Moment
Our guide-Mohammed exuded a quiet confidence, was respectful and accommodated the needs of the group very well. Nothing was too much trouble for him and he was generous and gave us a special introduction to village life.
Thoughts on Group Leader
My commentary thus far reflects the special role that our guide played in making this trip so enjoyable. Mohamed is a very gifted individual, a respectful leader, good humoured and highly skilled in managing people, the environment and all the logistics eg water. He is very caring and knowledgeable about all things Morocco and the Amazi people and culture. It was an honour to spend this time with him and his village. He is a special asset for such work.

Thoughts on Group Leader
Sujee was a fantastic tour leader. I really appreciated his knowledge of and love for his country. I learned a lot. He always kept us informed about what was happening each day and the timetable. He was informative, helpful, well organised and kept us to the timetable. He was consistently pleasant to deal with.
Our Exodus trips always have a good itinerary and excellent guides. The villages and Mountains of Evia was perfectly lead by George (Yorgos)
Most Inspirational Moment
The people, Yorgos, fellow travelers and the lovely hotel staff. An extra highlight being there for the orthodox Easter celebrations, parades and fireworks.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Yorgos was an excellent leader and guide. I can not praise him enough. Excellent knowledge, excellent interpersonal skills, friendly, professional, great sense of humour and really understood the needs of the group and each individual.
Amazing and varied trip, fantastic guide and brilliant culture!

Thoughts on Group Leader
He was fantastic, I have done many Exodus trips and he is the best! He gave 100% to our group and supported us to have an amazing experience. His hard work needs recognition and I have nominated him for leader of the year.
Was on the Treasures of Morocco trip in March – April 2026 and I really enjoyed the accommodations, our tour guide Abdellah was extremely nice, knowledgeable and caring. Exodus made our trip extremely enjoyable and I would highly recommend to others.
Most Inspirational Moment
The entire trip was one big highlight
Thoughts on Group Leader
Abdellah was extremely knowledgeable, caring and responsible. Always fostered an enjoyable atmosphere. He himself made our trip that much more enjoyable.
Abdellah was a very good leader who took care to organise our travelling, accommodation and experiences so everything went smoothly. We covered so much of Morocco in 10 days, and experienced many key sites and activities and learnt about the culture and lived experiences of Moroccans.
Most Inspirational Moment
Highlights included: Camel ride in the desert Hassan II mosque in Casablanca Cookery course in Marrakesh Fes Medina and lunch Drive to Merzouga with mountain and valley views Oasis visit and 'medfouna' lunch Abdellah our guide Omar our bus driver was excellent Our group of 16 mixed ages got on really well.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Abdellah was a good leader. Very organised but able to be flexible. Looked after us all as individuals.
We love exodus holidays. The guides are normally well chosen and work hard to ensure you have an enjoyable experience.
The walks were on good paths but the ascents made them hard but but doable and were chosen for the spectacular views. They were breathtaking and well worth the effort.
Thoughts on Group Leader
He was very sociable but also took pains to ensure any other needs we wanted from the holiday were met. I told him I'd also like to practice speaking Spanish as I am a learner an he and Javier made time to do that. I very much appreciated that.
Maybe you have been to Tokyo, Osaka and Kyoto and come home loving Japan but feeling you have missed the natural beauty and any sense of the real Japan away from tourist attractions. Or maybe, you have always wanted to visit but don’t like crowds and regimented itineraries. If so, this trip is for you.
We explored a quieter area of Japan at ground level, on buses, trams, local and fast trains, ferry and yes, on foot and by bicycle. Some days were challenging, so it’s definitely for those who love an active life. But other days were fascinating, charming and awe-inspiring as we walked in the footsteps of princesses and warriors (wear socks!) and saw Mother Nature’s raw volcanic power up close (bring sturdy shoes).
There’s a lot of travelling on this trip, but the landscapes are so lovely I finally understood the old maxim – better to travel than to arrive.
Most Inspirational Moment
Walking around Setoda town on Ikuchi island looking at deserted temple sites and watching the sun going down over the Inland Sea we had cycled across earlier in the day. The perfect end to a fun day.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Ayako was a super ambassador for Japan, as well as a really well organised tour leader. She went out of her way to help us with dinner and activity recommendations so we enjoyed our free time to the fullest. She also kept us to schedule on and off all that transport and gave us confidence to explore on our own. I really enjoyed the little history talks she gave us, and appreciated the time she must have put in to research them for us.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Unless you're a v regular cyclist, consider an ebike for the Kaido cycle. It makes short work of the steep hills up to the bridges, and you can always switch the motor off for the rest of the ride.
I'm not a cyclist, but even I absolutely loved crossing the long high and wide bridges slung across the islands. Unmissable.
