Best of Sri Lanka

It exceeded our expectations.

The tour was fantastic, great group of people. The tour guide Mak went above and beyond our expectations. He was informative, fun, caring and gave us a real insight into the culture, people and had a vast knowledge of each place we visited. He went out of his way to make my birthday special whilst we were on the trip, and always ensured we were organised and happy. Fantastic trip all round.

Most Inspirational Moment

The bicycle ride and lunch with the family was fantastic.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mak was fantastic. He is a great asset to Exodus, knowledgeable, caring, funny and so passionate about sharing his country and vast knowledge with us. He made a great trip so memorable. We cannot thank him enough for his contribution to our holiday.

Best of Sri Lanka

A lovely week with good hotels – my first ‘adventure’ holiday and as a solo traveller. The cycling day is great for viewing the countryside and getting nearer to rural communities, elephants in the wild (and sometimes on the main roads) including a rarer tusker and a baby, temples enriched by insightul explanations of customs from our guide, climbing the Sigiriya rock was strenuous but paced with good railings for support, interesting tea-growing and processing, The Grade 3 white-water rafting is definitely worth doing and not that scary though you need to be mobile to descend the steps to the river. Good food, if spicy, though Sanjeewa was a helpful guide on how spicy!

Very straightforward booking, direct communication by phone and email, easy arrangement of pre-tour hotel to fit with my prior commitments in Sri Lanka. Very interesting tour, nicely challenging for my inexperience of such trips, helped by being in a small and friendly group. Our guide, Sanjeewa, was a really great guide – very knowledgeable and professional but always there to support us with a good sense of humour too. Felt very safe throughout and very careful driving from Donald.

Most Inspirational Moment

All of it as a whole was great and really enjoyable. Suited me very well as a first adventure holiday but I liked the blend of cultural interest and mild physical challenges with opportunity to see the wider country and landscapes beyond the urban.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sanjeewa was a great guide and blended very well with our group whilst maintaining professionalism throughout. He was definitely a major contributor to my enjoyment of the tour and certainly to my learning about Sri Lanka and its culture. He answered all our questions about the country and was clearly very competent. He provided realistic expectations for the physical challenges so we knew in considerable detail what to expect. Sanjeewa is a great asset to the Exodus team in Sri Lanka.

The whole holiday was incredible and jam packed we didn’t stop and that’s why we love travelling with Exodus

Most Inspirational Moment

Our tour guide and the people we travelled with

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mak was polite, hard working organised and delightful. His passion and knowledge of his country was wonderful and he wanted to share so much of it in such a short time. We all felt safe travelling with him and he went above and beyond to make our stay in Sri Lanka special.

Best of Sri Lanka

Well organised, the guides were knowledgeable and friendly. The experiences on the trip were great.

Most Inspirational Moment

Each day offered something new and exciting, but my highlight was the cycling through the villages and the meal delivered at the homestead. It felt ‘off the beaten track’.

Thoughts on Group Leader

The tour guide, Mak and his support team (driver and assistant) were excellent. Could not have been helpful and friendly. Mak’s passion for his country was so evident and his desire to give everyone on the trip a great experience was clear. Mak, was kind, caring, considerate and extremely knowledgeable.

A flavour of Oman in a week

Excellent tour leader. Great tour to introduce us to Oman, its culture and wonderful sites. Would have been more comfortable in a bigger bus. This along with the hotel to airport transfer failing to turn-up loses a star on my rating.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visiting the Grand Mosque

Thoughts on Group Leader

Marvellous, good organiser, approachable and knew how to phrase options in a way to get the response that was wanted

Discover Costa Rica

Excellent holiday! A varied agenda. Good hotels and lodges. Daniel our tour leader was knowledgeable and well organised and our boat driver Primo and our coach driver Manuelito (?) were very good.

Most Inspirational Moment

Tortuguero and Esquinas were amazing places. But all our hotels and lodges had beautiful gardens. Seeing two quetzals in Savegre was a bonus. Also the large variety of birds, monkeys, amphibians and of course sloths definitely met and went beyond our expectations

Thoughts on Group Leader

One of the best tour leaders of any holiday I have been on (and I’ve been on many). Daniel was pleasant, well organised and made a real effort to accommodate people when they needed ATM’s, etc. Daniel set up a WhatsApp group to include us all and sent out detailed itineraries every evening for the next day. He also had a great deal of knowledge regarding Costa Rica, its history, politics etc and also the wild life. Important as that is why most of us were there.

Walking in North Cyprus

It was our first time with Exodus. We really enjoyed the trip. The customer service ahead was very helpful, the location was really interesting and the guide and group worked well for us

Most Inspirational Moment

St Hilarion, Kantara and Buffavento were great. We also enjoyed the trip to Varosha and Famagusta.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Gizer was great. Gave interesting perspectives on the current situation in Cyprus.
