Slick, professional and was always very helpful if asked for anything. Always made sure we were altogether whether cycling or walking and safely navigated us in the cities and crossing roads
What a wonderful country! The food. The people, the environment! Just stunning! Just had 2 weeks with the exodus tour , our guide Roshan was exceptional! This is the 2nd exodus tour I’ve done and it didn’t disappoint. So much was packed in to the itinerary. The accommodation in the main was excellent. Def do all the extra bits and the white water rafting level 3 should not be missed! Im in my 60s and i loved it! I would absolutely recommend this trip.

Def do the extras that are offered and absolutely follow the advice of your guide especially in places that are crowded. Apparently sri lankans dont que!
Exceeded my expectations. This is the second trip I have taken with Exodus and both have been excellent
Most Inspirational Moment
Hiking in the High Atlas and being fed by families in their own homes
Thoughts on Group Leader
Very knowledgeable, good sense of humour and took good care of us. Very helpful and gave us good advice when buying things in the Medina or from roadside stalls. As the oldest in the group I felt looked after
Very well planned, with lots of enjoyable activities. The online information about the tour was excellent, as was the customer service and booking process. The tour itself was very enjoyable, and the guide was excellent.
Most Inspirational Moment
Beatles ashram in Rishikesh, Viceregal Lodge in Shimla, walks around Naddi & Rakkh villages, Dharamshala cricket ground, visit to village house and farm near Amritsar, folk music at Rakkh resort, Golden Temple kitchens in Amritsar, hilltop temple in Shimla.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Piyush was an exceptional guide. He was really friendly, always upbeat and cheerful, and extremely efficient. He dealt swiftly and effectively with the inevitable problems along the way; for example on the first morning at Delhi rail station our coach got stuck in a huge chaotic traffic jam, and Piyush sorted it all out very quickly.
Established and well thought through tour of a beautiful desert with spectacular night skys.
Accurate depiction of comfort and difficultly levels, comfort level was possible a bit better than expected given the tents were always assembled and taken down by the support staff and the portable chemical toilet worked well.
Everything ran on time, we weren’t super fast, I was in fact the slowest of the group (my pre trek training disrupted unfortunately) however we still made good time (if you can do several back to back 20 minute miles on a treadmill and have good balance you should be fine).
Several kinds of desert flowers were in bloom, Argan trees and Thyme were abundant.
Most Inspirational Moment
There were lots of amazing views. The ascent of Jebel Aklim was a highlight as was the long rest and beautiful 360 degree views (warm weather and good food). Night sky too.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Lahcen was superb. Team was very tightly knit and respected eachother. Everything ran like clockwork. Plenty of information when we needed it, and no OTT extra information when we were enjoying the scenery.
Advice for Potential Travellers
This trip is special, I have done a 5 day trek in the High Atlas mountains (including Toubkal), and I found this was more interesting and apart from the summit of Toubkal far more varied and colourful. If you are solo it's well worth the extra for Single Accomodation.
A week of new and unforgettable experiences in the Finnish wilderness. Stunning landscapes and scenery.
Most Inspirational Moment
The lake ice plunge / sauna experience was really special even if you have done cold water swimming before. Waking up in the morning in a quinzee we built ourselves having survived a night in -25c!
Thoughts on Group Leader
Joonas and Tuomas were both really knowledgeable and helpful. Both native Finns, experienced in all the activities and good at teaching us new skills. Trip was well organised and they gave clear instructions. Everything ran smoothly and on time.
Advice for Potential Travellers
While at Base Camp, only base layers, swimwear and casual wear for evenings is required. Crocs or simliar are useful for sauna trips & popping to the restaurant. Make the most of opportunities to try new experiences. Food was all home cooked native fare and good portions. Amazing soups!
The trip was so expertly arranged. Our guide Tung was so knowledgeable, helpful, friendly and professional. Also the support team were excellent – Can, Nik and Dat. Wonderful team and did so many activities on top of the cycling. Absolutely wonderful. Felt we saw and experienced some of the true Vietnam along with other tourist areas.
Most Inspirational Moment
Cycling, understanding more on Vietnam's history and experiencing some of the real Vietnam. Felt safe and well supported throughout.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Tung was so knowledgeable and informative. He made the trip feel so special and unique to us. Also led with such ease.
The holiday was amazing and very well run by Johnny. Johnny has extensive knowledge of the animals, birds, geography and history. It showed Costa Rica at it best.
Most Inspirational Moment
Seeing the sloths and humming birds.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Johnny was extremely helpful, knowledgeable and very good in a crisis when one of our party was ill. His time keeping was excellent and he always made the outing interesting and full of sightings of wildlife. He added details about the history and geography of the different areas.
Very well organised activities, good information, perfect facilities.
Most Inspirational Moment
I loved learning the new skills: snowshoeing and cross-country skiing. I was able to use them by myself in the second half of the week which was exhilarating. I absolutely loved dog sledding.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Tuomas is the perfect leader. He is calm and personable, knowledgeable and interesting without being imposing. Always helpful and always available to assist.
A great way to see a number of sites and cities in a relatively short period of time. Excellent trip , managed efficiently and professionally from start to finish.
Most Inspirational Moment
Taj Mahal. Tiger sighting etc.

Endlessly enthusiastic and professional. A credit to Exodus and India
