An Unknown Country

There are very few British tourists visiting this lovely country and this Exodus trip was a good way of understanding the Past and the Present state of Korea. A visit to the DMZ gives you an understanding of the conflict between the South and the North.
The gardens and ordinary road-side trees are beautiful and the people are charming. There was absolutely no hassle from the local people or officials.

Most Inspirational Moment

Although uncomfortable by our standards, the Temple Stay was inspirational and an eye opener. We lived the life of a monk (but only for one night!) well away from the electronic world of some parts of Korea.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Minhe Kim was a petite and charming girl with an infectious and rather cheeky smile which made up for any shortcomings on her part.

Advice for Potential Travellers

This is a rather hectic trip involving two internal flights and walking tours as well as optional hikes. So make sure that you are reasonably fit and that your shoes are comfortable but sturdy.

Beautiful walks in a remote part of Bulgaria

It was a very enjoyable trip in a remote part of the country. I didn’t hear about Rodopi mountains before so didn’t know what to expect. The scenery is absolutely stunning – mountains, forests, gorges, caves – all so untouched and beautiful! I enjoyed all the walks and we never saw any other walkers – it was amazing to have it all just to ourselves. We also had a chance to see how local people live. It was a nice, relaxing week and the group bonded pretty quickly!

Most Inspirational Moment

It is difficult to choose one moment as the whole trip was so beautiful. But I really enjoyed Sveti Ilia hike, the views were breathtaking and we even managed to see some wall creepers!

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our leader was great, very informative and knew the area really well. Nothing was too much trouble, she was always willing to help. It was easy to see that she was passionate about what she does and that she really enjoys showing her country to foreign visitors.

Advice for Potential Travellers

You might want to bring a lunch box with you. And don't forget a sunscreen!

Kilimanjaro - Lemosho route

This is one of those experiences that will stay with you for the rest of your life!
To stand on top of the worlds highest freestanding mountain and know that you did it on your own steam is a fantastic feeling.

Most Inspirational Moment

waking up in the morning , opening the tent flap and watching the sunrise and the clouds far below you

Thoughts on Group Leader

I want to thank our chief guide , Mekeke. and the other guides for all of their help over the trip. Without their experience, humour, knowledge and encouragement we would not have all made it to the top.

Advice for Potential Travellers

If you are of average fitness, and you want to, you can do this, and you wont regret it! It,s easy for me to preach now that I have done it , but I was concerned that i wasnt fit enough, or I was going to suffer from altitude sickness , but there was only one way I was going to find out. do plenty of walking beforehand, follow the packing lists on this site , and trust your guides to look after you !

Great Vacation

My wife and I have traveled 6 times to Europe from the US and this was one of the most relaxing vacation we have ever taken. The tour was well planned and coordinated.

Most Inspirational Moment

The day trip to Seville and the Flamenco show scheduled with the assistance of the tour leader.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Alexis was fantastic! He was very knowledgeable about the area and very informative. His customer services skills are the best. Alexis made the entire group feel welcome and facilitated interaction between all the group members.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Pack good hiking shoes or boots.

Fantastic trip

Almost every day was a highlight . Yes, there were long days and long bus rides but they absolutely worth it to get up at 4 am to see the scenery outside the window of the moving bus

Most Inspirational Moment

Machu Picchu is an obvious choice, the place is overwhelming. But also Nasca lines, Amantani Island or condors gliding over Colca Canyon...

Thoughts on Group Leader

Raul was a charming bundle of energy, always smiling always in good humour. Very effective in dealing with every day tasks as well as with emergencies, big and small. Would recommend great food, markets, places to see. He was a big part in the success of the trip

Most Inspirational Moment

The visit to Hiroshima. It made me think a great deal about politics and war. The shrines and temples were inspirational in a very different, and beautiful way.

Chiko was really great. She went above and beyond to ensure we all had a great experience.

Walking the Amalfi Coast in October

A leisurely and enjoyable break with a well balanced mix of walking, sightseeing and enjoying the views.

Most Inspirational Moment

Inspiration is a little strong for this trip. There were many enjoyable moments, Herculaneum, Pompeii, Vesuvius and the wonderful views along the coast. The moment that will stay in the mind is the view from the café in Villa Cimbrone.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Eric was very enthusiastic about this trip and was always eager to stop and point out views or matters of interest. He was helpful in organising activities and meals on our free day and seemed to enjoy the trip as much as we did.

Advice for Potential Travellers

Think carefully about what you take. For us, walking poles and boots (even 2 season) were a little OTT and we could have managed very well with approach shoes. Whilst walking kit and rucksack was fine whilst on the trail when we reached some of our destinations we did feel a little scruffy and out of place.

Most Inspirational Moment

Thoughts on Group Leader

Our group leader, Colly, and his assistants were excellent. They were patient and knowledgeable. It was great to witness young men with such a passion for their surroundings.

Advice for Potential Travellers

My only reservation is that I didn't get to the ladders on The Sentinel climb. My advice is to NOT LOOK DOWN at the exposed sections (I didn't do this). Your leaders will make sure you are safe the whole way.
