Dream-like trip totally incredible!

This has been an amazing trip, can’t recommend it enough, especially if this is your first trip to India, it’s a great introduction to get your bearings. Our trip was nine days and we covered a large geographical area in a relatively short space of time to see the sights in Delhi, Jaipur, Ranthamborne, Agra and Varanasi. To do this we travelled in a private minibus which was really comfortable and also took the public train to Varanasi and Delhi, the train was also really comfortable, spacious and clean , we also had a couple of small boat trips along the Ganges which were really special, so there was a good mix of transport it wasn’t all minibus. The sights you see on this trip are stunning, and there are just so many to see. This is a busy trip but that’s the beauty of it, you will get to see so much. The hotels we stayed in were of varying standards but mostly very good: Jaipur, Agra, Ranthamborne and Varanasi Hotels were all great and the breakfasts and evening meals in those hotels were really very good indeed. We were taken to some fabulous restaurants to eat in the evenings and the food everywhere we went was delicious and we didn’t worry about what we were eating as every place we ate at had been vetted by our excellent tour guide leader. The group we travelled with were so much fun, we all became good friends by the end.

Most Inspirational Moment

The Taj Mahal was impressive, it really is as beautiful as it looks in pictures but is so iconic you can't believe you are there! The chance to cook an Indian meal with a family was really special, the couple were so warm and welcoming and we made great food that we all got to eat together after. The visit to a Hindu Temple to watch a devotional ceremony was so uplifting and will stay with me forever. My favourite place was Varanasi, there is such a great buzz of energy here, watching the world go by on the Ganges was extra special.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Have to say a great big thank you to our Group Leader Manu who was absolutely excellent at his job. He took great care of us all on this trip. He was always warm, friendly, approachable, happy to answer any questions and help with anything at all during the trip. He was great at keeping us all together and getting us everywhere in good time, which everyone appreciated and he really listened well to meet the needs of the group. Communication was excellent, we were always told what was happening and what to expect next and how to prepare for things we were going to do in advance.

Advice for Potential Travellers

I felt totally safe on this trip, and really well looked after, the group tour makes sightseeing so much easier, especially when trying to do shopping or visiting really busy places. I would definitely travel again with exodus, and after seeing many solo travellers in our group, I would have no problem travelling solo with exodus either.

Kerala & the Tropical South

The tour guide and driver made me feel very safe.

Most Inspirational Moment

Visiting the tea plantation.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Biju is an excellent ambassador for Exodus and his country. He is very passionate sharing his culture. He was also great at dealing with guests who fallen ill and needed hospital treatment. He was always polite. He also made sure the trips ran as smoothly as possible. He's a real credit.

Best week ever

You have to try it! I loved the cosy wooden chalet nested in snowy landscapes, trying new activities with the group and by myself, the tasty salmon soup, sitting by the fireplace in the evening, and the variety of optional activities – especially the ice swimming/sauna experience and the Riisitunturi snowshoeing day. Out of this world!

Most Inspirational Moment

Standing on a frozen lake at night and being lucky enough to witness the Northern lights crossing the sky. Walking in the forest and enjoying the silence, just hearing the crisp sound of snow under my feet.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Joonas was the best. Super friendly and approachable, very helpful to explain the snowshoeing and cross country skiing techniques and to book optional activities, very knowledgeable about the area and its fauna (was always looking for animal tracks!).

Advice for Potential Travellers

Just go for it, you won't regret it. It's all it promises and more. Full of nice surprises as well, I won't say more!

Discover North Morocco & Chefchaouen

I highly recommend this trip for anyone who loves Morocco and Moroccan culture. Our guide, Aman, was fantastic, very well organised and instrumental in creating a wonderful experience for the whole group. My only advice would be that if you travel in January, be sure to wrap up as north Morocco can be quite chilly. That said, despite the cold, a fabulous time was had by all.

Most Inspirational Moment

Our guide Aman, as well as all the lovely places we visited.

A Week in Jordan

They were pretty responsive to my questions, the tour was well organized and the pickup at the airport and visa processing in Jordan was extremely smooth.

Most Inspirational Moment

Petra and the stay at the Beduin camp at Wadi Rum were the highlights. The Dead Sea experience was also well worth it.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Mikhled was an excellent tour leader. He was engaging, was patient with all our questions and made every effort to make our trip the best trip ever. For optional lunches and dinners, he made it a point to accompany us to the best local restaurants so that the entire group had a lovely social experience and negotiated group prices for dinners. He made sure everyone was taken care of and every request was patiently addressed.

Iceland Northern Lights

We saw a lot, the group was great and we all really got on. The local company/guide in Iceland (Midgard) was excellent. We had a lot of fun.

Most Inspirational Moment

Difficult to say - each day had a different highlight. The glacier walk was fantastic.

Thoughts on Group Leader

He was great - much fun, very calm and laid back with a fantastic sense of humour and many stories to tell. Excellent driver in the crazy winds that we experienced. We felt very confident in his hands.

Cape Town and the Garden Route

Just fantastic from start to finish. Booking, range of activities, knowledge of tour guide and accommodation we stayed in.

Most Inspirational Moment

Where to start - safari, hermanus and the group I travelled with and the tour guide

Thoughts on Group Leader

Couldn’t have asked for a better leader. He was so knowledgeable and passionate about his home country. He created a fun environment for everyone and made time to get to know everyone in the group. He made sure everyone was looked after and went out of his way to ensure we had the best holiday

Iceland Northern Lights

Excellent communications from first contact through to booking and final joining instructions. This is my sixth Exodus trip and the quality of guides and itinerary always exceeds expectations.

Most Inspirational Moment

The coastal experiences and hike on the glacier

Thoughts on Group Leader

A passionate guide who took the time to show us his town and explain the local culture. A very dry sense of humour which we enjoyed. When one of our party needed to leave earlier than anticipated, he arranged alternative transport and nothing was too much trouble.

Cape Town and the Garden Route

Meeting fellow travellers and Marco, our guide. Marco made this trip complete. The accommodation was excellent and staff couldn’t do enough to make our stay as comfortable as possible. The trip went beyond my expectations.

Most Inspirational Moment

There were so many highlights on this trip. Every day was mind blowing. Would recommend Robben Island. We were shown round by an ex inmate, thought provoking and a sobering reminder of South Africa's distant past. Dolphin watching at Camps Bay sat on the rocks with a coffee. Walking the coastal path at Hermanus (return journey). Zip wire was a thrill. Every corner of the journey brought some wonderful scenery.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Marco was very professional, informative, kind, thoughtful and passionate about his country. He kept us safe and thought about everything. He is extremely knowledgeable about geography, history, floral and fauna and the political situation in South Africa. A very competent and safe driver. Marco always went that extra mile and went beyond his call of duty. Marco made our trip and the whole group loved him to bits. Exodus are very lucky to have him on board.

Discover Sri Lanka

The tour leader, Sujan, was excellent.

Most Inspirational Moment

The visit to the Temple of the Tooth in Kandy, the walk on Horton Plains and the game drive in Yala National Park.

Thoughts on Group Leader

Sujan was engaging, helpful, friendly and very hard working. He imparted a real enthusiasm for his country.
