I have just got home from my cycle holiday in the Loire. It exceeded my expectations. The guide Pierre, was very knowledgeable and helpful. The bikes were good. The cycle paths were all excellent, a few quiet roads, I did not feel nervous or over challenged. There was variety and plenty of visits to Chateau’s, vineyards and wine tasting. The picnic lunches were all very French, which is all part of the experience, and Thomas made wonderful choices of where we had them. The level of cycling was accurate. The distances were comfortable. I will certainly be looking for my next trip with Exodus.

michael & jennifer yeomans Cycle Northern France: Brittany to NormandyThis trip was a very pleasant excursion across the French country side. We started riding just outside of Rennes where we followed paved and stone dust paths along a canal to the coast. We had a short ferry ride from Dinard to St. Malo and continued cycling north. The majority of our cycling was on quiet country roads through fields of wheat, corn and other crops. The trip notes do a reasonable overview of the trip suitable for planning purposes. The hotels were conveniently located near areas of interest and were comfortable. Some of these required substantial stair climbing. Hotel food was very good overall and of course, the coffee. Restaurant food – to die for.
Michael KNOWLES Tour du Mont Blanc Hotel TrekThis was a great trekking experience with plenty of good advice available from the Exodus team beforehand in terms of preparation and what to expect. We started in the second week of the trekking season and so encountered a good deal of snow, which for us was a first in terms of trekking. We also had two fairly short ‘river’ crossings, which we had to negotiate and again a first for us. Our group leader was an extremely experienced mountain guide who made a great deal of effort to keep the group focussed on the trail ahead especially when it mattered. Amazing views at the tops of climbs and probably not a good trek for those with a fear of heights!
