It was our first trip with Exodus and we were a bit worried about what we would find/be expected to do! We need not have worried- the organisation was perfect and our guide made sure everyone felt comfortable with what was happening, adapting some activities for some of the group. So much so we are now planning our next trip.
- Halong Bay-WOW! - Hoi- An -what a lovely town - Chi-Chi tunnels- so interesting - Mekong Delta- an amazing experience
Our guide was Lam who was so attentive to everyone's needs and very knowledgable.
It's quite an active holiday- not a problem for us, but a couple of the group found some of the activities too strenuous. Make sure you have a reasonable level of fitness.
Fabulous hotel with fabulous food.Had a fantastic time with a great leader and wonderful walks.
The scenery
Very good
Just enjoy
The most thrilling, rewarding and emotional adventure I have ever been on.
Too many to mention, but here are a few:Setting off from Stella Point in the knowledge that I was going to make it to Uhuru Peak prompted me to burst into tears. An amazing and unexpected personal experience - I hope no one saw me.The camaraderie with guides and fellow trekkers. Personal bonds made for life.So much laughter, especially in times of despair.Getting to the top of the Barranco Wall and, of course, Uhuru Peak - a truly spiritual moment.
Abraham was calm, inspirational, knowledgeable and, by the end of the trip, a true friend. And I have the upmost respect for his whole team, all wonderful people.
First of all read Henry Stedman's book. That's the only guidebook you'll need.Take wet wipes.Plenty of hiking before you go with a heavy load. I hiked 250 miles during the 5 months leading up to the trip.Take something to wee in at night time - you really won't want to leave your tent at night.Hire their mats.Take all the time you need and be positive and remember to laugh and laugh.Talk to the guides and porters, they are such wonderful people.The only time I got blisters was on the way down - that day and a half of descent was an unexpected torture.
An absolute classic despite torrential rain, earthquakes, strikes, leeches etc etc, all of which were handled with great calmness by our superb guide Santosh Kumar!
The wonderful Indian people who couldn't do enough for us!!
Santosh Kumar was an inspired leader who with dilligence and humour lead us on this fantastic adventure. Santosh went out of his way to ensure that every individual had a fantastic holiday, he was kind and fair to all and the whole group got on like a house in fire, due to his great attention to detail. A star!!!!
Expect anything and everything on this trip, don't ever go on an Exodus holiday and expect to follow the itinerary, the holiday's themselves always turn out to be much better.
A fantastic trip into the Himalayas and at the same time a chance to really feel that you accomplished something.
Without doubt, making it to base camp. On the day you walk up there, you are feeling sleep deprived, tired, possibly sick and then sense of achievement and relief at making it is fantastic. Also, just walking through the mountains and seeing the beautiful snow covered peaks.On top of that the members of the group were brilliant and all helped each other get there and back. It was great to see everyone achieve their ambition.
Uggs was great and as promised very lucky. Lukla Airport had been shut for 6 days before we flew in and 6 days before we flew out. He assured us that he always got his groups in and out on time, and against all the odds we did keep exactly to schedule. The entire team were brilliant from the leader, to the rest of the guides and our yak man. They all showed great patience and gave encouragement when needed to help you get up sections if you were struggling.
Just do it. Prepare yourself though, and the more fitness you attain the less you will suffer ;-) Apart from EBC day, the other days are not too long, and it wasn't as bad as I thought it was going to be. As the guides put it, if you can manage day 2 of the trek, you can manage all of it!!I took Diamox with me (just in case) but didn't need to take it. Paracetemol, ibruprofen and cold & flu tablets are enough to get you through. Don't forget your strepsils though as the Khumbu cough is a matter of when not if.
Excellent trip , varied itinerary with lots of time to explore.
We really enjoyed the optional trip down to the very tip of India. I would recommend that that day be part of the itinerary. The wooden palace en route was amazing, and the island off the coast where the three seas meet was just wonderful. The ferry was an experience not to be missed.The houseboat was very well appointed and the food excellent with such an attenetive crew. The views as we cruised the backwaters were a delight = very restful and romantic.
Gopal was lovely. Kind efficient and very thorough. He was very good at making sure we enjoyed all sorts of culinary delights. It was our third trip to India but he found us different tasty meals that we had not tasted before.
You know leeches are not so bad. Inconvenient but not life threatening!!
A wonderful trip. Morocco is a good place to be. Our guide Abdullah was knowledgeable and informative. A nice person to meet. He explained the Berber culture. The walking tour of Marrakesch was a real bonus, helping us understanmd the development of the city and the history of Morocco. The main square in Marrakesch is indescribable in 500 words. As a vegetarian I good special treatment, and excellent food.
Visiting a Berber family for tea, bread, cheese and cakes. So welcoming, so friendly. So generous with their smiles and humour
Excelent. Extremely good at his job. It was a pleasure to meet him. Very caring. A good organiser and team member. A fantastic snse of numour - understanding our jokes.
Go as sson as yopu can.Take warm clothes for the Gite (this is in the trip notes).Take some souvenirs/pictures from your part of the World for the Berber family - pencils etc for the children Buy a carpet for lonmg time meories. Haggle, haggle, haggle in the souks. .
An enjoyable trip that provides a varied flavour of all the sights and sounds that India has to offer. It is a mix of fairly easy cycling combined with some longish coach transfers to be able to cover the distances required. One note of caution is to check the weather as traveling over Christmas means you are subjected to very cold nights and often foggy mornings.
India. Its a country of such contrasts, history, friendly people, sights, poverty, the contriductions of modern New Delhi versus Old Delhi. The Amber Fort, Jaipur and the Taj Mahal are obvious highlights.
The organisation was very effectifient and able to cope with the minor mishaps you expect on these trips.
Check the temperature averages for time of year you are travelling, December and January is close to freezing overnight in Rajasthan and therefore the unheated hotels are very cold at night. Also some mornings when the majority of the cycling is done were foggy.
A once in a life time trip for me, worth every penny, trip was well planned out, tour guide was brill in every way.
Every day was inspirational for me, i've always wanted to go Great Wall when i first saw it on telly as a kid, can't believe i've done it. The view is so breath taking, everyday was a different section of the wall and different scenery. The people/family running the guest house are lovely and friendly. Food is great out there, so many choices.
Group leader Danny was brill, always smiling and joking around, very approachable, deserves a big raise!!!A trip well planned out and not just a group leader but was apart of our team.
Take a plastic knife with you for when you stay in guest house, spreading peanut butter on toast with a chopstick was another experience but a great laugh.
Fantastic holiday. Brilliant group leader (Barbara), amazing and well located hotel with fantastic food, great trips and well organised.
Pompeii....or the Walk of the Gods....stunning scenary and amazing history.
She was fab. Incredibly knowledgable and very friendly. Kept the group together well without being overbearing.
Very good choice for either a new Exodus traveller to see what it's all about or a great shorter break for a seasoned Exodus traveller (like myself).
