Walking The Amalfi Coast
An excellent holiday. Hotel very good. All days well planned and well supported by Exodus.
very good guide, Martin. Would recommend Exodus and this venue.

Probably Vesuvius, realising the size of the 79 AD eruption. Also being on top and looking down!

Connection....people, places and history
This was my first Exodus trip and it gave me more than could ever imagined. In a digital age, people have forgotten how to connect with each other. A week walking the Amalfi coast, I connected with so many people, heard their inspiring stories, share some amazing sights with them and learnt some valuable lessons from the past.
Most Inspirational Moment
Our leader was fantastic. We had someone is our group fall and badly sprain their ankle, a few miles from any accessible road, he carried her on his back and arranged transport to the hospital and still managed to get the rest of us to our destination in time. Patience, kind and caring.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Amazing man. Knowledgeable, patience, kind, understanding. He couldn't do enough for us.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Book a trip with Exodus now! The trip note are only a highlight of what you get from a holiday with them. There are surprises and treats when you least expect it.

The Amalfi Coast - TDA160416
fine weather, excellent walks,Pompeii, Vesuvius and Herculaneum, Naples archaeological Museum and Naples in the rush hour did just what we wanted.Excellent food. I can’t believe that we crammed so much in a week.
Most Inspirational Moment
party in Antonio's bar; totally unexpected, a very generous end to the first day showing us the produce and edible weeds in his garden, his home made wine etc and local cheese.
Apart from that, the glorious views and the beautiful walk through Val Ferriere with its old papermills, iron workings and waterfalls.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Excellent; very supportive, and nothing was too much trouble for Martin.

Walking the Amalfi Coast
Stunning, Brilliant, Excellent, The whole experience of Amalfi, the Hotel, the walks, the excursions, the food, the staff at the hotel, the group and of course our wonderful guides all exceeded our expectations. Our First time with exodus but it certainly wont be the last.
Most Inspirational Moment
So many to choose from but probably the walk of the gods which ended in Positano and a swim in the beautiful if slightly chilly Mediterranean Sea.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Both Paul and Martin were excellent, full of enthusiasm and knowledge of the local area and considerate of peoples individual requirements.

Walking the Amalfi Coast
A fantastic week of walking and taking in the beautiful views of the Amalfi Coast. Great for solo travellers – everyone in the group very friendly and easy to get on with.
The hotel staff were brilliant, the food demos good fun and the cocktails were great!
Most Inspirational Moment
Too many moments to think of one - great sense of achievement on many of the walks especially getting to the top of Vesuvius.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Our group leader Paul was fantastic, very knowledgeable, helpful and good fun. He was shadowed by Martin that week who is also a lovely guy.
Advice for Potential Travellers
Wear good walking shoes.

A simply stunning Italian Adventure
An amazing 7 days spent, seeing the sights of Amalfi, Positano, Ravello, Capri, Nature Reserves, Mount Vesuvius and more.
A beautiful way to explore what south west Italy has to offer.
Most Inspirational Moment
The satisfaction of spending a whole day discovering such beautiful rural & coastal sights, then back to re-group in the evening for wonderful meals & wine.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Paul & Martin were absolutely amazing. Such fun to be around 2 guides with such knowledge and enthusiasm.
Their passion for Italy and the outdoors certainly rubbed off!
Advice for Potential Travellers
If travelling in March/April, pack for all weather conditions. It can be cooler up in the mountains, but a hot summers day on the coast.
There isn't much 'down time' on the trip, it's action packed and full of fun.

Thoughts on Group Leader
Emily was a great group leader. She was very kind , encouraging , and supportive. She was well organized and made the trip quite enjoyable for everyone.

I think I do. Those hikes are much harder that you would think.
They need training and a very good pair of shoes.

Amalfi Coast Walk
I arranged for a party of five friends to participate on this trip. We all came back full of praise for the quality of the organisation, the food, the accommodation, the variety and fulsome nature of every day, the friendliness of the group, the excellence of the guide. We were particularly impressed, and relieved, by the efficiency and care with which our guide and Exodus leapt into action to get us home when we learnt there was going to be an airport strike. It all went as smoothly as anyone could have hoped for. This was my fifth trip with Exodus and its a company I feel I can fully trust.
Most Inspirational Moment
Completing that first walk from the hotel down to Amalfi. It was challenging with so many steps to navigate! But the views, the trees, plants, terraces, hillside homes even the fresh air was everything I hoped it would be.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Severio was a very attentive, knowledgeable and encouraging leader of our group. He made sure we all were able to stay with the walking group and participate in all that was planned. Our guide ensured we had experience of local facilities and access to local people and made every moment fun. We felt he took every effort to make our holiday pleasurable, safe and companionable.
Advice for Potential Travellers
The distance of the planned walks is not daunting however there is a lot of going up or down with little on the flat. That is the nature and the beauty of the area. Nearly every walk required climbing or descending a lot of steps. So good knees and a walking pole are advisable!

Freaking Wonderful.
My daughter was studying abroad in Hungary and asked me to travel with her over spring break. I googled Amalfi and Adventure vacation. That’s how I found Exodus. I read the itinerary for two days and on the third day I held a lovely conversation with an Exodus Rep and voila(!), we had a plan to Walk Amalfi Coast. Casual beginnings; turned out to be inspiring and fantastically fun and great food (+exercise to heal the delicious guilt of eating dessert and drinking wine each evening).
Most Inspirational Moment
Wow. So many. I loved the quotes and in-real-life stories Paul, our leader, shared. The Guests in our group were all cut from the same non-whiny, very kind to all, no person left behind, cloth. Hitting the peak of a hillside climb was always breathtaking.
Thoughts on Group Leader
Could. Not. Have. Been. Better! I'd take any trip that dude led. Paul was a master of the fine art of leadership and personality. His partner in trading, Marty, was thoughtful, helpful and cheerful as well.
