Another superb Exodus adventure. An excellent and varied walk program. The Hotel Torrecerredo was of a very high standard with delicious meals provided each day. The owners Jim & Pilar were brilliant hosts too. Special mention also to Adolfo-brilliant character! We had a small group of 8 and we all got on really well right from the start.
The Cares Gorge walk was amazing with breathtaking views. Simply stunning.
Thomaz is a superb leader in every way. Highly experienced, very well organised and above all just great company with a great sense of humour. He contributed massively to my enjoyment of the trip. Thanks Thomaz.
Book this trip! This was my 15th trip with Exodus. Cannot recommend this company highly enough!
Why is Carla’s Douro Valley tour so uniquely magical? Because she grew up here and still lives in the region, therefore she knows the nature trails, the roads, and the hidden gems like the back of her hand. Plus the itinerary is educational AND a lot of fun!
The most awe-inspiring moment for me was our first hike along the Corgo River walking trail. The panoramic views of the terraced vineyards, gardens, mountains, river and valleys under a bright blue sky were like being in the middle of an IMAX movie, surrounded by beauty so breathtaking, it almost made me dizzy!
Carla has set an impossibly high bar. I cannot commend her and thank her enough for making my first visit to Portugal the fabulous vacation that it was. Thanks to Carla, not only did the beauty and culture of the Douro Valley meet my expectations, it exceeded them from day one and just kept getting better! You can tell she loves what she does - her tour is truly one-of-a-kind (you'll see what I mean).
Bring layers, comfortable non-slip walking shoes, rain gear just in case, and be flexible if the weather doesn't cooperate. TRUST CARLA!!! She will make it special no matter what.
Another excellent holiday that could have been a real slog in the wet and windy weather but was turned around by the great Exodus support team. The overall planning of the trip was first-rate and its execution outstanding. The beautiful countryside, wonderful scenery and fascinating history was bought to life during our cycling adventure. Great hotels, restaurants and coffee shops ensured we stayed fit and healthy despite often being very damp and windswept!
Watching the enormous Atlantic rollers after the overnight storm.
Dinis was such a good leader I have nominated him for the leader award.
If cycling in the rain don't bother wearing socks!
Sunshine, hurricane, autumn rain, glorious food, great company and the most wonderful guides. What else could one wish for in this diverse, friendly and scenically beautiful country. And the bikes were first class as well!
It would have to be the delightful birthday cake and celebration for my “big”one.
One could not have wished for a better guide. Always smiling, energetic, well informed, sporty and supportive of his team. Teresa is a star and we could not have been in better hands either with our driver/ mechanic/ man of all talents Leonel!
Ask for a different hotel in Obidos. “The literature man “ doesn’t cut the mustard!
Just back from doing this tour. The walks are arduous at times but they’re well worth it as the scenery is fantastic. The accommodation was good with clean rooms and good home cooking.
Our guide Jose was local and he was knowledgeable in all aspects of the terrain, history and agricultural status, he also makes great sandwiches! The group also benefited from pick ups and drop offs on our free day from Jose and lots of suggestions regarding what to do.
If there was a problem it was the mosquitos….make sure you take repellents as they will eat you alive!
Can’t not mention Bobi (the dog) and Sara who also did some of the pick ups and drop offs, thank you both.
For me it was the all of the summits
Very knowledgeable, fun and nice
Mosquito Spray!!!
The accommodations at the Adler were better than expected. The room was lovely and the staff (especially Jesus) were very friendly and efficient.
The hiking agenda had to be adjusted due to deteriorating weather conditions but it did not take away from the experience for me. Such a beautiful place!
Every day had inspiring moments. The sheer beauty of the mountains and lakes and learning the history in the area provided much fodder for reflection and inspiration.
Our leader Jenny was wonderful. She worked incredibly hard to accommodate the different levels of skill while providing us the best experience by modifying the agenda according to changing weather conditions. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area and I learned a lot while hiking every day. She was also a lot of fun! Thank you so much Jenny!
READ THE TRIP NOTES & TRAIN!!! Be honest about your level of fitness before signing up for trekking holidays. Be prepared for all weather conditions and have the right gear.
A fantastic week of company, food and scenery. A group of 15 who all connected well from UK, USA Australia and Iceland.
The hotel – great location and the food wow. Everyday I was excited about dinner and this never happens. The food made the week stand out in my mind. Loved it, we all did. Thank you to the wo derful hotel.
Hiking – challenging in the heat,varied and boy we all felt we had a good workout.
We loved the varied terrains, coffee stops and our guide, Thomas was very good.
Walking through a valley of lavender in the blazing sunshine. The numerous walks and invigorating conversations. Thankful it was a good, fun and diverse group. Alot of belly laughs, each individual bringing their positivity to the week. Hearing the cowbells, it all reminded me of Austria.
Very good.
Book it. Solo rooms sell out quickly. Cute rooms.
This trip was everything I hoped it would be and had been on my bucket list for some time. And it is almost impossible to put into words.
I have been lucky enough to travel with Exodus on numerous occasions, and this trip is one of the best I have ever been on. I was lucky enough to be with a wonderful group of people as well.
The itinerary is perfectly thought through – from the historical sights of Amman and Jerash to the walking at Petra to the occasions to relax (especially at the Red Sea and the Dead Sea.)
Jordan is a stunning country; rich in culture and history with extraordinary landscapes. From the grandeur of Petra to the serenity of the Wadi Rum to the relaxation of the Dead Sea. Jordan really is the total package.
The people of Jordan are amongst the friendliest in the world, and need us as tourists right now. If you are wondering whether it is safe – IT IS!
The transport used was very comfortable with WiFi, charging points and air conditioning on the coach. (Our driver was also great – felt very safe with him at the wheel.)
I have two, and I cannot decide which one should be most inspiring! 1) Petra was everything I had imagined, and the "reveal" of The Treasury as you walked down towards it was breathtaking. 2) The night in the Wadi Rum was perfectly serene - from watching the sunset, to star gazing to seeing the sun rise was just magical.
I was very lucky to have had Mikhled as my Tour Leader for this trip. Mikhled is a wonderful leader. We could not have asked for a better or more knowledgeable Tour Leader. He shared his knowledge and love for his country with passion together with a sense of fun. He guided us with sensitivity, kindness and with the patience of a saint. Exodus are truly lucky to have him as a Tour Leader, and as a proud Jordanian he is a true representative for his wonderful country of Jordan. He went above and beyond on several occasions including sharing some wonderful historical photos of Amman, Jerash and Petra after we had visited them - a real insight.
GO! Jordan is totally safe, in fact I felt safer in Jordan than I do in London. The people of Jordan need our support as tourists. Hope that Mikhled is your tour leader. Be prepared for large meals - the Jordanians like to feed people! Take loose comfortable clothing. Take some cat treats - there are dozens of friendly cats. Mind the salt in your eyes in the Dead Sea.
I recently returned from an unforgettable hiking trip with Exodus, exploring the breathtaking Mont Blanc highlights, and I can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived in Chamonix, we were enveloped by the stunning beauty of the Alps. Our chalet was a true gem, offering incredible views of Mont Blanc that made every morning feel magical.
Chamonix itself is a vibrant hub, bursting with life, charming shops, and delicious eateries. Even though we experienced a couple of cloudy and rainy days, the weather didn’t dampen our spirits or our hikes. In fact, the dramatic skies only added to the allure of the landscape, enhancing the beauty of each trail we traversed.
A standout moment of the trip was our free day when we took the Aiguille du Midi cable car to the summit of Mont Blanc. The views from the top were absolutely breathtaking, a highlight that I will cherish forever.
Our guide, Jeffry, was exceptionally professional and organized, making sure that everything ran smoothly throughout our adventure. His enthusiasm and knowledge of the region really brought the experience to life. Additionally, we were so well cared for by our chalet hosts, Tom and Sol, who made our stay comfortable and welcoming. Their hospitality truly made us feel at home.
Overall, this hiking trip was a perfect blend of adventure, breathtaking scenery, and wonderful company. I can’t wait for my next adventure with Exodus!

Wow…we have done years of hiking and climbing in mountains all over the world and the Dolomites do not disappoint . The geology and WWI history make the mountains very unique. Add in the charm of walking through green pastures with the sounds of cow bells and church bells, and you have quite the scene. Be ready for some good elevation gains and not a lot of switchbacks. The strudel and coffee stops at the Refugios help fuel the hikes. Hotel Adler is a great base camp. Spacious rooms and equipment storage with boot dryers plus old world charm. I wish I could say good things about the dinners. The billed Tyrolean special dinner was all fish (?). The vegetarian offerings were sad. The pasta was hard as was the risotto, and when I mentioned it to the waiter I was told dismissively it was “al dente”. The breakfast was delish and varied.
The circuit around Tre Time was worth the price of the trip.
Andrea was super capable and personable. We felt he was a bit of an introvert and almost uneasy talking to a group.
The hikes are rated 3, but they are not easy! Be in shape for some elevation. Mid September was 10 degrees below normal temps and there was new snow a few days before we arrived. (The snow was gorgeous on the peaks) Bring plenty of layers. I used hand warmers on every hike.
