We had a wonderful guide, Ahmed, who was knowledgeable, interesting and very attentive to every need of the group.
Outings to the pyramids, temples and burial chambers with the wonderful narratives provided by Ahmed.
Ahmed was terrific and his input was, in every respect, a huge asset. His attention to detail and his ability to meet each individuals needs was truly impressive
A very varied trip in a green and beautiful land with palm fringed beaches and he warmth of the Indian Ocean. We covered 1600km and seemed to do it all, temples, wildlife safaris, historical ruins, adventure white water rafting, markets, tea plantation, botanical gardens, shopping, culture, beach. Name it and we were there! A comprehensive and very enjoyable itinerary.
Too many...The tranquility of the ruins atop Lion Rock, the amazing bird life, the leopard at Yala and the sunset over the lake, swimming in the warm Indian Ocean, the hanging parrots and sunbird in the date palm outside my window, the thrill of white water rafting (a first for me). All unforgettable.
Superb. Amazingly well organised. He coped with the different demands of our varied group with good grace, always pleasant, always polite, always fair and kind to everyone. A great job Sujan! Thank you.
Lots, but everyone finds their own way. Try everything. Don't forget plenty of sun block and plenty of insect repellent. An umbrella is a useful item. Best place to buy tea is not at the plantation itself because of limited stock and relatively little choice, but in Galle on Rampart Street when you walk around the old fort. T-shirts at the botanical gardens shop are decent quality. Take binoculars, really worthwhile, and a bird book if interested. There are kids at the farm visit, so a colouring book or 2 as giveaways may be welcome.
This is my 3rd trip with Exodus and will continue to travel with you as I find the value for the price is very good and I believe that most needs are anticipated and planned for and things seem to flow very smoothly.
Visiting all the archaeological sites was amazing. I had no idea how well preserved the temples and tombs were
Ahmed was an amazing guide! He was so kind and patient and knowledgeable in his explanations of the history of the lineage of the ancient rulers and meaning of the hieroglyphics. He has a wonderful sense of humor and felt more like a good friend welcoming us to his country rather than a hired tour guide.
My first cycling tour in Spain was a triumph of discovery, guided by the exceptional Miguel. Surrounded by a wonderful group, we pedaled through stunning landscapes across Spain’s Mediterranean Coast, savored authentic local cuisine, and immersed ourselves in the rich tapestry of culture. An unforgettable adventure, and definitely, more cycling tours to come!
The whole trip was amazing!, we had a great group and guide, that made the trip that much better! My fav day was - .Cycling Through Ebro Delta National Park (Day 4): The ride through the Ebro Delta National Park was so scenic, calm, and peaceful. It was such a serene vibe cycling through this park, the lagoons and rice fields!
Our group leader Miguel was absolutely amazing. His expertise, enthusiasm, and dedication elevated the entire experience and created a fantastic atmosphere throughout the trip!
E Bikes are a plus if needed!
I recently embarked on the Finnish Wilderness Week with Exodus, and it was an experience of a lifetime! Basecamp Oulanka is a charming retreat surrounded by forests and Juuma Lake. The week was filled with many winter activities, including snowshoeing in the snow-covered forests, cross-country skiing by the lake, and an unforgettable dogsledding adventure, despite being new to winter sports the guides were incredibly helpful and patient with us. The accommodation at Basecamp Oulanka was superb, offering warm rooms, and the provision of all necessary Arctic equipment made the adventure comfortable and enjoyable.
Fantastic holiday. Varied as covered mountains, tea plantations, jungle, backwaters and temples.
Early morning walk around the streets, market and Sri Meenakshi temple Madurai.
Group leader Biju Kumar was excellent. Knowledgeable about all aspects of the tour. First class.
Trip described as leisurely but walk around tea plantation exhausting. Also warning about leeches in the jungle and tea plantation and the need to take more than one insect repellent. Waterproof jacket needed.
A really enjoyable trip though it would have been good to have had a few extra nights. Fantastic scenery, a varied mix of locations, and accommodation was good throughout.
There were quite a few. I really enjoyed the desert camp and would have loved a second night there. Travelling in the 4x4s was pretty exciting, viewing Oman's grand canyon which was spectacular, having lunch in an ancient village high in the mountains. Nizwa with its fort, Souq and animal auction was interesting. Highlights in Muscat were the Grand Mosque and the sunset cruise in a traditional dhow.
Qais was very enthusiastic and was happy to talk about the Omani culture. He worked really hard to make the trip an enjoyable one.
A very busy week with 1 night in each location, only 2 nights in Nizwa. We only saw one turtle at Ras Al Jinz in December which wasn't the main nesting season. There was a lot of waiting until our group went to the beach. It was very dark so watch your step! Make sure you pack some loose fitting, long sleeved clothes.
Varanasi. Like nothing I’ve experienced before …not to be missed. Simply amazing.
The best. He found us places to eat and snack and drink and sit …and knew every best view …and made the trip simply outstanding
Follow your guides advice at all times. Take a deep breath …and enjoy
I spent the last year trying to decide what I wanted to do for my 50th birthday. I wanted to go someplace “different” and nothing lit a spark. I thought it might be fun to do Galapagos and Machu Picchu and I happened up on Exodus Travels while trying to find that exact trip, but after stumbling upon the Premium Peru itinerary I was hit with that spark I was looking for. This was a last-minute decision for us as we booked barely two months before departure and the Exodus folks and website were so easy to work. I was able to book it in a snap. The trip was perfectly planned with great hotels, food, transportation and experiences. We were spoiled from Day 1. We didn’t have to worry about anything other than making sure we didn’t leave anything behind, that our water bottles were filled, and we were on time for our next day’s adventure. From the ocean to the mountains to the rainforest, we saw and learned about the rich history and culture of the Peruvian land and peoples. The itinerary was filled with fascinating stops, such as Arequipa, Lake Titicaca and Pun, Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu, the rain forest. We learned about the ancient peoples and how their traditions continue today despite the European influences that have taken hold since the 1600s. The Peruvian culture is a beautiful blend of both. William, our phenomenal group leader, imbued us with his vast knowledge of the ancient and modern cultures all while ensuring our trip was all we had hoped for.
The boat trip to the floating islands on Lake Titicaca was incredible. We visited these people who lived such a simple life on these man-made reed islands with reed huts, fishing and hunting and ensuring their necessities. They held on to their traditions while embracing the modernity of trading on the mainland for other needs such as solar power and other foodstuff as well as ensuring their children had a good education. It was absolutely beautiful learning about their history and seeing how they live.
I can't say enough good things about William without sounding like I'm gushing. We are grateful to have had William as our group leader. He was attentive and kind. He went out of his way to ensure our trip was perfect. My husband and I were having a difficult time with the altitude and we couldn't do the one-day Inca trail hike. It would have been a nightmare. But he waited for us to make the call, and I am positive he would have supported us in whatever decision we made. I imagine had we gone, he would have patiently helped us every step of the way. But we did decide to not do it and William made sure we were well-cared for while he and our tour mate went on the hike. Not only that, but the next day during our trek to Machu Picchu, he went out of his way to make sure we had a special experience and view of the ruins. William also went above and beyond to add experiences that weren't on the itinerary -- stops for delicacies during our road trips, additional stops that he though were important like the salt pools and the circle terraces. He wasn't just going through the motions. Peru is his country and he wanted us to experience it as much as possible.
Don't overpack. Trust me, you won't need everything on the packing list.
The Langtang and Gosalainkund Lakes trip is a real gem. Having previosly trekked in the Everest and Annapurna regions we chose a different area of Nepal this time and were certainly not disappointed. T The trial itself is very quiet and peaceful, with the poignant reminder of the terrible devastation of the Langtang village. The mood soon lifted the spectacular views of the mountains from Kyanjin Ri and the nearby lake. We were particularly lucky to be spoilt with a beautiful sunset at Gosainkund, where the lake melted into a sea of gold as the sun disappeared, and in the other direction the sky went orange and red. An excellent trip for those that want something different, and more of the same!
The sunset as Gosainkund lake
We were also very lucky to be supported by a great team, getting to know head guide Dorjee, his assistant PG and the porters all being a great pleasure and highlight of the trip. Dorjee in particular deserves great praise for his communication, leading skills, knowledge and making sure we all got as much as possible out the trip.
