Pretty awesome - go!

Everything an adventure should be; stunning country, packed itinerary but plenty of time to do your thing, varied sights but all worth seeing, comfortable and clean accommodation, faultless transport, a great bunch of fellow explorers and a guide who brought it all together with energy, consideration (for us) and passion for his country (thanks Bon!).

First time with Exodus for us, definitely not the last.

Thanks to all involved at Exodus and in Vietnam an inspiring country and people.

Vietnam Adventure - you really need to take this trip!

The Vietnam Adventure trip was absolutely fantastic and is certainly how to sample the variety Vietnam has to offer in a short space of time. Every day was different and I learnt so much about the country from Lam our tour guide for whom nothing was too much trouble. Lam went ‘above and beyond’ to meet the needs of everyone in the group. The trip was well-paced with enough downtime to relax, go shopping and enjoy an additional bicycle ride with a local guide. My personal highlights were visiting Ha Long Bay, the Imperial City in Hue, My Son and cycling by the rice fields. Perhaps the decor in one or two of the hotels is in need of updating but the rooms were clean and the hotel staff were very happy to help. Sadly our outgoing flight was cancelled after we had checked -in but the team at Exodus were ‘on the case’ straightaway and re-booked us onto the first available flight the next day.

What an adventure!

A packed itinerary that really fit the best of this wonderful country into two weeks, I saw far more in this time than I could have by going it alone and also shared the experiences with a great bunch of people.

Holiday

Excellent time and history

Don't waste another moment, book it now

Vietnam was a very pleasant surprise, clean, superb food, great scenery and a fascinating history.
Highlight for me were the Chu Chi tunnels north of Ho Chi Minh city (Saigon to the locals). Not for the feint hearted, claustrophobic or overtly large they gave an opportunity to scurry around underground and marvel at the ingenuity of the local people fighting a far better equipped army.
Vietnam is on the verge of a building boom so I would not delay and book today.

Vietnam Adventure

I cannot fault any aspect of this trip and can say without a doubt I had a truly unforgettable experience in this amazing country. The Itinerary is vary varied which allows you to experience the many different destinations, activites, culture and food throughtout the north, central & southern regions of Vietnam. All accommodation used was of a high standard and very centrally located which is another great bonus as you can experience more of a destination rather than spending time travelling to/from your hotel. The weather was very hot when I travelled in May, this did not affect the experience of the trip & I would throughly recommend this tour to anyone.

A seamless trip.

From the initial pickup at the airport to being dropped off the organisation and execution of this holiday/ adventure worked seamlessly for us. The information and sights we saw were brilliant.

Vietnam Adventure

I have just returned from the Vietnam Adventure trip. It was my 6th Exodus adventure and I have to say it was easily one of the best I have been on.

This vast country has so much to offer, there are vast differences between the north and the south and the trip enables you to experience a lot in a relatively short time.

When we were on the boat in Halong Bay the weather was damp and grey – it gave a really ethereal quality to the experience and I think our photographs are absolutely stunning.

As we moved south the weather changed and became hot and humid which was a relief!

To me the whole trip was fantastic, it’s hard to pick favourite places but I have to say that Hoi An and My Son were truly amazing. I have never seen anything like them.

It is a busy trip with lots to take in and lots of variety in what you do. I have to say that Tao, our Trip Leader, was brilliant. He must have had so much to organise, check and manage but he did it all with total calm and good humour. He was knowledgeable and kind and is one of the best Trip Leaders I have had the pleasure of touring with.

The standard of hotels is excellent, the toilets are fantastic and everywhere is spotlessly clean.

So book it and enjoy.

Cambodia

This was a great trip and Bun, trip leader, was very good. Cambodia is blossoming as a travel destination following years of war and turmoil, they are not yet really geared up to separate the tourist from the $ which is really refreshing. Give it a few years and I’m sure it will be different!

The hotels are of a much higher standard than I expected including charging facilities in hotel foyers. I was also very pleasantly surprised by the condition and cleanliness of the toilets both in the hotel and outside in bars etc.

Food is fantastic as well.

Bring sound shoes as there is a lot of climbing at the temples and when you go to the Bat Cave, make sure to take the extra bus up to the Killing Cave, they don’t focus on the cave but there are beautiful temples and things up there.

Enjoy Cambodia xx

Vietnam Adventure

An excellent trip. As previously, super hotels, above all perfectly located, never more than a short walk from the centre/sights.
The usual combination of comfort, with a little bit of “edge” & adventure during the day. But go now – at current rate of development, there will be too many of us tourists, & moped fumes in cities will be intolerable.
Our guide, T-V, was absolutely superb. Knowledgeable, caring, & always willing to go the extra mile to deal with eg complex eating habits of the group. Tet (New Year) was actually a great time to visit, lots of buzz, & any downside (eg potential restaurant closure ) was anticipated & dealt with by T-V
