A great walking holiday in a fantastic part of the work with great food!
Most inspirational aspect of the holiay was just how much walking we did during the week. Looking back it feels like I've been away for much longer.
Very experienced, patient.
There is alot of stairs!!!
The scenery was wonderful (although not a patch on the Pembrokeshire coastline). The walking was challenging and ultimately offered spectacular views, however in the August heat was not always enjoyable. The days where we were not walking were interesting.
On the boat trip on the last day, you get to see from a distance exactly how far you have walked and climbed over the week, that was a satisfying moment. The village where the hotel is based was a highlight of the trip. There aren't really tourists there, just a working village where every garden is fully utilised for growing vegetables and fruit or housing animals. It is wonderful place to spend an afternoon wandering around. You'll also find possibly the best espresso's in Italy there too.
Excellent. Very thorough and attentive.
The walking on this holiday is not moderate. I would recommend some incline training before hand for anyone who does not hike regularly.I went in August, it was incredibly hot. The walking is challenging enough without having to climb in 32 degree heat. Many in the group became hot and sweaty very quickly. This was really uncomfortable at times. I would advise going at a different time.Bug spray is essential for the evenings. The roads to the village and Amalfi are long and windy. If you are someone who suffers from motion sickness, ensure that you take appropriate pills with you.
Everything about the trip was excellent – the scenery, the walks, the knowledge of the Exodus guide, the food, the hotel, the scenery.
Pompeii and Vesuvius!
Enthusiastic, great local knowlege, friendly, worked hard to make sure everyone got the most out of the trip.
A good pair of walking shoes needed and be prepared for sore calves.
This was our first trekking holiday and our first trip with Exodus – both were great. The Hotel Due Torri was a perfect base for some wonderful walks. It was confortable with lovely food and very friendly and helpful staff. We felt like we were tourists sharing in a part of ‘real Italy’, rather than holiday Italy. The guide was superb with loads of local knowledge and heaps of infectious enthusiasim. The walks were tough in places (for leisurely/moderate grading) especially in the August heat but they were well worth the effort for some spectacular views. In addition, you get to visit the amazing ruins of Pompeii and peer into the (active) Vesuvius volcano. I would thoroughly recommend this trip.
Climbing to the top of the mountain and looking down above the clouds to the sea below.
Fabulous - enthusiastic, knowledgeable, fun, and very professional.
Be prepared for the heat if you go in August!
This was a great walking holiday in a very scenic part of the world! The hotel was superb providing friendly service and excellent food! The length and challenge of the walks was just right for me and there was always time to relax at the end before heading back to the hotel. A great group also!
There were many moments just to relax and enjoy the wonderful scenery!
Albert was a great leader - always making sure everyone was relaxed and having a great time! He kept the pace of the walks suitable for everyone and dealt with any queries that we had!
I didn't take walking poles as had never used them before but found a spare one in the hotel which I tried. It was really useful and I'd probably use one again! Just make sure you buy a decent make as they seem prone to breaking quite easily! On my free day I went to visit Ravello which was well worth it!
This was our first trekking holiday and what a great way to start!We enjoyed every aspect from the friendly hotel and staff,inspirational leader,scenery and wonderful food and wine.
Walking around the rim of Versuvius,walking in a nature reserve with the sun shining on a wall of mosses and cascading water and visiting the gardens of Villa Rufolo in Ravello with Dire Straits music as a background!(They were testing the sound equipment for a concert that evening)
Albert made our holiday!He was enthusiastic and clearly enjoyed his job.He had excellent people skills and good local knowledge.He seemed to know everyone and everything!
We found good walking boots and walking poles essential.Remember that the weather in July can be rather hot!
This was a stunning walking holiday! The walks were fairly challenging (we didn’t find any of them leisurely to be honest) but totally doable, with the most amazing views, and we all loved it. The combination of walking, sightseeing at Pompei and the option of a beach here or there are just perfect. Highly recommended!
* Sitting at the top of the mountain on our first day, with THE most amazing view of the whole of the Sorrento peninsula, enjoying our lunch and feeling proud of ourselves for making it to the top.* Getting to the beach at Amalfi at the end of day 2 and 4, after LOTS of steps and lots of tantalising views of what lay ahead (a refreshing dip in the sea!).* Going to Pompei and seeing the amazing ruins. Walking around this ancient town and being able to imagine what life was like in those days. * The Walk of the Gods was truly the most awsome walk I've ever done. Stunning scenery once again and just all around fabulous.* Getting to make a Neapolitan pizza and seeing Giovanni cook up a delicious 3-course dinner for us.
Suzy was a great group leader. Not only did she makes us all feel safe (very important in these mountains), she also knew lots of interesting things and was really flexible to what we needed and wanted (we seemed to have a penchant for the beach, as opposed to the cathedrals, and she made it happen oh so easily!). She was also an excellent table-football player and all-round good sport.
Take your walking poles, proper hiking/mountain boots and light and loose clothing when you go in the summer (we had fantastic weather in June 2011 and it did get very hot). Some people brought water pouches and found those very useful (you do need a lot of water on these walks!).
A really fantastic holiday – exceeded my expectations. The walks were truly spectacular, through lemon groves, beech woods and along the most beautiful coastal paths. Calves still aching from all the steps up and down, but still fun! Really great group of fellow walkers who made the days a really enjoyable experience and were great company. Wonderful, family run hotel with the most fantastic 4 course dinners and nice accommodation. Very well organised week – didn’t have to think of anything! We had a number of options for our free day and they all turned out to be very good.
Loved all the following things:The amazing food, stunningly beautiful coastal walks, ferry trip back from Positano, our free day spent at the Ravello gardens.
Our group leader Liz, was brilliant. She was very well organised and all the days plans ran like clockwork. She looked after us all very well and gave excellent briefings each night - so that we were well prepared for the next day. She was kind and very considerate towards everyone. She was super fit and walked up and down the coastal paths with ease!
Don't forget waterproof's - the weather on the mountains changes rapidly. You definitely need a good pair of walking shoes for this holiday. A long pair of lightweight trousers helps - as there are a lot of grasses and bushes on the edge of the coastal paths. A few of us got rashes on our ankles and lower legs.
Wonderful scenery, great company, good food – and plenty of it – in a friendly hotel. Some of the walking was a little more challenging than we had anticipated (so many steps!) but, none the less, a good first walking holiday.
Much of the scenery was breathtaking - it would be too difficult to pick out a single example.
Albert was brilliant. His local knowledge and network of local contacts ensured we got the best out of the holiday.
Don't forget the sunscreen. I managed to burn my arms on the first day when the breeze masked the power of the sun.Also, I'd never used walking poles before but found them a boon on this trip.
Well organised, great scenery, great weather but a bit more than ‘leisurely/moderate’. Lots and lots of steps that caused some people to be very sore.
The tiny nature park in the woods above Amalfi with the waterfalls and mosses
Well organised and very helpful
Lots of steps. vast majority down, and some rough sections. Get in training and take poles
