A great week on Evia

A great week on the beautiful Greek island of Evia. Loved the unspoilt nature of the island, the scenery and the wildflowers. Excellent leader who worked very hard and was very knowledgeable. Customer service from Exodus is always of a high standard.

Hiking in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania

Hiking in the Carpathian Mountains of Romania was wonderful. Our guide, Sebi, couldn't have been better. He was knowledgeable about Romania's history, knew the hiking area, accommodated everyone, including the slower hikers, and was very professional, patient and attentive. The itinerary was varied with an assortment of hikes as well as down time in the cozy villa. I loved seeing the bears in the wild as well as those in the sanctuary that are being cared for so beautifully. Villa Hermani was beautiful and cozy run by a delightful person. Katharina, who ensured we had everything we needed, including plenty of delicious food. I highly recommend this trip. I had a blast!

I can't recommend Exodus enough

I can't recommend Exodus as a company enough. Everything about our trip from initial booking to our super guide Kleberth in Peru, our hike along the Inca Trail and visit to Machu Picchu was exceptional. We were only a group of two people in the end and we were so well looked after, the itinerary spot on, and everything managed efficiently for a smooth experience. Highly recommend - we visited Peru April/May 2026.

Cycling in Vietnam …

We had an excellent cycling and touring holiday in Vietnam, made truly special by a superb guide, Lam, and his outstanding support team. From start to finish, everything was extremely well organised, and Lam’s knowledge of local history, culture, and food was exceptional. His attention to safety on the roads, clear briefings, and constant support made the cycling feel secure and well managed throughout.

The cycling itself took us through a wonderful mix of landscapes, from quieter rural villages to more challenging terrain. While the trip was described as moderate, we found it more demanding on some days, with long distances and significant elevation gains, though always manageable for reasonably fit riders. Good quality bikes were provided and very well maintained, with daily checks, cleaning, and personalised adjustments, plus fresh water each morning.

A real highlight was the food throughout the trip, which was consistently excellent. Breakfasts, lunches, and dinners were varied, fresh, and full of flavour, with excellent vegan options carefully arranged by Lam. We also enjoyed memorable meals in local family homes and great recommendations for restaurants and street food, all of which enhanced the experience.

The itinerary allowed us to see a great deal of Vietnam, including highlights such as cycling through rural areas, exploring local villages, visiting the tunnels near Ho Chi Minh City, canoeing in Halong Bay, snorkelling at Whale Island, and the overnight sleeper train from Hue to Hanoi. We especially loved Hoi An and our two-night stay there. Halong Bay was beautiful but very busy with tourists.

We met a fantastic group of like-minded travellers, and the WhatsApp group was invaluable for updates, photos, and organising evenings together. It has also helped us stay in touch long after the trip.

Hotels were generally very good, clean, and comfortable, with some excellent facilities, though we often arrived late and left early, limiting time to enjoy them. The frequent one-night stays made the trip feel quite fast-paced, and a few two-night stops would have improved the overall experience and reduced the need for constant packing. The final hotel in Hanoi was less suitable for a group of our size, particularly regarding luggage storage and breakfast space.

Exodus also handled unexpected travel disruption extremely well, rearranging flights at short notice due to the Gulf conflict and covering an additional hotel night, with no extra cost to us.

Overall, this was a fantastic, well-organised trip offering excellent value for money. Vietnam is an amazing destination, the cycling is rewarding, the food outstanding, and the support team first-class. Despite a few itinerary pacing improvements that could be made, we would highly recommend this experience.

On the telephone your people were…

On the telephone your people were helpful and informative. My only complaint is that I don't consider your brochure to be as good as it was in the past. I feel that previously you gave more weather info in the form of graphs for likely rain fall and temperature for the selected location, these no longer appear.

Highlights of Albania

We just experienced a wonderful, memorable and fun trip to middle and southern Albania. The scenery is varied, majestic and breathtaking with a lot of open space, mountains, lakes and rivers. It’s like discovering the United States state of Colorado but on the ocean. Their history is ancient, with historic sites which range from ancient Ilyrian, to Greek, Roman and Ottoman times.

The food is healthy, excellent and very much like Greek and Italian dishes. It seemed to us that most of the food is local farm to table and vegetarians and vegans will not have any issues finding something good.

We always felt safe in every city and town and one can walk around without safety concerns.

Our Exodus guide, Genti worked extremely hard to provide our group with a realistic, fun, engaging experience. He provided Phd level discussions and an outstanding itinerary that flowed very well.

All the hotels were in great locations to include old city centers and even one in a national park.

Discover Albania before the crowds arrive.

Thank you so much for sharing such a vivid and thoughtful review, Manuel! We’re delighted to hear that your journey through central and southern Albania was so memorable, and that you enjoyed the country’s stunning landscapes, rich history and welcoming atmosphere.

It’s wonderful to know that the variety of scenery - from mountains and lakes to coastal views - made such an impression, along with the cultural depth spanning Illyrian, Greek, Roman and Ottoman heritage. We’re also pleased that you enjoyed the food and found it fresh, varied and accommodating to different dietary preferences.

Your kind words about Genti are especially appreciated. His passion, knowledge and dedication clearly made a real difference to your experience, and we’ll be sure to pass on your feedback. It’s also great to hear that the itinerary and hotel choices added to the overall enjoyment of the trip.

Thank you again for your recommendation - Albania really is a special destination, and we hope to welcome you on another Exodus adventure soon.

Amalfi Coast Hiking

Spent 8 days hiking the Amalfi Coast Italy and loved every second of it. Such a fantastic trip and really well organized. Our guide Mattia was amazing. I loved having time to explore the different towns after our hikes and the visit to the volcano and Pompei was so informative and one of many highlights. Would highly recommend. An unforgettable experience!

Just returned from the Prosecco Hills…

Just returned from the Prosecco Hills walking trip and I can highly recommend it. A super smooth process from booking to flying home, the itinerary was well balanced, the logistics great and it just did what it 'said on the tin'. Our guide Michele was fantastic and couldn't have worked with more dedication. I'm looking forward to the next trip. Thank you!

Walking the China wall.

Walking the China wall.
What an amazing experience. Tony our guide was great, detailed knowledge of the history.
The accommodation was basic and comfortable, we lived like the locals - an experience in itself. There was always plenty of good quality local food every night. We never felt hungry.
The restaurants we went too were also well selected during the tour.
I would recommend this tour for anyone who wants a challenge.

Colombia

Colombia - culture, coffee & Caribbean - fantastic trip, full of variety; history, colourful towns, mountains, beaches, beautiful scenery and great food. David was a fabulous tour leader and local guides were excellent. Exodus is a great way to travel to really get to know a country with like-minded people. Always well organised and a great option for solo travellers

First Exodus trip, but not the last!

We are just back from doing the highlights of Ancient Greece as our first trip with Exodus. Averkios was a very enthusiastic and knowledgeable guide and we really enjoyed the fascinating itinerary and beautiful scenery. It was a really great set of people on the trip and we will certainly travel with Exodus again.
