A wonderful week in beautiful surroundings, lovely place to stay and good company
Although it was a walking holiday, the day(s) I spent in Lucca really stand out, as such a lovely town within complete city walls around which you can cycle.
Sarah could not be bettered. Knowledgeable, fun, encouraging, adventurous.
Spend time by the lovely pool in the grounds of the farmhouse.
A beautiful place worth exploring & best on foot. The local people were extremely friendly and makes you feel at home and very welcome. Another plus point is that they charge in Turkish Lira which means you can really stretch your dollar!
The selected hotel ; Onar Village Resort was wonderful. Especially all the serving crew. Customer service was 5-star and they do their daily task with so much personal pride & always with a smile! Service requests/response were very quick, be it for extra towels, fresh eggs/coffee...Exodus could not have choosen a better hotel.
She tried her best considering she was not feeling well. We did not get enough time to simply chill & soak in the atmosphere as her walking pace was quite fast.
Fly into Ercan (ECN) from Istanbul (IST) instead of via Larnaca (LCA). More convenient and the flight on TK is very pleasant. Simply pre-book a taxi from Ercan Taxi Service online & someone will meet you directly upon arrival. Safe & hassle-free.
My husband and I decided to climb Mt Kilimanjaro for our honeymoon. I didn’t have much climbing experience other that doing Snowdon a couple of times so I was a bit nervous!But once we met our group (12 of us total) and our guides I felt a lot more relaxed. The climb was tough especially on summit night. Nothing can prepare you for that! However we trooped on and all somehow made it to Uhuru!Coming down back to Kibo huts was hard too, but after that is was fine and the thought of a shower and a good stiff drink powered me along!
Wow, the whole trip was inspirational. I think trudging through the night and arriving at Gilmans Point at sunrise is definitely one of the best feelings ever. Once i reached to Gilmans I fell into a heap in the corner and sobbed my little heart out! Reaching Uhuru with my new husband by my side was amazing, it's quite hard to take everything in at that point, but knowing you've reached the roof of Africa just blows you away.I have to also point out how inspirational the porters were too. Incredibly strong and fit as they overtake you carrying bags and tents and stoves! Amazing guys!
Our group leader was JT, he was very helpful, caring, supportive and good fun as was all the other assistant guides especially Francis. Top guys who managed to get our whole group to Uhuru.
My advice would be don't worry! I spent sleepless nights thinking about climbing Kilimanjaro but i needn't have. When you're there enjoy the views, the people and try not to think too much about summit night. You might make it you might not, the fact that you've even attempted it is worth so much and it's an experience you'll never forget.
An interesting and varied trip that covered many different parts of Sri Lanka.
It was amazing to see the elephants bathing in the river at Pinnewala. We had a brilliant view from the terrace of the restaurant where we had lunch and were able to go down to the water to get a closer view... a little too close in my case when a tiny baby elephant decided to head-butt me. It's certainly an experience I will never forget!
I couldn't have had a better group leader. He made sure we had all the information we required for each day and answered any questions we had both about the country and the activities we were doing. He even managed to get us lunch when there were a cyclone in the area we were staying and the hotel had lost all power and part of their restaurant's roof. He always made us feel safe and at ease during the whole trip.
All the activities I did, both those as part of the trip and the optional ones, were really good so I would definitely recommend making the most of every opportunity when you're out there.
A great way to see Zambia and interact with the river life. Great exercise without being overly challenging.
Watching wild elephants on shore from the canoe - amazing! You can get much closer to the elephants in the canoe than you ever could safely on foot, and I got dozens of amazing photos.
Very professional, good humoured and patient.
Come prepared to leave some of your luggage behind. You don't need a lot of things in canoe (you are carrying everything with you) and you can pick it up at the end of the trip. If I had of known this in advance, I would have arrived prepared with my luggage separated as there way no time to do this on arrival. Also it gets a lot colder than you may think at night and the sleeping bags were quite thin, bring your own if you feel the cold.
Quite honestly, the trip was all I was hoping for – and more. Great scenery, friendly people, glimpses of amazing wildlife, weird and wonderful plants, interesting towns, opportunities to do things I’d always wanted to do (and some I’d never thought about doing before). This trip expanded my horizons.
I have to pick two - one easy, one tough. Easy: watching birds and monkeys as I drifted down a river in the Amazon Basin. Tough: looking out from behind an amazing waterfall after forcing myself to scramble, crawl and even climb through a low, narrow wet tunnel that most of our group declined!
Fabian was a real character, roguish, passionate and knowledgeable about his country (and armed with books to fil in the gaps in his knowledge of plants and wildlife), friendly, laidback, caring and reliable.
Be prepared for all weathers and large meals, be flexible and don't go with pre-conceived ideas. And don't ignore your group leader when he tells you that at high latitudes the sun can burn you even through heavy cloud on a cold day
My trip to Everest Base Camp was fantastic. Exodus group leader, Valerie Parkinson and team of Guides were extremely organised and helpful. The scenery was fabulous and it was amazing to spend 2 nights camping at Base Camp alongside an expedition team.
It was fantastic to camp at Base Camp and explore the area. It was great to see climbers on the icefall and to talk with climbers, climbing sherpas and the doctors in the Everest ER tent.
Valerie Parkinson was a fantastic leader. Her passion for the Himalayas was contagious. She was extremely organised and helpful and was a mine of information.
Go for it! Try to camp at Base Camp.
This was the second time I have done the Amalfi Coast trip: firstly by myself in 2005 and, after having such a lovely time, I decided to bring my husband and friends along.
No one moment in particular, but being in such an interesting and pretty part of the world makes the whole week worthwhile. The Walk of the Gods is great, as was the view from top on the first day's climb. The family- run hotel and being in a town not overrun with tourists is a great bonus.
Unfortunately, the only part of the trip that was disappointing for our group was the leader. He seemed a bit "over it" as far as being a group leader goes. While I appreciate he was unwell with a cold, he gave little or no advice, showed little knowleldge or interest in answering questions and generally was a bit useless. Having done this trip in 2005 with a different group leader (and having an expectation of Exodus providing us with a similarly enthusiastic leader), I was quite disappointed (and a little embarrassed as I had encouraged three others to come).
Definitely do the Amalfi Coast trip. The downhill walking can be tough on your knees, so take walking sticks if you think this may be an issue. On the walking days, think "moderate" for your rating; the "leisurely" part of the rating relates to the non-walking days. I also think a day-trip to Capri on your free day would be advisable.
Good well rounded trip with time allowed for plane malfunction contingencies. Guide excellent,walking challenging but doable and enjoyable, accommodation excellent. Good to have the few days in Kathmandu.
Climbing up to and viewing Taksang Monastery. Surviving Bhutanese driving .
Sonam was a brilliant person--inspirational, patient, informative and just a great (Top) guy.
Get fit, have all your medication with you, travel light and keep your mind open and curious..
A fantastic 5 days, with great support from Zohair, our guide, and his friendly team. The nights spent under the stars in the stunning scenery of Wadi Rum were very special, and the spectacular walk through the hills around Petra gave us the best way in and showed us so much more.
Sleeping on a rocky ledge surrounded by amazing rock scenery and with spectacular views - the best bedroom we've ever slept in!
Zohair was not just a good guide but a good conversationalist, providing interesting perspectives on Jordan and the Middle East
If you like mountains and desert, Wadi Rum is one of the very best - make sure you sleep under the stars
