Exodus cycling tour to Sardinia - you won’t be disappointed
Exodus cycling tour to Sardinia was a faultless experience. Great cycling destination; great food, drink and accommodation; great office admin support
Walking the Prosecco Hills...WOW
Walking the Prosecco Hills was an absolutely wonderful.
Everything from Local Small Town Italian Living to San Marco Square Venice.
Exodus Travel far exceeded my travel company expectations.
The amazing Tour De Mont Blanc
My 3rd trip with Exodus gave the same excellent service I’ve come to expect.
The Tour De Mont Blanc 8 day trip was absolutely fabulous. Hris, our guide, was brilliant and led us up and down the challenging trails. Please read all Exodus trip notes carefully as they are accurate and tell you exactly what to expect.
A truly memorable trip.
Well done Exodus!
With over 47 years of experience with small group adventure travel, Exodus specializes in active cultural, walking & trekking, cycling and responsible wildlife tours. They offer more than 600 itineraries across more than 100 countries.
Adventure can take the form of serious and active adventures -- which may involve adrenaline-producing, off-the-beaten-path roughing-it trips to the most remote areas of the world -- or food and wine, premium (five-star), family, or cultural adventures to iconic destinations, which involve more comforts and amenities.
What Makes Exodus Stand Out?
Booking flexibility
Award Winning
Tailor made adventures
Responsible tourism
Expert guides with extensive past experience
Exodus understands that new difficulty that comes with traveling during the coronavirus. They are dedicated to offering flexible services so travelers can book with confidence. Travelers can feel safe when planning their next trip with Exodus’s promised refund guarantee, Covid-19 refund commitment and 21-day no fee flexibility.
The refund guarantee means that travelers will be refunded if they have to cancel for any reason. This also includes cancellations due to the coronavirus. Travelers can also transfer their trip for free up to 21 days before departure.
Creating great and adventurous trips is the top priority for Exodus. They offer many pre-planned tours, but they also work with travelers to add or change existing itineraries or even create one from scratch. This allows travelers to create the perfect trip that fits their travel style, schedule and budget.
Exodus is also dedicated to responsible travel in all of their tours. They strive to improve life for the planet, places and people they visit. Instead of meeting the base guidelines for eco-friendly travel, Exodus seeks more ways to leave a positive impact with their trips. This includes economic empowerment for local communities, reducing waste wherever possible and making lower carbon choices for their adventures.
Each trip is led by a knowledgeable guide who has extensive past experience which adds benefits to any trip. Before working with Exodus, many guides were professional archaeologists, wildlife guides, overland drivers, mountain leaders, diving and ski specialists as well as mountain bike gurus.
Who Will Enjoy Traveling with Exodus?
All ages
Active travelers
Outdoor and nature enthusiasts
Exodus travelers are a diverse bunch, and average between 35-65 years of age. However, any age traveler is welcome. Exodus creates great packages and tours for families as well as fully customized trips created from scratch.

Top Destinations
Exodus leads 600 + trips spanning all seven continents. From African safaris, to walking and wine in Italy and France to the sun-drenched Croatian coast, to trekking Patagonia, wildlife cruises in the Galapagos and cycling in Vietnam, Exodus has built out their global presence and has active adventures in nearly any destination a traveler could desire.
Exodus Travel Style
Exodus tours are designed for the active and adventurous traveler. This means that most tours include activities such as walking, cycling and safaris. However, for travelers who enjoy cultural and culinary, there are tours and activities for you as well. Exodus offers cultural trips based around food, festivals or family to name a few.
These active adventures vary by way of difficulty from level 1-10, attracting casual cyclists and hikers as well as enthusiasts looking to really push their physical limits.
Travelers can choose from guided groups, private groups, self guided tours or solo traveling. Within each travel style, Exodus offers all the same activities from cycling to wildlife and provides the top itineraries for that specific style to help travelers find what’s best for them.
Most accommodations are charming and locally run with 2-3 star ratings. There are some premium departures available as well as unique accommodation experiences whenever possible. Exodus travelers don’t mind the lower level of luxury as the experience and destination is the highest priority.
Why Choose a Tour With Exodus?
If you love experiencing a new destination whether that’s through the culture, unique wildlife or beautiful outdoors through active and adventurous activities, then Exodus is perfect for you. You love that sense of discovery, of challenging yourself and want to travel responsibly.
Exodus offers great tours already fully packaged, but for the traveler that likes more control over their perfect trip, they offer customizable trips. Travelers get to choose not only the destination but each activity they will partake in to perfectly match their travel style and budget.

This is a challenging hike. The altitude makes the steep ascents and descents
very demanding. But the scenery and the access to Inca sites that aren't
crawling in tourists makes it worth it. After having Choquequiaro to
ourselves for a full day the hordes of tourists at Machu Pichu were
definitely frustrating.
The full day that we got to spend at Choquequiro exploring the site.
Tomas has lots of experience, and a great sense of humour. Our sense was that
he might be bored with the guide routine, and the constant questions of
clients. Didn't get the sense of personal connection that we have had with
other guides on previous trips.
Assistant guide Jhonny still has lots of work to do on his knowledge, but was
very enthusiastic and I think the group felt a closer connection with him.
Really do need to respect the altitude! Slowly, Slowly is the way to approach
the hiking or you will crash and burn. Also learn to love cocoa tea! The sand
flies were a huge problem (don't know if this is seasonal or constant). Take
LOTS of bug repellant and protective clothing.
Crew (Guides, cooks, wranglers) looked after us really well. In fact, some
days it seemed too well. It is hard to do a step climb right after a very
heavy breakfast or lunch. There was always a several course meal prepared
and waiting.. even on the summit of a major pass.

A strenuous but rewarding trek, topped off with some fantastic sightseeing,
and of course Machu Picchu!
Great diversity of microclimates during the trek, as well as weather changes.
The trip definitely deserves its challenging rating, but the guides and
support staff helped all to enjoy this trek. The local people are welcoming.
This is one of the best treks I have had the opportunity to be a part of.
Hard to say. Exploring Choquequirao in the mist and almost to ourselves
after an intense day of climbing. Climbing Yanama Pass after a snowfall
amongst the glaciers. Arriving in the tropical forests of Lucabamba knowing
that our climbing was over. Seeing Andean condors one day and parakeets the
next. Trying chicha and cuy. And Machu Picchu, glorious despite the number
of people there, which I was dreading after eight days of being almost
isolated from anyone else but our group, but still found completely
breathtaking! Lastly, the group of walkers I was fortunate enough to
accompany on this trip. A diverse and wonderful group of people.
Edwind was simply amazing! His ability to keep the group motivated and
together through some tough climbing is noteworthy. Steep ascents and
different levels of conditioning can really spread people out over long
hikes, but he managed to keep everyone intact. Really responsive to
different members interests and remembering them over the course of a two
week trip. Joshua was also fantastic and very enthusiastic. They were both
loaded with information regarding the culture and natural surroundings.
The walking is strenuous, no doubt, but the rewards are well worth it. As
noted in previous reviews, the ascents and descents are steep and long with
almost no flat terrain. Insect issues previously mentioned are intermittent
but definitely need good repellant. I usually wear shorts and I definitely
paid for it! The weather was everywhere, from snow to tropical sun, so pack
accordingly. The camping sites and hotels were fantastic and the food was
amazing, especially considering the conditions in which it was prepared. All
in all, if you are physically prepared, I believe its one of the best trips
you will ever experience.
Special note to our chefs Beltram and Victor and assistant Isrrael. Their
food was phenomenal, especially considering it was cooked from equipment and
ingredients from the backs of mules. Also to Tibo and his group of
muleteers. It is awe inspiring to watch these men work.

It was a difficult trip for me, but the support of the Exodus staff made it
an excellent experience.
I think the final hike up to Llactapacta, and the realization that we had
made it up and down several steep climbs and descents, and we’re now on the
doorstep to Manchu Picchu, was my most inspirational moment.
Julio Llancay was an excellent group leader. He was always helpful and
understanding, and his interactions with us, the hikers, and the rest of the
support staff, the horsemen, cooks, and assistant leader, set a tone of
cooperation and friendship.
I believe that it is accurately rated as a challenging/tough trip, but after
experiencing the crowds around Manchu Picchu, it was worth the effort to
experience Choquequirao and the less crowded Inca sites.

This trip challenges you physically, mentally and emotionally. It provides
breathtaking scenery, camping in cloud forests, visiting Inca sites in
beautiful and inaccessible places and the chance to observe how humbly people
live in the harsh landscape. It fulfilled all of my expectations and more,
spectacular scenery, challenging walking and indulging in the Indiana Jones
experience. There was great camaraderie and our guides, Michael and Vladimir
were just the best. They had infinite cheerfulness and patience and were
determined that we would understand as much as possible about Andean culture,
past and present. My only regret is that this trek may be 'it', the best
one!
One every day! Camping on Inca terrraces, learning about how the Incas viewed
the Mayu, the Milky Way, standing on the usnu, the ceremonial platform at
Choquequirao surrounded by mountains, ravines and sparkling rivers whilst
clouds swirled around, the cardio workout exploring the Llama terraces,
walking down to Yanoma amongst wild lavender with horses passing, sitting on
a rock edge at San Abra pass at 4200m, surreal bathing in hot springs at
Santa Teresa with bats flitting overhead.
Michael ensured we had the best time. He made everything as easy as possible
for us. He was so patient taking photos of us at iconic spots and being an
archaeologist, we were in the hands of an expert. He has a great approach to
life and was always conscientious. A very genuine man who worked extremely
hard on many levels to make sure our holiday was perfect, which it was.
For those who are not super fit, do some training, legs, core and walking of
course. Take extra clothes, it is hot and sticky and not easy to wash or dry
clothes or towels.
If you have any doubts, do some training and go.

A challenging trek in Peru that managed to combine quiet trekking,
magnificent scenery, the remote city of Choquequirao and the spectacle of
Machu Picchu. Walking in remote areas of Peru, at times surrounded by
snow-capped mountaings, or maybe cloud forest, or then again coffee
plantations. Very varied and interesting at all times.
The guides and support staff added to the atmosphere, providing a friendly
and informative company. Helpful at all times, providing surprisingly good
food in very basic conditions and unexpected "extras" - like the very welcome
visit to the hot springs!
All-in-all and excellent trip.
Having a wild condor effortlessly flying past us at a distance of only 20m!
Excellent! Knowledgable about the Inca history, although sometimes a little
to mystical. Always in control and adaptable to changing situations. Always
felt safe with him, and the other support team around.
Walking poles essential. The bugs bite a lot so bug spray essential,
recommend always wearing long sleeves and long trousers.
Try the passion fruit smoothies!

This is one of the best trips I have done. This was my first visit to South
America - Peru is a beautiful country with fascinating history. The trekking
is hard but well worth the effort.
There were several, including Choquequirao where it was so quiet (only our
group plus 3 other people) and Machu Picchu, which although crowded is
spectacular. However, the most inspirational moment for me was the San Juan
pass; the conditions were perfect, the 360 degree views breath taking and
several Condors flying around when we arrived.
Frank was very passionate and knowledgeable about Peru and the Inca culture.
Jonnie was a great and enthusiastic co-leader on the trek.
The support team worked very hard to make sure we were comfortable on trek.
Prepare for the trek - it is hard with long ascents and descents but very
rewarding. Take plenty of insect repellent - mosquitos are prolific
particularly on the trek.
I was worried about arriving in Cusco and coping with the altitude, however,
the time spent in Cusco at the start of the trip was ideal to acclimatise.
