A world of

WONDER

’m excited to share our 2022/2023 Exodus Collection with you. I have been inspired hearing stories from our customers who have experienced the very best of destinations this year, thanks to reduced international visitor traffic. Travel has never felt so rewarding and I can’t wait to reconnect with other travellers on my own trips in 2022. And that’s why we’ve made arranging our awardwinning adventures as seamless as possible, thanks to our industry-leading booking flexibility and complete financial protection. With timely travel advice from our experts and 24/7 support, we’ll help you navigate the latest travel changes so you can continue to enjoy a stress-free travel experience (p7). Looking to try something new this year? Why not follow our local experts as they take you beyond the guidebook

towards frozen waterfalls in Iceland? (p12). Or if you want to book a trip further afield, head to Sri Lanka where our guides will show you where to spot leopards on game drives in Yala National Park and tell you about the fascinating legends behind the cave temples at Dambulla. As of this year, we’re proud to be the first tour operator to set the goal of being Nature Net Positive by 2024 with our Nature First commitment (p10-11). An important part of this plan is working with biodiversity experts, Rewilding Europe, on an innovative project in the Italian Apennines, through which we are rewilding 100 square metres for every customer that books on an adventure with us. I hope our Exodus Collection leaves you inspired to book an unforgettable adventure. Our award-winning local experts are looking forward to being your guide to the world once more.

Inspiring

ADVENTURE Since 1974

ore than 40 years ago, we took a group of adventurers to Kathmandu in the back of our Bedford truck on a mission to see the world for ourselves. It was the first Exodus trip, a chance to venture into the unknown with fellow explorers, to meet people along the way who could share perspectives different to our own, and to see the diverse destinations that they called home. Four decades on, our expert guides still look forward to welcoming you and your fellow explorers to discover the world around us and have been

working closely with our local partners to ensure our trips continue to offer a real spirit of adventure while travelling safely. Since our first trip back in 1974, our passion for travel, culture and discovery has only grown. So too have the friendships forged with those that warmly welcome us. As we support local communities that we visit, we continue to immerse ourselves in the sights, sounds, tastes and experiences of their wonderful homelands. Come and see for yourself on an Exodus adventure.

SPOTLIGHT ON

Giving Back TO NATURE

As a travel business that has always strived to see our natural world thrive, we’re taking a stand and setting a goal to become Nature Net Positive by 2024 with our Nature First commitment. We’re proud to be the first Tour Operator to set a goal of this kind, and it starts with rewilding the Apennines.

t Exodus Travels, we firmly believe travel should improve life for the people we meet, the places we visit and the planet we explore. For decades, we’ve worked closely with our broad network of contacts on the ground to develop innovative conservation projects that have involved engaging our destination communities in the protection and recovery of wildlife and ecosystems, while also helping to reduce human and wildlife conflict. In January 2020, we were one of the first tour operators to Declare a Climate Emergency, and at the beginning of 2021, we made a promise to our planet through our Nature First commitment to become nature net positive by 2024. To achieve this, we aim to halve our carbon footprint by 2030, continue supporting nature restoration projects, and compensate for all trip and flight emissions. Seeking to build on and expand the work of the Tourism Declares a Climate Emergency movement in uniting all parts of the sector in climate action, we have also become a signatory and launch partner of the Glasgow Declaration on Climate Action in Tourism, promising to help support the global commitment to achieve net-zero as soon as possible before 2050. One of the key ways we will be taking climate positive action is through rewilding. Recently partnering with NGO, Rewilding Europe, we’re promising to rewild 100 square metres of the Italian Apennines for each passenger who books on any adventure with us to help lock up atmospheric carbon and aid the recovery of local wildlife.

REWILDING THE APENNINES The wild Italian landscapes in the Apennines are particularly close to our hearts as Italy remains one of our most popular destinations for active and outdoor holidays. So, in January 2021, we partnered with leading biodiversity experts, Rewilding Europe, to help us work towards our Nature Net Positive goal and their aim of making Europe a wilder place. Our Nature and Carbon Corridors Project aims to help rewild 5,000 hectares of the Italian Apennines over five years. Rewilding helps to restore our nature’s ecosystems and biodiversity, so that wildlife can return and thrive, while also combatting climate change by increasing the land’s ability to absorb carbon. Capturing an estimated

85,000 tonnes of carbon over five years, these corridors will also help to increase the endangered Marsican bear population, and the recovery of the Apennine wolf, wild cat and other wildlife. While this project helps to tackle climate change and the recovery of biodiversity, it also shows the local communities that peaceful coexistence with wildlife is possible. We’re supporting Rewilding Europe in their development of a community carbon scheme that supports smallholders and landowners in rewilding their land, while mitigating any loss of agricultural income, so that it is mutually beneficial for both nature and the local community.

We’re not just facing climate crisis, but accelerated biodiversity loss. As a business we want to not only minimise our negative impacts, but proactively support the conservation and restoration of our natural world. The launch of our partnership with Rewilding Europe was our first step. Now we’re making our Nature Net Positive commitment, in order to ensure our adventures give more back to nature than they take.

The planet we love to explore is facing unprecedented challenges, that not only include the ongoing climate crisis but biodiversity collapse. The unique ecosystems we discover on our adventures are vital for the survival of our global society but are left increasingly under threat. We want to take a stand by making a Nature Net Positive commitment to our planet. Take a look below to see how we’re putting Nature First by seeking to remove and reduce negative impacts and outweigh them with our efforts to restore nature through our trips, our partnerships and our giving.

TRAVEL

Over half of our customers choose to travel solo – and why not? A big part of the Exodus Travels’ experience is meeting and exploring with like-minded travellers. Take a look below to discover the reasons why it’s one of our most popular ways to travel.

Your group You may be a solo traveller, but trust us, you’re not alone. With guests joining us from the UK, Europe, and North America, you’ll be part of a group who all have a passion for adventure that only enhances your experience. Often, our travellers make lifelong friends on our trips, returning to us to arrange more trips together.

Everything’s taken care of On our guided group trips you are free to relax and enjoy the experience as everything has been taken care of. All of your routes and stops have been meticulously planned to showcase your destination’s highlights and local gems, and your luggage is transported each day. You can also spend as much or as little time with other travellers as you want.

Experienced local leaders Going guided means you’ll benefit from your leader’s insider knowledge of the region, exploring hidden spots off the tourist trail that only a local would know how to find. Your guide also takes control of the trip logistics and acts as a host to ensure there’s always a relaxed, sociable group dynamic.

Meal times and evenings

Your room To avoid the need for costly single supplements, we’ll match you in a comfortable twin room if you’re happy to share. Or if you’d prefer to stay in a single room for the duration of your trip, we can arrange this for you at a very reasonable cost.

You’ll always enjoy an inclusive atmosphere with our guided group adventures, from taking part in daily activities to group dining experiences. Our expert guides take you to the best local restaurants where you can share stories with like-minded travellers and have great suggestions for places you can explore solo on free evenings.

Costa Rica Enjoy canopy walks with Johnny Wanderlust Top Conservation Guide winner 2019 A legend among tour guides in Costa Rica, renowned naturalist, Johnny Villalobos, always impresses travellers with his outstanding local knowledge of Costa Rica’s unique ecosystem and teeming biodiversity. You’ll find Johnny in his element taking groups on a cruise through the wildlife-rich waterways in Tortuguero National Park, hiking past lava fields near the Arenal Volcano and guiding visitors through the misty Santa Elena Cloud Forest Reserve. When asked what his favourite moments are, he explained, “For me, it’s the canopy walks which travellers always opt-in to do - and for good reason. You get to see what trees and wildlife exist in the middle of the cloud forest, in what we call ‘the hanging gardens of Central America’”. Discover Costa Rica

When you’re walking through the canopy, it’s like discovering a whole new level of biodiversity. Once you go to the top, you can see vibrantly coloured butterflies, hummingbirds and so many other things you would never have seen from the ground – it’s a truly unique experience.

Notable highlights along the way include spotting the island’s signature animal at Lemur Park, seeing the bubbling geysers of Analavory and uncovering the colourful Mahafaly and Antandroy tombs in Zombitse National Park. However, one of the most memorable moments for Armel, “is when we all get together for a Malagasy breakfast, swap stories and watch the incredible sunrise. With a full day’s trek ahead, I share with the group places where I’ve spotted Ring-tailed Lemurs and the Verreaux’s Sifaka when trekking near the Canyon des Makis. This park is like Madagascar’s garden of Eden.” Cycle Madagascar

YOUR GUIDE TO DISCOVERY & WILDLIFE

DISCOVERY & WILDLIFE

xplore some of the most iconic lands and civilisations on Earth, from the ruins of the mighty Mayan empire to the bustling streets of Beijing. Exodus cultural tours are designed to take you to the heart of your destination, whether it’s guiding you through the captivating chaos of Morocco’s souks, or setting your taste buds alight with wine from Stellenbosch. From the Arctic to the African savannah, nothing beats the thrill of being breathtakingly close to the world’s most incredible wildlife. Discover Darwin’s enchanted isles on a Galapagos cruise, look into the amber orbs of a Bengal tiger in India, or go on safari to catch the Great Migration thundering across the mighty Mara River on one of our wildlife trips.

CHOOSING YOUR ADVENTURE On the following pages you’ll find key information and highlights for a range of our Discovery & Wildlife trips. To help you choose the right adventure we provide an activity level grading (see below) and a url to take you to the trip’s website page for more detailed itineraries, trip notes, customer reviews and departure dates. And our experts are always happy to answer any queries via a ‘live chat’ session online or over the phone.

ACTIVITY LEVELS All of our trips feature Activity Level icons as guides to the type of itinerary and level of challenge you can expect to encounter while travelling on our holidays. The information below explains what each activity level means, so you can make sure you find the right trip for you.

LEISURELY

MODERATE

SPLIT GRADES

Designed for people who are in good health, enjoy the outdoors and want a relaxing trip packed with interest.

Requires a spirit of adventure and some fitness, as the trip may involve more activities or longer journeys.

In order to provide more accuracy, where a trip falls between two grades we use an intermediate or ‘split’ grade – for example, Level 2 (Leisurely/Moderate).

WILDLIFE RATINGS In addition to the activity level, each Wildlife trip has also been classified with a grade of three, four or five ‘paw marks’ to help you find the right trip.

Designed for people with a general interest in wildlife, but who also want to experience some of the other highlights of the region or country.

A more dedicated wildlife itinerary where the majority of time is spent in wildlife rich areas such as national parks or nature reserves.

YOUR GUIDE TO POLAR EXPEDITIONS

POLAR

ake a voyage to the ends of the Earth on an awe-inspiring journey to the polar regions of the Arctic or Antarctic. Here, you’ll find an icy wilderness made up of some of the most beautiful and wild scenery you could imagine, enormous icebergs in incredible shades of blue and a range of fascinating wildlife, including Polar bears, walrus, penguins, seals and whales. Regions once reserved for ground-breaking pioneers and seasoned adventurers, these days you can explore the poles in comfort on one of our Polar expeditions. Our small ships are crewed by committed staff with extraordinary levels of experience who will make sure you have the trip of a lifetime.

CHOOSING YOUR ADVENTURE On the following pages you’ll find key information and highlights for a range of our Polar trips. To help you choose the right adventure we provide an activity level grading (see below) and a url to take you to the trip’s website page for more detailed itineraries, trip notes, customer reviews and departure dates. And our experts are always happy to answer any queries via a ‘live chat’ session online or over the phone.

SMALL SHIPS MAKE THE DIFFERENCE The key to really making the most of your time in Polar waters is to ensure maximum shore and zodiac time. Ships with more than 200 passengers often find their landing sites are limited, and the logistics of disembarking the ship’s complement into zodiacs can be slow. Our small expedition ships generally offer twice daily ‘off-ship’ activities – both morning and afternoon – with waiting time being almost non-existent.

LEISURELY

MODERATE

SPLIT GRADES

Designed for people who are in good health, enjoy the outdoors and want a relaxing trip packed with interest.

Requires a spirit of adventure and some fitness, as the trip may involve more activities or longer journeys.

In order to provide more accuracy, where a trip falls between two grades we use an intermediate or ‘split’ grade – for example, Level 2 (Leisurely/Moderate).

WILDLIFE RATINGS In addition to the activity level, each Polar trip has also been classified with a grade of three, four or five ‘paw marks’ to help you find the right trip.

GO ONLINE Designed for people with a general interest in wildlife, but who also want to experience some of the other highlights of the region or country.

A more dedicated wildlife itinerary where the majority of time is spent in wildlife rich areas such as national parks or nature reserves.

A wholly focused wildlife trip where every aspect – vehicle, accommodation, and guide are geared up to immerse you in, and educate you about the local fauna.

YOUR GUIDE TO WALKING & TREKKING

WALKING & TREKKING W

e’ve been trekking the globe for more than four decades, and we offer the best range of walking holidays worldwide. Meander through lush Alpine meadows, climb down craggy cliffs to a secluded beach cove in Greece or tackle some of the world’s highest peaks on one of our trekking tours. Our adventures let you take it all in, with your experienced guide leading the way.

CHOOSING YOUR ADVENTURE On the following pages you’ll find key information and highlights for a range of our guided Walking & Trekking trips. To help you choose the right adventure we provide an activity level grading (see below) and a url to take you to the trip’s website page for more detailed itineraries, trip notes, customer reviews and departure dates. And our experts are always happy to answer any queries via a ‘live chat’ session online or over the phone.

ACTIVITY LEVELS While it’s impossible to be precise about how easy or hard a trek may be, we’ve worked hard to give you a practical guide to what you can expect from each trip. We take into account factors such as the length of trek and walking day, trail conditions underfoot, average altitude, maximum altitude and average gain/loss per day. If you want to push yourself, we can provide the challenge, but many of our walking holidays are exactly that – holidays. The activity level dial is your at a glance check for how challenging the trip will be. For more information please visit exodus.co.uk/activity-levels

CHALLENGING

TOUGH

If you are of good health, and enjoy gentle exercise, these are an ideal introduction to a walking holiday. You would normally walk for two to five hours during the day, and some walks may be optional.

Most people who enjoy a weekend walking at home will enjoy a Moderate trip although you need to be in good health and reasonably fit. A walking day is normally five to seven hours, with general underfoot conditions being fair.

Challenging trips require confidence in your ability and physical condition. They involve extended periods trekking on mountainous terrain. Walking days are usually between six and eight hours, although they may be longer for passes or peaks.

We recommend previous trekking experience, preferably at altitude. You need confidence in your ability to trek for many days over difficult terrain. Extremes of altitude and weather may be encountered; stamina is essential as walking days last six to nine hours.

13-5

TOUGH+

SPLIT GRADES

MULTI-LEVEL MULTI-LEVEL GRADES

This level combines elements of a Tough trip, but includes climbing a glaciated peak. You must have experience of using specialist equipment like ice axes and crampons. Peak days can be very long, you may be on your feet for 11 hours or more.

When a trip falls between two grades we use an intermediate or split grade – for example, Level 2 (Leisurely/Moderate).

On some trips it may be possible to switch between Moderate and Challenging level walks.

UK WALKING FROM COAST TO COAST Best for rural charm Enjoy sweeping views of some of England’s most notable landscapes, discover three National Parks and strike this legendary walk off your bucket list. The Coast-to-Coast walk was first made famous in 1973 by Alfred Wainwright in his book of the same name and remains one of the most popular walking routes in the British Isles. Travel from Cumbria’s St Bees on the shores of the Irish Sea to the stunning village of Robin Hood’s Bay in Yorkshire. With the route passing through the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and the breathtaking North York Moors, it makes an unforgettable experience. Moderately challenging, but thoroughly worth it.

FRANCE, SWITZERLAND, ITALY TOUR DU MONT BLANC Best for a sense of achievement A challenging 12-day circuit that explores the Mont Blanc region and the surrounding mountains and valleys. With your luggage transported by van you can set your own pace to walk marked trails that meander through the French, Swiss and Italian Alps. Starting in Chamonix the route passes through alpine pastures, woodland and farming villages and affords spectacular views of the Aiguille du Tour and its glacier. Other highlights include the highest pass of the route, Grand Col Ferret, where the Mont Blanc massif separates from the Pennine Alps. With unspoilt views of Mont Blanc, you’ll experience a thorough sense of achievement on this walking trip to remember.

PORTUGAL WALK THE ALGARVE’S WILD WEST Best for wild coastline Explore the Sagres Peninsula on this leisurely route that takes you through the unspoilt vistas of the Western Algarve. With lush flora, dramatic seascapes and imposing cliffs, this startingly unspoilt route provides easy-to-follow trails through meadows, beaches and traditional villages. Highlights include particularly scenic sections of the Rota Vicentina trail and the delicious Algarvian cuisine. Bird enthusiasts will appreciate the 190 species that call this region their home, while a trip to the Cabo de Sao Vincente lighthouse, positioned at Europe’s most south westerly point, provides a memorable moment to take in the majesty of the Atlantic ocean.

ITALY WALKS IN THE ITALIAN DOLOMITES Best for the adventurous An extraordinarily scenic tour that takes in the dramatic beauty of the Italian Dolomites, this week-long walking trip covers the majestic Alta Pusteria Valley. Highlights include a trek along a high ridge path on the Austrian border and a circular walk around the Tre Cime. These three distinctive obelisks of sheer rock have become synonymous with the region and provide a multitude of photo opportunities. Stay in a 4-star hotel complete with spa, sauna and steam room for this single centre trip. On this trip, adventure and downtime go hand in hand. Walks in the Italian Dolomites

ITALY PATHS OF THE AMALFI COAST Best for historical interest Known for its beauty, the Amalfi Coast offers countless trails and footpaths to explore. On this self-guided trip you’ll follow old mule tracks through hillside villages, past lemon groves and gorges and discover traditional towns with an array of architecture. Highlights include trekking the well-known ‘Path of the Gods’ and a visit to the Bay of Naples where you’ll have the opportunity to see the incredible Roman remains of Pompeii. As well as fine Italian cuisine and the gorgeous coastline, there’s enough downtime in this tour to take things at your own pace and really enjoy la dolce vita.

MALTA - GOZO WALKING ON GOZO Best for tranquillity Sleepy towns and Baroque architecture await discovery on this laid-back walking tour on the Maltese island of Gozo. Thought to be the legendary Calypso’s Isle of Homer’s Odyssey, this beautiful, mystical place is a pleasure to explore by foot. Stay in a good quality hotel all week and enjoy self-guided walks that you can take at your own pace. With a mild climate and magnificent coastal paths, you’re free to find colourful fishing villages and hidden coves. When the walking is done, kick back at your secluded hotel which boasts its own tranquil gardens and beautiful views of the rugged coast.

YOUR GUIDE TO CYCLING

CYCLING O

ur cycling holidays come in all shapes and sizes, from gentle tours along the Portuguese coast, to a fully supported expedition in Morocco’s High Atlas mountains. On two wheels you can fully engage with your surroundings and really immerse yourself in a destination, and nothing beats the satisfaction of exploring a country under your own steam.

CHOOSING YOUR ADVENTURE On the following pages you’ll find key information and highlights for a range of our guided Cycling trips. To help you choose the right adventure we provide an activity level grading (see below) and a url to take you to the trip’s website page for more detailed itineraries, trip notes, customer reviews and departure dates. And our experts are always happy to answer any queries via a ‘live chat’ session online or over the phone.

SUPPORT WHEN YOU NEED IT On the majority of our group cycling trips, a support vehicle accompanies the riders. These carry tools, refreshments, and even (if you’re tired) you! This allows people of different fitness levels to enjoy the same trip. On many trips you can also choose to hire an e-bike – these are regular bicycles with a battery-powered ‘pedal assist’ to give you a boost when you need it and helping you cruise over tougher terrain. Look at the ‘At a glance’ section of the trip information to see if this option is available.

ACTIVITY LEVELS While it’s impossible to be precise about how easy or hard a bike ride may be, we’ve worked hard to give you a practical guide to what you can expect from each trip. We take into account factors such as gradient, length of the cycling day and road (or off road!) conditions. We also consider the number of cycling days, as there can be a cumulative effect from tiredness on a longer trip. If you want to push yourself, we can provide the challenge, but most of our cycling holidays are exactly that – holidays. The activity level dial is your at a glance check for how challenging the trip will be. For more information visit exodus.co.uk/activity-levels#cycle

LEISURELY

MODERATE

CHALLENGING

If you can ride a bike and enjoy gentle exercise, these trips are an ideal introduction to a cycling holiday. No routes are entirely flat, so expect some short climbs and descents.

Most people who enjoy a weekend riding at home will enjoy a Moderate trip. You need to be in good health and reasonably fit. Ideal for occasional cyclists, or as a more relaxed trip for fitter riders.

Challenging trips require confidence in your ability and physical condition. They are equivalent to an extended period of cycling at home.
