Northern Europe Escorted Tours and Guided Trips

My tour was fantastic. Everything about it. From our tour guide to the local guides, to the accommodations. To choose just one experience as my favorite would be impossible. Every day was a joy. Many times, after a couple of weeks you are looking forward to going home, despite a good experience. On our last day of this tour, and I know many others felt this way too, I found myself wishing we had more days and I wanted more. In the words of a famous American actor, I'll Be Back!

I loved the Rockettes and the Nine Eleven Memorial although the time there was not nearly enough The buses were clean and drivers very courteous. Traffic horrendous but we know there is nothing Collette can do about that. We liked that we could walk to most areas of interest around Time Square

This tour had everything on my bucket list to do while in New York City. Wonderful tour guides, great accommodations close to everything. All details taken care of, from travel to and from, most meals, tax and tips, Rockettes show and Broadway show included! The 911 Memorial and Ellis island and Statue of Liberty tours were wonderful. Also enjoyed free time to shop.

We had a great 2 weeks in Saudi with guide Abdu, laughing and learning all the way. This small group was well traveled, many with Exodus. This was our 3rd Exodus trip, though we've traveled a lot independently. After Saudi we flew to Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar (where we "celebrated" our 100th country visited; we recommend adding these places for independent travel). But Saudi Arabia is big, complex and we were so happy to have a guide like Abdu to explain everything. We peppered him nonstop with questions and he was informed and forthcoming on any topic. Had we not toured with a guide and group we would have missed a lot. We never found the bus rides (or train rides) overly long or taxing and felt very safe even on some (gorgeous) winding mountain roads. We enjoyed every meal, hotels were very nice with comfy beds, etc. And the farm stay, sleeping pads on the floor, was fantastic. Don't be put off by thinking it's too rustic! During our travels we found infrastructure to be modern, clean and efficient, English spoken widely.

Short but sweet! I loved Namibia. Expect breathtaking desert views and wonderful people. My heart is full, and I’m very glad I got to discover a new country and learn more about its culture and history. You will experience longer drives to reach the different destinations maybe for me the only downside of the trip. But if you want to see a lot of the country in a short period of time, it’s probably the only way.

The tour was comprehensive, led by knowledgeable guides. Many days started earlier than I would have preferred, but that is the trade-off for including as much as this tour did. The farms we visited were among the best parts of the tour, with captivating demonstrations and excellent meals. The food throughout the tour was, for the most part, excellent, although meals at hotels did not measure up to those off-site.
