Scandinavia Tours in December 2025

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.

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.

Excellent tour guide . Excellent driver, . Well planned tour. Lots of enjoyable experiences. Great group of fellow travelers. I enjoyed the Chopin concert and the polka dance the best. All of the trip was excellent and the local guides were phenomenal!

Fantastic itinerary, we had so many amazing experiences, we learnt a lot about the culture, history and people. We experienced many things that we would not have if we had travelled alone. Our guide was passionate and entertaining. He was a font of knowledge and added to our enjoyment I have not felt as relaxed travelling solo, knowing that all the transport, porterage etc was taken care of allowed me to enjoy the experience without the stress.

I was completely satisfied with this Collette tour. The itinerary was great! We saw all the “must see” places that come to mind when thinking about NYC. I do wish it could have been one day longer with a little more free time. If I had to pick a favorite experience, it would be the Rockettes, altho they edged out the other places by only a tiny margin. I loved the location of the hotel and took advantage of that by getting out and walking every evening after the scheduled itinerary had ended for the day. I was able to see lots of things so easily in the area because of that location. I enjoyed the places that the itinerary took us for meals. Great and fun choices! Thank you for a great experience!
