Have you been on a Citizen Science departure with us yet?
🌿 We continue our partnership with tech science company NatureMetrics and the International Union of Conservation of Nature (IUCN) to build the eBioAtlas – a global atlas of life in the world’s river basins and wetlands. As part of our commitment to give back to nature, our customers measure biodiversity on selected adventures by collecting environmental DNA from freshwater samples. This process relies on species leaving traces of their DNA in environments like waterways, wetlands, and forests. After the trip, our customers receive a report of their findings.

Have you been to Vietnam & Cambodia?
"Just finished an incredible journey through Vietnam and Cambodia and I'm still buzzing! 😍 The landscapes were even more stunning than I imagined, especially cruising through the serene Halong Bay and the vibrant lights & nightlife of Hoi An. The highlight of the trip was discovering the ancient temples of Angkor – it felt like stepping back in time but my best part was meeting an amazing group of fellow travelers who quickly became friends. This adventure has set the bar high for future trips!" 🚶♂️ - Johani P

Ever loved one of our trips so much that you wanted to do it ALL again? 😍 Well, Exodus adventurer, Geoff, has done just that!
He's completed our Sierra de Aitana trek an incredible 5️ times! We caught up with the amazing Geoff to find out what it is about this particular trip that keeps him coming back:
"I have always enjoyed my trips to Aitana. Jose Miguel is an outstanding leader, worthy of his Exodus award a few years back - his humour, support and encouragement, knowledge of the area and willingness to help with guests' problems help make the walking week very much a pleasure. The accommodation has always been good, with a particular area devoted to Exodus where guests can make tea/coffee and enjoy local snacks - at no cost! The packed lunches made by Jose are worthy of mention - substantial and tasty, and tailored to individual likes/dislikes. Hotel food is home cooked and well known - locals go there for lunch! The walks take in the best of the local scenery, usually away from the crowds and well within the holiday grading. Up on the limestone fells, with no-one else around it is hard to believe that Benidorm is a short ride away."

I've been guiding Exodus Travel mountain trips since 2006 (for 18 years now). When not leading trips, I am involved in the development of new outdoor adventure itineraries. My passion for the mountains and the rigours of the outdoors, combined with the warm-heartedness of the local people, left an indelible impression on me a long time ago. It will be my great pleasure to show you this part of the world and the area which holds a special place in my heart - the Dinaric Alps."

What's your favourite part of India to travel in?
For Charlotte, it was her recent trip to Kerala: "The peaks amongst the tea plantations of Kerala offer some of the world’s best views, and the incredible food means you won’t lose a single calorie getting to the top!
Our guide San in Kerala was great. He told us loads about the country as well as making sure we always knew what where we were, and what to see. The food on the hiking, arranged through the group, was especially brilliant - there no way planning your own routes and hiring local guides directly you’d be that lucky to have such a great experience."

🏆 LEADER AWARDS!🏆 We're thrilled to announce that our leader of the year, for 2024 is Edwind Colque, who leads our groups in Peru! Born in Iquitos, a Peruvian port city situated in the Loreto Region, Edwind and his family later moved to the cosmopolitan city of Cusco. It’s here, that a job opportunity opened up for him to become a porter on the Inca Trail. As he trekked through the dense cloud forests, traversed over Dead Women’s Pass (4,215m), walked through the iconic Sun Gate and on towards Machu Picchu for the very first time, Edwin knew in that moment that all he wanted to do was to train to become a fully qualified tour guide. “I knew it wouldn’t be easy, as it’s a big responsibility to be accountable for human lives, but I saw first-hand how rewarding it was and the great experiences the tour guides had. On my second trek around the Inca Trail as a porter, one of the tour guides took me under her wing and showed me key parts of the job and I said to her that one day I’ll be trekking alongside her as a guide – I’m so glad life took me in this direction.” Join us in celebrating the incredible leader he is, and this well deserved award!

And while the other senses all play an important part in shaping our adventures, there’s something to be said about the epic sounds we encounter on our travels. Not only does sound have the power to transport you back to specific moments or places where you hold fond memories, but sounds can also spark newfound inspiration, encouraging you to look into places you never thought about travelling to before. We've collaborated with @Citiesandmemory and some incredible international artists who have collected sounds from our favourite destinations and transformed these into musical compositions, designed to take our travellers on a sensory journey around the world! Taking you from the depths of the Costa Rican rainforest to serene lakes filled with birdsong in Finland to a Masai Mara warriors' song and dance, this playlist is sure to immerse and inspire you to head to these wonderful destinations or bring back joyful memories of past Exodus trips! 🎵 Make sure to discover the Sounds of Adventure here: https://bit.ly/3TJW6wi #SoundsofAdventure #TravelSounds #adventuretravel #grouptravel #masaimara #sonictourism #exodusadventuretravels

What about searching for Snow Leopards with our incredible leader, Valerie? ...❄️ “We arrived in Leh at 8am after a 3am start in Delhi. After a short rest and lunch, we drove by jeeps for 1.5hrs to the Shang Valley. Near the village of Chokdo a snow leopard had killed a cow and was protecting its dinner. It was about 50m away and we watched it for about 2.5hrs. At one point a fox tried to steal a bite but was quickly chased away by the snow leopard. The clients came on the trip with no expectations of seeing a snow leopard. To see one so close up on day one has surpassed all their expectations. We are heading to Rumbak tomorrow so hoping for more sightings. We have great spotters with us.” - Valerie Parkinson (our incredible leader)

The project will fence off 10% of selected community members’ land, leaving the remaining 90% accessible for wildlife like elephants and impala to roam.
