Great Holiday Again
October 2, 2024

We have just completed our second holiday with Exoticca, and have already booked our third.
We had a 10 day tour of Albania and could find very little to complain about.
The holiday was well organised, The coach was comfortable and well driven. Our local guide was very knowledgable, and all our hotels were of a high standard.

Namibia/Zimbabwe trip
September 27, 2024

We have just returned from a well organised 15 day holiday. We were met at the airport by a very cheerful, polite and knowledgeable Namibian guide called Alfie. The whole trip, from the places we visited, food, accommodation and the planning were great.
We didn't know what to expect but our group of seven all got along very well and had great fun together.
We would definitely consider another trip with Exoticca.

English Heritage
September 16, 2024

The highlight of the trip was Stonehenge for me; but adding a visit to Oxford, Cambridge, Stratford-Upon-Avon, Liverpool, York, Windsor, and of course London - all that made this trip worthwhile, informative, scenic, and once in a lifetime experience. The guide and the driver were professionals with a lot of humor. They made my stay extra cheerful, next to just having a vacation or any other trip!

This was my first solo group travel. I was amazed at the beautiful tours and stes I experienced. The group I travel with was amazing. We all got along, no issues no problems.

Giorgio Showed Us Switzerland!
September 9, 2024

This is a jam packed tour that has it all. Looking out the tour bus window in the countryside was one of my personal highlights, as Switzerland is literally a postcard everywhere you look. But the guide, Giorgio, made this trip so memorable! We saw so many places, but Giorgio was our constant. He doe storytell and share his past experiences around Switzerland.

Highly recommended.

This trip was incredible. Exotica took care of everything. Logistically brilliant! We had 10 flights in 2 weeks including all the transfers, trips & accommodation. We were met at every single airport and transported to accommodation with clear instructions for the next day. All the guides and tours were well worth the early starts.
Thank you Exotica 💖

Wife and I had a great experience. We are not complainers and early wake ups are not a problem for us. We wanted to pack in as much of Peru as possible and that we did. We did not upgrade hotels but they were more than adequate, although next trip we may upgrade just for the location of the hotels. While in Cuzco, we were more in the industrial area, and it's probably worth upgrading if closer to downtown. Beware of other reviewers on here. We were put in differnet groups and had complainers in each group. Some tried to cancel tours with no notice because they were too tired, and others wanted to be hand held the entire time to which they should have paid for a private tour at that point. This was a group tour, and that added to the fun in my opinion because we were able to meet differnet people from around the world. Tour guides were always on time and very helpful even outside tour topics. Highly recommend and will use Exoticca again.

The magic of Peru
September 5, 2024

A trip well organized and well delivered by Exoticca, at a very competitive price. The accommodations were as or better than advertised. The on location organization was flawless and very flexible to adapt to changes in schedules by third party vendors i.e air carriers and rail. Finally a very personalized approach during all the trip made for a great experience.
