Taste of Portugal - April 4-11th Exodus Guide Carla Costa
Highlights of Portugal
Richard and Janet, CT, United States, Apr 2026
In general we had a great time on this tour. Our guide, Carla Costa was enthusiastic, passionate, and a good leader. She did a nice job managing and accommodating the different needs of the various group members. She also did a good job explaining the history and culture of Portugal. However, I would have preferred a bit less time visiting the churches read more and instead have an opportunity in Lisbon particularly to visit the world-class aquarium or a museum. The food in general was good, given that this was somewhat of a budget tour. Also, in actuality there was less free time than the published itinerary. While most of the hotels were good, I was disappointed with the location of the hotel in Porto and in Lisbon both being quite a ways away from tourist attractions and most restaurants.
Japan Highlights
Best of Japan
Bettina, NSW, Australia, Apr 2026
My first time in Japan and traveling with a group. Our guide Toshi was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. It is a good tour to get some first impressions of Japan. Despite being advertised as a tour requiring a certain fitness level, we didn’t explore some of the sights that required climbing stairs and took public transport where we could have walked.

Wonderful Tour
Canyon Country Showcase
Ashin, OH, United States, Mar 2026
The tour was really good, I saw some amazing places. I booked for twin sharing and got an amazing roommate. I wish there were some extra drop off points on the last day and the operator details were shared bit earlier than the trip.
We had a great time. We loved having a small group. Everyone got along great. We had a young guide. He was great. The accommodations were so nice. We experienced the true Japanese culture, plus a lot of Western culture. Japan is a lot different from America.
We enjoyed the places we went. The history was so interesting. The sights were beautiful. read more The Cherry blossoms were in bloom!! They are beautiful! The food was amazing. We really enjoyed the tea ceremony. I will say we did not need to see all the temples and shrines. We went to too many. I am sure there was something else we could have gone to. Otherwise, we had a great experience..

The tour was well organised and the tour leader/driver Taylor was exceptional both in knowledge and inclusiveness of the group.
