That is what Exodus Travels was founded upon over 45 years ago, and what the company is still all about. Discovering countries, cultures, environments, cities, mountain ranges, deserts, coasts, and jungles; exploring this amazing planet we live on.
Exodus knows what makes you tick when it comes to holidays. It’s a desire shared by so many others: a yearning to visit new places and come home with a real sense of what they’re all about. This means delving into local traditions, cultures, cuisine, lifestyles – anything that contributes to its unique identity. At the same time, they always remember that they are only guests. Exodus travels courteously and respectfully, in smaller groups to minimize the impact, to ensure that every itinerary is a beneficial experience for everyone involved.

Corporate Social Responsibility
The Exodus Travels Foundation was established in 2019 to build upon decades of support by Exodus Travels for community-based social impact and conservation projects worldwide. The foundation allows them to expand their vision of harnessing the positive power of travel for the benefit of the people and places they visit.
Thanks to the generosity of clients and partners, as well as the extensive and dedicated global networks, the foundation can provide support for various transformative community empowerment and conservation projects in their destinations across the globe.
MISSION
The foundation's mission is to improve life through travel, particularly in hard-to-reach places.
FOCUS AREAS
The foundation focuses on two main areas:
Community empowerment: This involves creating more employment and income generation opportunities through tourism for disadvantaged, underrepresented, and hard-to-reach communities.
Conservation: The foundation engages destination communities in efforts to protect and recover wildlife and ecosystems, while also striving to reduce human-wildlife conflict.
Additionally, the foundation also provides disaster relief across their destinations when needed.
The trip might have been the absolute best of our lifetime (thus far). We particularly want to commend our guide Peter in the Guilin area-he was so incredibly attentive, energetic, enthusiastic-and absolutely dedicated to ensuring that our meals were 100% vegetarian.

The trip was not only memorable for the amount of animals we saw but also for the people and accommodations at the two camps where we stayed. Our first guide, BK, was a wealth of information about the animals, landscape and down to the plants and what they were used for. Everyday out was a learning experience with him. All the people at the camps were gracious and the food was excellent.
Our second camp in the Okavanga was just as good as the first as far as the staff, accommodations, food and animals. After our experience at the first camp we amazed that the high quality remained the same. Our guide, G, made sure we were able to enjoy every experience including a rush through the bush to witness a cheetah and an ensuing hunt that he heard over his radio.
In both camps there were enough guides out that if they saw something the other guides were informed which helped in seeing as much as possible. It was also nice that the concessions were large enough that we did not have vehicles following each other throughout the day.
Normally there is always something in a trip of this length that we think could be improved upon but this is the rare case where we cannot think of anything. From the time we left the States to when we returned it was one of the most hassle free vacations we took.
Perhaps emphasizing the use of the laundry facilities at the camps would be useful because of the luggage restrictions would be the only thing I can think of as an improvement to future clients.
