NORTH AFRICA & MIDDLE EAST SMALL GROUP JOURNEYS

Welcome to

North Africa & the Middle East

EXODUS SMALL GROUP JOURNEYS Exodus groups are small, normally 8-16 people, meaning our trips aren’t disruptive to the places we visit. Plus, a smaller number of guests creates a good group dynamic; you’ll get to know a range of people with a shared interest in travel. With a local expert on all our guided group trips, you’ll get a unique insight into local life. They know the stories behind the sights and take all the hassle out of travel arrangements, so you can focus on enjoying every moment of your adventure.

EXODUS TRAVEL STYLES Premium Enjoy upgraded accommodation in unique, hand-picked properties providing exceptional comfort and convenience.
