At first I didn't know how to use your self directed system had doubts asking machines my concerns instead of talk to real humans. I'm glad I was able to talk to a live person.
A guide is with us all the way from Rome to Florence and Venice. We also visit some beautiful small towns such as Orvieto, Assisi, Bologna. The local guides in each of cities are very knowledgeable and professional.
Booking this trip was an absolute breeze from start to finish. The talented and professional staff who assisted me through the process were knowledgeable and attentive. The day before our arrival in Turkey, we received a detailed WhatsApp message with clear instructions on how to find our ride, along with a 24/7 emergency contact number in case we encountered any issues. We truly felt well cared for in a country that was completely new to us. Our hotel was spotless and truly lived up to its "Superior" upgrade — perfectly located in the heart of Istanbul, making it easy to explore nearby restaurants and local shops. Our guide, Shasha, deserves special recognition. Her professionalism, quick thinking, and impeccable timing made our sightseeing experience seamless and enjoyable. Thanks to her, we avoided the large crowds that many other tourists faced. Overall, our experience exceeded 5 stars. I wholeheartedly recommend this platform to any prospective traveler — you will not be disappointed!
Hi Jolene,
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us feedback.
We are so happy you enjoyed your trip.
Hope to see you soon,

From the very beginning we felt safe. Our tour guide was waiting for as at the airport as promised.
Everything was happening according to the plan.
Bus drivers were excellent. Henry Morales (tour guide going to Puno) and Lily (in Puno) went out of their regular schedule to help us. Henry bought a traditional bread for us to taste, which was a nice touch on a very long drive to Puno. He even helped us to find the store we were looking for in Puno. This was after his hours. Trip to Machu Picchu was very well organized. We all knew what to do and when. Everything was happening according to schedule.
The only complaint was the accommodation in Cusco. We were on a busy street with a lot of cars honking and a smell of fumes. Too bad we were not closer to the old town.
Accommodation in the Secret Valley (Urubamba hotel)was the best experience ever. I would love to spend more time there. This place was like heaven on earth! Overall, the trip was a fantastic experience and will definitely recommend it to anybody.

A great way to go to a new country. Wonderful that the flights and hotels (clean and comfortable) were booked for me. I also appreciated the ability to connect with Exoticca staff using What's App.

Egypt was fantastic we had a great tour guide that I highly recommend. His name is Elai. Dubai the place we stayed was not as good as the other places we stayed in Egypt so I was a little disappointed. I also bought a tour in Dubai that it can be done on Saturday and for any reason we did not do that tour but a different one. So another disappointment..

The costume servers in local were response very quickly when we had issues. We had a great trip. I still the local company needed more improvements for accuracy check, ex, airport changes. I did see some people did not know they need using WhatsApp to easily communicate with local contact team and cost unnecessary communication problems. One person in the same hotel with us, he has been sent to wrong hotel, but could not contact with local team, so he paid the hotel fee. You can understand how frustrated when we are in the foreign country with language barrier. Hope your company provides more information when we book the trip.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip with Exoticca. During the 10 days Peru trip, there were no surprises, and the entire trip went as per plan. Superb organization, time management, selection of hotels and sight seeing places.

This is our first amazing trip with Exoticca, and it was wonderful in every respect. Each hotel we stayed in was immaculate, with very comfortable meds and the food was of superior quality. The landscape was breathtaking, the excursions were a diverse mix of nature, history, science and culture. Our tour guide Erla (with Snaeland Grimsson) was beyond spectacular! I would highly recommend this company their travel packages are outstanding and reasonably priced as well. We can't wait to plan our next adventure!

I was a little nervous before taking the trip as I had read mixed reviews about Exoticca. However, upon arriving, I was absolutely blown away by how organized everything was and how fantastic the guides were (for reference, I took the 9-day Peru tour). I had an absolutely wonderful time and felt supported throughout the entire trip. I will definitely be taking another trip with Exoticca in the future.

It was really an amazing experience, everything went well, I arrived very late and I was greeted at the hotel and was able to order food even though it was 12 am, the guide/driver was wonderful he was a good driver, a patient person that dealt well with the idiosyncrasies of the people in the group, we experienced many extraordinary things. I will be a repeated customer with Exoticca

It was great. However, my confirmed last two nights at Verdi Grand Hotel were down graded without my permission to Impulso Fashion Hotel with a very noisy room hard to get a sleep.

We had a fantastic flight and transfer to get our trip to Norway started. We met our tour guide and got the trip going. We were able to hit all of the major attractions that we wanted to see. The only drawback in our experience is we were often brought to a new destination very late in the evenings and told to go and find dinner and look around. A little more consideration for meal times especially when trying to navigate a new city would be much more enjoyable. We had a busy schedule of being in a new city every day so it made things difficult when this was constantly happening. The only other thing is that we weren't really aware of how long it would take to get from one destination to the next which really limited any kind of significant free time between attractions. It was a nice way to see a new country and the attractions it has to offer, but ultimately a little more consideration would have made this experience even better.

Answer: I've done 4 trips with Exoticca just booked a 5 th. All excellent and amazing value for money The tour guides are excellent and the organisation of the trips is also excellent The trips are very busy often travelling for many hours each day and although amazing value for the price - don't expect 5 star hotels unless you upgrade to superior I would highly recommend

You may pay earlier if you prefer. As our packages are already heavily discounted we are unable to offer this service. Exoticca
Answer: We travel to Portugal last year with exotica this is our fourth trip with them. We went to Greece, including the islands this past April and our best trip was the Cape Town Africa trip. There is no scam. Their tour guides are awesome in the countries
