The Exotic Tour was Depeche Mode's tour back in 1994 and was part of the Devotional Tour. The US Summer Tour followed afterwards. The tour included gigs on all continents for the first time ever. The tour also featured the same songs from the Devotional Tour.

The tour started in February 1994 and ended in July 1994. Combined with the other three parts of the Devotional Tour it is the biggest Depeche Mode tour to date with 159 dates.
