After completing the 18 day Thailand Experience through Intro Travel, I honestly couldnt recommend it enough. The trip itself was incredible, its an amazing way to not only explore various corners of the country, but also directly support the local communities, making a seemingly small, but huge difference to their lives. If you are lucky enough to get Lauren as your group leader, youre guaranteed a trip that youll never forget! Words cant express how grateful we all were to have Loz as our big sister for 18 days, she went above and beyond to ensure our experience was like no other. She was constantly making sure that our bellies were full, fun was being had and laughter was being shared. The bonds we built and memories we shared will last a lifetime, Im so grateful for this unforgettable experience and will not hesitate when booking another tour with the company!
14 day northern Thailand adventure This has been my first time travelling and it has been so far the best 2 weeks of my life, most of the activities are amazing, for a first time traveller I would definitely recommend as your accommodation, taxis and some days your food is free so you have no hassle if it’s your first time travelling! I’m gutted we only have the first 4 tour guides for 14 days as all of them are brilliant and I don’t want to leave them! They all go the extra mile to make sure you are having the best time and that you are always looked after. Arthur you can tell he’s done it for years and is a top top man, he always goes the extra mile to ensure everyone is well looked after! Taro and peanut will both make the best guides also when it’s their time as they are the nicest people I’ve met in a very long time! Kat the intern is the cutest and is always looking out for everyone and I’m sure someday will make a great tour guide! Can honestly say they all feel like my brothers and sisters and we’ve only been with them for 2 weeks! I have told taro, peanut and kat I will come back to visit them when they are doing their own tours!
Both guides Scotty and Whiskey were great guides that made you feel safe and welcome. They were great at making accommodations for any situations that arose and brought positive energy that made the tours fun. If you had any questions or problems they answered quickly and tended to you, even if it was as simple as coming to kill a bug in your room. Having tour guides as nice and reliable as them made my solo travel experience exponentially better. As a single woman traveling alone in a country you’re not a native speaker of- having great guides is a top priority. They were well informed about all the areas we visited. Some of the accommodations could’ve been better. The Chang Mai hotel has the worst bed in the world, I never knew they made beds that hard and we spend the most amount of time in the Chang Mai hotel. I had reoccurring neck pain from the low quality bed.
