Impact

Sustainability

At INTRO our commitment to a sustainable future is a key principle, and the driving force behind our Small Change initiative, which we launched in 2017.

As part of our goal to make a real positive impact to the environment, we partnered with Eden Reforestation Projects in 2019 to plant 10 trees for every booking we received. And as a result we’ve planted tens of thousands of trees, aided reforestation, rehabilitated wildlife and reduced poverty in multiple local communities.

However we wanted to go even further and achieve true sustainability, so in late 2023 we began a new partnership with Path Net Zero to accurately measure our tours emissions, and Veritree to plant trees to offset those emissions.

We are now very proud to say that every INTRO tour is 100% carbon neutral.

Summer fun

Thailand intro tour 12 day… amazing trip organised super well! All activities were well thought out and Loz was a wonderful group leader, she was v supportive if anyone had any issues, and super calm the whole time. The group was amazing made lots of friends, and Loz made everyone comfortable from day 1 (including keeping in touch and sorting out my airport pick up when my flights were super delayed)! Would recommend to anyone thinking of travelling to a new country wanting to have no holiday planning stress and make lots of friends…! Love from Nancy

I <3 Loz

Best 12 days ever!! Just finished my Thailand tour with the amazing Loz! Everything was so well planned and such a good mix of different activities which I would have never considered doing if I wasn’t on the tour or been able to sort myself - loved trying everything. Nothing was ever too much work for Loz and she’d happily go out of her way to make this the best trip for us all, felt more like I was travelling with a (very!!) well knowledgeable friend than a tour guide. Felt so so safe and would deffo be up for doing a solo tour if my friends weren’t up for going again! Also was a big bonus that our group got on so well, have made such good friends and had the best time ever. Would 10000000% recommend and will be doing another intro tour as soon as I can.

Pros
  • Amazing location
  • Good group
  • Good food
Cons
  • Nothing

Thailand intro 12 days

I have enjoyed my time in Thailand with Intro travel. Everything was exceptionally well planned; I have even put a deposit down for another trip with Intro travel. The group got along brilliantly. Loz, our group leader, was excellent, was laid back, and was organised! ! Can’t fault anything! ! Would definitely recommend it. I wouldn't have been able to do half of these things without intro and loz, as it was clear that a lot of planning had gone into the trip! !! Again can't recommend the trip enough! !

Into 12 days!!

The best experience for traveling abroad for the first time. Couldn’t have asked for a better group leader (Lauren Barrington) to make the trip even more impactful. 100% recommend intro travel to make abroad travel more manageable and less worrisome!

Amazing experience enhanced by fab group leader

The Thai 18 day intro tour is up there with the best 18 days of my life. The organisation of the trip meant that we effortlessly travelled round all of the best bits of thailand, building amazing friendships along the way and all facilitated by the fab INTRO team and the especially amazing Group leader we were blessed to have, Loz.

INTRO sort out a wide range of activities to suit everyone’s interests throughout the trip and the travel between places and transfers were all so slick. They have also built a strong rapport with various different local guides who are extremely enthusiastic, friendly and knowledgeable. Special shout-out has to go to Lan, the guide who took us through the jungle and to see the elephants in chiang mai - an absolute legend.

Back onto Loz… Straight from the day we arrived, loz was up at the crack of dawn and ready waiting for us to get off the plane with a beaming smile and open arms. Loz organised everything for us down to the last detail and even threw in fun extra games such as ‘human cluedo’ and other extras that really bought the group together. Loz made us all feel extremely safe in this new country and had a clear natural ability as a group tour leader. If one of us was cold, wet or dressed inappropriately for the occasion, Loz would (and on a number of occasions, did) literally give the clothes off her own back to make sure we were okay and comfortable. It was like visiting and being shown round by a great friend that you never knew you had in her home country while she still remained incredibly professional and responsible on the occasions where it was needed. Loz had a recommendation (or 5) for every scenario you could have asked for, enough energy and enthusiasm for a lifetime and I genuinely do not know how she keeps such an encyclopaedic knowledge of various things that we saw and did on the tour - she could answer any of the weird and sometimes obscure questions we threw at her (and sometimes we really did try to throw her off 😂).

Just when it seems like loz’s talents had no limit, loz literally saved my big toe with her first aiding experience in a jiffy and comforted me like an older sister the whole way through when I was being dramatic about it.

The only faults I can really give Loz Is the fact that she has eggs and Nutella on her pancakes and a very questionable choice in trousers. -1 Loz for this 🥴.

Overall the trip was absolutely amazing and I would definitely recommend to anyone who is interested in doing this trip. As a female solo traveller I felt extremely safe the entire trip and thanks to all of Loz’s efforts, it was quick and easy to make friendships I am sure will last a lifetime. Massive thanks to Loz, Lan and the intro team :)

Unreal experience

Kyle was our tour leader who took care of absolutely everything. This made the whole experience so much better as there was nothing to worry about. The tour went so quick but was packed with so many activities which were made better by the amazing group.
If you are a solo traveller or do this as part of a group, you will have the best time. The tour gives your free time to go and do your own thing and meet new people as well as chill and connect with the people in the group.
Once in a lifetime experience which I will definitely be doing again with intro

Pros
  • Everything is planned
  • Like minded people
  • Great range of activities

Best trip

When I arrived in Bangkok I immediately felt so welcomed by everyone. The trip was just amazing. We had so many wonderful experiences and I would do it al over again in a heartbeat. From cooking class to parties and from elephants to the most amazing beaches. Everything was so well organised. The trip was so efficient and well thought out.

This was mostly because of the best group leader you will ever meet, Loz. She is one of the best people I ever met and took care of everything. You are feeling sick she got a tablet. Need a place to eat, here is a list with recommendations. Do you need a taxi, say no more. She went above and beyond for everyone. But her choices in pancakes are very strange. Maybe someone needs to look into that. If she will ever do a tour in another country please give me a call, because I would be there!

Time of my life! Would highly recommend ;)

Everything I got to experience on this trip was amazing - the activities, the sights, the accommodation but mainly the people and our group leader Pol! Friends for life the best trip I have ever done! Always felt so safe and looked after while having so much fun at the same time. Learning Muai Thai swimming in phi phi island and meeting elephants at a sanctuary were my highlights of the trip - each day just got better and better. It is perfect for couples, friends and also solo travellers our group was a mix and loved it ! Sad it has ended!

Pros
  • Amazing accommodation with stunning views
  • Meeting new people and making strong friendships
  • A wide mix of activities which are all amazing
Cons
  • Sun burn (Irish skin)
