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.

I was super lucky I had Violetta (v) as our group leader. V was an amazing start to finish -the bubbliest and most fun and caring leader -she felt more like a friend than a leader. Every day was planned and packed full of fun and culture, which V was super knowledgeable about and always ensured everyone felt safe and welcome at all times.

Even when a member in our group had some difficulties, V was always super calm and knew exactly how to deal with every scenario with ease. I couldn’t recommend V as a tour leader enough, we loved you, V!!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?

book with V as your tour leader she will. are sure you have the most amazing time !

Pros

amazing way to meet new friends
full of culture and activities
takes away the stress of solo travel

V (Violetta) is an absolute angel, and she made the trip so much better than it already was. V is so down-to-earth and such a beautiful and bubbly person to be around!

She made sure everyone felt safe and welcomed, and always strived to be inclusive and warm to everyone who was on the tour. Everyone on the tour loved her, and I would highly recommend V as a tour group leader.

What was your funniest moment?

V dancing with us in the clubs in Canggu

Pros

Good dancer
Amazing leader
Always welcoming

Cons

none

I had a fantastic time on my 9-day trip to Bali.

The booking process was easy and I received all info needed, with my group leader, Violetta, checking in on my arrival details to make sure I had a smooth start and a WhatsApp Group to get in touch with the other participants.

The accommodations are very comfortable, and the activities are well vetted, making sure to have a safe and ethical experience. I am a vegetarian and the food alternatives provided were high quality.

Violetta was the best guide I could have asked for. It was really nice to be with a local who knows the language and can translate when needed, and her energy was just amazing.

There was a noticeable age gap in the group, which meant some participants wanted to party as much as possible and others wanted to have a chilled vacation. Violetta managed that easily by giving individual recommendations for free-time activities and making sure people who go home earlier get back to the accommodation safely.

On the last day, the waves were too high to go back by the regular ferry from Gili T, which she handled like a pro, getting us on an alternative transport, making sure we had seats and snacks, and organising the onward journey for everybody.

Overall, I spent the entire time just enjoying myself because everything was being taken care of. Totally recommend!

What was the most surprising thing you saw or did?

From the itinerary I knew there was a snorkelling trip planned, but I was not prepared for how stunning it would be. We saw so many turtles, it was truely amazing.

Pros

Great food
Fun acitivities
Comfortable accommodation

Cons

INTRO has no influence on the age composition of the group, so you have to get lucky with your fellow travellers

Just wrapped up the Epic Indonesia 15-day tour, and it truly lived up to its name!

From the stunning landscapes of Bali to the serene beauty of Lombok, every day was an adventure. As a solo traveller, I was a little nervous at first — but I never felt alone for a second.

A huge shoutout to our incredible group leader, Courtney. She went above and beyond to make sure everyone was having the best experience possible. Her kindness, infectious energy, and genuine care made the trip unforgettable. She's an amazing asset to Intro Travel, and we were all so lucky to have her leading our group.

I’ll always be grateful for the memories made and the friendships formed — and I hope I get to cross paths with Courtney again on future adventures!

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?

Monkey Forest - never knew I am petrified of monkeys but so delighted that I did it

Pros

Group was fantastic
Group Leader was brilliant

Cons

None

Just finished the 19 day Epic Indo trip with intro. Wow! I had the best time and already planning on traveling with intro again. I have made friends to last a lifetime. Our group leader Courtney was amazing. Could not have asked for anyone better. She was so knowledgeable about each place, knew all of the best places to take us and gave the best recommendations. She made sure we were all safe and having the best time. I knew if I ever needed anything she was always there to help and talk. She was always so organised which made my trip so smooth and effortless. My memories of this trip will last a lifetime, surfing, dolphin spotting, diving in Gili, waterfalls, snorkelling with turtles and especially the Komodo boat trip! I had my birthday whilst on the trip and Courtney went the extra mile to ensure I had the best day. I fell in love with Indonesia, and a big part of that was because of Courtney and the group. Never laughed and cried (happy tears) so much. Thank you for everything Courtney, I have made a friend for life🫰🏼🫰🏼

I had the best time on the Bali Intro 12-day tour. My tour leader, V, made the trip hassle-free. She always made sure everyone was safe and looked after throughout the trip. She also made sure we always had fun. Couldn’t have asked for a better tour leader. This trip has encouraged me to travel more in the future and to travel with Intro Travel.

This tour involved many activities, some early mornings, which were difficult. But these were all worth it for the activities that we completed. My favourite memory from the trip was watching the sunset on the beach in Gili T after the bike ride.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?

I wasn’t sure whether to scuba dive or not. However v had done this before and reassured me so I was able to feel confident enough to have this experience of a lifetime.

Vi was a brilliant tour leader, supportive, and was always engaged in all the activities we did. Vi had good knowledge of the surrounding areas and recommendations for places to go in our free time. The activities included in the tour were fun, especially snorkelling in Gili T. The Monkey Forest in Ubud was fun to see all the monkeys, and near the hotel too. Vi was always up for a laugh and to go out too and party with us! Would recommend to solo travellers or to individuals aged below 25. Great tour!

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?

To enjoy every moment.

Pros

Meeting knew people
Seeing the culture and Bali life

Took me a couple of days to digest and realise I was back to ordinary life, but this allowed me ti value more the Epic Indonesia 15 experience. Let's be honest, raise your hand if you weren't worried about:
- How will the group be?
- Will I fit in and get along with them?
- Who will be my roommate?
- Will I enjoy it?

I did worry a little bit, not going to lie, but still decided to dive into this experience, with no expectation and living day by day.

The result was amazing! Great group of people, was able to chat, laugh, and share moments with each of them. I was at ease and comfortable. All this was topped up by Courtney, our group leader! Courtney was firm, fair, and good fun! As well as being very approachable. Essential trait for a leader.

Being on a holiday and having everything planned to a T, what to do, when, where, what to bring, and much more were vital for a useless planner like myself. Thank you, Courtney.

Bali, Lombok, were destinations on my bucket list, which I can now tick off my list. Being able to do activities I secretly fear (surfing-ish, snorkeling, karaoke etc..) was a big win for me. Managed to be part of the Volcano hike (despite not being a hike fan), which was WORTHY!!

Great experience, memories, and friends made!
Not much to say!

Dear reader, what are you waiting for...
Just do it!

Pros

Cultural experiences
"All planned for you"
Group bonding

Cons

Final greetings

Questions & Answers

Alumni Interviews

These are in-depth Q&A sessions with verified alumni.

Why did you choose this program?

Ever since visiting Thailand in 2020 (right before the lockdown), I became fascinated with what Southeast Asia has to offer. The traditions, amazing views, and the warmth of the people are things I always remember fondly, so it was just a matter of time until I returned. The opportunity came quickly: two friends and I were coming back from a ski trip one late evening when the topic of this year’s vacation came up, and in just one minute, we collectively decided on Bali.

What did your program provider (or university) assist you with, and what did you have to organize on your own?

The tour included accommodations: a hotel in Canggu, a private villa in Lovina, twin rooms in Gili Trawangan and Ubud, transport mainly by van between locations and boat rides, and some meals, primarily breakfast. I only needed to purchase the flight and set aside some pocket money for snacks, drinks, and extra activities.

What is one piece of advice you'd give to someone going on your program?

Don’t hold back! Take it all in and go all out. Strike up conversations with your fellow travelers, enjoy karaoke in the van while on the road, and share your funniest stories. Savor the local food, dance when your favorite song comes on, or better yet, sing it! Explore during your free time: for example, I ran from the hotel in Canggu to Tanah Lot Temple, which we visited the next day, and did two laps around the island while in Gili Trawangan.

What does an average day/week look like as a participant of this program?

A typical day starts with breakfast, which may or may not include hangover from last night’s party. The group leader arrives, does a quick headcount, and announces our scheduled activity for the day. During this time, the group is mostly quiet, with only small talk present. After the first activity, the group’s energy rises during lunch, where jokes can be heard all around. The second activity brings joy to everyone, as each person gives their best to have fun or excel. By dinner, spirits are high— and not just the ones in the glasses—and reflections on the day’s funniest moments are shared aloud for all to enjoy.

Going into your experience abroad, what was your biggest fear, and how did you overcome it? How did your views on the issue change?

For me personally, I have a fear of deep water and I'm not a strong swimmer, so surfing and snorkeling felt like challenges I had to overcome. Surprisingly, surfing went much better than I expected; I enjoyed it so much that I didn't want to take a break. Snorkeling was another pleasant surprise. Last year, I couldn’t stay in the water for long, but this time I completed the whole activity thanks to my friends, who made sure I was okay—checking that my mask was properly fitted and keeping an eye on me. I’m truly grateful for their support.

Staff Interviews

These are in-depth Q&A sessions with program leaders.

What is your favorite travel memory?

This is a hard question as there are so many different ones. I have to go with the trip I had last year to Cambodia.

I was only going as a bit of an add onto had no expectations of it. By the end of my trip, I fell in love with the place. The culture, the history, and the beaches...it was just an amazing place and I can not wait to return again in the future.

How have you changed/grown since working for your current company?

I have only been working for the company a short time but in that time I have learnt a great deal.

I have learnt so much about Australia and many other countries which I didn't know before so my knowledge has increased massively. I have become a lot more confident in public speaking and talking about travel opportunities with people.

View Entire Interview

What is the best story you've heard from a return student?

I have not yet had a story told to me yet as they are all still out and traveling. However, I know from before they left after the group that they were super excited to be traveling with the new people they had just met, as well as making new friends along the way. People always go off and have amazing experiences and I can't wait to hear all the wonderful things everyone has been up to.

If you could go on any program that your company offers, which one would you choose and why?

I would choose Japan. I have been on many of the INTRO tours and when Japan came out, I wasn't too fussed on it. I have no idea why, because since learning about the country and the things it has to offer, I am itching to go. There is so much culture which would be amazing to see, and who doesn't want to learn to use a samurai sword?

What makes your company unique? When were you especially proud of your team?

The company is just so unique in itself. I mean, what company has weekly ping pong competitions? It's a super chill place to work, which is what I like about it too.

I am always proud of the group of people I work with. Everyone works really hard and it really does show. Every day everyone is learning and that makes everyone proud - when people are learning and picking up new skills and just generally bettering themselves.

What do you believe to be the biggest factor in being a successful company?

Honestly, the biggest factor is being happy and enjoying work. If everyone is passionate about the company, then that is the key for it to be successful. If you weren't happy within the company, it will bring others down and that isn't going to help in any way.

Passion is the biggest factor; if you're passionate, you will naturally work harder, which leads to more success.
