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.

Had a blast with Yoni and Vivek on the tour of India with my partner! Very knowledgeable leaders who cater to all the group's needs with added banter in between. Would highly recommend to anyone who is interested in travelling or seeing this part of the world, as all planned experiences were worth it alone. The group leaders knew cool spots in local areas for socialising and drinks while providing background and knowledge, making it a very enjoyable and worthwhile trip for all travellers 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇮🇳

What was your funniest moment?

Definitely all conversations with the group leaders and travellers, filled with banter and laughs as we travelled across this beautiful country ❤️

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!

Final greetings

Our tour with Yoni and Vivek exceeded all of our expectations. Over the course of two weeks, they expertly facilitated a vast array of sites and experiences, handling every request with remarkable ease and attentiveness. Their dedication to ensuring the comfort and satisfaction of all guests was truly commendable, transforming our journey into a magical experience. The full service tour provided by Intro Travel was a great way to see India. I wholeheartedly recommend this tour. Thank you, Yoni and Vivek.

Our tour with Yoni and Vivek was everything we could ask for. They covered so many sites and experiences in the two weeks, while nothing was too hard or too big an ask. They went above and beyond to make sure all guests were comfortable, informed and our experience was magical. I highly, highly recommend this tour. Thank you Yoni and Vivek.

India has always been a country I have wanted to visit. When I reached out to my friend to see what she was up to in April and if she wanted to go away, she told me she has booked onto an Intro Tour and was going to India. Without hesitation I booked on. I had never done a group tour before, and being honest I never thought I would.

The trip exceeded my expectations by a long way. I felt I got to see as much as I could in the 10 whole days we had, and get a true flavour of Indian culture and traditions as well as see the country’s absolute beauty.

I couldn’t sing our group leader Yoni and group leader assistance Vivek’s praises enough. Both full of knowledge and passion for the country, sharing everything they know, where to go along the way. Nothing was too much of a bother, they were more than willing to help whatever the situation. Also just the loveliest people. I feel so grateful for having them on my trip.

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

What is your favorite travel memory?

It’s very hard to name one favourite travel memory, as no trip is ever the same, and even if you return to the country you’ve been before, you’ll always have a new favourite memory!

But if I have to name one, it’s going to be the volcano sunrise hike in Bali! Watching the sun come up on the horizon from the top of an active volcano is such a once in a lifetime experience!

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

I’ve realised that travelling with a group is the best way to travel!

Whenever I used to go travelling, I would go all by myself and try to meet new people along the way. But that isn’t always easy if you only have a week or two to spend in a country.

But if you come with a group of like minded people from day one until the end, it changes the whole experience completely!

IT’S DOUBLE THE FUN IF YOU CAN SHARE IT WITH SOMEONE!

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

“Adrian! We’re planning a reunion with the whole group next month! You need to come!”

Hearing that people who were strangers to each other before coming on a tour, are now becoming best friends and planning reunions and next trips together, is just the best thing you can possibly hear from someone.

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

I would definitely choose the 13-day Japan Adventure!

Japan is just this this country that blends in ultramodern cities, very rich history and culture with some of the most beautiful nature as well!

From the Bullet train ride, to a Samurai experience, Mount Fuji, Sushi making class and so much more!
This tour has all you need when you come to Japan!

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

#SmallChange

It’s our initiative towards responsible travel. We not only encourage people to reduce single-use plastics, participate in beach cleanups, but also support local communities and engage in cultural exchange.

It’s great to see how people start using reusable water bottles, buy locally made products, or teach local people few English words.

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

To be a successful company, you have to be passionate about what you do and make sure you keep your employees happy.

I believe that if you’ll keep these things in order, your employees are going to go that extra mile for you and your customers, no matter what problems you’ll face, you’ll always get through it.
