Worth the Wait

I had always wanted to do some travelling but had never found the right time, however after looking into exploring Thailand i came across this Trutravels tour. From beginning to end this tour was everything you would expect and wish for on your travels. Three equally as crazy and fun tour guides,Delaney,Arthur and Gogi made the adventure everything it should be... fun fun fun!! Three absolutely wonderful people i am so grateful to have met! The tour is just the right amount of crazy,activites and chill days which made it perfect!! The guides also gave some great advice and information for our stay in Thailand which helped alot , along with making contact on social media prior to our travels which was great!! The laughs that we all shared on this tour will remain with me forever and i look forward to seeing everyone again in the future. much love and THANK YOU xx

23 day Thailand full moon island hopper Tour

I have recently finished a 23 day Thailand full moon island hopper tour with trutravels and just had the most incredible time! Our tour guides Arthur/Max/Alicia were absolutely amazing, they felt as though they were just another member of our group but had everything planned and sorted ahead of time for us making the trip so easy and enjoyable. The activities included in this tour were incredible and if there was anything ever that wasn't included that you wanted to do the tour guides were amazing at giving you all the information needed and sorting it all out for you. I would highly recommend trutravels tours to anyone looking to explore S.E Asia, it was one of the best decisions I made, I met so many lovely people and seen so many beautiful places and now have so many amazing memories that will be with me always.

Loved every minute

Met some amazing people who were all so lovely. No one was better than the two tour guides max and sunny who were so caring and so lovely the whole time. Constantly making us all laugh. I was fortunate enough to be in a small group of only ten which was perfect for me. Got to do some things I would never have thought of doing had I not signed up for the tour. Loved all the activities that we did. Was comforting to have the safe place at the full moon party. Enjoyed the atmosphere at echo beach and the games available. I would 100% recommend this 13 day tour with trutravels to everyone and would book another tour with trutravels. A massive thank you to Max and Sunny! I would want to have them again as my tour leaders.

What would you improve about this program?
I would have liked to spend more time at bottle beach as we did not even have a full day there and it was amazing. Would have also preferred to be at echo beach for shorter as the rooms were cramped and the beach was not very nice. Maybe more time at lime and soda too?

Incredible tour!

So happy we booked this tour. We got to make some incredible friends, including both our tour guides, while doing some amazing activities. Everything we did was made more fun by our tour guides who genuinely went above and beyond to accommodate every additional activity/party we wanted to do. We didn't spend a single day bored and were able to chill when we wanted. This is such a flexible tour that you are able to tailor to you and make it as busy or chill as you want. Everything we did we were given additional history and made to feel completely safe. Truly the best holiday I've ever had and will be booking another TruTravels tour next year and convince more friends to come with me. I just hope I get a tour guide as good as Max because he is the soul reason this tour will be so memorable for everyone on it.

Spend more nights at Bottle Beach or Lime n Soda as Echo Beach accommodation isn't great.

Full Moon Experience

I booked the 13 day full moon experience and was a little apprehensive before travelling as I hadn't been backpacking before, however I really did not need to worry. From the moment that the tour started we were all in such an inclusive environment that you began having fun from the get go. Our tour guides, Delaney, Arthur and Gogi were exceptional and made sure that we were having great fun and felt safe throughout the tour. They also shared knowledge about the culture and environment we were in throughout each stop. We all had the opportunity to take part in extra activities that weren't included on the tour which meant we really could make the most of our time in Thailand.
We loved our tour so much that we booked our next Bali tour for next year with our new friends.
I went to Thailand for a holiday but feel like I found a home!

What would you improve about this program?
Upfront information on the cost of taxis etc before taking part in activities so that we have the option to decline. It would have been great to have a nice farewell dinner, it didnt seem that too much effort was put into the dinner and it could have been really special as it was our last night.

10day full moon

Well...where do i start.... i can honestly say this has been the best experience of my life and the tour guides definitely played a big part in that. We was lucky enough to bag ourselves outstanding tour guides ....Delaney, Arthur and Gogi, who made sure we all got the best out of our holiday/adventure.
We had a group chat which really made meeting everyone a lot easier before hand.
All the organisation of allocating rooms were also thought out to please everyone.
Everything on this trip was about pleasing and making sure we were all having the best experience possible.
I will forever hold the memories created on this holiday and i cant thank my tour reps enough.

..travelled with one friend and we’ve left with one crazy family!!! Couldnt rate this holiday package or tour guides anymore PERFECT!!

11n Cambodian Explorer

I did this trip with my best friday in August. The best part of this trip visiting the islands Koh Rong beautiful remote heaven with huge party nights. Although every day of this trip felt like a party with out guid Seyha Chuon. He is hilarious, entertaining, reasuring and inspiring, cheeky. He taught us a lot more than just cambodian history and life. He was a thrill to be around 24/7. He is a giggle to fo to bars with and his dancing out outragiously good, but his singing needs improving but that doesn’t stop him! The only time I stopped laughing and had to think for myself was when he left to visit a doctor, we genuinly missed him!!!
This trip is great value, really varied activities/days and organised perfectly, definatly worth it especially if you are lucky enough to have Seyha as your guid. My friend and I still talk about him often and keep in touch.

Best Trip Ever

Our first stop was Sieam Reap. On our first night we met in the evening and went out for dinner. After that we did a bar tour and drunk a lot. So we had a lot of fun together. After our first night we had a Cambodian cooking course. The only problem was we had big fucking hangover, so we couldn't really enjoy it. Each of us in the group was over 25. I think that was the problem. Our second destination was Pnohm Penh I think. On our first night we had a pub crawl and went to the club. We stayed at the Mad Monkey Hostel. It was pretty nice there. Mostly we were two people in one dorm. After Pnohm Penh we visited Kampot. We went to the Waterpark Arcadia and a great time. It rained on this day but it couldn't stop us to have some fun. On the next day we went to a boat trip and were swimming in the river. It was a really great time there in Cambodia.

To the best tour guide!

I have just got home after an amazing 12 day tour of Cambodia. The trip would not have been the same without our amazing tour guide Seyha who included everyone in the group and did not fail to make everyone laugh throughout the duration of the holiday. Every day was filled with a different activity and the nights were so fun! The tour is great value for money and I could not fault it! It was such a good was of seeing the whole country and making you do things that you may not have know about without the help of a tour guide! I would 100% recommend doing the Cambodia Explorer and you will be extra lucky if you have Sayha or his brother who we had the pleasure of meeting as well!
Thank you for such an amazing holiday and I hope to come back to Cambodia one day!

Amazing tour with fabulous guides

This tour is an amazing way to experience the best of the East Philippines. I had so much fun and all the included activities were awesome. My tour guide, Amer, is truly the best tour guide Iv ever had! He is so fun and enthusiastic whilst being organised and professional. Amer is not only a great tour guide but also a great friend. Amer is an incredibly caring and generous person.
The tour is excellent value for money. The included activities have something for everyone - if you’re a thrill seeker like me, the canoyering day is adrenaline pumping! The island boat trips discover beautiful dreamy islands with crystal blue waters and white sands. The sardine run was spectacular, I never thought we would be able to get so close.
I had my birthday whilst on this trip and honestly couldn’t of asked for a better way to spend it. It’s too hard to pick a highlight for this trip as ALL of it was so AMAZING. I’d highly recommend this trip to any backpackers travelling SE Asia - not to be missed!
