What a trip! The itinerary is incredible. I saw everything I wanted to see in South Africa and more! Amazing views, great food, incredible cultures, traditional performances, beautiful animals. I can't wait to go back to South Africa!

Trip highlights would include the safari drives, incredible views in Graskop / the panoramic route, zulu tribe visit, local school interactions, the accommodations in Kruger and Eswatini, cape town in general: table mountain, mojo market, the waterfront. Had an amazing group of people too!

Congrats to our companion and guide Courtney for leading us throughout the most exciting experiences during our 12 days of vacation, such memories we had and connections we’ve made within the group.
20 lads starting a journey on 18th of September, ending it on 29th as a big group of friends it’s something that will remain with you forever.
All the activities, parties and chats were amazing and all I can think of is the next adventure: Philippines

Splendid experience

I did this trip in September 2024 with two friends and our group leader was Courtney. Honestly , we couldn’t ask for a better person to enrich our tour. From staying up every night out, making a surprise birthday cake , filming us doing surf, dedicating a song for our group to dancing on top of Mt Batur she made it both fun and memorable every step of the journey. Besides making sure everyone is given proper support and their voices were heard, she also was patient and communicated in a profesional way.

What is your advice to future travelers on this program?
If you’re always up for socializing, having fun and pushing your comfort zone then this trip is right for you!
Pros
  • Energetic Group Leader
  • Great selection of activities
  • Good housing
Cons
  • Breakfast at some accommodation
  • Dead time at volcano trip
  • First night could use more activities

Bali Experience 12 days

I enjoyed the itinerary for Bali experience 12 days. You get to see different areas of Bali, from rice fields, monkey forest and the beaches and islands. The tour guides throughout the trip were awesome! I would like to thank my group leaders Andri and Carolyn (who was in training at that time). They looked after us throughout the trip and checked in on us regularly. Thank you for making my first group trip an amazing and fun one! I highly recommend booking your next trip with intro travel!!! :)

15 day intro Bali experience

I took the 15 day Bali Experience tour and it was one of the most amazing trips I have ever been on.
It included so many once in a life time experiences including swimming with manta rays which was a dream come true. I was lucky to make brilliant friends with the rest of my group who I now share unforgettable memories with.

Our tour guides Andri and Carolyn made the trip run so smoothly so that we never had to worry about anything. I felt so safe having them as group leaders, they made sure we were able to experience the best of Bali whilst remaining stress free. They also made sure to take phenomenal photos for us throughout the trip to capture our memories. I cannot thank them enough for the trip of a lifetime. 100% recommend travelling with Intro, I cannot fault them.

Bali 15 Days

Will be highly recommending Intro to my friends! Everything ran so smoothly and well organised it was so lovely not to have to think about any planning for activities or transfers. The Bali experience 15 day itinerary was full of experiences I would have never thought to do unless I was part of the group. There was a wide range of cultural as well as adventurous activities and a little bit of free time for ourselves. I would suggest doing the 15 days not just the 12 as ending the trip in Nusa allowed for more chilled time and we were incredibly lucky to see Manta Rays on the snorkelling activity included. Our group leader was Andri, he made us feel so relaxed and was so helpful that he speaks Balinese. Andri is so knowledgable and the perfect guide making our trip so fun and exciting. Andri was training Carolyn which was lovely to have two group leaders, I’m sure Carolyn will go on to be an amazing tour guide too!

Vietnam 12 day Intro trip

I did the 12 day Vietnam Intro trip with Meg as my team leader and it was amazing. One of the best experiences I’ve ever done, Meg has got a real passion for Vietnam and is so knowledgeable, especially about the war, anyone would be lucky to have her as their team leader. The intinery for the trip is great, Ha long bay and Hoi an are a firm favourite, along with making our own laterns. The only thing I wish we had more of is a little more free time to explore the cities but apart from that it’s a fantastic trip, I would highly recommend it

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
A duck egg embryo
Pros
  • The culture and vibrancy of Vietnam
  • The activities - boat trip, latern making, scenic boat trip in ninh binh
  • The people in my group
Cons
  • Not enough time in some of the cities
  • The food wasn’t amazing
  • The bike ride

Vietnam intro 12 days

Our tour in Vietnam was brilliant, the food at the home stays and boat could have been improved. The general meals were a little disappointing. Our leader was so helpful and funny. She would chat to us and give us guidance and advice. Including safety and recommendations at restaurants and things to do in the local area. This was beneficial as we had limited free time. It was well organised and ran smoothly. We needed more beaches as there was only one. Our group was small which was really nice cause we all got to know each other really well

What would you improve about this program?
I would include more beaches and optional extras eg teaching the kids English was perfect and a great thing to do. I really enjoyed it
Pros
  • Easy way to travel
  • Safe way to travel
  • You get to see the best of the country
Cons
  • Have to socialise all the time
  • Not much free time
  • Accommodation isn’t always amazing

Japan 2024 with Intro

had the pleasure of having Meg as our tour guide during our trip to Japan, and she truly made the experience unforgettable. Meg’s knowledge of Japan’s history, culture, and hidden gems was remarkable. She brought each location to life with engaging stories and insights that you wouldn’t find in any guidebook. Her enthusiasm was infectious, and she went out of her way to ensure everyone in the group was comfortable and had a great time. Whether it was helping us navigate the bustling streets of Tokyo or guiding us through the serene temples of Kyoto, Meg was always attentive and patient. If you’re looking for a tour guide in Japan who is knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate, I highly recommend Meg!
