Cambodia 9 day trip

Absolutely beautiful country! The people, culture, scenery, architecture and food are all outstanding (if you know where to look) - with such a deeply upsetting history you could forgive Cambodian people for having a pessimistic outlook on life but generally they are so friendly, welcoming and positive!

Glad I was able to experience some bucket list activities with the help of Intro and make some lasting connections with fellow travellers! I didn’t have long but the tour is compact and feels more like a holiday as I was able to relax and not worry about planning.

Massive thanks to our group leader Theresa who I know worked hard to make our tour feel effortless and took us to some really cool spots along the way - I would recommend Intro for anyone wanting to do solo travelling, especially if time constraints are an issue and you want to fit lots in.

What was the most unfamiliar thing you ate?
Grasshoppers, beetles and durian fruit, which I was expecting to be awful from what I’d been told but it tasted pretty good!
Pros
  • Great cafes and restaurants visited
  • Snorkelling on Koh Rong Sanloem was amazing
  • Very good mix of historical activities as well as rest and relaxation
Cons
  • Lots of travel in minivans, buses and trains in very hot weather
  • Would have liked to spend more time in Siem Reap
  • It didn’t last longer!

Beautiful Vietnam

I have just finished this tour with Steph as the leader. Steph was brilliant and made everything stress free, she is accommodating, flexible and genuinely lovely with a permanent smile. Steph went over and above as a tour leader and would provide fantastic recommendations for food, cafes, places to visit and what to plan in to free time.

The local guides were great; they were fun, knowledgeable and happy to answer any questions. The tour activities were excellent and well selected and I can confidently say I enjoyed every one of them. It was a perfect combination of adventure (hiking, biking, kayaking) and relaxation (a beach day and pool afternoons). The restaurants we went to for the planned dinner nights had delicious food and easily accommodated dietary requirements.

The accommodation was second to none. Clean rooms, comfy beds, well equipped rooms with air con and most places had a pool to cool off in. The only minus point I would say was that the rooms on the cruising boat at Ha Long Bay weren’t up to scratch. However, I would argue that the incredible quality of the food on the boat did make up for this factor. The transport between locations was comfortable and some of the vans even had massage chairs.

This tour was absolutely fantastic and I would recommend it to anyone. You will see the beauty of Vietnam and fall in love with it as I have.

Best ever trip in Vietnam

I had a great 12 day experience in Vietnam with Intro! My only regret is not doing the full 15 day. Steph our leader made everything so hassle free and amazing and took care of my dietary requirements which was such a relief for me, I didn’t have to worry about anything at all. Each place was awesome in its own way and I’ve made so many memories and new friends. There was no pressure to take part in the activities but they were all really great. The food everywhere exceeded my expectations!!
The overnight train was a bit iffy for me, but still an experience non the less! Ready to book my next tour!

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
I would do the 15 days instead of the 12 days! I didn’t enjoy having to say goodbye!!
Pros
  • Good for solo travellers
  • Amazing food
  • Activities for everyone’s different interests
Cons
  • No laundry really in the first 8 days! Didn’t really prepare for that.

Philippines tour 8th of March

This was an amazing tour, and I am so happy I booked it! The sights and activities was great, the people even better, and I always felt safe (much of this because of our tour leader Andri Agassi). No problem was ever to small, and he was always there for everyone. I will forever cherish the memories from this trip. I am recommending this tour to anyone who wants to travel! Although if you are vegetarian, be sure to by some extra snacks for the boat expedition, although there are veggie options, I was so happy to have a little extra!

What was your funniest moment?
It was canyoneering!
Pros
  • Amazing sights and activities
  • Team building
  • Feeling of safety
Cons
  • Could be better veggie options for the vegetarians

NZ Adventure 17 day tour

Have just finished the 17 day New Zealand North and South tour with Jess Sargent and what an experience. Jess has been the most amazing group leader from day one always making sure that each member of the tour got to experience New Zealand to the fullest! Jess always found a way for us to do any extra activities that we wanted to do so we wouldn't be disappointed. I could not imagine having done this tour with anybody else. Jess is an absolute gem of a person and I am so excited to see what is next for her. Jess really did make this a trip of a lifetime and I am so thankful to have met her. She truly went above and beyond for each and every single person. Thank you with all my heart ❤️

Philippines 2024 with IntroTravel

It was an amazing trip experience! We had such a great tour leader, Andri and it was a pleasure to have Kell as a trainee. We did a lot during the tour, and from canyoning to massages, it was all worth it! It was also nice that we got to sample the culture, but also did sporting things and did fun/ interesting activities as a group.

I would like to thank Intro Travel for this experience and Andri & Kell. It was my first solo trip and I definitely recommend Intro Travel.
Everything is arranged for you even if something goes wrong in the moment Intro Travel is very well arranged all and feedback is always welcome for them.

My only downside was that there was too little free time. It wasn't quite supposed to be that way as we had a delay a couple of times....But for next time, I would personally appreciate that more.

All in all, the trip was great and would definitely do it again, though in a different country!

What was your funniest moment?
The moments that we played the game werewolf!

So many great laughs:)
Pros
  • Lot’s of amazing people
  • Over all flexible
  • Great leaders
Cons
  • To little free time
  • Bit to small boat for the expedition…

Paradise and Friends For Life!

I have just finished my Philippines Intro Tour with Andri and can honestly say it was an experience of a lifetime.

Not only did we have two weeks in blissful paradise meeting 14 new worldwide best friends, dining on incredible food and having the best hospitality known to man by locals but also Andri as a leader was beyond incredible; the perfect balance between fun and cool, calm and collected.

He was able to make the process so smooth and accommodating, not a single one of us ever had anything to worry about. I want to put a special mention in for his attitude and kindness. As a group we bonded extremely well, so much love and respect between everyone, and Andri was a core part of that; be it lending out his incredible fins, entertaining us with his singing, making sure safety was priority on nights out, being the loveliest with locals allowing us to get to know them on a deeper level or getting a personal best in free diving (17.5m what?!🤯) and us thinking I would need to take over because he was never returning from the darkness. This man smashed it.

I have had the pleasure of doing three previous tours: Bali, Thailand and Vietnam and each tour has built its own reputation to assume the next will never be as good. This one.. was as good if not better in its own right. From canyoneering to white sand beach snorkelling, sunsets with Andri on guitar to scuba’ing shipwrecks, waterfall photo shoots to swimming with turtles 🐢 every moment was magical.

Would 1000% recommend to anybody thinking of going.
It was that good, I’ve contemplated not only returning but becoming a leader myself.

What was the most nerve-racking moment and how did you overcome it?
Jumping off the highest cliffs I have yet whilst canyoneering in Cebu! Amazing experience
Pros
  • Incredible hospitality from both locals and our guide
  • Fresh, increddddible food
  • The scuba and snorkeling abilities for coral and shipwrecks

Fantastic Tour

What an amazing thirteen day tour, a brilliant itinerary packed with adventures and beautiful places. It has the perfect balance of downtime too.
We had a fantastic leader in Andri, he ensured everything ran as smoothly as possible for us every day and made the trip even better.
I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore the Philippines, especially to those who love the sea, snorkelling/diving and boat trips.
Intro are a fantastic company to deal with as well, helpful with any questions
