Program Reviews

The Bali intro with Greta and Liam in February was an absolute delight! Greta's meticulous organization made the trip seamless, turning every moment into an adventure. Her patience and helpfulness were constant, creating a positive atmosphere. Greta's local recommendations during free time were perfect. Both Greta and Liam were welcoming, making everyone feel like part of a travel family. Greta went beyond in organizing post-tour plans with me. Every second was memorable – highly recommend this incredible journey! 👏🏼🌴

The Bali intro tour is the perfect mix of cultural immersion, partying and fun activities. I had Greta as my tour leader and a shadowing leader Liam, and they supported every member of the group in whatever activities they wished to do.
Particularly they both encouraged me on the Volcano Hike which was tougher than expected but with their help I never felt a burden to the group being a bit slower. In the trip I enjoyed being able to scuba dive with the recommended centre in Gili and now have found a passion for diving which I can’t wait to do again!
Greta was such a caring guide and has a deep love and respect for Balinese culture, it was so lovely to see the relationships she has with all local guides.

There is so many included activities to keep you busy in the tour so it’s great for all backpackers or just a social holiday.
I have made some great friends off this tour and I can’t wait to do another!

Our group leader was jess who was down to earth and charismatic,Always there to answer questions. We all think jess would be the perfect person as a group leader in Sri Lanka
The intro trips our are great way to start you on your travels great way to make friends for a lifetime and stress free.
New Zealand is a beautiful country with many places to visit we had a lot of opportunities to explore different activities that were on the intro but Also free time where you could choose what you would like to do

My Intro travel NZ tour was awesome. Jess was a great team leader! She knew the country, everything organised was seemless and she’s great fun!
The variety of activities was good and the optional extras really packed out the holiday, especially in the North Island!
The south island was a lot of travelling but the views made up for that!
Its definitely a great starter way to see New Zealand and it’s definitely making me want to come back and explore more!
If booking NZ trip and you get Jess as a group leader you’re in for a great trip!

This tour of both North and South islands of New Zealand is very well put together. The Intro leader, Jess Sargent, was very knowledgeable and organised throughout the whole trip. The tour leader can also help you get started up with finding work in New Zealand too, helping with tax numbers and how to look for jobs. The tour hit up the highlights of both islands while allowing for free time to pay for extra activities such as skydiving, bungee jumping etc. All the hostels were clean and well maintained. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone coming to New Zealand for the first time.

Great staff, great social and great vibes. What else do you want. Great Educational programmes. If you’re a solo traveller or a couple/group there is so much to offer. Plenty of different educational programmes on offer. Staff are very accommodating and listen to exactly what you want out of the courses. I’ve recommended this to several friends of mine and they are in the process of signing up. Why not learn a new skill while you have some free time!? Do it while you can, you won’t regret it. Some of the best memories I’ve made to date

Sean was great and very helpful with future travel plans as well. He got the group talking to eachother which mead everyone feel comfortable with eachother very quickly. It also felt like he was part of the tour as well rather than just supervising us.

The overall tour was good with great activities included, I think it's pretty good value to be honest! I would just prefer to spend less time in Auckland as it wasn't my favourite place. Perhaps we could go to Wellington rather than back to Auckland again. Especially as everyone will land there and may spend a day there before the Tour begins anyway.

New Zealand intro tour was a really good trip, really well planned with a fantastic tour leader in Sean whose knowledge of the country and enthusiasm was a highlight of the trip and he will go out of his way to ensure you get the most out of the experience , It’s a good way of meeting new friends if you are a nervous solo traveller or a first time traveller. The trip is well played but I feel like you could visit a few more places on the North Island apart from that all the included excursions were really good.

Could not recommend intro more! I did the New Zealand tour and it was the most incredible experience, the tour was filled with so many amazing activities to experience and learn about the culture of New Zealand but also enough down time to do your own thing on some days.

Our group leader was Sean who made the trip run smoothly, was very knowledgeable and able to give us recommendations everywhere we went and made sure everyone had the best time. He made sure to keep us in the loop with what was happening each and every day with a detailed message sent out the night before, was able to answer any questions and went above and beyond to support before, during and after the tour for onwards travel. Booking any additional activities at the beginning of the tour was so easy and straight forward, as a first time solo traveller the company and Sean made me feel at ease and made it the best experience.

Intro travel is the best company I’ve travelled with, such an incredible way to meet new people and see new countries!

Had an amazing time in New Zealand with the tour, so much fun and met amazing people and made lots of friends. Sean was so much fun and the best tour guide I ever had. He was very knowledgeable about New Zealand and about Lord of the rings. Sean also brought great vibes to the trip making it so entertaining. Sean was also able to help with ongoing travel and put so much time and effort into planning peoples travels once they finished the tour. The hostels we stayed at were clean and nice and had great facilities. When going out and food was provided it was amazing quality.
