The trip in a nutshell

Thailand: From Bangkok to Koh Samui — 10 days • 9 nights

From Bangkok to Koh Tao and Koh Samui: a new group trip to Thailand during which we will have the opportunity to experience this Southeast Asian country through and through, discovering its culture, traditions, and above all its beautiful islands – not by chance, in fact, this itinerary is a Beach Life! We will admire the glittering skyscrapers and experience the frenetic pace of Bangkok, visit the markets, explore its cuisine, and finally relax on the beaches of Koh Tao and Koh Samui.

We start in the capital, Bangkok, a must-see stop when deciding to plan a trip to Thailand, and we are immediately won over by its hustle and bustle as we wander through its most famous streets, from the effervescent Khao San Road to Chinatown and the thousands of stalls where we can try local (and not) street food. We will visit characteristic markets such as the floating market and the famous Train Market – which is literally crossed by train tracks – and then continue to Hua Hin, where we will visit Khao Sam Roi Yot National Park, a small gem usually snubbed but offering breathtaking scenery. We will continue our journey in the direction of Chumphon, where we will catch a ferry the next morning that will finally take us to the sea: Koh Tao will host us for two days, and then we will move on to Koh Samui, which will be the perfect conclusion to this trip! We will get to enjoy the sea, explore the natural landscapes, and experience Thai nightlife, which, at least according to what they say, is even wilder on the southern islands than in Bangkok!

Trip: Thailand

Date of experience: 26 May 2024

Had a fantastic time on the Thailand trip, diving and snorkeling off the islands and visiting the temples and markets in Bangkok. It was exactly what I was hoping for. Our travel coordinator, Yaser, did an outstanding job planning and organizing everything, and reorganizing everything whenever plans changed. Special thanks to him for helping me out with emergency shopping and phone calls when my luggage didn't arrive at the airport, and then didn't arrive at Koh Samui as promised either!

Trip to Turkey 🇹🇷. Our tour guide Laura was amazing at making sure everyone was well informed about what was happening and ensured our needs were met during the trip. We visited the main points of interest in Istanbul and Cappadocia and the hot air balloon ride was an experience I'll never forget 🤩 I recommend and plan on booking other trips with this agency.

Trip: Cairo

Date of experience: 25 May 2024

Cairo is full of welcoming people and beautiful scenery like the pyramids. Our tour leader Jen was just amazing! She went far and beyond when I got sick and made sure everyone felt included in the group. The only reason I gave it a 4 was because besides the pyramids and museums there wasn’t much to do in Cairo. I will definitely be doing a 360 trip next time! 🙂

Trip: Thailand

Date of experience: 25 May 2024

I recently took a trip to Thailand, and overall, it was a memorable experience. The trip was well-organized, allowing me to enjoy a variety of activities and visit numerous places. Our tour guide Yaser was knowledgeable, very kind, and genuinely tried his best to make the tour perfect. However, there were a few aspects I didn't enjoy as much. The itinerary was very tight, which added a lot of stress. It felt like everything was squeezed into the schedule, making the vibe of the trip a bit overwhelming. I believe the experience could have been improved with a more relaxed pace and some creative adjustments. Another issue I faced was the disparity in costs. I ended up paying significantly more than others in the group for the trip registration, which was quite disappointing. I hope the company management can reconsider their pricing structure to ensure a more equitable experience for all travelers. Despite these challenges, I still appreciated the opportunity to explore Thailand and would recommend the trip with a few improvements.

Trip: South Korea

Date of experience: 19 May 2024

This was my first trip with this agency and to South Korea and I was not disappointed! The whole trip was planned so well from start to finish. Our coordinator Kala was fantastic and so organized. She took everyone's opinions into consideration and planned things to suit the group. She was amazing and definitely made the trip even more memorable. I would definitely recommend this agency and would love to travel with them again.

Trip: Naples & Amalfi Coast

Date of experience: 18 May 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed my trip. I saw some beautiful sights, learnt about the history of Napoli and Pompeii. The company was great and I have made some lifelong friends. Yaser made the whole experience amazing as he was a brilliant coordinator, organizing everything and taking all our suggestions into account to customize the trip. He is also so fun to be around and an incredibly kind and friendly person as well as a great photographer for all those holiday shots.

Trip: Naples & Amalfi Coast

Date of experience: 18 May 2024

Recently went on an express tour of Naples and the Amalfi coast with Yaser. Wow! Fair warning, when they say express they really do mean it, but we packed in a high number of activities. Yaser was fantastic about planning activities to align with the weather, modifying plans to better align with our requests, and kept us upbeat and happy for the whole trip. Highly recommend this trip, as I had a great time and made some excellent friends all at once!

Trip: Naples & Amalfi Coast

Date of experience: 18 May 2024

Recently joined the express trip to Naples and the Amalfi Coast. It was a short, but action-packed trip and although quite tiring because of all the activities and tours etc, it was so worth it to experience all the sites that we visited! Our guide, Yaser, was excellent as our travel coordinator. We never had to think about any awkward logistics such as buying train tickets as he woke at the crack of dawn every morning to organize it for us before our own early starts! He was flexible with everything from time and plans to even sharing his toothpaste where some of us hadn't packed any. He was as much a part of the group as any of us that were on the tour with him and I would recommend a tour with him as the coordinator any day!

Trip: Naples & Amalfi Coast

Date of experience: 18 May 2024

The tour was enjoyable, the destination interesting and the group a lot of fun. The tour did consist of a lot of walking so bear this in mind but if it’s not an issue for you this tour is great. We got to see a balance of Naples and the coast, Yaser was hard working and planned well, guiding us throughout while also being flexible and allowing us the freedom to ensure we enjoyed the trip to the utmost. The most important area of the tour is probably the group, if you don’t get along with your housemates you may have trouble but thankfully this group was fantastic and the experience enjoyable.

Trip: Bali

Date of experience: 04 May 2024

I thoroughly enjoyed my first experience in Bali. I was in a group that got along really well and it made it more enjoyable. Jason was a great coordinator, kept our spirits up! The highlights for me were trekking Mount Batur and overcoming my fears in white water rafting. I’d definitely go to Bali again and do another trip!

Trip: Barcelona and Costa Brava

Date of experience: 04 May 2024

I recently traveled to Spain through the agency, visiting Barcelona and Costa Brava, and had an amazing trip! The locations themselves were fantastic places to visit but the agency made the whole experience very easy and really enjoyable. They provided an exciting itinerary that involved both sightseeing experiences and fun activities (cycling, horse riding, and rock climbing). Our wonderful coordinator Erica Marani was fantastic! She organized all the activities, helped us engage in the culture, made sure everyone’s voices were heard, and always had a positive attitude. She was a quick problem solver and created a fun environment for the travelers. Couldn’t recommend a tour with Erica highly enough! We were a group of 7 and everyone was very nice and great travel companions - we’re already planning a reunion!

Trip: Nepal

Date of experience: 27 April 2024

I recently returned from an incredible trip to Nepal. I had wanted to visit for years and chose this agency to discover it. The Travel Coordinator, Gerda, was attentive and helpful, creating a WhatsApp group 2 weeks before the trip. She provided us with a packing list, info, and tips, so I arrived prepared. The trip was fantastic, we were immersed in Nepalese culture with Gerda and 2 local guides. Trekking in the Himalayas was breathtaking, and exploring cities, temples, and learning about Buddhism and Hinduism was incredible. The group bonded well, and being of similar age helped.

I recently returned from a trip to Sri Lanka. I thoroughly enjoyed it, as the agency handled all logistics. One highlight was a splendid train ride, described as one of the world's most beautiful. Our coordinator, Sam, led the group with enthusiasm and humor, solving problems even small ones like fixing my backpack zipper. I endorse this agency and this trip.

Trip: Iceland

Date of experience: 28 January 2024

I had an amazing experience on the trip to Iceland. It didn't all go exactly to plan but it's kind of expected for a place like Iceland in January. The coordinator Nerlit was amazing at adapting our situation to get the most out of it, especially considering we had storms and last minute road closures. I would say don't treat the itinerary as gospel if you're going to somewhere like Iceland where the weather can change in an instant. I also met some amazing people from all different places which made the trip 10000x better! Graded 4 instead of 5 due to issues with our car insurance, however they were kind enough to give a good discount for our next tour so it worked out well in the end.
