I finished the 17 day NZL tour about a week ago and oh my god it was one of the greatest things I’ve ever done! Stunning locations and loads of activities to do, there was never a dull moment. Our tour leader Faye was AMAZING, so kind, and I couldn’t have asked for anyone better. I would 100% recommend doing this tour, the friends and memories will stay for life!

Just finished our trip with Becca in Croatia and it was incredible! She brought so much energy and was fantastic from start to finish, our group had so many delays and she handled them all so well and made sure we were all okay and arrived every where safely and with a smile! Cannot fault her she was brilliant!

I recommend this magical experience. I made new friends from all over the world. I felt very satisfied with the work done, I experienced a different month that made me reflect on many things about the life. The friendships were fantastic You have to be able to adapt to a different lifestyle, but there are many people ready to support you. There will be moments of fatigue and stress, but this experience will change your life. If you are ready, I highly recommend this experience.I felt very satisfied with the work done, I experienced a different month that made me reflect on many things. The friendships were fantastic.

Just finished the 10 day Peru adventure trip, and what an amazing experience it was! This was my first tour, it was so well organised from start to finish, and having Roger as our guide he was so professional and friendly couldn’t ask for anyone better to show us the wonders of Peru.

Backpackers in traditional sarongs walk a scenic cliffside path overlooking the ocean at Uluwatu, Bali.Indonesia

Putri is the best tour guide, that I've ever had. She likes to chat with us, help us out, speaks with the locals, has an open heart and welcome us, like you can see this in Balinese culture. I learned so much about the people and the culture here, although I spend some time on Bali before the trip. Putri is highly recommended.

Three friends walk barefoot through a vibrant palm grove in sunny Costa Rica.Costa Rica
Partner

Just returned from the most amazing two weeks in Costa Rica! The perfect balance of adventure, wildlife (so many sloths!!) and chill beach time, with an instant group of new friends for solo travellers like me. Our tour leader Mari was brilliant at creating a fun but safe environment, and we all had an amazing trip thanks to her.
For anyone travelling solo, don't be afraid to book the trip!
