Can't even begin to explain how amazing my experience with BTT was! The 3 week trip was not only great value in terms of the places you stay, and travelling, but the amount of things you fit in to the 21 days is spectacular. Some of the places we visited I would never of even heard of if it wasn't for the company, and some of the friends you make along the way you know will be friends for life! I don't even know where to begin with our tour guide, Heart! He was just amazing, a lovely person who really loves his job and it totally shows the whole trip! He always made sure everyone was having the best time and you could always rely on him no matter what, he definitely made the trip for our group� I would 100% recommend BTT to any friends who are considering going to Thailand and I would book with them again without hesitation!

Best decision I ever made to book with BTT. Had the best time exploring Thailand and made memories I will cherish for a lifetime. A massive thank you to Heart and K for showing us your beautiful country and being the best tour guides we could of asked for. Wouldn’t of been the same trip without you both.

Vietnam is a stunning country, and exploring it with Huy from Backpacking Tours was an absolute pleasure. He made sure we experienced the authenticity of each location, from historical landmarks to local eateries. His passion for Vietnam and its culture was contagious and added so much value to our journey.

The backpacking trip to Bali exceeded our expectations. This was mine and Liam’s first time travelling but the tour guides helped us settle in. All the activities were organised perfectly, the transport to and from each destination was always on time and helped massively with all of the luggage we had. We visited 3 islands on the tour with all boat trips to and from each island included and no problems. We both had an amazing time and met some fantastic people.

The tour guides are extremely helpful and friendly and they are the reason our experience was special. Supry, Ima and Putu made us feel welcome in Bali right from the very start and our only regret is that we cannot stay for longer!

I would strongly recommend anyone to travel with backpacking tours to Bali and other destinations available with the company.

Nina and Liam.

I had an amazing 10-day group tour around Australia! The itinerary was well organised, the activities were fun and suitable for everyone, and there was a great mix of sightseeing and free time. A huge shout-out to our tour leader, Tom, who made the experience even better. He was friendly, knowledgeable, organised, and always kept the group entertained. I met some fantastic people and made unforgettable memories. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone wanting to explore Australia!

The Croatia tour was SOOO much fun, such a wide variety of stops and activities so really made it very easy to cater to what specific interests people had, whether that be hiking, sightseeing or the nightlife. Becca was incredible, we couldn’t have asked for a better leader for our group and definitely left with friends for life <3
