Just returned from the 15 day tour of Cambodia. I had such an excellent time with such an amazing group of people. As a solo traveller I was apprehensive not knowing anyone but from the get go we were all introduced and I got to know everyone. The guides work tirelessly throughout the entire duration of the trip ensuring that everyone is happy, knows where to go, things to do etc, even on free time they are making recommendations and helping you where required, they really make the whole trip so smooth. The itinerary itself is so well planned, well communicated and gives you access to some of the most beautiful parts of the country.The accommodation and food recommendations are perfect, all hotel check ins went smoothly and hotels were of such a high quality and the same can be said for the restaurants we ate at and the activities we did. The team work so hard to make the trip work for the group to ensure everyone gets the best experience out of it & I will certainly be booking again on another tour with Backpacking Through I would like to thank our guides Jhony and Vanna, both full of an excellent knowledge of the country, the people, religion and history, no question was unanswered & always up for a party and drinking on the nights!

What can I say, this company and the tours they offer is like family to me now - having previously done Backpacking Through Vietnam and Backpacking Through Cambodia, I had a standard set in my head on what to expect - this was certainly met and dare I say exceeded at time! I’ve done/accomplished so many personal achievements along the way with two fabulous guides whom will be forever friends for life along with the other people on tour with you. Heart and S are a match made in Heaven to travel with, and you can go to them with anything and they will do their best to help no matter the time of day or night - you guy’s are the best, thank you for everything and thank you for always making me push myself further and further to come out with so many wonderful memories.

Just finished on the 17 day New Zealand Tour and it was amazing. My group leader Lauren made the experience amazing she was always happy to help and she was really informative about everywhere we were and explained so much about Māori culture. It was my birthday on day 1 and Lauren and the group made the day amazing. I would definitely recommend the north and south trip. I was able to do so many different activities and even managed to jump out of a plane in the north so would definitely recommend the extra activities that can be added to your trip!

I did a 17-day tour in New Zealand and it was absolutely amazing! I loved it. Some days were full of activities and a busy program, but there was still enough free time to explore and enjoy everything at your own pace. Our group leader, Sellina, was helpful and supportive the whole time—always in a good mood, full of energy, and bringing positive vibes. I would highly recommend it, especially for solo female travelers.

Took the Vietnam tour with Backpacking Tours and wow, just wow! Huy, our guide, was a fountain of knowledge and the most enthusiastic person you'll ever meet. He made sure we soaked in all the cultural gems and hidden spots. The tour was well-organized, punctual, and every day was a new adventure. Highly recommend for anyone looking to dive deep into Vietnam's beauty with a top-quality tour company. Absolutely worth every penny!
