So worth the cost, the organisation is all done for you but in a way that activities are optional and you have free time too so you don’t feel pressured into anything but everything that is planned is so fun! Finished Colombia with Carolina and got to know so much more about the country than if we’d done it solo!

Getting to know and helping the community, as well as experiencing such a unique culture I'd never before seen was my favourite moment. The program had the biggest impact on my view on the world, and just how different some places can be. My advice is definitely volunteer, since you're helping people who need it most, and it's an overall great experience.

We done a 11 day trip through Thailand arranged by Backpacking Tours and it was fantastic. Everything was so efficient and fun. The drivers, hotel and excursions were top notch. Mai our contact was amazing! 10 out of 10 - will be booking with them again.

What an experience it has been! So happy I signed up to do the tour such a great way to make new friends and explore Vietnam in depth. The places we have visited have been amazing and our tour guide Jackie has made sure we experienced the very best. The hotels and transport was all spot on and we never had to wait for a bus once!

I would highly recommend coming on the Vietnam tour, it’s been one of it not the best experiences of my life and I would do it again in a heart beat

Thank you again Jackie!

Erin and Jess were so so fantastic and welcoming on the 28 day East Coast tour! Highlights were K’gari and Byron Bay. Would 100% recommend. Only thing to be aware of is that not all meals are included so just budget accordingly
