Can I give this tour a 100/10?! My first time travelling solo and not gonna lie I was scared! But from the first night with everyone I knew I was going to have the time of my life.. I did things with this tour that I would never have imagined to have done and wouldn't have been able to do if I didn't go with this tour. There wasn't one day that I didn't enjoy myself and it was all thanks to the most amazing people, our tour guides Heart & Tony!! They are the most genuine and caring people constantly making sure we were all ok and even on our free days planning trips.. BTT you should be proud of your workers it would be nothing without them! I have made friends for life and love my BTT fam so much �� If your thinking about booking this don't think anymore just go and do it, you really won't regret it �

I just did the 3 week Thailand tour and had the time of my life. I made friends for life and memories I will never forget. Big thank you to our tour guides S & K for making it such a fun trip! Will definitely return to Thailand. Thank you!!!

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.

The 17 day tour of Japan was a trip of a lifetime with many thanks to our group leader Lachie! He effortlessly brought us around Japan allowing us to switch off our brains and fully enjoy the experience. He used his history knowledge to give us greater insight into the places we visited (Hiroshima, Kyoto, Osaka, etc). And lastly, he ensured that everyone felt included and was tapped into how the group felt as a whole which is a vital skill for this profession. I couldn't recommend this trip more ☺️

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.
