Had an amazing time exploring costa rica with the best guide Mariangel. She brought everyone together with good vibes and lots of laughs. Wouldn't have been the same without her. She always went above and beyond and got us to the best local places. Knowledgeable on all animals and cultures in costa rica with action packed activities and also the option to relax when needed

This is the most incredible company. S (tour guide) is amazing. Safe, fun, adventurous, professional. Just book it !!!!

All i'm going to start with is, don't think about booking it, do it. Starting off this tour I was very nervous travelling alone to a country across the world. When i got there it all changed, you meet people that are so amazing it breaks your heart leaving them at the end of the trip. The country was so beautiful and the tour guides were absolutely amazing, they make the trip so much fun! S and heart are amazing at their jobs, they never let any day be dull. The things that are organized on the itinerary was very well put together, you get a great mix of relaxing and partying (they can take you to places to drink if you'd like) and the things you do on the trip will stay with you for a life time. I give this trip 5 stars hands down, and will be planning to book with this company again! You won't regret it!

My partner and I have been out in Thailand for over 2 weeks now and the tour so far has been absolutely fantastic. With a week to go we have already covered so much of what the country has to offer and yet there is still more to do! We have faced challenges and done things we never thought we could, and now have some unforgettable memories. Our tour guide S and driver Kit made the entire experience so special and immersed us in Thai culture, answered questions about the country and introduced us to friends which made the trip even more memorable. I can truly recommend the tour to anybody wanting to travel the world as this is a safe and effective way to do just that. The best trip I have ever been on, hands down and some life-long friends made too. 10/10.

Edited 12th July 2022 following a second trip to Vietnam.

Following on from Thailand we travelled to Vietnam where our Tour guide Huy (Jackie) showed us his beautiful yet complex country. We made so many new friends and memories. Having Huy's knowledge and know-how whilst here has been indispensable and made the trip feel safe and seamless from start to finish. The food, culture and scenery should be experienced by anyone looking to travel the world. Another amazing adventure from Backpacking tours. Thank you 🙏

Highly recommended.

Just finished the Vietnam tour. This is my second tour with Backpacking tours and both tours have been excellent.
The tours are well organised and a good way to see a country without having to worry about anything. Even on free days the guides can recommend activities and get involved themselves.
Thanks to Roy for being an excellent tour guide on the Vietnam tour and thanks to Heart, S and K for the Thailand tour.

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.
