This was my first time doing a tour with INTRO Travel and they did not disappoint! Everything from start to finish was organised for me. From hotels, to restaurants to transport, I didn’t need to worry about a thing! I loved everything about the trip but my favourite bit was staying at Sarana Bungalows and seeing the amazing beaches and view points in Koh Phangan. The locals are so friendly and it’s lovely to see the bond between the locals and the group leaders. I made memories I’ll never forget and friends for life. The best way to see Thailand, I definitely recommend the the 9 day Thailand tour. Thank you INTRO Travel!

This was an amazing trip tons of fun! The drive was fun and Trent made it fun by having us play games along the way. Unfortunately it was foggy despite the weather being sunny and warm when we left Sydney but thats mother nature I guess. It was fun after that we all had drinks together. I would recommend for solo and friends traveling especially. Oh and the BBQ was great!

We thoroughly enjoyed this indepth look at this beautiful city. Our guide, Danny, was so very knowledgeable and accomodating.

Stopped off at Blue mountains national park to see Kangaroos in wild in our Blue mountains tour. Went on few rides through which were good, certainly I recommend Blue mountains Cable car. Finally, we had an easy hike round the forest area. Great
