This was a perfect first multi-day hike for our family. We are gearing up to do some larger ones with our teen. This gave us the perfect amount of support as we started by assessing our levels. The hike itself had beautiful outlooks and interesting things to be learnt at each stop.

I went on the 18 day Thailand intro and had the trip of a lifetime! Everything from even before we arrived was very organised which led to a completely stress free trip. Our group leader Zoe was amazing, bringing such positive vibes from day 1, and provided complete support throughout the trip and for onward travel. Our local guide Aei-ki was fantastic and provided cultural knowledge as we went round. Would highly recommend Intro travel and this amazing country!

I had the best time on the Northern Thailand 14-day tour. It was so relaxing, and I felt completely safe knowing that wherever our tour guide took us would be amazing. I loved supporting local communities and learning about Thai culture in such a personal and meaningful way through our guide.
Some of the highlights for me were hiking to waterfalls, visiting temples, feeding and washing elephants, going river rafting, and so many other unforgettable experiences. My favorite part was hiking up to a small village in the mountains, meeting and getting to know wonderful people, and playing with local children.
Our tour guide also suggested the best restaurants and bars. I loved traveling with so many new people, many of whom I now call friends.
I’ve already recommended this tour to my sister, and I just hope she gets a tour guide as caring and organized as Smile (my tour guide). He shared personal stories that helped us understand the culture through his own experiences, and he was always patient and happy to answer our million questions.
He made sure everyone was safe, whether it was looking after us when we were sick or making sure we got home safely after a night out. He was also incredibly accommodating when it came to any extra wishes or concerns.
Smile was both a caring friend, opening up to us on a personal level, and a great leader who was organized and supportive in every way. He shared so much about the history and culture, making the experience truly meaningful.
I’m so glad Smile was our tour guide and so glad I took this amazing tour.

Culturally enriching tour with many interesting diverse activities. It was wonderful to be in the rural areas and to see how the people live in the little villages. Thailand has a fascinating history and this tour provided very good insight. Thai people are very welcoming, humble and kind. A good level of fitness is necessary to enjoy the trekking experience.

Peanut was absolutely incredible — hands down one of the best tour guides I’ve ever had. From start to finish, they brought such a fun, calm, and welcoming vibe to the group. They kept us so well informed every day, updating the group chat with the plan so clearly that there was never any confusion about what was happening or where we needed to be.
They were unbelievably organised but also so much fun — constantly making us laugh and creating such a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. It honestly felt like travelling with a really good friend. If anyone needed anything, whether it was help finding something, feeling unwell, or just needing a bit of extra support, Peanut always knew exactly what to do or where to go.
The itinerary itself was brilliant, but it was Peanut who made it all so special. I truly couldn’t fault a single thing. If you get the chance to tour with them — take it. You’re in the best hands!!

Guided trip to explore the Mae Taeng valley the active way. Experience a guided jungle trek, paddle your sit-on-top kayak on a scenic lake amidst a national Park. Then, you'll explore the surrounding valley on two wheels. Ride your sturdy mountain-bike through scenic countryside roads and trails, along with your private local tour guide. Get to know all the insights about rice farming, cultivation, village's life and religious sites. The itinerary is flexible as this is a private trip. Spend one night in a boutique hotel in the valley, to avoid the commute back to Chiang Mai city. English speaking adventure tour guide and all adequate equipment is included.
To sum up my experience in one paragraph is an injustice to the beauty and bonds shared on this trip, with the CEO and now good friends I've come to meet. Even to share this trip with my partner by my side has enriched our relationship beyond what we previously had. I get teary-eyed when I think of the time spent hiking through the jungle, sharing wonderful meals at the market, playing cards games on the train, visiting the temples, feeding the elephants, listening to our CEO tell us about the city and people. It all is so majestically overwhelming in the best way possible. This trip was the best one of my life so far!

We had a fantastic trip. Bamba gave us all the information we needed and the guides during the tours were great. We loved Vietnamese countryside, the floating market and the tour to the Cu Chi tunnels was very interesting. Highly recommended, you won't be disappointed.
