I have now completed 4 intro tours, and each trip just gets better! We have just finished the Philippines tour, and the expeditions are out of this world, but what made this trip stand out most was our tour guide Zoe! she always went above and beyond, to make sure everyone was catered for and having the best time. Zoe was full of knowledge and ideas, and had more patience than I thought was possible. I would redo this trip all over again if possible with Zoe! I highly highly recommend this trip if you;re an adrenaline seeker, and looking to have a once in a life time trip
