I wanted to share my positive experience with Bookmundi regarding my recent 18-day 'Zen and Scenic Japan' tour. The booking process was remarkably easy and hassle-free, which was a huge relief. The customer service team deserves special praise for their patience and polite responses to my many questions, making me feel fully supported. The tour was more affordably priced than similar ones from other companies, and the bonus program was an appreciated addition. Because of this excellent experience, Bookmundi has earned a permanent client. Thank you for such a great journey.

Just Come home from the North and South New Zealand tour with Lauren. What an adventure from white water rafting to late night chats there was never a dull moment. When you spend weeks with strangers they really become such good friends with amazing memories. Lauren was the best tour leader ever !!! The Trip wouldn’t be the same without her, when I lost something valuable to me during the trip she went above and beyond to help me find it Thank you Lauren (Best Tour Leader) 🫶

Scott. POn Mar 22, 2025

Went on the intro tour to New Zealand South Islands. Was an absolute amazing experience and covered a lot of the beautiful spots on the island. Have to give a special thanks to the group leader Lauren Ryan, who really made it what it was. She went above and beyond. Any question, help or advice needed she would go out of her way for you. Always energetic and wants everyone to have the best time. She made sure everyone felt part of the group and more so a short term family.

I did 17 Days in New Zealand (North and South Islands) They took us around the cultural sites too and fed us plenty of local knowledge during the long bus ride. Everything was well organised Team leader had lots of recommendations in each place we stayed Also had a few chill days to catch up with home or laundry I personally struggle with mingling in general but my team leader made extra effort to encourage us to mix with other people in our groups. 10/10 would travel with Intro Travel

The 17 day New Zealand intro tour is brilliant. The activities were all well thought out and it touches on the majority of the highlights of NZ. Danny (group leader) is a legend!

I just did the New Zealand North & South Island tour. It was on of the best tours Ive ever been on. From the people, the itinerary, the activities and transport- it was just all done so well. A huge part of the tour being so great was our group leader Danny, he really took care of us and helped us with everything. From the first message before the tour started to helping us throughout the tour. Not only that he was overall just an amazing & lovely person that brought so much fun and joy to the group. Thanks so much Danny

Ian. SOn Oct 22, 2024

Excellent

I recently did the north and south of New Zealand and had the absolute best time! Most of the reason behind this was our incredible group leader Danny who not only helped me when I arrived and had an awkward encounter with the hostel I was in, but he was consistently keeping everyone engaged with all activities, encouraging us to put our phones away and enjoy the tour and most importantly just made sure we not only knew where we were, all the facts and cultural significance but just made sure we appreciated this gorgeous country with the perfect blend of professionalism and humour. Genuinely, thank you to Danny who made the experience so memorable and I will definitely be booking with Intro again! ˜

Oliver. COn Oct 22, 2024

I have had the best experience of my life so far doing the north and south of NZ.

So many amazing experiences with the most amazing people! Couldnt have asked for better! Absolutely brilliant.
