I had the absolute best time exploring Thailand with Sea as our guide! She took care of our group of 20 girls with so much energy, positivity, and genuine care, it truly made our trip unforgettable. From taking us to the best local restaurants to being right by our side as we rock climbed in Railay Beach, Sea went above and beyond to make sure we had an amazing experience. Her enthusiasm and passion for what she does are infectious, and she created such a fun and supportive environment for all of us. I would 100% do another trip with Sea as the guide. She is awesome, and I’m so grateful for the incredible community we built during this trip!
Fantastic locations and Arthur was a great tour guide! Arthur was a lot of fun and very knowledgeable. Railay Beach was especially amazing. Stunning location and the activities were amazing.
The tour was enjoyable and it gave a vast insight into Thailand’s culture, as well as showing us well renowned sights. The itinerary was timely (allowing time for individual time) and fun to participate in. I would recommend Tru Travels for trips: it feels safe within a group of likeminded and similar-aged people, the itinerary is organised for you and the guides are able to communicate on your behalf.
We traveled through Thailand with this travel operator, and it was absolutely incredible! The organization was excellent, everything was well-planned, and we had the chance to enjoy amazing food throughout the trip. We experienced all aspects of Thailand – from breathtaking landscapes to vibrant city life – and it was truly unforgettable. The whole journey was hassle-free and perfectly arranged, making it easy to fully enjoy every moment. We will definitely do this again and highly recommend this company to everyone! If you’re looking for a seamless and well-organized adventure in Thailand, they are the perfect choice.
I didn’t know what to expect going into this tour but I had the absolute best time and that’s thanks to Tommy and Peanut! They put us at ease immediately and made sure the group were all included so that we all bonded so quickly. They’re incredibly knowledgeable and taught us so much about Thai culture, but also the most fun and caring tour guides ever with never ending smiles. They answered all of our questions about Thailand, gave us great recommendations for each place, and always made sure everyone was safe and were on hand for help at any time. The tour has so many great activities and experiences that I’ll remember for the rest of my life, and Tommy and Peanut always got involved! They constantly made us laugh and have the best senses of humour. They’ve become our real TruFam and we will miss them forever! ขอบคุณ คะ Tommy and Peanut 🥜🐱🫶🏼🇹🇭🫰🏼
Went on the 9 day Thailand trip on 5th August and can honestly tell Tommy and Sea were the absolute best tour guides we could have asked for - myself and the whole group wouldn’t have had the experience we had if it wasn’t for them. It’s a nerve wracking experience to join a group solo to travel together but they just immediately made us feel so safe and comfortable as well as providing such fun and enjoyment. It was an emotional goodbye to say the least as they became such good friends as well as guides, but they will forever be a part of my story and I’ll forever be thankful for the experience they gave me. We love you Tommy and sea 🤟🏻🤍
Tommy and Peanut were my tour guides on the 9 days escape Thailand on the 9th June 2024 and they were honestly amazing. So much fun whilst also being SO informative and professional. Literally the perfect balance and told us everything we were doing or needed. Had the best trip ever so much so that I’m going back to do some more travel as they made the experience so good. Couldn’t recommend enough.
Great itinerary and well organised trip. Our tour guide was Sea and she was amazing. Very confident, caring, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable in every aspect of the trip. Always cared for us and helped us have a lot of fun together as a group
This was my first international trip with this local tour operator, and it was an unforgettable experience, thanks to our wonderful tour guides, Bee and Sea. I'm giving a 5 star review due to the immense care they gave all of us, exhibiting professionalism, patience, kindness, and taking the time to connect with us all on a personal level. There are some things regarding accommodations and the itinerary that I felt could have been different, but that boils down to personal preferences and it doesn't overshadow the overall wonderful experience. Missing Thailand and my new Thai friends, Bee and Sea, already 🥹❤️
I had such a great experience in Thailand! We hit so many hotspots and I feel like I learned so much about the culture. Not only did we go to the spots, but our guide, Sea, told us stories, and gave us history lessons on each place we visited. Not many guides add that into the experience! She always made sure everyone’s needs were met and we made it to all the spots on the itinerary, plus more! We saw the most beautiful beaches. She made the experience more enjoyable because her personality lite up the room and the experience! I can’t wait to travel with this operator again!
I had two guides Whiskey and Smile for the Thailand Escape Tour. They were both incredibly kind, helpful and overall amazing guides. Smile was with us for the majority of the tour and was absolutely fantastic. He made the trip what it was and is brilliant at his job, knowledgeable and he made sure everyone in our group was well looked after and planned the perfect trip. I'd come back to this tour operator just to have Smile be my guide! Smile - never change! Great 'Flashpacker' trip, worth spending a little more for comfort and nicer stays.
It was a 10 day travel experience, and from Day 1, we got to experience all Thailand had to offer. We got to see so much of Thailand within a short amount of time, from kayaking, Phi Phi Island, Khao Sok National Park and the elephant sanctuary, everything was amazing and wonderfully organised which made the trip stress free.
An incredible trip with Gals Who Travel, our tour guides Tommy and Peanut were absolutely amazing! They couldn't do enough for us and put a smile on my face every day. I couldn’t have wished for two better people to lead our adventure. Their knowledge, enthusiasm, and warmth made the whole experience unforgettable. Can't wait for my next trip!
Tommy was an absolute joy to have as a tour leader on my first trip with this tour operator. Tommy conducts himself with such kindness and works incredibly hard to ensure everyone is happy and is having an excellent experience. Tommy really made my experience in Thailand incredible and I would recommend him in the future especially if all the guides are as attentive and enthusiastic as him. Tommy made me feel safe as a solo traveler, always gave AMAZING recommendations, and made travel so seamless. Tommy is so interesting to listen to and he is such an expert at what he does. I am so looking forward to my next adventure.
I did the Flashpacker tour in Thailand as a solo traveller and everything was well arranged by this tour company. I felt so safe the whole time! I wasn’t the only solo traveller and I didn’t feel alone for one minute. The activities really lived up to expectations and even ones I was nervous about such as rock climbing were great and I felt very supported by my guide especially when I was nervous! I wanted to get a bamboo tattoo and he helped me find a safe place to do this which was really good. The elephants was definitely the highlight of the whole trip for me! I’m going to book the Bali trip next with a friend! Thanks Arthur ❤️
I have never traveled alone before, so I was very nervous for this trip. From start to finish, Sea made sure I was taken care of and comfortable. She took us to amazing restaurants, recommended food according to our tastes, made sure all taxis / flights were smooth and on time, reiterated the itinerary every night to make sure everyone knew the plans, was knowledgeable in history, and took us to fun spots for nightlife. The trip was absolutely amazing and action packed. I have never experienced anything like it, and it would not have been the same without Sea. I highly recommend the Thailand flash packer tour, and if you get Sea, you’ll have the time of your life!!
The Thailand Escape 9 day tour was absolute bliss, I wish it didn’t have to come to an end. Sea, our wonderful guide, was attentive, informative, sensitive to everyone’s needs but made it all so fun. I loved her additional recommendations for food and activities. My personal favourite memories were the boat trip and elephant sanctuary. The accommodation was AMAZING! I had the best time and was so emotional to leave but was happy knowing I had made the best memories!
Absolutely loved Thailand. The people were so nice the food was good. Got to do so much
Was such a lovely time! Sea and Peanut were super upbeat, and they did a great job of adapting quickly and making sure we had a good time when the weather wasn’t cooperating or external factors interfered. They were very knowledgeable and honestly hilarious.
9 days through Thailand with the best group of girls led by the most awesome tour guides Sea & Peanut. We travelled through Bangkok, Chao Sok National Park, Railay, Phi Phi & Phuket. Sea and Peanut keep everything on track, fun and exciting. They have so much knowledge about Thailand that they are always eager to share and nothing is too much for them. They made us feel incredibly welcome in their country and well cared for throughout.
Sonny and Max really made our trip special! They are extremely knowledgeable, welcoming, caring and fun! They made the group feel like a family and we have missed them a lot since we left. They showed us so many wonderful things about Thailand, which made us fall in love with the country! We cannot wait to be back and will hopefully see them again next year!
Sonny and Max were amazing guides, they were so knowledgable and made all the activities so much fun. Overall I had the best time, the boat trips and the elephant sanctuary were definite highlights! Thank you Max and Sonny for making the trip unforgettable!
We had great time everyone was happy and will thinking to come back again soon!!!
The Thailand escape trip was amazing. We covered a lot of areas and activities that I wouldn’t have been able to do solo. Scotty was very knowledgeable and went above and beyond to make sure we all had a great time. Would definitely recommend this trip for anyone wanting to experience Thailand in a short amount of time.
The experience (9-day Thailand Escape tour) was great, our tour guide Scotty was very knowledgable and he knew the best spots in town for going out - bars / restaurant / massages!! I have made some lifelong friends, our group was amazing! Maybe see you on another tour soon?! ;-)
I found out about this travel specialist through a friend who had taken a tour in Thailand. I was a little bit nervous to travel by myself but I took the risk because she reassured me that it would be amazing. She was correct! I took the thailand escape 9 day tour with Scotty and honestly it’s been the most memorable and amazing few days ever. I love how everything had been planned out to us to the tee but also at the same time everything was completely optional. The tour itself is fantastically well planned out, even on my tour (due to weather) we had to reschedule one or two activities, but no worries as this was replaced with something even better. Alongside the tour itself, I have absolutely no words for our tour guide Scotty 🙌🏽 he has been an absolute treasure to me and all my tour gang, he has honestly gone above and beyond for every single one of us at some point this trip. He is so thoughtful and funny and honestly my trip to Thailand would not have been the same without him there from the small details to the big ones. He created such a fun environment, and I’m so glad we had him a friend for life❤️ After such a good experience on this trip I hope to do another trip with them, and hopefully all tour guides are amazing as Scotty and tours planned out as well as this one! Overall experience has been so amazing and memorable, 10000/10
10/10 Scotty was amazing and we packed so much into 9 days! A trip to never forget
The Thailand escape tour was truly amazing! There was so much packed into 9 days and we managed to see so much of Thailand that would have taken so much longer planning it yourself (and probably more expensive!). If we couldn’t do something due to the weather, there was always another option. Every activity was optional and there was no pressure to do something you were not comfortable with. A once in a life time experience.
The 9 day thailand escape tour was absolutely incredible from start to finish. Scotty our tour guide was incredible, and couldn’t have asked for a better guide to travel around Thailand with. The activities were increíble, and we did so much in the 9 days, from sunset boat tours, speed boats around phi phi and all the islands, and washing elephants and much much more! Would totally recommend this to anyone!! Can’t wait to go on another trip!
Had the most amazing trip with this travel specialist. So many incredible activities and our tour guide Scotty always went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and make sure we were enjoying ourselves. Thank you Scotty and operator ❤️
