What people love about touring Southern Thailand solo
- Thailand Island Hopper - Feel Free Travel
WOW! Just Wow. I was concerned about getting around Thailand and not knowing anything but these guys REALLY know what they are doing, especially Adam; perfect combination of fun, knowledge and safety, which I think is important if you're a bit apprehensive in a new country. I really felt looked after and for the money I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat! #Goujons2019 <3
- Thai Island Hopper West (Standard)
Lee is an exceptional TM. She has knowledge of the local area and brilliant rapport with the locals. She takes the time to ensure everyone on the trip gets their individual wants met whilst on the tour. She is very approachable and communicates effectively. Couldn't have asked for a more fun and caring TM. Keep up the good work Lee!
- Island Hopping in Thailand In 9 Days
Tour was very well organized. All the island excursions took us to the hi lights of the Phuket, Phi Phi and Krabi areas.
