    Overall, the tour was amazing, it allowed you too see so many different parts of Thailand, from the south and Bangkok, to the north like chaing mai, as well as visiting islands and Khao sok national park. Paula our group leader was the best we could’ve wished for, she was so helpful and full of local knowledge and culture. The local tour guides were incredible, they got across information about the local areas in an easy to process and fun way so you could enjoy the moment without feeling like you was in a Lesson. Would highly recommend booking any travel with intro, it was very easy from start to finish and all the staff made the trip unforgettable

    Just completed the 18 day tour in Thailand with the sensation Katie wood! The trip itself feels jam packed with still plenty of free time to mooch about each location on the tour. Katie and the local guides make this tour by being full of knowledge regarding the tour and locations! My favourite part has to be the hill trek and the Karen village was incredible even with the rain (it made it better)

    Had the most amazing trip and new experiences which I never thought I’d do. Emma was our tour lead and couldn’t have asked for a better one. There’s a range of things to do on the itinerary so you get to experience the most of Thailand, making new friends and memories along the way. Would have love to spend a bit more time in Phuket to explore a bit more but the itinerary was so good.

    Emma has been an exceptional group leader. Her kindness, thoughtfulness, and attentiveness truly set her apart. She consistently goes out of her way to ensure that everyone feels comfortable, included, and thoroughly enjoys their experience. Emma not only fulfills her role — she goes above and beyond it with grace and genuine care. We’re incredibly lucky to have her leading the way. Let me know if you'd like a more formal version, something funny and light, or personalized with a specific event or tone!

    Asked on January 27th, 2025

    Could we add one more night to Kao Sok and take one night away from Koh Phangan?

    Tour Details
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten January 2025

      Unfortunately we cannot amend the itinerary to do this. We spend two days in the Khao Sok area on our Thai Experience 13 day trip. On our 18 day trip, we spend just 1 night on the floating bungalows - it's amazing!

    Asked on October 30th, 2024

    Is the tour scheduled for November 11 guaranteed to depart?

    Tour Details
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten October 2024

      Currently the 9th and 11th are fully booked, but we may be able to take over the capacity on the 11th, and there is 1 space available on the 7th. As the start date is soon we need to check availability with the hotels before we can confirm.

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten November 2024

      Can you confirm your gender, as we are unable to confirm without knowing how the rooms will be allocated?

    Asked on August 22nd, 2024

    i have a couple of questions about this tour. 1. the moon party that's held on December 13, would we be able to attend? 2, is there a tour on our free time with more animal (baby tigers)?

    Other
    Tour Details
    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten August 2024

      The Full Moon falls on the 15th December and the Full Moon party is in Koh Phangan, if you choose to join us on the 4th December, you will be in Koh Phi Phi at this point. However, whilst you are in Koh Phangan, there are still parties that are held on the same beach where the Full Moon party is which you will be able to attend. As the health and wellbeing of animals is extremely important to us, we do not visit anywhere on the trip that you can visit tigers. We only visit wildlife sanctuaries and rescue centres operating with the highest animal welfare and conservation standards.

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten August 2024

      I'm actually celebrating my 35 birthday. I was thinking between 14-18 days. I was reading into the full moon party and really want to experience it. I'm still trying to figure out which tour would be best for me. I would love a mix of everything Thailand can offer.

    • J

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten August 2024

      I just have to be back to USA by December 22. So which trip would allow me to be at the full moon party

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten August 2024

      If you were to join us on the Thai Experience trip starting on the 9th December, you would be in Koh Phangan for the Full Moon Party. Your trip would then finish in Phuket on the 21st December. As there are no activities planned on this day, you would be able to fly back home on this day. We do only have 3 spots left on this start date, so if you are keen to join us, I would recommend securing your spot ASAP!

    • J

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten September 2024

      And other question would my mom be able to join the tour. She's over the age limit but is very fit and mobile.

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten September 2024

      We can take group members up until 60, if she is under 60 then she can definitely join along!

    • J

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten September 2024

      oo no she just turn 62 and would love to join the trip

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten September 2024

      The majority of people on our tours are aged 18 to 40, and our full moon party trips tend to attract a slightly younger, party minded crowd too. But as long as she is comfortable with that, and has an appetite for adventure and is happy bonding with people of all backgrounds, I'm sure she'll fit in fine on our Thai Experience trip!

    • J

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten October 2024

      how much is it?

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten October 2024

      The standard price for our Thai Experience trip is $1799 USD.

    • J

      Jorge

      TravelerWritten October 2024

      thats prefect. how many spots are left? also on the link it says it cost $1899

    • INTRO TravelOperatorWritten October 2024

      Sorry my apologies! The standard price of our Thai Experience trip is $1799 however, we do have departure based pricing and depending on the popularity of the start date, the price can fluctuate slightly. Due to the popularity of this start date, the price has increased to $1899. We do only have 4 spots remaining, so if you are keen to join us on this start date, I would recommend booking your spot ASAP!
