Reviews of Small Group tours to Thailand
At the beginning, I hesitate between travel Thailand by myself. But finally, me and my friend made the booking with this trip. I love the fact that it was small group just 6 peoples. It less head each. I also have some time that I can observe the town by my own. That is a right combination between private and join with. Best memory, Well organise, Worry free. Hightly recommend this tour to any one.

- Full Moon Island Hopper
Trutravels baby, I had so much fun on this tour and made some amazing friends. I really needed a holiday and decided I wanted to go to Thailand, I only had a limited amount of time off work and thought what's the best way to see everything, so I typed Into Google tours of Thailand and up popped Trutravels and what a stroke of luck. 18 days doesn't sound like a long time of travelling but I saw and did so many things from partying it up on Khao San road to kayaking around railey beach and watching Muay Thai fights while eating Thai food. Trutravels really have done there homework and give you the experience you want, you hear about backpackers spending all there time and money deciding on where to go next but he reality of it is is that you'll end up going to the same place every one else does so why not let somebody organise it for you, all I had to do was sit back and relax and drink buckets. what sets Trutravels apart from rest is the fact that they appoint you a guide, now I know other company's do it aswell but the guides at Trutravels are well mannered genuine people who really do love Thailand and also there jobs, I had Harry as my guide and he really made sure we all had the best time, he's always up for laugh and his relationships with the locals is amazing he treats them with a huge amount of respect and in turn they treat the whole group with respect, making us feel so welcome and safe, I couldn't recommend doing a Trutravels tour more and if you can get onto one of Harry's groups do you'll have the best time and you won't stop laughing. Thank you Trutravels for what I can only describe as the trip of a lifetime, I will be back. Harry if your reading this thank you and don't shave your beard off you'll look to young. (Inside joke)
- Bangkok and Ancient Capitals, Small Group Tour
It was a great experience overall, was able to visit different places in a short time period. From Bangkok to Ayutthaya, then to Chiang Mai. Our guide is very informative and fun. Especially like the Thai food market.
