The whole trip was well thought out and planned, and Jody gives personal attention to all. I made friends and future travel buddies and look forward to more trips with Globe Drifters!

I recently returned from my first Globe Drifters tour experience with Jodie through Thailand. Absolutely Fantastic!! The trip was well organized and Jodie did a stellar job on all arrangements and excursions. The group of fellow travelers were wonderful and we have become friends now that we are back home in the San Francisco Bay Area. Great Job Jodie!

I went to Thailand with Globe Drifters in a couple of years ago, so this review is long overdue! The entire trip was nothing short of AMAZING. Even from before leaving home to go to Thailand, Jodie kept me very well-informed and was very happy to answer my thousands of questions! This plus the detailed notes she prepared about getting to the hotel from the Bangkok airport made me feel really well-prepared for the trip. On the trip, I loved everything, including the hotels which were some of the most unique I've seen! The Klong Toey market in Bangkok was a highlight and it felt very authentic unlike many of the more touristy markets that you can find there. Also, I absolutely loved the accommodation throughout the whole trip, especially the floating lake hotels in Khao Sok National Park and the tree house hotels outside of Chiang Mai. Probably the most memorable experience and the main reason I went on the trip was the Lantern Festival. Words can't even describe how awesome it was to see all the lanterns floating into the night sky. Plus, the celebrations in Chiang Mai during that time were crazy fun! The entire trip was very well-planned and Jodie was on the trip and she really made me feel like I was her friend rather than her customer. This was probably the only trip I've been on where I wasn't exhausted at the end and probably could have stayed longer if I didn't have to go back home for work! It was a perfect mix of planned activities and free time. Thanks to Jodie and Globe Drifters for the trip of a lifetime!
