    Bad experience, often dirty rooms in loud areas, one time I even had to share a bed with a man. The tour guide made me buy gems, saying it would be an investment, having a brother who designs jewelry who "proved" the worth of the stones. Turned out the stones were a ripoff, manipulated with lots of glass. With that kind of money, I could have made myself a way better experience and the next time I travel I will organize it myself. I really trusted this guy. After the vacation he did not answer any messages anymore. This provider takes a big bunch of money to put you in cheap hotels, often we visited temples, so it wouldnt be expensive. Im not gonna lie, we had some really, really great moments, but the journey still leaves a bad taste in the mouth for all the money gone, with not getting the aquivalent value.

    Just back from the most amazing 3 weeks in Thailand. I can't reccomend this tour enough it was so well organised and such an excellent way to experience an amazing country, trying all the wonderful food and exploring so many different areas! The trip wouldn't have been the same without our tour guide S, he went above and beyond for our group and made our experience so wonderful and one we will never forget! He really looked after us and gelled the group together. Also shout out to our driver Benz who really took care of us and made the travelling around so stress free. When our train broke down Benz came to pick us up and drove the extra 7 hours to take us to the next destination. Thank you so much to S and benz for making this an experience of a life time!

Their local knowledge was invaluable, and their friendly demeanour made all the difference. The trip was the perfect blend of excitement and relaxation, with everything organised to the highest standard. Truly a top-quality tour.

    Backpacking Tours are the ones to go with if you want to see Thailand properly. Tony and S, our guides, were knowledgeable and really friendly. They showed us all the hidden gems and made sure we all had a laugh while doing it. The group felt like family by the end of the trip. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

    Incredible! That’s the only way to describe our Thailand tour with BTT. Our guides, S and Tony, were outstanding, providing us with rich insights into each location we visited. Their passion for their country and their job made our experience unique and enjoyable. It’s more than just a tour; it’s a doorway to new experiences and friendships. Can’t recommend them enough!

    Unbelievable trip with Backpacking Tours! The whole experience was seamless from start to finish. Heart and K, our tour guides, were the life of the party and the soul of the journey. They ensured everyone felt included and each site we visited was more breathtaking than the last. Totally recommend this if you want to dive deep into Thai culture with some awesome new friends along for the ride. I’m already planning my next adventure with them!
