What can I say, this company and the tours they offer is like family to me now - having previously done Backpacking Through Vietnam and Backpacking Through Cambodia, I had a standard set in my head on what to expect - this was certainly met and dare I say exceeded at time! I’ve done/accomplished so many personal achievements along the way with two fabulous guides whom will be forever friends for life along with the other people on tour with you. Heart and S are a match made in Heaven to travel with, and you can go to them with anything and they will do their best to help no matter the time of day or night - you guy’s are the best, thank you for everything and thank you for always making me push myself further and further to come out with so many wonderful memories.

Fantastic tour! The 10 days tour is a perfect way to travel the coast between Sydney and Brisbane. The itinerary is a great mix of group activities and free time. The accommodation was comfortable, especially at Bryon Bay, and my tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable.

I've just completed the 17 day Japan trip and I wanted to say a big thank you to Charlie for such an amazing trip, I had so much fun and I'm sure everyone else did too. It wouldn't have run so smoothly without your expert guidance and support throughout the trip. Thank you for being such an amazing leader, and keep up the great work!

I travelled to Thailand as a solo traveller and came away with a brand new family. I cannot express how much I have enjoyed myself over the past three weeks, with a special thanks going out to tour guides S and Tony for making this trip run so smoothly.

I would highly recommend this tour to anyone that is thinking about booking it in the future! ��

My trip to South Africa was made so much better thanks to Liezl. She has a wonderful way of sharing the history and culture of the area that keeps you engaged the entire time. She is a true professional and just a lovely person to spend the day with. Thank you, Momma!!!!

This tour was without doubt one of the best experiences of my life! I got to see every bit of a wonderful country, did some amazing things and met some truly fantastic people along the way. I’d always wanted to visit Vietnam and I’m so glad I did it with BTV. The guides, Leo and Jackie, had a really in-depth knowledge of the country which made it even more special than I’d hoped for. It was also great to experience it all with the brilliant people in our group! Thanks for the memories guys and I’d recommend this tour in a heartbeat!
