It was okay.

Nahhh just kidding, it was the absolute best time! Our guides were the ultimate duo and handled such a large group so well. Some of the activities were completely breathtaking and something you need to experience! With such a big group, we were worried about people grating on each other but it just wasn’t an issue at all. By the end of the tour, leaving everyone was harder than expected and 5 of us ended up travelling together to Vietnam! What an amazing company, thankyou all so much. Also a huge shout out to K who was training and did such a great job. Your English is awesome man, don’t stress it! Overall, amazing company, amazing guides and amazing experience. Dont think, just book it!

The tour of Thailand is honestly one of the best tours you can go on!
S (the tour guide) went out of his way to make sure we all had the best time and even adapted the tour as we went along to make sure everyone saw and did everything they wanted to do. If you needed the toilet or food he would get you there in 5 minutes!

As a female solo backpacker I couldn’t have felt more safe. I felt immediately comfortable in a completely new country. Special shout out to Ben and Krit (the drivers) who were absolutely amazing!

If you are looking to go to Thailand, definitely choose this company!

I booked the 17-day Japan tour for my daughter, and she had such a good time. Mai was really helpful. Thanks for all your help

Amazing trip to South Africa 🇿🇦 with our even more amazing tour guide Liezl. This trip has been the perfect mix of culture, excitement, laughter and new experiences! I loved and will never forget the safaris! There is an option in Hlane Royal National Park to do a Rhino walk and I would 100% recommend! You get out the jeep and walk up close, definitely do it!!! And our group leader sets a very high standard. Liezl is kind, extremely caring, funny, organised and will do anything for her guests!! You need batteries, Liezl literally ran to get them for me!! You not happy with something, Liezl will take care of it!! Liezl will make sure you have the best trip ever but she sets the bar high now for other guides! Thankyou Liezl for everything, keep being you and never change!! Would 100% recommend this trip! You will not regret it and will make memories for a lifetime!!

India and Nepal are beautiful countries! There is so much to see and explore. It was an amazing trip and I felt in love with the culture of India and the beautiful mountains in Nepal!

After having an amazing time with BTT, I wasn’t sure if BTV could be anywhere near as good. But I am SO glad I booked on. We had an incredible 23 days, with an amazing group, the perfect mix of activities and our brilliant tour guides - Roy & Juan. I’d strongly recommend you come on this life-changing, fun and adventurous tour. Thank you BTV!
