Just finished the Thailand; Vietnam 29 day intro trip and had the best time!! The group leaders Dan and Izzy (Thailand) and Charlie (Vietnam) were so welcoming and friendly and made me feel so at ease travelling around, as well as being genuinely lovely people to just have a laugh with. The itinerary is a perfect mixture of activities and I loved every single day, highly recommend!
