About TruTravels

Awesome trip, great way to see so much of Mexico in a short space of time. Top moments were the beach at Holbox, swimming in the 7 colours lagoon, experiencing the cenotes, all the guacamole, delicious breakfast recommendations, seeing Xichen Itsa and biking in Tulum. Our guide was Eve and she was THE BEST. We have done a bunch of other trips and she was by far the most personable, creative, fun, lovely person with a lot of experience and wonderful ability to share her knowledge with us. Highly recommend this trip to anyone who wants to party and catch a lot of culture all in one trip. I loved that the group was only 10 people, gave us a chance to meet everyone and there wasn’t a divide in the group nor too many people.

I completed the Colombia tour, and it was absolutely amazing! Traveling with the group was so much fun (and very safe), and we got to explore a variety of stunning places throughout the country. Colombia truly is a remarkable destination, offering a mix of breathtaking landscapes and vibrant cities. Our tour leader, Manu, was exceptional! His commitment to ensuring we had a fantastic experience was evident in every aspect of the trip.

The trip was an amazing experience and great way to meet lovely girls. Everyone on the trip was so nice and kind. Our guide Gem was so lovely and passionate. She strived to provide us with the best experience each day no matter if bumps popped up along the way. We had a great mixture of planned events and free time which allowed us to explore how we wanted to. Gem was so knowledgeable about cities and I left safe the whole time. Was a trip I will remember forever and am so glad I did it 💛

Just finished the most incredible tour of Italy with Will, Maria, and David. Will was the kindest, funniest, and most amazing tour guide I’ve ever had. He was able to make every moment as fun and stress-free as possible. On the tour I enjoyed learning about the history and culture of Italy; trying different Italian food and wine, and walking to and around different historic sites. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone who loves Italian food and culture. Can’t wait to go on my next TruTravels trip!

Words can not describe how amazing this trip was! Especially our tour guide Kevin, he is a wonderful person and made the trip even better than I could have hoped for! The best part was i decided to share this experience with my 73 year old dad, and Kevin and the rest of the group were wounderful with him, nothing was ever a problem and if there was they would go out of their way to make sure he shared the same experience as the rest of us. Especially very step stair, my heart would be in my mouth but by day two they all had a system where they would all grab an arm each and someone would stand in front just in case he slipped, it was so heartwarming to see 🥺 One morning Kevin even went out of his way to take dad on a walking tour of Hanoi but instead of walking, dad was carried on a push bike so that he didn’t miss out and then he later came to collect us and took us out on the same tour on foot. He made me and my dad feel like we weren’t a burden or anything! He was utterly amazing and I’m so thankful he was our tour guide. Thank you Kevin for being such an amazing person and going above and beyond for us. I recommend this tour to anyone! And don’t be afraid to take your mum or dad because I promise you’ll be in safe hands with Kevin 🥰 lots of love Betty Bee and Mr Tony 🖤💛

I absolutely loved my TruTravels!

I absolutely loved my trutravels experiences! I did the Colombia and Costa Rica trip and had the best time! Everything was very well planned out, the leaders were amazing, and I met so many cool people. I’ll definitely be doing more trips in the future!

I would definitely recommend Tru travels

I would definitely recommend Tru travels, I’ve had an amazing and unforgettable trip. Our tour guides Nonnie and Gun were incredible - organised and informative but most importantly enormous fun. I’ve made friends for life and I’m heartbroken to be leaving. I’m very glad I decided to do this tour.

The Greece island hopping tour was incredible! Especially the tour guide, Will, he was so attentive, brought such a positive vibe and so organised! Had the best summer ever!!

Tour guide - Monk Bali experience 23/03/24 First time solo travelling and I will be doing it again with trutravels - tour guide was amazing, felt so lucky have him. Nothing was ever too much trouble, there for all of us 24/7. Would recommend to anyone 🫶🏻

I am on my final day of the 10 day Bali Experience and I honestly can’t put into words how much I’ve loved my trip. As my first time solo travelling I was a bit nervous, but this was the perfect trip. Everything about it has been amazing and the activities have exceeded my expectations. One of the best things about the trip was our tour guide - Ibing we love you soooo much. Ibing has been so kind, caring and helpful and has always gone above and beyond to make sure everyone in the group feels safe and is having a great time. I am going to miss Ibing and my whole TruTravels family so much.

Highly recommend the Mexico trip 🌮🇲🇽. I had the BEST time. Eve, our guide, made it extra special. She was so knowledgeable, fun and helpful. I felt safe and part of the group the entire time. Thank you Eve and the rest of the Trutravels gang 💙

I did the Vietnam Experience with Lucas and it was an amazing tour! He was on time with all the info we needed, super organized and great company to hang out with! Any culture or history questions were answered and we learned lots of things about this amazing country! I really liked how respectful and mindful he was of others; He knew how to deal with the more sensitive people in the group and was super nice to everyone! My highlights of the trip where : Hoi An and Ninh Binh 😊 The activities were so much fun and the views incredible!! Also, despite the rainy weather he made sure we had a great time! I would definitely recommend him to my friends! Thanks Lucas for a great trip!!

Just finished the greek island hopping trip with Tru. This was my fourth tour and they just keep getting better and better. Our tour guide Will was just the BEST. He really cares and looks after the group before, during and after the tour. His knowledge was brilliant, I learnt so many things from him about the history / and the places. The itinerary was a perfect mix of sightseeing, sunsets, beaches, pools and party. The hotel resorts on Mykonos and Ios were amazing!!! 🤩 All the tours are extremely well organised and well thought out, I would definitely recommend this tour and all the others to anyone who is thinking of booking up! You won't be disappointed.

Could not recommend the Mexico Yucatán tour more!! Everly our tour guide was extremely knowledgeable about everything (food, sights, culture, itinerary). She radiated energy and enthusiasm every single day and her love for job really shined through. Evelyn always made the effort to get to know and include everyone. She was the epitome of the perfect tour guide. The overall trip was one I'll never forget and something I know for certain wouldn't have been as memorable and enjoyable if it wasn't for Tru Travels and Evelyn. Not having to worry about transport, times of everything, what we were doing next ect was a dream. Many of the experiences like lunch made my a local family, authentic Mexican restaurants and sights I would not have done or experienced if it wasn't for the itinerary / Tru Travels as I wouldn't have known about them. The tour was a 10/10 for me and no critiques. It's something everyone should do and a trip I’ll never forget :)

I would 100% recommend!

Just finished the 21 day northern Thailand and beaches tour. The tour guides on both parts (Scotty, Whisky, Arthur) were amazing: fun, warm, organised, informative and much more. I really enjoyed the action packed days on the Northern tour including the bike riding, Elephant Sanctuary, waterfalls and water park. I also liked that the south was more chill with beach days, swimming, kayaking and evening parties. I would 100% recommend!

This was the second tour I have done with TruTravels. I have done the Bali experience and the Vietnam tour which were both amazing. The Vietnam tour has been absolutely incredible! The trip wouldn’t have been the same without our tour guide Lucas. He was super friendly, funny and confident from the get go. I loved that on the first night he gave us all a bracelet which was a really nice touch to start the tour with. Lucas was always helpful and knowledgeable. If we ever had any questions (whether it was to do with transport, culture history etc.), he always answered well. This meant that the tour was very culturally enriching and I felt as though I got to learn a lot of really interesting information about Vietnam. Lucas was also absolutely hilarious and would joke about with all of us which made it feel as though we were all a big family. My favourite parts were Ha long Bay, Ninh Binh and Hoi An. The views were stunning and the tour activities were so fun. On the last night, Lucas had handwritten a postcard which was personalised to each of us. He then played the guitar and sang us a song, which made some of us cry. We were all very emotional to be leaving and Lucas/ the rest of the group has left a mark. The tour will have a special place in my heart, thanks to Lucas. Overall, Lucas was not just our tour guide, he was our friend. I’ve booked another true travels tour because I loved it so much. I would definitely recommend!

Just completed the Bali Bliss Experience and it was brilliant. It was my second time travelling with TruTravels having been Mexico last year with them. On the Bali Bliss tour we had Monk as our tour leader and we was awesome. Always making sure everyone was having a good time, he was a lot of fun and brought so much energy to the tour. Highly recommend!!

I did the Croatia tour recently and our guide was Tess, couldn’t recommend her or TruTravels enough! Tess really got everyone involved and was so enthusiastic but also really down to earth and you can really have a laugh with her (she’s also the best photographer and hype girl you’ll meet). She really made the tour what it was and without her and the amazing people I met I wouldn’t have had such a great time! Although we had bad weather with the storm the crew and Tess really turned it around ❤️ Croatia itself was beautiful and I wouldn’t have been able to explore it without this tour and this sailing trip

Luis is an absolute gem and sweetheart! Truly the ultimate tour guide. He was great at injecting fun and energy into the group. His knowledge and passion of Mexican history was outstanding and impressive, really helpful in engaging all of us. His promise of ‘never a bad bite’ is incredibly true. The range and diversity of food spots he shows us was great and sampled numerous delicious dishes. The perfect tour for discovering Mexico, its beautiful culture, people and food. Luis is a massive asset to TruTravels and fundamental in why I loved the trip so much!

I didn’t know what to expect going into this tour but I had the absolute best time and that’s thanks to Tommy and Peanut! They put us at ease immediately and made sure the group were all included so that we all bonded so quickly. They’re incredibly knowledgeable and taught us so much about Thai culture, but also the most fun and caring tour guides ever with never ending smiles. They answered all of our questions about Thailand, gave us great recommendations for each place, and always made sure everyone was safe and were on hand for help at any time. The tour has so many great activities and experiences that I’ll remember for the rest of my life, and Tommy and Peanut always got involved! They constantly made us laugh and have the best senses of humour. They’ve become our real TruFam and we will miss them forever! ขอบคุณ คะ Tommy and Peanut 🥜🐱🫶🏼🇹🇭🫰🏼

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unforgettable Greek Island Adventure with TruTravels! Just finished the Greek Islands tour with TruTravels and it was hands-down the best travel experience of my life! The itinerary was perfect, blending iconic sights with hidden gems across the islands. But what truly made this trip exceptional was our guide, Will. Will isn't just a guide; he's a friend, storyteller, and the heart of the group. His knowledge of Greek culture and history is impressive, and he shares it with infectious enthusiasm. He went above and beyond to make everyone feel included and supported, turning our group of strangers into a tight-knit travel family. Will's humor kept us laughing throughout the trip (ask him about the sweet potato story!), and his organizational skills ensured everything ran smoothly. He handled any hiccups with ease, always having a backup plan. The activities were varied and exciting, from exploring ancient ruins to relaxing on stunning beaches. Accommodations were comfortable, and the local experiences Will arranged gave us a true taste of Greek hospitality. If you're considering a Greek Islands tour, book with TruTravels and hope you get Will as your guide. You won't just have a vacation; you'll have a life-changing adventure filled with laughter, new friendships, and unforgettable memories. Tip: Pack your sense of adventure and be ready to fall in love with Greece!

One of the best weeks of my life! This was me and my friend’s first time working with Tru Travels as creators and it was more than incredible. The Tru Ninjas (especially Rhy) made this week so fun, care free and full of joy! 🤩 We could not have asked for a better crew on board or a group of all girls to join us for a week at sea. 🌊 TRUly a fantastic experience and I hope to continue to both working with and attending trips in the future as for the friends I’ve made I will never forget them and we are already planning a reunion (Rhy included as she’s the best of the best) x

Tour: Mexico - Yucatán Experience Tour guide: Luis Tour Date: 14/07/24 This trip was amazing. My first ever trip with trutravels and I’ll be booking my next soon. I’m happy I got to celebrate my birthday in Mexico. Luis made the experience one to remember for sure. 5 stars I would highly recommend.

I had the best time on the Bali Bliss tour with Tru Travels and our amazing tour guide Ovinda. She made sure everyone felt included and did everything she could to make our time the most enjoyable experience ever. The experience is such a special trip from the amazing activities and meeting the most amazing people and I have made such good friends with everyone on the tour. As a first time solo traveller, I had many doubts but all the stress was taken away by Ovinda and now I am more excited than ever to continue my travels! I highly recommend booking with Tru Travels and anyone who will have Ovinda as their tour guide would be so lucky to have her!

TruTravels went above end beyond!

Had an incredible first experience in Thailand thanks to Nonnie and Gun, our incredible tour guides. They were both professional, friendly, so generous and always smiling themselves or making the group laugh! We were blessed with upgrades in many of the places we visited, for example extra meals thrown in, bigger Ferry, cheaper drinks, premium hotel rooms, and more! It was such a luxury to have everything planned out for us so no thinking was involved, perfect when not having been in Thailand before. At the same time, our tour guides were also really flexible so the group could decide when / where we wanted to go if we had specific interests. Highly recommend TruTravels, can’t flaw them at all and am proud to wear our bonus free TruTravels t-shirt around town ;)

Really great experience here in Bali. TruTravels really took care of me and helped me when I broke my phone and got an upper respiratory infection. Monk, the guide, is really knowledgeable and loves sharing the fun. You can freely participate with the activities or do something on your own. Monk will help you out. Definitely recommend!!!

This was my first ever tour with TruTravels and I don’t regret a single part. Through the Greek island hopper we got to learn about Greek cultures and history. On top of this participating in so many exhilarating activities. We couldn’t of done the tour without our guide Will of course, he brought all the energy, laughter and support. Not just teaching us lots of fun facts and history he joined in all the activities, making us laugh every step. Through this tour I’ve met so many wonderful friends. If you get Will for any of your tours, your in for the time of your life ! 10/10 recommend

Our tour leader Gema has been a fantastic guide, she has a super bubbly personality which really reflects and rubs off in the group. She really wants you to get the best from this experience and will go above and beyond do sort tickets/experiences for us. The tour has been an amazing way to travel to new destinations and the trains have been a chilled way to travel. The range of activities planned by Trutravels and those we have planned ourself have been really enjoyable, especially the Budapest night cruise and the tobogganing in Lake bled. I’ve also made friends for life and have really enjoyed travelling and spending time with a likeminded group of girls.

I booked the Northern Thailand Adventure through True Travels and I can honestly say that I was blown away by the entire experience. My tour guide Sea was fantastic!! She was caring, knowledgeable, fun, and so organized throughout the entire experience. If you ever book through True Travels anywhere in Thailand, ask for Sea!! You will have the time of your life. Whether it be hiking to waterfalls, chilling by the pool, or partying in Chang Mai, There is something for everyone on this trip!

Couldn’t recommend the Sailing Croatia tour more. Met the most amazing people, was guided by the fabulous Rhi who literally jumped through hoops for us, and made memories that will last a lifetime. Hard to believe that one week on a boat with a group of strangers turned into the dreamiest holiday ever and led me to lifelong friends 🩵

Absolutely amazing!

It's my first time traveling alone and I think choosing TruTravles was the absolute best option for me! I met a load of lovely people who I instantly became friends with. Our tour guide Arthur was funny, helpful, informative and overall absolutely amazing! All the activities, accommodation and travel inside of Thailand is sorted for you in advance. Just bring money for restaurants, markets, nights out and for other odds and ends. Will be going with TruTravles again and 100% recommend this to anyone!

I highly recommend the Mexico Yucatán tour with Tru Travels! The tour covers the best locations in that part of the world, and has a great combination of historical/cultural experiences and boat trips/nights out! My tour guide Luis was utterly fantastic from start to finish. He was always on call to help with anything, whether it be restaurant recommendations, helping source medicine when people fell ill or helping us decide how to spend our days. One highlight of the trip was visiting Chichen Itzá where Luis gave us an in-depth tour, telling us all about the Mayans and the civilisation that created the pyramids, the sports they played, what the inscriptions meant etc. Luis was so knowledgeable and it meant we didn’t have to pay extra for a guided tour! Luis also took us tequila tasting in Merida where he went to great personal lengths to get us the best tequila and mezcal, and again was so knowledgeable which really enhanced the experience. Luis is also a very talented photographer who captured all our best moments! I would recommend Tru Travels as whilst you do spend a little more than other tour companies, you get a lot more activities included. This means that you don’t get a situation where half the group do one thing, and the other half another/nothing because they can’t afford it. Instead, everyone is doing everything together and it helps the group form a greater bond which I loved! The stress of figuring out how to get from A to B is removed when you book on a group tour and you get an automatic group of friends that will stay with you for life (I can attest!) which is also great for solo travellers who are concerned about safety. Best trip I’ve ever done and I will probably do it again one day!

I visited the Philippines with no expectations and it completely blew me away with its kind hearted people, delicious cuisine and spectacular natural beauty. I still dream about Daracotan Island and its warm turquoise water. The Philippines is a slice of heaven that still feels like a hidden gem. From the bustling and chaotic capital called Manila, to the serene white sand beaches and idyllic islands of el nido, coron and Boracay. A group tours overall enjoyment is also impacted by the people you’re travelling with and your tour leader but lucky for me I had the most amazing bunch of people to share experiences and memories with. Our travel ninja Orty is an absolute star and honestly one of (if not the best) tour leader I’ve had on any tour and this is coming with someone who has done a lot of group travel. His infectious, energetic and positive attitude made our experience in the Philippines so much more enjoyable. Orty is ready to answer any questions. He is extremely well organised with making sure everything runs smoothly and is so much fun to be around. We couldn’t have asked for a better tour leader. It felt like I was travelling with my best friend. I love the Philippines and would love to return someday 🫶🏽❤️❤️❤️

An incredible experience with a group of amazing girls and the sweetest pair of guides: Sea and Peanut :) On our 9 days trips they have managed to keep everything in line and match our expectations in the fastest possible way. And the rainy season didn’t make it easier for them! They were the best people to show us the beauty of Thailand! I will always remember this trip and truly recommend it! :) Thanks for making my first visit in Asia so incredible!

This trip has been a once in a lifetime experience! The whole trip itself was really well organised, went smoothly and didn’t have anything wrong about it at all. There is nothing I can say to hate on this experience. Moreover, if you have to speak about what the most memorable part of this experience — it would have to be our tour guide (WHISKEY). He created such a comfortable environment for all of us, and he did not hesitate to help us out when needed. Genuine care. Truly has become my friend.

This was my third Tru Travels tour and they just keep getting better. Having done the Greece and Croatia sailing tours I decided to book the Greek island tour. From start to finish the Greece island tour has been incredible, from amazing history in Athens, to the beautiful beaches of Mykonos, partying and boat trips in Ios and stunning sunsets in Santorini. This tour is a fantastic mix of culture, history, fun and relaxation, I’d recommended it to everyone! The tour was made even better by our fantastic guide Loz (Lauren/Lit Loz). No good tour is complete without an amazing guide and Loz did an incredible job. She kept the vibes high, the mood up and the experiences amazing, her knowledge and personality is unmatched. I’d be honoured to have her as my guide again for any future tours I do!

I booked the slice of Italy trip in 2024. It was amazing. I started to finish. We went through multiple cities and did everything I wanted to do. The tour was well organized, fast-paced, but well planned and very enjoyable. Our tour leader Will was amazing and well prepared. He made the tour very enjoyable. I highly recommend this tour.

What an incredible experience! I toured Croatia with Ryhannon who was so fun and personable! She made our trip comfortable and exciting. Up against some bad weather, she was able to help creatively navigate new options with our last minute changes in itinerary. We had the perfect balance of our own time outside of planned activities to explore, and her food recommendations were great! As was the chef on board - Matteo's cooking was amazing! He was able to last minute accommodate the dietary restrictions I neglected to mention, which was very much appreciated.The whole crew was awesome!
