      Great accommodations! Love our tour guides and Merica being local was amazing. Would take another trip with her as our Tour guide any day!! She rocks. The lodging was excellent, charming villa and casa. The transportation for our day trips was stellar. Drivers and vans were great. Felt like royalty.

      This Thailand trip was more of an adventure than a vacation! I'm not sure how they were able to pack so many exciting activities and locations into 2 weeks while also offering tons of free time. I met interesting people, made some new friends, and fell in love with the Thai people and culture! Currently shopping for my next Globe Drifters trip!

      I loved this trip! The itinerary was really exciting as there were so many different environments I enjoyed living in. From beaches to jungles and then from llakes to the beautiful city of Chang Mai-I could not of asked for a more diverse experience. Jodie, our Guide, was an absolute delight to be with. She was funny, full of fun but when it mattered, she was absolutely on the ball in organising us so that we stayed safe in the house. I can honestly say that this is one of the best holidays I have been on. Thank you so much for arranging this.

      This trip was absolutely wonderful! The group we had all got along really well, and it totally added to the fun of the experience! We did and saw a lot of really cool stuff that I likely wouldn’t have been able to manage on my own. Most of the guides were also really helpful and friendly, and it was nice to have what I described as a “Vacation Mommy” handle everything for us. The accommodations were gorgeous (the hotels in Cappadocia and Sirince were especially impressive!). Also, I don't know if you noticed but, YOU GO ON A HOT AIR BALLOON RIDE! That bucket list experience alone makes this trip a great one. Some days felt a bit overpacked (I could have done without the whirling dervish performance, personally), and some of the travel occasionally felt overwhelming — but the chemistry of the group helped lighten that kind of stuff up. The trip, for the most part, felt pretty well organized but I would have liked a tiny more free time on some days. Overall, this is a fantastic trip and I would highly recommend it to others (in fact, I already have!) I will definitely be booking with Globe Drifters in the future!

We appreciate your feedback and are making adjustments to next year's trip regarding guides and free time. Hope to see you again on another adventure! :)

      My friends and I had the most incredible time with Globe Drifters in Thailand. There is not one thing I would have changed; the experiences were sensational, accommodation ideally located and very good; the people of Thailand could not have been nicer or more courteous. Jodie, our tour guide was funny, zany, lovely but really on it, when required and it is down to her in many ways that this trip was so memorable and fantastic. I would wax lyrical about everything but you really should go on this trip with no preconceptions to enjoy all the delights the tour will offer you. Your hearts will be touched, you will laugh and have great adventures. Thailand is a joy; it is clean and beautiful wherever you go. The best holiday I have had to date. Well done Globe Drifters. By the way, the mix of people in the group were all lovely too and the memories of this vacation will stay in my heart always.
