Sherie "The Thailand on a shoestring trip was the most incredible 16 days of my life. I met all kinds of people, experienced a completely different culture and got to see most parts of Thailand.

- CChaseWritten on October 28, 20164.0 - GoodOur guide was second to none, transportation was suitable and the accommodation was great but be prepared for the whole experience to cost a lot more than quoted. But all in all, it was definitely worth it.Show detailed ratings
- MGMichaelWritten on June 21, 20164.0 - GoodThe trip was superb. I met amazing people from around the world and experienced all facets of Thai culture. Guide was knowledgeable and professional.Show detailed ratings
- DDannielleWritten on June 19, 20164.5 - ExcellentFrom my personal experience, if it’s your first time travelling solo (male or female), I would highly recommend a G-Adventures tour. They give you the chance to experience the country at a deeper level, particularly if your time there is limited. Already having transport and accommodation organised, accompanied with a flexible itinerary, enables you to completely lose yourself in what the country has to offer.
