Michael "Tru travels as a company wasn’t great with communicating things before the tour began but Kuntapol quite honestly made up for any negatives. I’ve been on 3 tours and he is the best of the best. He was always organized and kept us on schedule, while at the same time kept us entertained and even acted as if he was one of us, hanging out with us whenever he could.

The trip was full of new experiences. We got to see new things everyday and it was never boring! Our Tru Travel group super lovely and fun which made the whole trip totally unforgettable. My favorite activity and memory of the tour was the jungle trekking because it was amazing to see how the locals live everyday. Also I enjoyed the elephant sanctuary with great people. All the activities and transportation was incredible!

I loved my tour, I made some really amazing friends and it was packed full of fun activities. It was challenging at times but really rewarding and I learnt so much. Two weeks went so fast I almost wish it was longer! MY favorite activity and memories were the elephants because it was so special and unique. I loved feeding them and playing with them in the mud> The jungle trek was also amazing because of staying in such basic conditions and with the hilltribe - it was really interesting and everyone stayed up late talking around the campfire!! Plus the fun nights out with the group. Justin was a really good group leader, I think he really got into the swing of things. The best part is his enthusiasm and how he makes things so fun, he is a really lovely guy and really made the tour. There some tough times but overall, I had such a good time and I think it is largely down to him and the other group members!

I have gained a life long friend from Kuntapol. The Northern part of this tour was the best experience of my life due to Kuntapol's efforts as our group leader. Each day he went above and beyond what was required of him. I was very upset to learn that we would be getting a new group for our islands tour which did not live up to the expectations set by Kuntapol. I do not think TruTravels is the best company to book with: their pre-departure communication was terrible (at no fault to the guides). Also it was not clear that our 21 day tour actually consisted of 2 separate tours. Like I said we were disappointed to receive a new group and guides for the islands portion after forming great relationships on the northern tour. Since we had to travel from the north, we also missed some activities on the first day of the beaches tour. The beaches tour involved too much travel, we never stayed at one location for longer than 24 hours and the accommodations did not seem worth the money we paid. Despite the subpar islands tour (which probably would have been excellent if Kuntapol was our guide), I will book again with TruTravels just to hang out with my friend Kuntapol.

Sarayuth was an amazing tour guide, we could not have asked for a better tour guide. He truly cared about each group members' well being and made it his top priority to ensure the best experience possible. His great performance made up for the several grievances we experienced from Tru Travels. While Tru Travels was subpar, I would book a tour again with this company just so I could have another trip with Sarayuth.

Ali was my tour guide for the Thailand trip I took in May/June. He did this tour along side our tour leader, apol (Gun). Tru travels as a company wasn’t as communicative as we would have hoped but these two tour guides were honestly the best I’ve ever had. They did everything in their power to keep the tour running smoothly and made sure we kept good time. A personal experience I had was when I cut my knee after jumping from a waterfall, and Ali immediately ran to my attention with a first aid kit, and kept assisting me throughout the tour with reapplying products to clean the wound so it wouldn’t become infected. apol also helped with this. They are a really good team and I am so honored that I was able to experience Thailand with them as my guides. I won’t go through Tru travels again because of the company. I will be going through Tru travels again because of the amazing tour guides that they gave us. Thank you both, Ali and Gun! We will see you guys again!!

Really good tour + great tour leaders thanks. My favorite activities were Elephants and Zip lining. Tour itself + Justin and Pompom were great though. would have been good to know there were only 2 people on the tour in advance + given opportunity to join bigger tour.

It was without a doubt one of the best holidays I have ever had. My favourite memory of the trip was Khao Sok national park. Everything was perfect - The tour leaders (Minnie and May) did everything they could to accommodate everyones needs.

I had a lot of fun on the Trutravels tour. Very packed and a busy itinerary but enough chill out time too. My favourite activity on this tour was the Grand Canyon in Chiang Mai. The leaders Minnie and May definitely made this trip and helped with any problems I had. Thank you x x
