Itinerary

Green, peaceful and full of charm, Sri Lanka has been a destination on the rise for the past few years, and once you travel here you’ll realise why. Over 12 days you’ll see, taste, explore and immerse yourself into all things Sri Lanka, from the rolling green tea fields surrounding Ella, to herds of wild elephants on safari, to relaxing on the beach front in beautiful Mirissa.

3 countries, 38 days, 1 incredible adventure and countless memories - that’s Epic Asia in a nutshell. Visiting Thailand, Vietnam and Cambodia, this deep dive into one of the world’s most colourful and fascinating continents will have you seeing ancient wonders, tasting the freshest of street food, snoozing under palm trees on idyllic beaches, learning about local life and culture, meeting fascinating people, and having the absolute time of your life.

From endless white beaches to majestic emerald cliffs, the Philippines boasts stunning natural beauty to entice sun seekers, adventure junkies and culture lovers alike! To show off the best of this island nation we’ve created a 13 day adventure that will see you snorkelling pristine waters, exploring untouched islands on a multi-day boat expedition, and much more!

If time spent chilling on pure white sandy beaches, wandering through lush rice paddies and swimming with turtles sounds like your vibe, we think you’re going to fall hard for Bali Intro. The ultimate way to discover one of the world’s most tranquil and beautiful countries in 12 days, expect every-thing from wild dolphin spotting to active volcano hiking as you dive deep into Bali’s rich culture.

Frequently Asked Questions

An INTRO Travel package is any number of our amazing tours bundled together to save you money. Each tour is totally flexible and can be done in any order, on any date, or left open dated. Transport between each tour is booked and paid for separately. A package is different to a combo tour like Epic Asia which runs in succession and includes transport between countries.

There’s never a bad time to travel in South East Asia. Most months of the year you will experience both sunshine and possibly some rain. It’s usually quite hot and humid most of the time, but it can occasionally get cold, especially in the north of Vietnam between November and February, so it’s always best to bring a couple of warm layers with your summer clothing.

When should I arrive for my tour?

It’s best to arrive on the actual start date. This is when most people arrive. There are no activities on the first day but the group gets together in the evening for a welcome dinner at around 7pm. Sometimes people like to arrive a day or two before the trip starts so they can do their own exploring or just have a bit of time to chill before all the fun begins. Our INTRO Travel App has all the important information about arriving into the country, your airport transfer and where to meet when you arrive. Please download it here for iPhone or Google

Where can I update my arrival information for my tour?

Once you have booked your flights please log into the Manage My Booking area of our website and let us know your flight arrival details. If you are arriving early we can still arrange your airport transfer for you (excluding Japan). You can book and pay for any extra nights accommodation in the Manage My Booking area of our website. The cost and availability of extra nights will vary depending on which tour you have booked. 

Which airport do I need to fly into?

You can find information on which airport to fly into and out of in the 'Arrival Info’ and ‘After Your Trip’ sections of our INTRO Travel App, which you can download here for iPhone or GoogleR

Can I book pre-tour accommodation with you?

If you are arriving before the start date you can book extra nights at the tour accommodation. To do this, simply log into the Manage My Booking area of our website, add the extra nights and pay for them.

Can I book post-tour accommodation with you?

How do I organise my airport transfer?

What’s the best way to access my money?

We recommend getting a Wise travel card, which will allow you to pay for things in local currency and avoid getting charged high foreign exchange fees by your bank.

Getting a Wise travel card is easy! You can get a Wise travel card here.

Do I need a visa and can you arrange it for me?

Visa requirements vary depending on the country you are travelling to and your nationality. It’s your responsibility to check the visa and entry requirements for the country/s you will be travelling to. There is some information about visas in our INTRO Travel App, which you can download here for iPhone or Google

IMPORTANT: We cannot apply for your visa for you and strongly recommend that you check on the relevant embassy or consulate website for the country/s you’ll be travelling to well in advance of your departure, as requirements can change and some countries require you to apply for a visa before you travel.

What should I pack for my tour?

Whether you have a backpack or a suitcase the main thing to keep in mind is not to bring too much stuff! We strongly recommend that you bring less than 20 kgs of stuff with you.
If you haven’t got a backpack yet, try and get one that zips open along the side. There will be places on the tour where you can do laundry, so you don’t need to bring 16 pairs of shorts with you.

What if I'm travelling solo?

If you're struggling to convince your friends to join you on an adventure, you're not alone!

Travelling solo on a group tour can be one of the most exciting ways to experience a new destination, and you won't have to wait around for your mates to be ready. You leave yourself open to meeting amazing people, making new friends, and can keep yourself and your onward travel plans flexible.

The majority of our group members are solo travellers, so joining one of our group tours is a great way to meet people and make friends. Before your trip starts we'll put you in touch with the rest of your group so you can start chatting and get to know each other. And after the trip a lot of people continue travelling with the new friends they've made!

What if I'm travelling with a friend/s or partner?

Once you’ve made a booking just let us know who you’re travelling with and we can make a note that you are travelling together, and can put you in the same room.

A big part of the INTRO Travel difference is our after-trip support. Your group leader will spend enough time as needed to ensure you are totally comfortable and confident with where you’re going next. And can help organise and book whatever you need, including any transport, accommodation or trips you may want. We'll also provide 24/7 support and advice after your trip, and will always be there to help when you need it.

Fees are to be paid to us using the payment method prescribed on our Site and in accordance with the payment terms in our invoice.
