Can you believe we’re already halfway through 2025?! Time flies when you're island hopping in Thailand , chasing waterfalls in Costa Rica , and soaking up the sun with awesome new mates from all over the world.

Here at INTRO Travel, the first half of the year has been nothing short of legendary . Whether you joined us on one of our classic trips, took the plunge into one of our new destinations, or are still daydreaming about booking your next adventure—we’ve got loads to recap (and celebrate!).

New Trips, New Vibes

We kicked off the year strong with brand-new trip launches that you guys have been loving :

  • Thai Island Explorer : Think turquoise waters, hidden beaches, island parties, and the ultimate chill vibes . Our newest Thailand trip dives deeper into the islands—offering a more laid-back, sun-soaked adventure for those who want a little more beach and a little less rush.
  • Central America : After an epic launch of THREE new countries and a bunch of awesome new trips last year, we began running our first groups on the ground earlier this year.
  • Something new is on its way (coming soon...) : You heard it here first. Something NEW is brewing in the INTRO HQ. Keep your eyes peeled for more updates very soon.

Moments We’ll Never Forget

It’s hard to pick just a few highlights, but here are some that made our hearts happy (and filled our camera rolls):

  • Full moon parties in Thailand – Its a no-brainer, but we NEVER get sick of the iconic full moon parties in Thailand. Paint, lights, and dancing until sunrise with our INTRO mates.
  • Skydiving in Australia – One of our incredible add-on activities on our Oz East Coast trips. And yes, we had more than a few legends take the leap so far this year!
  • Intro-versaries on tour – Birthdays, anniversaries, honeymoons and even a few engagements —we’ve loved being part of your stories and the reason some absolutely incredible relationships were formed! (checkout the epic proposal pic from our Japan Adventure tour below!)
  • Acatenango hikes in Central America - One of our newest trip launches, and one of our BIGGEST adventures yet. Plenty of INTRO Travellers did the iconic overnight hike up a volcano to witness insane views of fiery lava.
  • Epic group bonds – Watching strangers become lifelong mates is what it’s all about. We’ve already seen several 2025 groups plan reunions across the globe.

Small Change Wins

Big things come from #smallchanges , and this year, we’ve been proud to make SO many meaningful ones so far:

  • 100% carbon‑neutral tours – Since late 2023, we've partnered with Path Net Zero to accurately measure tour emissions and used Veritree to offset them via tree planting. We're proud to say every single INTRO tour in 2025 has been carbon neutral.
  • Refillable water stations – We have refill points at nearly all overnight stops and activities, drastically reducing single‑use plastic.
  • Beach clean‑ups along the way – From Bali to Cambodia, our trips regularly include community-driven clean-up events that tackle coastal waste and help preserve marine habitats.
  • Supporting local communities & cultural exchange – Whether it’s visiting Buddhist monk schools in Sri Lanka, planting trees with Zulu students, weaving baskets in Bali with Gede’s family, or staying and learning on sustainable farms in Thailand - every activity directly benefits the people who call these places home!

Behind the Scenes

You see the sunsets, the squad shots, the waterfalls... but what about the chaos behind the curtain?

This year’s been full of behind-the-scenes gold:

  • Our teams worked hard behind the scenes to launch our epic new Thai Island Explorer , and rumour has it they've already started making moves for the next launch... any guesses where?
  • We celebrated all sorts of celebrations and events this year with the team, such as St Paddy's Day, Holi Festival in India, regular meetups with our epic UK team, and lots of fun beach days with the aus/asia teams.

Massive shoutout to the INTRO legends behind the scenes making your trips run smoothly.
