InsideAsia Tours Omdömen 

What a great trip for a family of 15 people with an age range from 10 to 80. We covered three locations in Thailand and every activity from cooking to Muay Thai. Great Job!

My biggest fear prior to this trip was being in a situation where I couldn’t communicate- the bilingual guides were invaluable and certainly enhanced the experience - furthermore coming to understand the unique lived experience of each Vietnamese guide provided an insight into local life

Great company that listens to clients requests and interests and planned us a lovely tailor made 3 weeks in Malaysia. Jess is the girl to talk to for your own trip.

InsideAsia made the booking process very easy and were happy to incorporate our requests for upgraded hotel accommodation.
The information booklets we received prior to departure were super useful. We really liked the restaurant recommendations.
Our whole trip went seamlessly with cars and guides turning up punctually. All the excursions InsideAsia booked us on were really good and the Mekong Delta one especially seemed very authentic. We enjoyed our cooking course in Hoi An and our street food tour in Hanoi.
Keely our travel consultant even emailed us while we were away to check everything was going well.
I would definitely use this company again.

the comunication is really professional and the client portal is fantastic. no problems with the transfers and drivers and guides

Really great trip to South Korea. Well planned by consultant Rhian, who had detailed first-hand knowledge and was extremely helpful and professional. The guides were particularly good. Used this company over 10 years ago for a fantastic trip to Japan and the high standards have not changed.

Can't say enough about the trip Inside Asia helped us put together. The people we interacted with were personable, responsive, professional, and very knowledgeable about the area and how to enjoy a visit. The arrangements they made for us in Vietnam and Cambodia were just excellent in every regard. The people they used to provide services and the venues they arranged made our trip very enjoyable.

helpful ideas .all arrangements worked . Detailed hard copy itinerary which is useful.

Very helpful and knowledgeable staff who listened to what we wanted and produced a detailed itinerary that provided the information we needed on a day to day basis. Good value for money.

Inside Asia arranged our recent trip to South Korea. The selected hotels were in great locations and good quality, the tour guides were really friendly and informative, and the vehicles were first class. We loved Seoul and Busan. The Seoul City Tour, Evening BBQ and DMZ Tour were excellent as was the Busan City Tour. We weren’t keen on the Hanokstay Village in Jeonju. If you have kids and want to dress them up and parade round then you’d enjoy it. We would have preferred a different City or an extra day in Busan. Rhian who booked the trip for us was very professional, knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. If we are travelling in Asia again we would definitely book with InsideAsia. Thank you for a very memorable holiday.

This is our 2nd trip with InsideAsia - first Japan and this trip South Korea. The consultants have so much knowledge and experience it gives you confidence and you trust their judgement. They listen to your interests and requirements so you get the most out of your trip. Would definitely recommend.

Seamless organisation. Every train taxi and guide on time and easy to find. Hotels all ideally located for touring the location. Mobile data packs and local travel cards waiting for us at the first hotel. The attention to detail meant we could just get on with enjoying our holiday. We visited Japan and Korea in September

Provided the holiday I requested, with comprehensive itinerary.
All transfers, excursions experiences and guides were perfect.
Arranging my next holiday with them already.

Excellent communication before, during and after. Really lovely holiday and very accommodating and helpful with organising a holiday with my husband who is in a wheelchair. Thank you we had a really fantastic holiday.

We hired InsideAsia Tours to create a customized tour of Japan (3 weeks) and Korea (10 days) and would hire them to do it again. Tim worked with us to suss out our likes, dislikes, preferences, and budget to develop an itinerary that met our goals in every way. We wanted big cities, small towns and villages, national parks, food tours, theatrical performances, cooking classes, culture, history, hiking, and architecture, including some unstructured, free time! We also wanted a full range of accommodations, from the very high end major chains to small, local places, including some traditional Japanese inns (ryokans). It was our first extended trip to both countries and we wanted a little tase of everything. We got it all!

We began each new city with a full-day local tour guide just for us, so we could get acclimated and to aid our understanding of what would would see or might do during the rest of our stay. The local guides were wonderful and made sure that we got the most out of our day, varying the pace and activities according to our energy level and interests. Amazingly, and unlike anywhere else we have been in the world, there was never any reconfirmation of time, place, etc., by the guides or company. That was totally unnecessary, as the guides were always reliable (and always early). At first, we missed the typical reminder texts that we get in other places, but soon realized there was no need. The guides were experienced, knowledgable, and top notch (and no tipping) - a great way to start any destination.

InsideAsia Tours also arranged our travel throughout each country, which is no mean feat! They included drivers, buses, trains, and metro/subway. The Japanese websites we looked at (early on) for all of those things were not easy to use and the English was not always great (or available), so letting them arrange all of those tickets was the right way to go. To get to some off-the-beaten-track places, we have to take a couple of trains and buses back-to-back in the same day, but everything went without a hitch.

The agency supplied us with pdf guides to every destination which included background on the place, its history, select cultural or other local items of note, plus lists of bars, restaurants, and places to visit (castles, parks, temples, markets, etc.). Reading this voluminous information prior to going was not only enjoyable anticipation, but helped us discuss what we wanted to see with our local guides on Day 1 there, as well as to select things to do with our scheduled 'free time'. There was also a lengthy 'intro to Japan' pdf that answered most questions a traveler might have and explained a lot of info you will need once there. Two examples: the indispensable little portable wifi router we carried with us everywhere and the phenomenal and inexpensive) Japanese luggage forwarding system that we relied on between cities (the train stations have LOTS of stairs - use that luggage forwarding, as the locals do).

We also got a day-by-day itinerary that clearly told us what to expect. Its included things such: as very detailed transportation instructions, an intro to today's local guide (with a photo), and any special activities they had booked for us (theatre tickets, cooking class, and so on).

When we arrived at our first city in each country, InsideAsia had left the wifi router and a complete package containing all transportation tickets (bus and trains) with the hotel desk. During our trip, every arrangement they made simply worked as planned (drivers, guides, buses, trains, classes, plays, activities, etc.). Thanks to their good planning, we made the most of every day and every destination. The experiences that we had were unforgettable and the stress of being in a new country where we did not speak the language quickly evaporated, thanks to the tremendous information supplied, the high level of organization and planning, and the reliable and lovely members of the in-country team. Of course, all of this comes at some cost, but we knew the cost up front, had developed it to meet our needs and budget, and recognized as the trip progressed that we got every bit of what we had paid for. It was very nice to have paid the agency for most all costs in advance of leaving home (other than some meals and souvenirs). That way, the in-country costs were minimal, and we did not have to think about costs.

We would not hesitate to do the same trip again or to engage InsideAsia to create another trip for us one day. It was a flawless experience from conception through to the end!

Three week trip through Japan and Vietnam went off without a hitch. Steph listened to our needs and desires and planned a great experience for us.

Our agent G.E. was extremely personable, understood our wishes and was responsive and accurate with our final booking(s). Our objective: a family of 5 in Seoul for a 10 day adventure. He was very familiar with South Korea travel already, and this helped us curate our itinerary. Also, their local partner was very helpful when I needed some help. Extremely pleased with our custom holiday. From hotel to train tickets to WiFi and detailed logistics in print and portal, G.E. made our trip so easy to navigate, so we could enjoy ourselves. Definitely work with InsideAsia to create your best experiences!

We had amazing time exploring Asia. ,
It was easy booking and no hassle.
Every detail was perfect and made our trip unforgettable.
I can highly recommend .

Our second self-guided trip (mostly on Kyushu) with Inside Japan which was even better than the first! Rachel was an excellent travel consultant who put together a great itinerary for us. She was very inspiring and full of ideas and really dug down into what we would like. We stayed in some beautifully chosen minshuku/ryokan/hotels. She was very happy to iterate around properties and room categories for us and really got it right. Transfers, portable wi-fi (essential!), train and ferry tickets all sorted making travelling around pretty effortless. The recommended luggage-forwarding was superb. Japan staff were extremely helpful a couple of times during our trip. If going self-guided, it is worth asking for a consultant who has visited you chosen areas - we had a little issue before being allocated Rachel.

We enjoyed a well organised tour, visiting nice places and staying in lovely hotels. All the arrangements went perfectly even though we travelled around quite a bit and had a couple of internal flights as well. Care on the ground in country was excellent with very helpful and knowledgeable guides.
