This South Africa trip truly exceeded every expectation and will stay with me forever. From start to finish, everything was thoughtfully planned, seamless, and filled with unforgettable moments.

Samantha Casolaro, our host, was absolutely amazing! So organized, supportive, and genuinely invested in making sure every single person felt comfortable, included, and taken care of. You could tell how much heart she puts into what she does, and it made such a difference in the overall experience.

Our guides, Big G and TK, were equally incredible. Their knowledge, energy, and passion for South Africa brought every place we visited to life. They made us feel safe, informed, and excited at every step, while also keeping things fun and relaxed. Whether it was long travel days, adventures, or just laughing together, they handled everything with professionalism and warmth.

Beyond the itinerary, what made this trip so special were the connections. Deep conversations, shared laughs, dancing, and memories that feel bigger than just a vacation. It truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I’m so grateful for Samantha who made it possible.

I cannot recommend this trip & host enough. If you’re even considering it, DO IT.

I truly can’t put into words how incredible my trip to South Africa was. Our host, Samantha Casolaro, was the best host I could have ever asked for. She was not only kind, inclusive, and supportive, but also very knowledgeable about how to keep ourselves safe as solo female travelers when we had free time. The trip was organized so well, every activity planned was amazing, and our guides Big G and TK were incredible as well. I can’t wait to take another trip through PlotPackers with Sam in the future!

Overall good trip! I joined the trip to Costa Rica with Lara de Jong and Olman was our tour guide. We did and saw some amazing things. Olman is a very good tour guide who send everyday updates about what time we needed to be ready and what to wear and what to bring. He really made sure everyone was having fun! However, there were some downsides to the trip. First of all, you do not get a lot of information about the trip and what is or is not included. It said that all transportation was included but that was not the case. For instance, we had to pay the bus to get to an included activity. Some activities were promoted in a way which made them look like they were included but they were not. Furthermore, we had a lot of free time and I saw that a lot of people were kind of struggling with that. Besides, we went to some places that could have easily been swapped for other places which might have been more beautiful and more safer. The first and last hostel (they were the same) was very dirty and beds were literally falling apart. Nevertheless, all the other hostels were great!

So overall a good trip if you are on a budget. However, I would suggests some more transparency about the things which are included and which not and also mention the costs in the itinerary beforehand. Also the itinerary was not correct.

The trip to costa rica with olman and lara was amazing, everything was sorted out and if we had questions or anything else we could just ask and olman always knew the sulution. Olman itself is a very kind and funny tour guide, couldn’t Have gotten someone better Than him .
I would really reccomend plot packers for the people wanting to book a trip and especcialy olman and lara ofcourse

This grouptrip was amazing! Our group was guided by Olman y Lara. They were fantastic and made you feel so welcoming. They showed us the most wonderful places and gave us a very safe travel! I highly recommend booking a grouptrip with Olman and Lara ❤️

Olman is the best guide in the world! I really enjoyed the trip only I should not recommend the stops in Jacó and Liberia. Both town are not so special or friendly.

Went on this amazing group trip in Costa Rica. Our gides Lara and Olman were very kind and made sure everything was arranged well. We've explored a lot of beautiful places, went to nice local restaurants and had an amazing time.

The most amazing trip, Maudi and Jose were the best ! Always ready to answer any questions we had and made the trip unforgettable ❤️

An incredible experience!!! Prae was an amazing host, super sweet and funny! I definitely recommend !

I have just left the Plotpackers South Africa trip and it was the most amazing experience! The variety of activities available to us and the amount of places we got to visit in just 10 days was incredible. Our hosts Maudi and Daryl were so helpful and friendly and willing to answer all our questions. This was my first group trip but definitely will not be my last, I highly recommend plotpackers to anyone looking for a group trip.

Group trips are an amazing way to travel as it’s the people who make the time feel so special!
India is ana incredible destination , and it was great to be able to see the highlights within this trip.
Thank you to our guide Arvind for sharing his knowledge and keeping us safe , and to Cody and Ellie for putting our group together ❤️

Massive thank you to Cody, Ellie & Arvind for making this trip incredible!!! We packed so much in to such a short amount of time & made some of the most amazing memories. Our guide Arvind was a legend and went above & beyond! I couldn’t recommend this trip more.

My India group trip with Cody and Ellie was such an unforgettable experience. Our guide Arvind was so amazing. From his knowledge, to his overall personality, he really was such a valuable person on this trip and there is no one i would rather have had guided our group.
It really is the people you meet who make travelling so fulfilling and Cody, Ellie and Arvind (along with the amazing people in my group) are a prime example of this.
It’s one chaotic week, but i wouldn’t have wanted it any other way and i couldn’t recommend it enough!

My trip to India with Plotpackers was absolutely unforgettable. Everything was perfectly organised, and our guide Arvind was incredibly knowledgeable. He went above and beyond to make sure every site was seen and every picture taken. Thank you to Ellie and Cody for bringing so much energy to our week. I can’t recommend Plotpackers (and Arvind!) highly enough!

Just back from an incredible eight-day adventure through India’s Golden Triangle with Plotpackers! 🇮🇳 We were so well looked after by our amazing guide Arvind, our brave driver, and ever-helpful assistant. It was a fast-paced whirlwind of colour, culture, and chaos. I came home and slept for 10 hours straight! But the memories… absolutely unforgettable. Thank you for an experience I’ll treasure forever. ☺️💛

Arvind was an incredible guide. He shared lots of knowledge with us, and spent lots of his personal time chatting and laughing with us. He made sure he listened to us as a group, and accommodated our requests. Our trip was very full on, but unforgettable. Thank you Arvind!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Iceland trip was my first time visiting the country, as well as my first group tour with Plotpackers, and I would definitely consider them for another! Beautiful country, and our host Tonia and tour guide Ru were such a fun and amazing duo.

Tonia was so pleasant, patient and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying their experience. She even stepped in as a personal photographer sometimes to help us get the right shot! Coming from a travel influencer, her input was much appreciated!

Ru was well versed in all things Iceland! I appreciated his fun facts, his humor, and the fact that he even knew how to time the geysers! Most importantly, he was very kind, considerate, and accommodating to our needs and concerns, leaving no one behind or feeling left out.

I came on the trip with an injured ankle and foot, and worried about my ability to walk most of the tours. I honestly thought this would ruin my first experience in Iceland, dreaded missing out on quite a bit in case I needed to sit out on some things. Ru and Tonia both assured me if there was anything they could do to help, something as simple as slowing down the pace of the walks, or modifying where I'd have the best views at the waterfalls so I wouldn't have to walk too far, to just let them know. I appreciated that immensely, and for that reason, I'd not only travel with Plotpackers again, but I'd recommend them to anyone who will listen! Thank you Tonia and Ru!

This was a first group tour I did and I was nervous about it because I didn't know what to expect. The organization of the guides Ru and Tonia made it easier, they answered all my questions before the trip started in a whats app chat that he made. Upon arriving to Iceland things were easier to navigate. Ru was a great guide and was knowledgeable about the history of Iceland. He was very helpful and made this experience great for me. Thanks to Tonia for allowing me to experience this when she posted it on her Instagram page @toniahope. Hope to travel with you guys soon on a next group trip. Thank you plotpackers for a great experience. For the price we paid we really got our money worth considering other tour groups are twice as much.

Our Iceland trip with Plotpackers had some memorable moments, and I’d like to start by thanking Ru, who was truly fantastic throughout friendly, organised, and always willing to help. His effort and positive attitude made a big difference to our experience.

However, there were several areas where the trip fell short of expectations given the cost (around £999). The accommodation was below the standard we anticipated small rooms and limited comfort and the tour organisation was inconsistent. For example, what we were told would be a private tour ended up being shared with other groups, which was disappointing and felt misleading.

The itinerary felt rushed, with only 3–4 days to cover a lot of activities, and at times it felt like more could have been done to ensure better pacing and value for money. Considering Iceland’s expense, I understand costs are high, but transparency about what’s included and the standard of accommodation and tours would help manage expectations.

Overall, Ru deserves recognition for his excellent support and care during the trip, he genuinely tried to make things right. But the company needs to improve communication, trip planning, and value for money to make future experiences live up to their promises

I recently went on the Greenland trip and it was worth every penny!! As a solo traveller, without going on this trip, travelling to Greenland simply wouldn’t have been possible or affordable. Don’t be put off by the price as many bucket list activities and sights got ticked off on this trip. Cora was an amazing guide, very knowledgable as he grew up in the area and his mother even made us some traditional Greenlandic cake! We had one minor issue on the trip, but it was swiftly sorted by our plotpackers contact/representative so cannot fault them. This was my third trip with the company, and I’m sure I’ll be back for more in 2026
