Travel Map

Day 1 Arrival Day

AIRPORT PICK UP When you think of Cancun, you might think spring break students running wild. Well, there is that, but if that’s not your scene then just avoid that time of year, easy peasy! Regardless of what floats your boat, Cancun is a party paradise set against a...

Day 2 Holbox Island

ISLA HOLBOX After a long flight and a night on the town getting to know your group a bit better, you probably could do with a bit of R&R, and we couldn’t think of anywhere better than the Island of Holbox for that. A real piece of paradise, seriously beautiful bea...

Day 3 3 Island Boat Trip

THREE ISLAND BOAT TRIP Enjoy a lie-in before we jump onto a boat to explore 3 UNREAL locations, just you wait. First up is Bird Island, which is home to many beautiful birds that you will only find here! Next up is ‘’Eye Of The Water’’ cenote, a large natural pool wit...

Day 4 Ancient Ruins of Merida

MAYAN SITE OF CHICHEN ITZA Today is the day! We are off to one of the seven wonders of the world, The Mayan Site of Chichen Itza, a must-see when in Mexico (duh!). We will leave Holbox early to set off to the wondrous monument! Once we arrive, we’ll have a guided tour...

Day 5 3 Cenotes Tour & Tequila Tasting

THREE CENOTE TOUR & TEQUILA TASTING Today we venture slightly outside of Merida, and we will be cycling between three stunning cenotes, with a spot of lunch along the way of course! After we’ve spent our day chilling and swimming in the Cenotes, we’ll head back to...

Day 6 Bacalar

TRAVEL TO BACALAR Rise and shine! This morning we wave goodbye to Merida and set off to Bacalar, arriving in the early afternoon. This afternoon we’ll head to Bacalar Lagoon (which has the clearest blue water might we add!). Spend your time here either just chilling a...

Day 7 7 Colour Lagoon

7 COLOUR LAGOON We know what your thinking, we must really love lagoons because YES we are off to another one, but this time it’s the 7 colour lagoon! And it is totally worth it. Why it is 7 colours or how is it 7 colours you ask? Well, we’re no scientist’s, but we do...

Day 8 Tulum Beach

TRAVEL TO TULUM Did someone say trendy beachside town? Hell yeah, we did! We are off to Tulum today, where we can spend the afternoon exploring the town and seeing what this funky beachside town has to offer or simply relax on the white sandy beaches. Vamos a La Playa!! Once we’ve had our beach fix, it’s time to head into own for tonight’s dinner and drinks with the rest of the TruFam, cheeeers!

Day 9 Tulum Ancient Ruins

TULUM ANCIENT RUINS In the morning, we head to Tulum archaeological site in the Riviera Maya to explore the ancient Mayan ruins. Sounds like a mesmerising sight to see anyway right? Well, now imagine the brightest of blue ocean and white sandy beach as a backdrop, it’...

IT’S A TRU-STORY!

From the humble beginnings, to where we are now, it‘s been an epic journey. We aim to keep our Vision and Manifesto at the heart of our business – simply put, we are passionate about what we do!

BACK IN 2012…

In the beginning…

TruTravels was founded in 2012 by Joe Fallon and Mark Pope after they decided that life was not about being stuck in the rat race and working boring jobs, just to pay for getting to & from work! They had “lived the dream” before, travelling and working in Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Fiji and Europe for several years and felt that there had to be more to life then getting the tube into a gloomy office every day.

After a meeting in a pub in London they decided to change their realities and start doing what they wanted to do instead of what society said they should do. The plan was to create a lifestyle centred around showing people the time of their lives in paradise. Providing life changing experiences for backpackers by backpackers. TruTravels tours were designed to take all of the hassle out of travelling to new places but at the same time give spontanious group travel experiences and prepare TruTravellers for their own solo journeys into the unknown.

The Tru-Crew today IN 2015…

Where we are now…

Three years later TruTravels has shown hundreds of young adults the time of their lives in Thailand and has grown from running one awesome tour in Thailand to running six in three countries (with more on the way).

We have also opened an office and travel shop on our island home of Koh Phangan and started our own blog and youtube channel (subscribe here).

Our beloved TruTravellers are helping us to turn our own dreams into a reality (check out our reviews online if you want to see some of the feedback for yourself)!

OUR VISION AND MANIFESTO

“To give you, our customer, the experience of a lifetime whilst educating you about your destination, advising you on the safest ways to travel and enabling you to make the most of your time away.

We do this by offering support before, during and after the tour to make you feel as comfortable as possible when travelling in an unfamiliar country and giving a unique travel experience which feels like travelling with friends rather than on a conventional tour.

All of the team are a family who love travel and to share our experiences with others, we enjoy what we do and this rubs off on the groups who also become part of the family and hopefully share with us some of the best times of their lives.”
