Your Plotpackers experiences, in your words.

Ciara Murphy – June 2024

Amazing trip, so well organised. Met the most amazing people and had so much fun. Could not have asked for a better tour guide, Sicilia went above and beyond to accommodate us, she was so attentive to any issues we had. She was also very passionate and knowledgeable about every aspect of our trip and activities. I would definitely recommend a trip with plotpackers.

Megan Holly – April 2024

My trip to Everest Base Camp with Plotpackers has been one of the best things I have ever done. The trip was so well organised and I felt supported by the company at all times. I felt consistently safe and the communication prior and during the trip was great. Louise and the rest of the Plotpackers team that were present on the trip were all extremely lovely people. I cannot wait for my next Plotpackers trip and highly recommend to anyone, especially solo travellers or people who want to solo travel but don’t know where to start. Joining a trip (at an amazing price) not only sets you up for solo travel but you also get the opportunity to meet other like-minded people. You won’t regret booking your next trip with Plotpackers <3

Mihir Khedkar – February 2024

Literally the best trip ever. Lexi Laube was such a great host, & Ru Florence was the best leader. Both were so caring and helpful. The trip was amazing – so easy having plotpackers arrange the accommodations, transport, & some of the outings. Also, bringing together total strangers isn’t the easiest thing I’m sure, but Lexi and plotpackers did an amazing job and handled everything so well. Would highly recommend.
