Thailand May 2025 - Amazing Trip made by Amazing People
WOW and WOW. I had the absolute best time on my recent trip with Craic On Travels to Thailand. Isabelle and Colin were so kind and helpful while we were abroad. They were also so helpful before the trip even began, setting up a WhatsApp group for us all to ask questions and co ordinate our travel plans with other people in the group.
This was the first time I travelled long haul by myself and I am so glad I chose Craic On to bring me to Thailand. We also had an absolutely outstanding guide called Armeen. He was an absolute gem. He was always looking out for us and our safety as was Isabelle and Colin.
I would 100% tell anyone thinking of travelling to do it with Craic On.
I met so many people I would have never crossed paths with had it not been for them.
All of the accommodations we stayed in were clean and well located.
While it is a group holiday we had a lot of time to ourselves as well which I loved, I was able to do my own exploration as well as seeing the main sites.
The most amazing experience
The most amazing experience! Colin and Isabelle are so hands on and personal you can see the work and love they put into there company from a mile away! I will 100% be booking on again and I've already been recommending to everyone!
Thailand 2024
I cannot recommend Craic on Travels enough!! Colin and Isabelle looked after everyone so well and everything ran so smoothly. From transfers, to hotels, to activities that were planned everything was organised so well with absolutely no hick ups!! It was genuinely a trip of a lifetime that I wouldn't have experienced without Colin and Isabelle and their passion for wanting to show people the world! I would 100% recommend to anyone. Everyone that was there was there for the same reason - all wanted to travel , experience different places and cultures and meet new like minded people. I met some amazing people and can’t wait for my next craic on travels tour!!
Thailand April 2025- trip of a lifetime
I cannot reccomend Craic on Travels enough to anyone who has the bug to travel but doesn’t know where to begin. Every single thing was organised down to a fine art. all we had to do was arrive in Thailand and have the time of our lives. These guys took all the stress out of planning and organising the trip and that allowed us to really relax and bond as a group from day one. There aren’t enough words to describe how professional, dedicated and kind Colin and Isabelle are as people. I have made friends for life thanks to Craic on Travels and already can’t wait to book on to my next group trip!

I could not recommend Colin and Isabelle enough. I went on their Thailand trip and the whole thing was unbelievable. From start to finish everything was taken care of. It was my first group trip and I was a little apprehensive, however once I met everyone I knew it was going to be an unforgettable trip.

Must-have experience
Everything was super well planned, with a good balance of busy and rest days; plus Isabelle and Colin are both genuinely lovely people which helps getting over the fear of meeting strangers in a different country. Best thing I’ve ever decided to do. 🫶
Unforgettable India Experience
I recently went on the Holi trip to India with Craic on Travels and had such an amazing time! The whole experience was really well-organized, and you could tell a lot of care had gone into planning it.
Isabelle and Colin were fantastic hosts—friendly, helpful, and really knowledgeable about the places we visited. They made everyone feel comfortable and created a really welcoming atmosphere, which made it easy to relax and enjoy everything.
Some of the highlights for me were celebrating Holi, visiting the Taj Mahal, and spending time in the Thar Desert—but honestly, there were loads of memorable moments throughout. It was also great to travel with a group of like-minded people; we shared a lot of laughs and made some great memories together.
Overall, I felt really well looked after and had a great mix of adventure, culture, and downtime. I’d definitely recommend Craic on Travels if you’re looking for a trip that’s both fun and thoughtfully put together.
Unique and heartfelt adventure
I recently had the pleasure of going to India - The Holi experience with Craic on Travels, and I can confidently say it was an unforgettable trip! From start to finish, everything exceeded expectations. Isabelle and Colin were incredibly accommodating, and their warmth and knowledge of the country truly shone through in every aspect of the trip. They created such a welcoming and safe environment for all of us, which made the experience even more memorable. Not only did I get to experience the magic of Holi, Thar desert ,The Taj Mahal (plus loads more!!) I also had the chance to travel with like-minded people, sharing laughs and making lasting memories along the way. I felt well taken care of the entire time, and their passion for what they do is evident. If you’re looking for a unique, well-organized, and heartfelt adventure, I highly recommend Craic on Travels!
India was a once in a lifetime…
India was a once in a lifetime experience and I am so glad I chose to go with Craic On Travels!
They were professional, kind, organised and most importantly fun.
Seem less from start to finish and always felt safe no matter how crazy India can be!
Holi was an example of this - I had a wonderful day with no problems due to all the percussions they took so their guests would be completely safe.
I would recommend craic on to everyone and will forever be singing their praises!
Outstanding 💕
As someone who wanted to travel, didn’t want to go for months on end and also wanted it to be as easy as possible - I took a chance and booked a trip to India with Craic on Travels. I am so so grateful that I did.
Colin and Isabelle are both one of a kind, each bringing something special with them. They’re kind, reliable, approachable and two of the most genuine people you could meet. The atmosphere and energy they create is reassuring, fun and makes you feel like you’re traveling with friends.
Everything was laid out to us before we left, we always knew where we stood and any changes were communicated quickly to everyone. You can tell that they put such thought, effort and love into everything they had planned. I always felt like they wanted me to have the best experience I could.
India itself was absolutely amazing, but I without a doubt would not have had the amazing experience I did without Craic on Travels. I cannot recommend them enough, it was seamless though and through. The hard work they put in is so obvious and I’m very excited to see what they will have in the future. Will 100% book again! ☺️✨

Colin and Isabelle are welcoming, friendly and their love snd passion for travel and India really shines through. Their India trip was absolutely incredible and they made sure we got to see and experience as much as we could within the 2 weeks.
India is a place I wasn’t sure I would want to travel solo to so this opportunity was perfect. I felt safe throughout the trip as everything was so well planned and explained to us. Colin and Isabelle are incredibly knowledgeable about India and they were always there to answer any questions and reassure us. We got to see so much culture and had amazing activities planned for us such as attending Holi festival, an overnight trip to the desert and visiting the Taj Mahal. They created such a welcoming and positive atmosphere and the 2 weeks was filled with laughter.

India 🇮🇳 including Holy Festival
Just back from a trip to India with craic on travels. It will take me weeks to process the experience but travelling with them made it so easy.. India is intense but craic on travels made it for us.. itinerary was packed with enough breaks in between to chill and spend time with the group or alone There organisational skills, there availability 24 hours to everyone, there calmness to everything and there professional approach would definitely 💯 see us going back to travel with them. India was amazing somewhat overwhelming at times but having the group we had and the experienced leaders Isobel and Colin made the trip more memorable.. this itinerary included holi festival which for me personally made it stand out… thank you Colin and Isobel 🙏
Trip of a lifetime
Craic on Travels really does bring the craic on travels. Colin & Isabelle outdid themselves with their India trip. I will be forever grateful to them for such a great itinerary. We went for Holi festival. Their kind, friendly & open, honest approach helped keep the whole group safe while having the time of our lives. Adequate breaks and stops were facilitated for the group on long travel days. We covered so much ground in such a short time, I’m still shook we saw and did so much! Nothing was an issue and no question was too large or too small. I would recommend taking a trip with Craic on Travels to explore new countries & make new friends for life! Thank you both :)
