Flash Pack Reviews 1,534

I chose to go to Bali and the Gili Islands for my first Flash Pack adventure. I only have great things to say about my trip. Our fearless pack leader, Yogi, guided each day with grace and charm. We were invited to learn about the Balinesse culture through temple visits, meeting a local family, a cooking class and guided meditation.For the more adventurous spirit, you have opportunities to hike a volcano, snorkel, and surf. Over the 12 day trip, Yogi continually touched base with all of us - bringing suggestions for free time, checking our well-being and celebrating birthdays. I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to explore Bali and the Gili Islands.

I will remember this adventure for a lifetime! 14 strangers Island hopping over New Years with the best pack leader, Rupert. The Philippines was beautiful and each location was amazing. Rupert and his entire team were incredible.

Maybe I was lucky but my group was amazing. We were all on a similar stage of life where we don’t wanna seat around waiting for friends/family to go on vacation. We shared stories and experience and were all really good people which I hope to be in touch for long time to come!
Vu, our pack leader did an incredible job with giving us all the info, dodging some too political question like a pro but without holding information. I think I have a better understanding of the people because we had him. Which wouldn’t have been the same experience if I was to travel independently.
Already looking forward to my next trip!!!

Had a great time in Bali! Our pack leader, Mr. Yogi, certainly played a big part. The itinerary was great with a good mix of activities but occasional down time. Even with that, still were able to do some fun optional activities. Also, as it was over NYE/NYD there was a fun additional dinner and party night for the ball drop moment. And while it wasn’t specifically planned that way, we got to do the water purification on Jan 1, so it was a very meaningful way to start a new year with new intentions. I traveled on my own for a few days after the group trip, and Mr. Yogi provided some help and suggestions and even helped to arrange a baggage drop off for me. He certainly went above and beyond!!

I have just returned from an incredible Flashpack Philippines tour and am not sure where to start with summing this trip up in to a review…

This was my first Flashpack tour. I had high expectations from the reviews, social media and website, yet my expectations have been far surpassed!

The itinerary was well thought out with a good mix of activity and leisure time, and optional additional activities to explore should you wish. From relaxed island hopping, to kayaking & paddle boarding, to quad biking, and so many other activities, there really was so much variety.

All of the team who support the running of activities, from local guides, to the incredible chefs, to the camp team on Guinto Island, were friendly, accommodating, passionate, knowledgable and brought the right levels of energy. Their love for their beautiful country as well as ensuring everything the group needed could be accommodated for made everything so much ‘more’.

Rupert is an outstanding pack leader. He went above and beyond to make sure everyone in the group (14, so a pretty large group of strangers) felt included. Everyone was well looked after, including accommodating start requirements, retrieving lost items, and ensuring we all had smooth and safe journeys. He was consistently calm, organised, adaptable and so much fun! It was wonderful to hear his stories, his knowledge and the love he has for his country, those he encounters/ works with and the job he does.

I would highly recommend Flashpack, and specific this tour to anyone looking to visit the Philippines.

Just back from an amazing adventure in Bali & the Gili Islands tour operated by Flashpack. Every detail of the trip was thoughtfully put together resulting in an itinerary that was packed with a variety of activities that showed all the beautiful things Bali has to offer! Our tour guide Yogi was phenomenal - he was organized, took care of all the details, provided great recommendations for down time, and is just an overall great person that made the trip extremely enjoyable! I've taken 7 trips with Flashpack, and this is now at the top of my list as my favorite!

Just back from the Vietnam & Cambodia trip, and it was EPIC. The diversity of activities is brilliant, it really shows the countries as they truly are, a great mix of must-sees tourist attractions as well as off the beaten path hidden gems. There is a high focus on food throughout the trip (rightly so), it is so delicious.
The group was fantastic, a great mix from all over the world, and we got on really well, everyone was open minded to all the new experiencing both countries had on offer.
And both of the tour guides have been awesome, big shout out to Hai and Nak, who made this trip one of the best ever.
I can highly recommend this trip, and the only way to better it would be to take the individual trips (exotic Cambodia and Secret Vietnam), basically spending more time in each country as there is soo much to see and do.

Our pack leader, Ismail, was a wonderful combination of professional, knowledgeable, and adventurous. He led us on several hikes and tours throughout Morocco. The accommodations were charming. The food was delicious. The views were awe-inspiring. The 'Best of Morocco' was a lovely way to experience such a vast magical place. If you travel to Morocco, make sure Ismail leads you!

I had the absolute best time on a recent Tanzania trip. Our pack leader Lenny was incredible, as well as our safari guide Zachia. 10/10 experience!

Two weeks in Vietnam and Cambodia with our tour leaders Hai (Vietnam) and Nak (Cambodia) was absolutely amazing because of them! They made the trip what it was with their planning, knowledge, laughter, care and enthusiasm. A huge thank you to them both for making this trip such a special experience for us all.

I had the most magical time in Vietnam and Cambodia. Both guides were amazing and went above and beyond during our entire trip. The activities were a wonderful mix of everything and some wonderful surprises also awaited! It was a very active trip with little down time which is exactly what I was looking for. I managed to tack on a few days after the tour ended for extra R and R. My first flash pack and definitely not my last!

My trip to Vietnam and Cambodia over the holidays was magical. Thank you so much to our guides Hai & Nak for sharing your beautiful countries with us. They both are very knowledgeable, kind, and attentive. We saw and did such a wide range of things. Everything was well organized and ran smooth. I have memories I will cherish and never forget. So grateful. I would recommend this trip to friends and family. Thank you!

I cannot put into words how incredible the ‘escapism in the Philippines’ trip I’ve just got back from (with Rupert as our tour guide). I have only done Bali with Flashpack before and it was a tough one to beat but wow…. The variety of islands / hotels / excursions / sea life / food and experiences on each part of the trip will stay with me forever. Rupert is one incredible tour guide and if you get him, you’re in very safe hands. The care, dedication, support, helpfulness and stories are outstanding and he literally works around the clock to ensure everyone is ok. Too many special memories to mention but my top moments were seeing dolphins in the wild, swimming with turtles and camping under the stars on Ginto Island over NYE. The group were all amazing and vibed well with each other and it helped that Rupert was so fun and laid back.

I had an amazing time on the Flashpack Philippines tour - it completely exceeded my expectations! I’ve travelled with Flashpack before and the bar was high, this trip blew it out of the water! The itinerary was really well put together and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. And, I’ve made memories and friendships that will last a lifetime.

Rupert is an exceptional pack leader. He was organised, calm, great fun and went above and beyond to make sure everyone felt included and looked after. There’s plenty of activity and downtime in the trip, and an amazing array of flexible options too so everyone can do what they love and make it their own - we kayaked in a lagoon and took a boat to see dolphins and swim with turtles.

Every local guide we met was welcoming and passionate, and that energy really added to the experience. The team are next level, and a joy to explore these beautiful islands with. The food was epic too, our chefs were extraordinary! I made some brilliant memories and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this trip or Flashpack to anyone.

I absolutely loved the Philippines tour! Our guide Rupert was exceptional and went above and beyond to make the trip a memorable and fun experience for everyone involved. The trip was very well organised, included many incredible experiences and ran smoothly thanks to our guide Rupert and his team. We were looked after incredibly well at each location, I particularly appreciate the attention to care with my food allergies, it was by far the best support I have experienced in any tour. On top of this, Rupert and his team also arranged some amazing additonal optional activities some of which were my highlights of the trip such as the small lagoon. Each member of the team that we meet along the way reflected Rupert's enthusiasm and love for his country and consistently provided a high quality travel experience. I would definitely recommend this trip!

My trip to the Philippines with Flashpack was a 10/10! Our pack leader was incredible - he made everything effortless and you could tell he truly cares about the people he works with and the people that he works with and the travelers who join the tour. Shout out to Rupert, you made the trip so special! All the accommodations were amazing, the food was incredible (shout out to the chefs on Ginto island), and the group was so lovely. So glad I chose Flashpack and can’t wait to do it again!

I just returned from the Bali & Gili Islands adventure with Flash Pack, and it was hands-down one of the best travel experiences of my life. The trip was phenomenal, perfectly balanced between adventure, culture, and relaxation… but what truly elevated the experience was our Pack Leader, Yogi. He was warm, organized, and incredibly knowledgeable, and his passion for being a pack leader showed in everything he did.

From the moment we touched down in Denpasar, everything was seamlessly organized: transfers, boutique accommodations, local experiences, food, and activities were all thoughtfully planned so we could just relax and enjoy the moment without any stress. From temples and local experiences to beach time and island adventures, every detail ran smoothly. Yogi created an amazing group dynamic and made everyone feel welcome and very taken care of.

This was my third FP trip and the trip exceeded my expectations. I wouldn’t hesitate to book another Flash Pack adventure (especially if Yogi is leading it again!). 10/10! Highly recommend! 🌊🌴✨

My Flashpack trip to the Philippines was absolutely incredible. Pack leader Rupert exceeded all expectations in his ability to flawlessly coordinate and keep our group organized, handle unforeseen challenges (weather, illness), and lead our group with kindness, patience, and humor.
Every included and optional activity made this a truly once in a lifetime trip (not to mention the incredible food!). Every local person we met was welcoming, helpful, and kind. I would not hesitate to recommend this to anyone I know and I would go back in heartbeat.

Mexico in Color with Patricia was amazing! Her love and knowledge for her country was beautiful! Everyone in our group got along well and we had a great time spending New Year’s together!

FlashPack is the ideal way to travel. Every possible activity I could have hoped to experience in Bali and the Gili islands was included and it exceeded expectations. Most incredible is the experience is complimented by the local pack leader and guide, Yogi. So not only do you get endless opportunities to explore and experience Bali, but Yogi’s personal touch adds something you wouldn’t get traveling on your own. Our group did yoga, white water rafting, a cooking class, surfing, snorkeling, a sunrise volcano hike, time at the beach, spa, pool, dancing, karaoke and more - all effortlessly executed and organized by Yogi. Beyond the stated itinerary, I especially appreciated Yogi’s intention and sincerity in teaching our group about the culture and religion of Bali as well as the practice of meditation and mindfulness. This trip, and Mr. Yogi, are fantastic; highly recommend for anyone looking to experience the adventure, beauty and spiritual sides of Bali.
