Best experience in India!
I can't even begin to thank Nora enough for such a great trip to India! The amount of planning, scheduling, coordinating, etc. she does is insane. It would have taken me ages to manage this trip on my own. She was also available and super responsive months before the trip! I also really appreciate how much thought she puts into ethical and sustainable travel experiences. Big thanks to Nora, and our local guides (queen Yash and Harsh)! I would recommend Via Adventure to anyone!

10-Day Group Trip in Japan
10-Day Group Trip in JapanWhere do I even begin?I still haven’t fully processed everything.What I can say is that the trip was incredibly well thought out and truly enriching. A big thank-you goes to our group leader Alex. He had a huge impact on the group with his positive energy and the way he kept everyone together. He was always calm and attentive to everyone’s needs.After the tour, I continued traveling on my own for another 11 days, and I have to say — that can be really stressful and overwhelming. It made me appreciate even more how much you get to see in such a short time during the group trip, how many different impressions you gather, and how smoothly everything runs. I never managed to organize things that well on my own. I wasted so much time taking wrong routes, doing research, and figuring things out.I also loved discovering all the hidden gems — places that are far less crowded and touristy. I don’t know if I would have found them on my own, at least not without spending twice as much time :)Thank you for this unforgettable journey and the wonderful memories with amazing people!

My trip to Japan was fantastic
My trip to Japan was fantastic from start to finish. The itinerary was really well thought out, with many beautiful places visited. Every day felt full but never stressful, and I came home with the feeling that I had truly seen and experienced a lot of the country, even if it is never enough haha. The group itself was very nice too: easygoing, friendly people that made the journey even more enjoyable and full of good memories.A special mention goes to our group leader, Alex. He was always calm, kind and incredibly resourceful. Whatever happened, he always found a solution and made sure we felt there was nothing to worry about for the whole trip. Thanks to him, we could just relax, enjoy Japan and feel completely taken care of. I would definitely recommend this trip: both for the itinerary and for the wonderful guidance we received along the way. 🌸🇯🇵

10 days in INCREDIBLE Japan
Where to begin! Spending 10 days with strangers you’ve never met can feel a bit nerve-racking, but I ended up having the most incredible time. The Japan itinerary was packed - we covered so much ground, and I loved exploring the non-touristy hidden gems too.Alex, our group leader, was an outstanding host. He made sure everyone felt included and created such a positive group dynamic.Japan itself is a stunning country with a rich culture and wonderfully welcoming people. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

Amazing trip to the Balkans!
I just went on the Peaks of the Balkans trip with Via Adventures and didn’t want it to end! Everything was extremely well planned, each day was so much fun, and I got to enjoy it with an amazing group of people. Nora and the local guide Emir were extremely welcoming and made sure everyone was taken care of. I highly recommend joining a trip!

Wonderful experience!
The Peaks of the Balkans Sept 2025 trip was my first international group trip and it was definitely a standard-setter. The entire experience from pre-trip planning and communication to the trip itself was phenomenal. Nora knows great local guides that make you feel safe and create a welcoming environment. I will definitely be joining in on another trip in the future!

Great Value
I’ve been on two trips now with Via Adventures and can say that it’s sooo worth it if you’re looking to get an off the beaten path, relatively small group experience in places that most people don’t immediately think of going. I went on the very first Kenya trip in January of 2025 and enjoyed it so much I signed up to do the Peaks of the Balkans with Via Adventures in June of 2025. The itineraries are great if you’re looking for a jam packed adventure maximizing your time in each destination with well earned relaxing time added into the mix. The combination of solid itineraries, great local contacts, affordable pricing and Nora’s expertise and experience come together to create a solid value package that’s hard to pass up. Keep rocking Nora!

Just book it!
Traveling with Via Adventure was such a wonderful experience from start to finish--very genuine and very organized. I have always been hesitant with group travel because of the tendency to shove you from place to place. My partner and I went on the Northern India trip, and it was like a trip with friends. We got to see amazing sights and pretty much never felt rushed. It was also such a load off to have lodging, transportation, and some food taken care of--and all of the places we stayed/used were thoughtfully chosen. It was also cheaper, I think, than what a lot of travel companies charge you. Would totally recommend and hope to do another trip at some point!

An incredible trip!
I went on the Kenya Great Migration trip with Via Adventure and had the most incredible time. Nora could not have planned a better trip. Everything was so well organised, our accommodation was incredible and all travel days ran smoothly. The itinerary was perfect and I would definitely book another tour with Via Adventure.

Fantastic trips
Via adventure is a great company! We spent 10 days around Kenya. The itinerary was perfect, the guides were amazing and the accomodation was so lovely. Everything was way beyond what I expected. Our group was great fun and we had so many laughs. I would 100% travel with them again especially for places that aren't so easy to travel on your own. They really make sure you get to know the country and travel responsibly. The trips are also very well priced for what they include.Thanks for everything and I can't wait for the next trip!

Great Migration, Kenya
I went on the Great Migration Kenya trip and it was nothing short of amazing! Nora did a fantastic job of planning the trip and our local guides, Mike and Sam, were also incredible. From transportation to accommodations, everything was planned so well and flowed seamlessly. I couldn’t be happier with my experience, I’d highly recommend!

Unique Affordable Experiences
I've been on two trips with Via Adventure and I can back up the claim that this company offers trips to beautiful, unique, and less-frequently traveled places. Before I say more, this reason alone is probably why I will join more trips in the future. I want to experience and learn about people and places in parts of the world beyond the most famous and most popular travel spots.I’ve done a lot of group travel & Via Adventures is already operating so well for a new company. The itineraries are packed full of activities & they’re sent out well in advance with a recommended packing list to help you prepare. They take care of so much behind the scenes that you don’t have to do much prep yourself besides packing up and going (ideal for anyone who has a jam-packed life)! The group sizes are small, making it easy to get to know everyone. They offer such good prices when you run a comparison against similar trips. I can’t speak for future groups, but the two groups of people I met were filled with such fun, hilarious, caring, and generous people. Everyone looked out for each other. We left with plenty of good jokes and memories. 10/10 recommend booking the trip with Via!

Great for experienced travelers who want to visit hard-to-travel-solo destinations!
If you’ve ever wanted to explore an off the beaten path destination, or one that’s known to be particularly logistically challenging or difficult to travel on your own, Via Adventure is a great option! As a very experienced traveler myself (100+ countries, many solo) I often don’t feel the need to travel in groups but I felt the value of being in a group of like minded peers, with a local guide, when I chose to travel to India and experience the local festivities of Holi with Via Adventure. Not having to worry about planning itinerary or logistics of navigating different cities was really nice, for once! Would def recommend if you want to focus on having a great trip without needing to think about planning or safety precautions on your own.
