I recently joined a trip with UniLife UK, and it was an amazing experience. Our Trip Leaders, Ema and Gimhan, were incredibly creative in organising optional schedules outside of the main walking tour. These optional activities were really helpful, especially for those of us who weren’t sure where to go or needed ideas for places to visit.
I really enjoyed how the group leaders Amelie and Maia way of making us feel like we were on the right track; and made us feel safe by their friendly and reliable energy. They knew the best spots, and were very willing to add fun to something that can easily be a stressful activity. 10/10 travelling experience!
Pick up and organisation was great! The hostel was amazing! We also had a city tour which I really enjoyed. Our Trip Leaders were very friendly and welcoming.
