What others say about us

"We would all like to say a big thank you for making the trip so successful. We learned so much from you. It made the trip not only fun and educational, but also an experience. The Thai staff created a real family atmosphere for us. It was as if we were part of a village, learning and playing together. These guys took care of the family and helped our kids experience so much; they made a positive difference in our lives. We loved it!"

Michael Lambert /Hong Kong, China

"Your tailored-made trip for us helped our family connect more deeply to our home, planet Earth. With you as our teacher we made new connections as well as new discoveries. You created a rich experience for us; it was the Discovery Channel, 24/7. Not just a virtual tour." ... continue

Kay L.
Lower Primary, Hong Kong International School

"I really am missing the trip already. I really felt as if we all were connected like a family. It's just such a shame that this trip was so short. I have learnt so much from you and Thai Brothers, and as a whole, this whole trip has left me inspired by something (something I still don't know what it is right now... I'm still just saying "wow"! in my head all the time!) "
Ewa United Nations International School, Hanoi, Vietnam

"Absolutely brilliant - fun, stimulating, challenging, thought-provoking AND educational - inadequately describes Reefs to Rainforests. Voted 'best ever Week Without Walls' by student participants every year"
Anne Hayden Gilbert International School Bangkok teacher/chaperone on 7 Reefs to Rainforest trips
