I was a little hesitant to use this platform as I was not familiar with it, but I ended up booking one of the best tours in Bali through this platform. Easy to use and trustworthy.

Response from Seek Sophie

Thanks so much for taking a chance on us, Abby! We highly appreciate your trust and business :)

It was easy to book the 3-hour Sapa Trekking Tour. Fast response and flexible timing that suits my family itinerary and pace. An experiential trekking with a social cause.

Response from Seek Sophie

Thanks for the review, Alicia! Glad we can be of assistance when booking your Sapa trip. Hope you enjoyed it!

Had a really fun experience via Seek Sophie! Rachel was friendly and funny. Workshop aside, she also shared various interesting facts about makgeolli, drinking and Korea's culture. It was super educational and we all laughed a lot throughout the class. The birthday girl was SO happy. Thank you again!

Response from Seek Sophie

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Bei Wen. We are so happy to hear you were able to make your friends birthday special with one of our experiences!

It was a very informative session about sake and also being able to try the different sake and would come a long way for me as I will be able to make a more informed selection when I buy sake in future.

Response from Seek Sophie

Los tours que presentan son muy interesantes y diferentes a lo que se encuentra en cada sitio. Tiende a ser especial de alguna manera y la gente alrededor del tour son muy simpáticos. La diferencia entre los tours promedios es clara.

Response from Seek Sophie

Gracias, Karen! So happy to hear you enjoyed it :)

Great guided tour in the foothills of Mt Rinjani Lombok . Fantastic trip from a great company employing local women . Seeksophie is a brilliant website for finding local trips

Response from Seek Sophie

Thanks so much for the kind words, Hannah! Glad to hear you had a good time in Rinjani foothills with one of our partners. They are one of our favourite partners to support :)

Kadek was great! Patient and kind. He encouraged us to sit back and relax while taking us to our stopping points. He encouraged us to take our time at each site and we did not feel rushed. He even made sure to get us to our last destination right in time so we could see the waterfall. He was wonderful!

Response from Seek Sophie

Thank you, Jessica, for the review. We are thrilled to hear you had a good experience with our partner Kadek.

After a 40-minute trip by longtail boat, we arrived at the beautiful Praiwan Raft House, located in a dead-end bay near the wildlife sanctuary. We stayed in a basic hut room with a wonderful bed, the bathroom and toilet were shared. Upon arrival, we were served a warm lunch, and afterwards, we took the boat for a whole 2 minutes toward the sanctuary.Once there, we hiked for about 30 minutes to reach the bamboo raft that took us to the Coral Cave. Each of us received a flashlight, and we explored the dead-end cave. We saw beautiful stalactites and stalagmites, as well as a few bats. After the visit, we made our way back the same route over water and land to our raft house.Before dinner, we had about 2 hours of free time. We took the kayak and were lucky enough to encounter a family of five elephants… all to ourselves. A FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE!!!After dinner, everyone lingered at the small restaurant and we played some games. The night started off a bit rough as a storm suddenly passed over our bay. It was all hands on deck for the staff, but the guests hardly noticed anything apart from the choppy water.At 6:30 in the morning, we went on a one-hour boat safari to spot wildlife. Unfortunately, we didn’t see much apart from two hornbills, a monitor lizard, and a few birds of prey. After that, we had breakfast, and it was slowly time to pack up and head back to the pier.

Response from Seek Sophie

Hi Anke, thanks so much for leaving us a review. We are very happy to hear you had a good time in Khao Sok with one of our partners. Bummer you didn't get to see elephants. You will need to come back another time!

The trip we booked was quite intrepid, which was a little daunting when travelling with your child. Seek Sophie provided great information about what to expect, which was very accurate. Great communication at every step - they gave us peace of mind that we were booking a safe and reputable tour, and ours was one of the best travel experiences we've had!

Response from Seek Sophie

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. So glad you went through your intrepid trip and had a great experience. We love the stories of when our customer step out of their comfort zone!

I had never heard of Seek Sophie and generally avoid unknown websites offering activities although I was captured by the genuine nature and somewhat "off the beaten track" of the activities they were offering their website. Booking was easy and great communication, and most importantly the vulnerable locals they were supporting spoke highly of Seek Sophie. Best of luck and I hope to support them again in the future.

Response from Seek Sophie

Thank you for taking a chance on us, Brendon! We really appreciate it! We hope to see you on another trip!

Every trip I have booked through Seek Sophie has been amazing. Never felt rushed by any of the guides and the communication from both Seek Sophie and the guiding companies has been spot on. I highly recommend using this website to book your trips

Response from Seek Sophie

Thank so much for the kind words, Russell! And being a repeat customer! We really appreciate it :)

Was so happy to discover Seek Sophie. Genuine reccomendations. Super efficient yet friendly service and follow through. I wanted a good Komodo Day tour and there were so many on offer. Sophie reccomended Alexandria Cruises and they exceeded my expectations. I will use Seek Sophie wherever I can and reccomend to my friends .Thank you for such great and genuine customer service .

Response from Seek Sophie

Hi Ron, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a kind review. It made our day! 💛

We’re so happy you discovered us too, and even happier that you had such a great experience in Komodo. Alexandria Cruises are one of our favourites. They are one of the rare hosts that pick up trash around Komodo so your trip made a real positive impact. It means a lot to hear they exceeded your expectations!

Thank you for trusting us and for sharing us with your friends. We can’t wait to help you plan your next adventure!

I’ve been trying to book a private chalet for a 3D2N Kinabatangan River Safari multiple times but sadly for more than 4 times I’ve not been lucky enough as other people were always booking seconds before me, so I never got any booking I’ve tried to pay for. Rina was amazing as she assisted me with my booking attempts and helped me secure a place even though it was high season. She was extremely patient and helpful, her help allowed us to book the dream spot and she made us really happy. Thank you Rina!

Response from Seek Sophie

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're so glad to hear that Rina was able to help you finally secure your dream spot. It means the world to us that her support made a difference. We know how tricky it can be during high season, so we're extra happy this worked out!

We'll be sure to pass on your thanks to Rina — she'll be thrilled to know she made your day (and trip!). Wishing you an amazing adventure on the Kinabatangan River 💛

I’ve just completed a 8 days 7 nights, Komodo Community Trip and it was so amazing. Kudos to Seek Sophie for the detailed planning of the itinerary which was so well executed. The local guides especially Puteri and Bayou and staff (Jun), were fabulous and super caring in ensuring our comfort and safety. Sincere thanks to them and to their colleagues/staff who assisted us on respective adventures. Not forgetting the wonderful photographers, Shawne and Alvin, and all other participants of the trip. We had so much fun together, it was as if we knew each other before the trip. This is one experience that I will not forget. 🙏

Response from Seek Sophie

Hi Cindy,

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave the review. It has meant so much to us to read your thoughtful words and know that you enjoyed the trip. Your presence on our inaugural community trip has made it very special for both us and the rest of the travellers. Thank you so much for your kindness to our team and your great attitude as we sent you on the never ending hikes 😅. We will do even better in the future and hope to see you on one of our subsequent trips!

Best Wishes,
Lina

My wife and I have used Seek Sophie several times over the years (Malaysia and Indonesia)- it has been a great tool to quickly find unique experiences - all of which have been vetted by likeminded travelers - instead of wading through countless blogs. Because of Seek Sophie, we've been able to participate in experiences we would have never found otherwise, and trust that we're booking through local vendors and not through bigger, wholesale tours. Seek Sophie also makes booking super easy, and provides clear guidance on what to expect for each experience. We wholeheartedly recommend using Seek Sophie and look forward to booking more experiences through them in the future!

Response from Seek Sophie

Hi Chris,

Thanks so much for your lovely review - it's made our day! We started Seek Sophie because we were super tied of wading through endless blogs too, so it’s amazing to hear that we’ve made finding and booking these special experiences easier for you.

Your support means the world to us. We hope to help you and your wife find more hidden gems in the future!

As a travel agent I have to deal with a lot of suppliers but I can honestly say that dealing with Rina at seek Sophie was an absolute pleasure compared to many. She was quick to respond & understood what I needed & I had a great outcome. Cant thank you enough Rina!!

Response from Seek Sophie

Hi Claudette

Thank you so much for the lovely review. As travellers ourselves, we know how important it is to have quick and reliable support, and we’re so glad Rina could help. I’ll be sure to pass on your lovely feedback to her—it’ll make her day! If there's anything else we can help with, please do feel free to reach out :) Thanks again!!

Went to a humane elephant sanctuary called Chang Chill with seek sophie. It was such a good experience. We saw the elephants in the forest, left food for them in the feeding tubes and watched them bathe. They had cahouts looking afte them who knew them well. Worthwhile experience. Would highly recommend

Response from Seek Sophie

Hi Julia

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re so happy to hear that you loved your experience at Chang Chill. When we visited Chiang Mai ourselves, we found it so tough to find a truly humane elephant sanctuary—so many places call themselves ethical but still allow touching and bathing. That’s why we were so excited when we found Chang Chill! The way they let the elephants just be elephants, with their mahouts caring for them from a respectful distance, is so special. So glad you got to experience it too! :)
