We booked four different excursions with seek Sophie over our honeymoon in Indonesia and could not have had better experiences on each one. Our guides were all extremely knowledgeable, local and kind. Each trip did a great job of showing us what we were looking for while providing expert advice to avoid crowds and get the most out of each trip. While sometimes a bit more expensive than other guide sites, I would say seek Sophie excursions are worth it and more for the time and attention they put in to organizing the best trips. Everything was easy, spectacular and authentic.

Honestly super happy with my Seek Sophie experience here in Singapore, I will continue to book on Seek Sophie when I am travelling around SEA.

Booked my pottery via Seek Sophie and class/experience was amazing! Cannot say for other class but giving 5 stars for this experience

Thanks, Emma! So glad the pottery session was a good one and that booking it through us was easy. We love experiences where you get to slow down and actually make something with a local host.
Booking with Seek Sophie was so easy and smooth!
We booked a 3D2N stay in Tanjung Puting (Indonesion Borneo), where we stayed on a Klotok (boat) for 2 nights. It was a magical experience.
Beforehand, we could message the tour company through the Seek Sophie website whenever we needed to, and they were very responsive.
We also loved that they put women and conservation at the front and centre of their ethos! Overall, I highly recommend!

Thanks, Bharadwaj! We’re so glad the boat trip was a great one and that the team looked after you well. Being on the water with a good local crew is hard to beat!
After leaving it a little late to book our accommodation, I stumbled across Seek Sophie and I’m so glad we did. The booking process was easy, and they were very easy to contact on WhatsApp. The reminders before the trip always help to put your mind at ease, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. Would highly recommend using Seek Sophie

We went on a 3-day, 2-night boat trip through the jungles of Borneo. The experience was nothing short of magical.
The food and overall service on the boat were outstanding. Everyone was kind, helpful, and welcoming.
Our guide, Adin, had extensive knowledge about everything from plants and the history of orangutan rehabilitation in Borneo to the names and life stories of many of the orangutans we saw.
We would highly recommend that everyone travels to Borneo to have this experience and be sure to ask for the boat Selvar and the guide Adin.
The only thing we regret is not booking a longer trip.

Thank you, Emil! We’re so happy the orangutan experience lived up to the trip you’d hoped for. Seeing wildlife in its natural habitat, with a great local team guiding the way, is exactly the kind of experience we love helping travellers find.
I’ve been on two half-day tours starting in Hoi An and promoted by Seek Sophie, and both were well-organized, off the beaten track and highly enjoyable. I look forward to booking Seek Sophie packages in other cities/countries.

This was my first trip using SeekSophie. I booked three experiences through them. One experience I for sure would not have found if not through SeekSophie, and it was my favorite one...visiting a sea turtle conservation in Bali. I appreciate using SeekSophie to help out smaller/family owned businesses. But also, if you want honesty, some places are just really growing in tourism in SE Asia. The promise of skipping the tourist traps didn't actually seem to be my experience, but I also travelled in late June and early July--high and then peak season.

Hi Jessica, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review and for being a repeat customer with us. We really appreciate that you have taken the chance on us.
We completely understand that it may seems like some places you visited were quite crowded and not exactly "off the tourist trail". At times, especially during the summer months of June-August, it's very difficult to avoid crowds in popular destinations in Indonesia. However, we do try to give our customers options to visit less crowded places in addition to the bucket list destinations, such as visiting a rare turtle sanctuary in Java in addition to visiting Mt Ijen and Mt Bromo or extend their Komodo stay an additional day beyond the more typical 3D2N option. The other thing we prioritise in these more popular destinations is working with really good guides that bring back the income to their communities.
Once again, we really appreciate your business and feedback. We will continue to do our best to find alternatives as it really matters to us personally that our customers have the best experience.
I like the apps there are some really good trust worthy experiences!

Thanks, Genesis! We’re so glad you had a great experience with us. Really appreciate you taking the time to leave this — and we hope we get to help with another adventure soon.
Really simple to use. Very responsive to my enquiries and flexible in changing the vouchers to what we wanted . Some great experiences on their platform. Looking forward to trying Seek Sophie's experiences out side of Singapore.

Thank you, Oliver! We’re really glad we could help turn a disrupted Indonesia plan into something you could still enjoy in Vietnam. Travel plans can change fast, so it means a lot that our team could make the voucher switch feel easy.
Amazing experience at River Cruise- All thanks to SeekSophie
SeekSophie helped me get the last set of opening on the Kinabatangan river cruise. I have been trying to get the same since last one year but it was always completely filled. Thanks to seek sophie that not only i was able to get different options to choose, it also helped me get the right set of reviews and get the best experience. The entire process from booking to payments to pickup and drop was very smooth

Thanks so much, Snehil! We’re really glad you found a Kinabatangan trip that felt both trustworthy and aligned with the kind of wildlife tourism you wanted to support. Hope we get to help with a few more adventures soon!
