My wife and me took a trip to Finland this December with The Backpacker Co. We wanted a different experience from our standard family vacations. There is a certain kind of "organized" and "ready" we wanted along with the thrill of not knowing. The Backpacker Co provided that. Alithea was our first and only required point of contact. I can be a bit high maintenance, but with all my queries and requests her classic answer would be "I'll take care of it". We were sent all the required information, bookings, confirmations, recommendations etc. way ahead of time to make well informed decisions for our trip.
We met an electric mix of people and had a great experience! The trip was well planned and executed though we had added in few more activities which we got rushed. I'm gonna go ahead and mention Alithea again.... she continued her classic line "I'll take care of it", throughout the trip, while suggesting, making, changing, changing yet again anything, even restaurant reservations, activities...
Her being with us during the trip helped us manage last minute changes in activities due to bad weather, not waste our time, come together as a group and more! She even surprised us all with a hot Kanda Bhajiya one cold night!!! I would even give kudos to Mallika who greatly assisted us in Helsinki.
Now this is what all holidays should be like! Thanks to The Backpacker Co, we couldn't have brought in 2020 in a more remarkable way! Here to many more! Cheers!!!
