You + U. = awesome

Our promises to you.

Best price guarantee

We are so confident that U.Trips do more, have more inclusions of higher value, and have less hidden costs than any other trips you might find, that we are prepared to put our money where our mouth is.

If you can find a similar trip that is the same duration and route, but has more paid inclusions (value added inclusions, not the free walks or sightseeing from a free lookout- but real activities and experiences which you want to see and do, have better standards of accommodation, no hidden costs, and more included meals) then hey, we will match the price of that other trip.

Working towards being the first 100% carbon-neutral travel company

We took the steps to become a carbon-neutral global citizen well ahead of all other travel companies. U. offers a 100% climate-neutral travel on all our adventures. We do this in collaboration with certified partners who offset the amount of CO2 that is calculated that a given trip will emit. 

We are the only tour company that does not just write off the carbon from flights but rather we have calculated the impact of your travel in buses, on trains, staying in hostels, and even doing a skydive.

Siri, Stubbekøbing, Denmark
New Zealand 24-day Adventure Tour

I went alone, in a foreign country, as I had always dreamed of travelling to New Zealand, a place mostly only seen in adventure films. All my friends were starting to study and prevented from a long trip, so I thought about just dropping it, as I was afraid to travel all alone.

Luckily, I came across U. which makes it easy to travel even if you don’t know anyone already. Yes, I went alone, but came home with a lot of new acquaintances. We saw everything from mountains to volcanoes and thermally heated lakes. Everything was planned and you got to see everything worth seeing; and New Zealand is even better in person than on film!

Croatia 8-day Island Hopping

I highly recommend that you consider doing an island hopping sailing trip with U Travel in Croatia. Croatia is a beautiful country with a stunning coastline. The sailing trip offered a unique and unforgettable experience of adventure, relaxation, and cultural immersion.

It was a unique and unforgettable experience and you meet new people that will become friends for life.

Thailand 16-day U. Trip

A group tour in Thailand is something every young English person should consider doing. Thailand is a beautiful country with a rich culture and history that offers a unique experience for travellers.

Travelling on a U. tour was definitely more cost-effective than traveling solo. As well as the temples and traditional Thai customers we did adventure activities, such as trekking, white-water rafting, and zip-lining.

You will be traveling with a group of young people who share your interests and sense of adventure, making it a great way to make lasting friendships. It can be a life-changing experience that broadens your horizons and creates memories that will last a lifetime.
