Most hotels, cafes and bars have wi-fi, especially in big cities and towns. In more remote places, or on treks or homestays, wi-fi or mobile data may not be as easily accessible. Your leader will give you a heads-up beforehand so you can call home or send a quick WhatsApp. They can also help you buy a local SIM card if you like to stay connected.

Most of the time, you’ll be staying in simple, well-located accommodation. In some destinations, you'll stay in multishare dormitories with cool hangouts, in others, you'll stay in a twin-share room in a local hotel with ensuite facilities. We use authentic accommodation wherever possible, so you might find yourself staying in a traditional hanok in South Korea or a local guesthouse in India. 

When rooming in a twin-share, we pair up solo travellers with another traveller of the same gender as per the gender marker on each passport. If your gender identity differs from what is indicated on your passport, please get in touch with us so that we can discuss rooming options with you. If you'd like your own space, some of our trips also have the option to pay a fee for your own room.
