Hi there!
We’re Emma and Úna, a couple from Ireland. Back in August 2022, we both left our full-time jobs in Dublin to pursue a few months of travel. Soon we figured out we could make our money stretch a lot further than we initially thought.
We created Backpackhers to share our own knowledge and experiences of travel. Get started on planning our adventure today!
What our past guests say
"The attention to detail, and making everyone feel included was like nothing I've seen before. I've truly come away with friends for life, and with people I would never have crossed paths with."
Travel Bites
Interested in travel but don't know where to start?
We understand that not everyone is comfortable just booking a flight, packing a bag and jetting off. Also, it can be much more fun when there’s others to share the memories with.
We started our first trips to the Camino de Santiago in 2024. This summer, we’re back again! Our next trip starts June 14th 2025 and runs along the Portuguese route for 1 week. We’ve got everything you need to know about this trip if you click below.
we'd love to hear from you
