Intrepid’s small-group style of travel means you’ll stay under the radar, and travel, eat and sleep the local way.
You’ll get as close to real life as possible (without actually moving in). You’ll have the knowledge of a local leader, taking you out of the guidebooks and into a world waiting to be discovered.
With trips in over 100 countries, you’re bound to find something that’s just right for you.
Experiences
On an Intrepid trip, expect an array of real-life experiences such as local homestays, cooking classes, trying delicious street food, staying in traditional accommodation, bike rides and orientation walks.
You’ll see all the highlights plus hidden gems. All with the convenience of travelling in a small group of likeminded people and the expertise of a local leader.
Dining
While travelling with Intrepid, you’ll experience a wonderful array of local dishes. Your leader will suggest local restaurants and street foods to try.
Generally not all meals are included in the trip price, which gives you flexibility to decide where, what and with who to eat. Usually the group will eat together so you can taste a variety of dishes and enjoy each other’s company.
Guides
Intrepid realised early on that the best folks to show you the heart of a destination are, funnily enough, the ones who live there.
Those are Intrepid’s leaders: travel experts and friendly locals who know their countries back to front, from every backstreet bar to every hidden gallery. They are pretty special. They’re the big, smiling face of Intrepid.
