Get ready for good views, good friends and good times on over 1000 trips to more than 100 countries with Intrepid. For over 30 years, Intrepid has been taking travellers around the globe – that’s over 30 years of making meaningful connections with new people, places and cultures on their small group adventures. You’ll see the world through the eyes of local leaders and before you know it, you could be feasting on a home-cooked dinner at a family home in Morocco, hiking along lesser-visited trails in Peru or enjoying a homestay experience in the backwaters of Kerala in India. 

Intrepid was founded in 1989 by two friends who believed travel could benefit travellers and the communities they visit. As the world’s largest travel B Corp, our impact is to not only be the best travel company in the world, but the best travel company for the world.
We’re here to give back – and have a great time doing it.

Eat, travel and sleep the local way

All our guides are experts in their destinations. They are passionate about pointing travellers towards hidden secrets most tourists don't get to see and sharing their favourite local foodie spots.

Intrepid Travel believes that getting from A to B should be half the fun of your tour. We often use private transport alternatives, but often include some local transport when it adds to the flavour of the destination.

Accommodation during your Intrepid tour is all about being immersed in the local culture. Whether it's a homestay in a small rural village or a centrally located hotel in the middle of a big city, it will always be an ideal base from which to truly experience the region.

Experience Madagascar

"Intrepid delivers an authentic experience that safely takes you out of your comfort zone, changes your perspective on your place in the world and provides unforgettable memories. There are cheaper and more luxurious travel options, but for a single female 'intrepid' traveller, this is the best fit."

Japan Express

"This intrepid tour is perfect for first time travellers who want guidance in experiencing and exploring three vast, contrasting areas of Japan. With optional activities you can pack in as much or as little as you want and get to socialise as a group over great local food."

Myanmar Experience

"Intrepid trips are so well organised, so thoughtful of the country you are travelling through, and mindful of the people that live there. It has been my experience that the tour leaders that Intrepid employ are absolute gems. Our tour leader for Myanmar was Naing, he showed us his country in such an informative, graceful and reverent way that we could not help but fall in love with this country and its people. Well done Intrepid!"

Iran Adventure

"Iran is a unique and amazing destination and I was glad to have gone with Intrepid. Most itineraries cover the same places, but what makes Intrepid's itinerary unique is the nomad stay and night at the Caravanserai - these were highlights of the trip. The trip also strikes a good balance between guided time and free time - in a country like Iran, where interacting with locals is incredibly rewarding, I was glad to have the opportunity to explore by myself. Recommend Iran 100%!"
