Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and some friends. On that trip, they came up with the idea that perhaps others may be interested in this style of travel too. Just like that, Intrepid was born. Intrepid has come a long way since then, now giving over 100,000 travelers a year the opportunity to experience small group travel across all 7 continents. They use local transport, sleep in local accommodation from Cambodian stilt houses to Moroccan riads, and employ 100% local leaders. With three different travel styles including basix, original and comfort, themes ranging from cycling trips to family holidays, and itineraries crafted with the perfect balance of must-see sights and free time, Intrepid caters to every type of traveller no matter their age, budget or travel style. The company has grown but their mission remains the same: to change the way people see the world through sustainable, experience-rich travel

    I have travelled with Intrepid 3 times but will not use them again. They made a major error in reimbursing credit card charges and refuse to fix it. Will not take a chance that they make another error regarding a trip, just in case the refuse to fix... Show more

    What a great trip! So close to the animals, seeing them do what they do, and feeling a new connection to our planet was a great take-away. Competent aware guide with laid back attitude. Accommodations good and it was nice to have the ferry tickets... Show more

    Galapagos Island is wonderful, however the tour guide was terrible so I would likely recommend my friends to do it themselves and not with a tour.
