Intrepid Travel - London

Alan Perrott

We had a fantastic time on the Botswana Highlights tour recently. We chose Intrepid because it seemed to suit what we wanted - well planned itinerary, small group, comfortable without being overly luxurious (and pricey), and supportive of the local community and environment. We weren't disappointed, and as we met with other like-minded travellers then we all had a great time. We are already planning our next Intrepid tour - maybe Vietnam & Cambodia 🙂

Just came back off an amazing trip to Turkey. No I didn’t stay in an all inclusive resort for a week, I went on a highlights of Turkey tour with Intrepid and saw the real beating heart of Turkey. I went in with no expectations and was amazed by the culture, history and people of Turkey but even more so with Intrepid who put a really thoughtful itinerary together which yes has you going to all the important tourist spots but also includes visiting small local communities and using smaller family run hotels which I for one really enjoyed and appreciated. I have a list of places I want to visit including Kilimanjaro, Jordan, Morocco, Egypt and Costa Rica and am definitely going to be checking out Intrepids trips for these. Thank you Intrepid for a great trip.

I have just come back home after doing Intrepid's 10-day Vietnam Express Northbound tour. What a SUPERB tour. We saw lots and did lots, it was jam-packed full of sights and activities. Our tour leader, Tam, was the best ever. Very knowledgeable, organised and lots of fun too. The other 10 people on the group were all lovely. The places we visited were very interesting. We even visited local homes and ate just like the local people do. I highly recommend Intrepid to anyone considering touring a new country. This was my 5th tour with them and they have consistently been fantastic.

I did the 11 day Armenia & Georgia trip and it was absolutely magical! Our guide Jenya was amazing as was David our driver in Armenia. Intrepid arranges these local cooking class lunches which were some of my favorite things we did. We only had three people in our group so it was really nice. I traveled Solo which they let you share a room with someone else or for a little extra you can have your own room which I did. Yes Armenia is a little rough and not as nice as Georgia but when you got out of Yerevan it was beautiful and the Armenian’s are very warm and Friendly. Can’t wait to take more trips with Intrepid!

If you do not play well with others this is not a trip for you. Intrepid is group travel so if you’re bossy or don’t get along with people please don’t make others suffer, lol

It’s a democracy and usually done by group consensus. Also do not be a cheap tipper double the recommended tip they suggest especially for your trip guide!

And people who are cheap tippers it says a lot about your character. If you can’t afford to tip well you shouldn’t take the trip! Remember an extra five or $10 can make a real difference in these peoples lives especially considering the average salary is $300-$500 a month in Georgia and Armenia. Let that sink in.

I just completed my first Intrepid tour which was 33 days travelling around Central America - I had the time of my life! It was great to have the benefit of a guide (Fluffy was amazing!) and be able to ask questions at any point, but I also liked the freedom that you were permitted throughout. The group tour made boarder crossings seamless and the whole process felt easy - there was never one hiccup. As a solo female traveller, I felt safe throughout, and I cannot recommend Central America enough - the people, the food, the sun and the activities were just amazing 🙂 Can't wait to book my next adventure soon!

I have just completed a 12 day food tour of Vietnam, and had an amazing time. Our tour leader was great, knowledgeable and kind, who helped throughout the trip with recommendations for places on our free days, and spas. All the food we tried was delicious. It is a very fast paced tour, and Bon tried to maximise our experiences for the best.

Just leaving a review to share how much I enjoyed my Central America trip. I thought the guide, Aura was so knowledgeable and organised and clearly a great ambassador for Intrepid. She gave us lots of information on each region, helped us organise anything we needed and dealt with queries from passengers very well and diplomatically. She made the trip run smoothly. She was also keen to explain the Intrepid vision and how the company values making a difference to locals and is a credit to your company. I did Guatemala and beyond and thoroughly enjoyed it - very fast paced, lots to see and do and a great overview of the region. I would definitely recommend ?

I have travelled with Intrepid a number of times now and can't recommend them enough. The trips are always exciting, full of history and immersive in the culture and environment. The office staff are great too and always happy to help with any questions you might have. Everywhere I have gone with the company has been different but the guides and itinerary have always been excellent and full of knowledge and passion for their country. Add in the social responsibility angle the company has and it top quality ethical practice and you can't go wrong
