About Intrepid Travel

Intrepid was started by two friends from Melbourne, Australia, in 1988 after embarking on a trip through the wilds of Africa in a modified ex-council truck, crammed with friends, supplies, a handful of aviator sunglasses and a case or two of beer. Could this type of travel be something others ....more

Our Story

The year was 1988… While most of the world wasted their time dreaming of hoverboard-mounted lasers, joining wild pyramid schemes and listening to Milli Vanilli, two mates from Melbourne spurned these distractions and instead turned their youthful, entrepreneurial beards toward the thing they loved the most – travel.

Intrepid Travel Reviews

South East Asia Loop

The tour was actually with a touring company called Intrepid. The tour was excellent. Tourhub was not very helpful: they never mentioned intrepid & intrepid app. I missed a lot of information and updates most likely because Tourhub didn’t provide my info to intrepid. When asked the website to obtain e-visas and arrival cards, Tourhub didn’t provide them.

They offer some great deals and group travel itineraries without the flights but will include them if needed by the traveller ; leaving one to choose a more personal holiday stance or exploration & time schedule too. Neat!

What a fabulous, exciting and fun filled tour! The guides went out of their way to ensure you had the best time ever and the other travellers in my groups were brilliant. Some of us have already started WhatsApp groups to keep in touch and hopefully meet up on other Intrepid tours in the future. There was a complete range in ages from 24 to myself at 73 and we all managed to find so many offered excursions to include covering each person's capabilities. I would very highly recommend this tour as I could never have seen so much and arranged such a variation in accommodations and transports on my own. Everyday had it's highlights so it's difficult to pin down the best country, city or experience 😍 Thank you Intrepid for a fun filled 30 days

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 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!
