Uluru Adventure , October 2018
Jenny Wichert
This is a great way to see Central Australia. The distances are vast and so travel time is significant but it is all worth it. The Tour Guide was excellent in both organisation and knowledge of the local area (even though not from there).

Taste of Tasmania , October 2018
Zoe Yates
As the name suggests, this is a taste of that Tassie has to offer - its a great introduction to this awesome island with a guide who really loves to share the stories and scenery. Definitely keen to go back for a longer stay!

Rock to Rock, September 2018
Laura Behrens
Had a really great 3day/2night Trip around Uluru! It’s a super active tour, I got to see the important sights and have a real outback experience. Take this chance to get to know more about the area and sacred places. It’s a group tour, so a certain level of team spirit is def. required. I highly recommend this tour to anyone with limited time but great interest in the outback and great energy to get up early in the mornings :) enjoy!

Taste of Tasmania , September 2018
Rebecca Curry
Leith our guide was exemplary - his knowledge, approachability, friendliness, organisation and attitude went above and beyond. I would highly recommend this trip with this guide. Would not have booked the original version if the basix had been made available to me as they were the same trip just different accomodation each day. Intrepid, the company itself, their organisation was sub-par and itinerary sent to me was wrong. The scenery was just spectacular, great hikes, amazing views, such a great experience.

Uluru Adventure , September 2018
RHIANNON CARTER
Loved this trip, the three days went very quick. Excellent itinerary - Uluru is amazing as is the Kings Canyon walk! Loved the permanent tent sites we stayed at. Quiet cozy and very Australian! Recommend reading the trips notes regarding accomodation style and driving distances, that way it's not a surprise! If the truck breaks down or the itinerary doesn't go exactly to the plan on the website, its ok!! You will still have a great time.

Uluru Adventure , September 2018
Annette Philp
If you are short of time and want to see these 3 amazing icons then this is the trip for you. Be prepared for very early starts as there's lots of km's to cover. There can be 24 people on this trip so there's lots of queuing for showers, toilets and food. I went in early Sept and the weather was fabulous.

Red Centre Adventure , September 2018
Mike Bates
This trip was most enjoyable, but it involved a lot of (unavoidable) driving through largely featureless bush. The highlight was definitely the walk around the rim of Kings Canyon.

Uluru Adventure , September 2018
Kate Dolan
This is a good trip if you have a short time to cover the main places of interest. There are several long drives, but the bus was very comfortable. If you have a sleeping bag the Basix accommodation is all you need (all other facilities are the same).

Top End & Arnhem Land Adventure, September 2018
Mike Bates
This was a comprehensive look at the Top End, which I much enjoyed. I believe those passengers who only did the three night tour missed out on some great attractions.

Top End & Arnhem Land Adventure, September 2018
Janice Bates
A trip to the Kimberleys requires fitness but you won't be disappointed. It's full of pleasant surprises and you'll be in awe of the numerous gorges and waterfalls along the Gibb River Road. There are many highlights and the Bungles Bungles tops it all. North End and the Red Centre are also interesting and worth visiting but the Broome-Darwin trip is rather special.

Red Centre Adventure ex Yulara, September 2018
Jill Oshry
Intrepid put together one of the best trip's I have ever taken. We explored a vast array of territory, had tea with the locals, rode camel's and saw shooting stars in the desert, was led through the old medina in Fes, hiked in the Atlas Mountains, relaxed by the beach in Essaouira and got hustled through the bustling city life in Marrakech. It was without a doubt the very BEST of Morocco!!!! I loved every minute of this adventure.

Kimberley Trail Broome to Darwin , August 2018
Mike Bates
A most enjoyable trip - but not for everyone. It requires the right attitude for a physically demanding adventure. But the rewards were some spectacular scenery to enjoy and the thrill of being (almost) alone in some of Australia's most remote bushland.

Broome to Perth Overland, August 2018
Kim Patterson
This is a wonderful opportunity to incorporate exercise with beautiful environments. The scenery is stunning. Come prepared with good hiking shoes; swim in every waterhole; embrace the spirit of this country every chance you get. A good head torch is useful. Pack light but make sure you have layers to add in the evening, a beanie and warm sleeping bag.
