We never want to cancel a trip, but sometimes things happen.

As the world opens up, we're excited for you to get out there and see it. But we also recognise the Coronavirus (COVID-19) is still a risk and some things are out of both our control and yours.

We want your future travels to always be safe and, in the unfortunate event that your trip needs to be cancelled, we are committed to supporting you the best we can.   

Cancelled trips 

If you were booked on a trip that we had to cancel due to Force Majeure (e.g. due to the COVID-19 pandemic), we have automatically applied your credit of monies paid to Intrepid, as per our Booking Conditions at the time you booked your trip.*

* Please note different conditions apply for Polar, Adventure Cruises and select Tailor-Made trips. Please see our Flexible Bookings for further details. Credit amounts exclude additional flights or insurance as they have their own booking conditions.

Trips departing from May 2022 onwards 

These trips are currently scheduled to depart as planned. We are closely monitoring the situation in all our destinations, and will notify you at least one month before your scheduled departure date if your trip is cancelled or changed. If you booked with a travel agent, they will notify you of any changes.

If you want to cancel your booking, please see our Booking Conditions or our COVID Protection (under Flexible Bookings) for the options available to you.

If you have a credit with us for a cancelled trip, here's how to re-book a future adventure for whenever it suits you. Use your credit for the same trip or put it towards any of our other adventures — it's your choice!
