That’s right, we’ve packed our rucksacks and moved in with Intrepid Travel.
Travelling for good has always been at the core of what we do, which is why we’ve decided to make roomies with Intrepid Travel. Together we’ve launched an exciting new range of trips for socially conscious 18 to 29-year-old travellers. It’s the same Geckos energy you know and love, but operated and amplified around the world under the Intrepid Travel name.
