Red Centre Adventure (Original), June 2018
Viviana Zanetti
Great break in Central Australia, fascinating place, excellent organisation and charming places. A well balanced trip between nature and Aboriginal culture. No internet available: it is you, the Australian red centre, history and nature! Amazing!

Top End & Arnhem Land Adventure, June 2018
Karen Harmon
This was our first Intrepid trip and we would highly recommend - the small groups, the itinary and organisation were great. We had a lot of fun with challenging treks follwed by swimming in beautiful gorges and natural infinity pools. Our guide and driver was always pointing out extra things along the way (fauna and flora) and would stop to show us.

Cape Leveque and the Kimberley Coast (Basix), May 2018
Michael Newton
Long hours in a bus, scenery was average, saw little wetlands and no wildlife. We saw none of what the Kakadu uses as its advertising. The brochure needs to be revised.

Outback Camping Adventure, May 2018
Amelia Bligh
Excellent trip with a very knowledgeable guide and a great bunch of people. Something to mention is that the age range of the group was quite big - from 22 - 70 yr olds on ours. Really interesting cultural learning experience. AMAZING meals.

If you have dietary needs don’t take for granted that they will be provided for. Sometimes it creates some amusement that a vegetarian travels on some trips.

A wonderful way to see the sites of central Australia. Great food, accommodation, guides and sites!! The fourrth day is well worth doing as many people miss the beauty of the western MacDonnell Range!!

Red Centre Adventure (Original), May 2018
Marvena van Kann
This is the best itinerary available but be prepared for a lot of driving and strict limits to activity times particularly at Uluru, Kata Tjuta and Kings Canyon. If you choose to take a permanent tent you can still sleep in a swag under the stars if you want to. Be prepared for 6 am starts every day and the days are full, so there is just enough time for dinner and a hot shower in the evening. Remember to look at the stars - the best place in Australia to view them - you are looking at the centre of our galaxy from the Red centre - that is special. The drinking water is good so you don't need bottled water but take the capacity to carry 3 litres at Kings Canyon.

Adelaide to Alice Springs Overland, April 2018
Helen Foote
This trip was an enjoyable way to experience Australia and visits places we might never have ventured to otherwise. We would recommend the adventure to anyone who wants to see the center without the problems associated with traveling on your own. It was exciting and enlightening.

Wild Kimberley Overland (Original) , April 2018
Lisa Bytheway
This is a must see tour. Every day was different, and enjoyable with wow moments when standing in such stunning places or swimming in great natural pools and waterfalls. This tour provide you with at least one swimming opportunity each day, except when in the bungle Bungles there are not places to swim.

Top End & Arnhem Land Adventure, May 2018
Christina Elliott
Our trip to the Top End was fantastic, with an awesome tour guide, great cultural education and visitation of original rock art sites. Lots of waterfalls and swimming in beaut waterholes, nice bushwalking and rock climbing for awesome views. Fantastic tour leader. This trip was a great experience, and would love to do it again. Highly recommended.

Perth to Broome Overland, April 2018

An excellent trip with beautiful landscapes, nice activities and good times. The mixture of camping and hostel, activities at the ocean and in the nationalparks, hiking and driving is pretty good!

Perth to Broome Overland, April 2018
Trevor Gambell
Intrepid trips mix travellers with locals through activities such as camping, hiking, and other types of accommodation. Travellers cross a wide range of ages and nationalities, and because we are all asked to share in food preparation and cleanup, there is much intermixing and shared fun.

Top End & Arnhem Land Adventure, April 2018
Hannah Mackay
Excellent knowledgeable, culturally aware guide. Consider time of year as roads close, heat bans hikes and of course crocs affect swimming. Permanent tents (mostly with power) but means not as remote and no sleeping under stars. Re-confirm any must-sees or special needs. Enjoy stunning country and amazing experiences!

4WD Darwin to Broome Overland , April 2018
James Simpson
The ten day Darwin to Broome trip takes you to a lot of remote places, crossing rivers you'd need a 4WD to get to if you didn't do this tour. There's some great canyons to swim in with spectacular waterfalls. Do the optional Lake Argyle cruise, it's better than Yellow River in Kakadu. What you swim in is pretty much what you'll wear each day on the bus most of the time. Bring a waterproof camera.
