Fewer clichés, more adventures
Because even the most well-trodden destinations look different from a local's perspective, we think getting off the beaten path is less about where you go and more about who you'll meet along the way.
Local communities are at the heart of every Intrepid trip; small groups are led by expert local guides, meals are eaten in family-run restaurants and many itineraries incorporate village homestays. So while you may not be venturing where no travellers have gone before (and let's be honest, very few are), you'll be able to get an authentic glimpse of a destination through the eyes of the people who live there. Whether it's heart-thumpingly active trips, soul (and belly) nourishing tours or unique lodging that you won't find reviewed on Tripadvisor, we're here to celebrate all the joys of travel... on path and off.
