Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and some friends. On that trip, they came up with the idea that perhaps others may be interested in this style of travel too. Just like that, Intrepid was born. Intrepid has come a long way since then, now giving over 100,000 travelers a year the opportunity to experience small group travel across all 7 continents. They use local transport, sleep in local accommodation from Cambodian stilt houses to Moroccan riads, and employ 100% local leaders. With three different travel styles including basix, original and comfort, themes ranging from cycling trips to family holidays, and itineraries crafted with the perfect balance of must-see sights and free time, Intrepid caters to every type of traveller no matter their age, budget or travel style. The company has grown but their mission remains the same: to change the way people see the world through sustainable, experience-rich travel

    It was an amazing trip. Our guide Stefan made it a wonderful adventure. Beautiful picturesque landscapes! It was great to sit back and just enjoy it while Stefan drove and organized our days according to weather so we got the best experience.

    Great value for once in a lifetime of experiences in other worldly environments. You’d pay much more for the same trip even with the same tour operator.

    I've previously travelled with Intrepid on two fantastic 'trips of a lifetime', but this Iceland Express was a real letdown. I'm so disappointed and I feel a partial refund would be appropriate. Iceland is beautiful and worth a visit, just not with... Show more

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are the Northern Lights guaranteed on this trip?

    Northern Lights (called the Aurora Borealis) is a naturally occurring phenomenon. The appearance of the Northern Lights is notoriously difficult to predict any further in advance than about two hours before it happens. Therefore, it is important to understand that the tour operator won’t be able to guarantee perfect weather conditions while on the tour. If you wish to be within a chance of seeing the lights then it would be best to take this tour from September to March, when the sky is still dark enough to see the lights.
