Intrepid Travel, founded in 1989 by Geoff Manchester and Darrell Wade in Melbourne, Australia, has grown to become one of the most recognised names in global adventure tourism. The founders are still actively involved in the company today, helping to uphold the values and vision that have earned Intrepid a stellar reputation among adventure seekers worldwide.

Often referred to as the world’s largest small group adventure travel company, Intrepid offers over 1,000 immersive trips across more than 100 countries. Whether you’re seeking cultural encounters, off-the-beaten-track experiences, or epic wildlife adventures, there’s an Intrepid tour to suit every type of traveller.

What Makes Intrepid Travel Stand Out?

Intrepid’s unique approach to sustainable and responsible travel is one of its key selling points. The company doesn’t just offer great holidays; it aims to leave a positive impact on the communities and environments it touches. This commitment is evidenced by its certification as a B Corporation, recognising companies that meet high standards of social and environmental performance, transparency, and accountability. Intrepid also voluntarily publishes an annual impact report, showcasing its efforts in areas like carbon offsetting, ethical tourism, and charitable initiatives. To date, the Intrepid Foundation has raised over $6 million AUD for community-based projects and global causes.

Intrepid trips are designed with accessibility and inclusivity in mind. Most tours are based on twin-share accommodation, which means solo travellers are paired with a like-minded traveller of the same sex—one of the reasons over 50% of Intrepid travellers are solo adventurers. Those who prefer a private room can usually pay a little extra to enjoy their own space. This built-in social structure encourages friendships, cultural exchange, and shared memories—many of which last a lifetime.

With an emphasis on small group sizes, typically capped at 12 people, travellers enjoy a more personalised experience and deeper connection with the places they visit. Activities are thoughtfully curated to offer meaningful experiences—think homestays, local cooking classes, cycling through rural villages, or wildlife safaris with ethical operators.
