"We're a well-traveled bunch at Intrepid so when somewhere new blows you away and smashes into your Top 5 travel experiences ever... well that's a special. Wadi Rum did that, if you're a fan of otherworldly landscapes, sunsets over the dunes, and the warmest hospitality from Bedouin hosts... ahh enjoy!"

"Valbona Valley was an incredible experience, we had a couple of days here in a great hotel nestled between the peaks of the valley. Our room had a stunning view and the vibe of the valley was so relaxing. There were several hiking options, and the highlight was meeting with a local farmer, Adem, who had lived in the valley since he was young, raised a family and lived through the Balkan war."

"The Tre Cime trek, is exactly what I went to the dolomites for, these epic full day hikes where you're surrounded by rugged mountain ranges and jagged peaks. What surprised me is just how accessible these high and dramatic places are. You simply catch a public bus to the start of the trail and within a few hours walking you could be taking a photo just like this one"

Wadi Rum did that for me, so if you're a fan of otherworldly landscapes, sunsets over the dunes, the vast desert sky at night, and the warmest hospitality from Bedouin hosts... ahh enjoy! My only worry is how we're going to top that for our kids this year!"

We're here to do good

Looking after you & the World

At Intrepid we understand everyone’s journey is different which is why we ensure we offer a strong Employee Assistance Program with a 24/7 service that offers counselling for you and your family. Intrepid also offers their office-based employees 20 hours of volunteer leave every year, so they can make a difference towards causes that are important to them 

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Our people reflect the diversity of our customers and the communities we visit. Our team is made up of 58 nationalities across 46 countries, and Intrepid recognises that diversity makes us a stronger business. With a commitment to breaking down barriers, we support a culture where people can be themselves. We encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, including First Nation People, LGBTQI+ people, people living with a disability, people from previously disadvantaged backgrounds, and people from different ethnicities, races, and religions.

Here's just a few ways we're doing better

For our people.

We strongly believe in work-life balance and invest in our people. That’s why we’ve introduced three weeks of paid parental leave (or caregiver leave) for all staff – regardless of gender, we encourage office-based staff to work flexible hours that best suit their lifestyle and we champion diversity amongst our teams.
We have created a Purpose Champions Network for staff to be directly involved in creating and implementing purpose initiatives they are passionate about.
We offer training on Purpose, from BIPOC and Size Inclusivity training, right through to how to become a climate change advocate. At Intrepid we encourage our people to understand and learn about Purpose issues and do our best to embed this into our company culture at every opportunity.
We want our people to be part of our impact by using their 20 hours of volunteer leave to connect and support a cause that is important to them or by fundraising for our Intrepid Foundation partners to make a change in the communities that support us.

For the planet.

Our purpose is to inspire, create, share and lead the best travel experiences ever – for both people and the planet. That's why we’ve been carbon-neutral since 2010, carbon offset all our trips, and have a seven-point commitment plan that supports our Climate Emergency declaration.

For the communities we visit.

We're genuinely connected to and invested in the places we go, the people we meet along the way, and the communities at the heart of every Intrepid experience. That’s why we hire locally-based leaders, support small grassroots businesses, and help almost 40 partners around the world through our not-for-profit, the Intrepid Foundation.
