What travelers are saying

"I did the EBC trek with Intrepid in September and October. Our group missed the first 3 days of the planned 12 day trek due to bad weather. There was a real fear we would not be able to do the trek at all. Intrepid sorted out additional accommodation and flights once we were able to fly. Our group made it to EBC by missing the 2 acclimation days on the accent and descending in 3 days instead of 4. This was only possible because of the awesome staff (guides and porters) employed by Intrepid and by Intrepid's backroom staff making alternative accommodation and flight arrangements for us."

Delve into the communist past and progressive present of the Pearl of the Danube - Budapest, a city often underrated by travellers

Visit the seldom-visited Gjirokaster in Albania and get your caffeine fix with a taste of the local Turkish coffee made ‘on the stone’ with a local guide.

What travelers are saying

"Trip filled with various activities yet not overwhelming. Excellent tour directors, special thanks to *personal details removed by Feefo* for exceptional customer care! Our trip started in Hahoi and ended in Siam Reap. We had to fly to Phnom Penh for the international flight back home. Another version of the trip had a Phnom Penh extension which was not available to me at the time of booking. I think we had a little too much time in Siam Reap, and it would be better to cut a day/half a day there and add at least a day in Phnom Penh. Other than that- all great memories!"
