What's this trip about?

    Journey to Croatia for a wet and wild family adventure. Travel to Trilj for a week of rafting, kayaking, cycling, swimming and canoeing around spectacular local waterways. Pack the sunscreen, the swimsuit and a sense of adventure and head out for a week of water-based activities along Croatia’s Dalmatian Coast. With fantastic whitewater rafting, river canoeing and ocean kayaking outings all on the agenda, rarely before has taking in Croatia's stunning natural scenery been so much fun. Away from the water, enjoy a change of scenery with a gentle inland cycle that takes in the hinterland's traditional villages. After an exhilarating week experiencing the country from its waterways, this Croatian River Adventure will leave you heading home with a renewed appreciation of the country and its natural beauty.

The Intrepid Travel Experience

If you’re looking for adventure, you’ve come to the right place. For the past 25 years, we’ve been taking small groups of travelers on unforgettable trips around the world. What makes them unforgettable? Take a look for yourself and discover the Intrepid experience.

Our travelers have three styles of tour to choose from: Basix, Original and Comfort. Each has a different level of inclusions and accommodation, but all have unforgettable real life experiences as part of the package. Travellers can also choose themed trips, such as Family, Sailing or Food, to suit their interests.

Our group size has an average of just ten travellers, which allows us to get off the beaten track, use local accommodation and transport, and really get to know the culture. It also ensures we are contributing to the local economy; by choosing local suppliers we were able to keep AUD 60 million in local economies in 2012. We’re also working hard to reduce our carbon footprint and were the first in our sector to introduce carbon offset trips. This, along with our many corporate sustainability activities, has meant we’re one of the travel industry’s leaders in responsible travel.

Why Intrepid?

  •   Small groups - average of 10 people per trip
  •   Sustainability - pioneers for the industry
  •   Local leaders - authentic perspectives
  •   Local transport - get close and personal
  •   Local accommodation - experience real living
  •   Intrepid travelers - like-minded companions
