Middle East Tours & Holidays

The Middle East is living, breathing proof of an old maxim: you don’t know, until you go. 

Forget the headlines and the hyperbole; this is the cradle of civilisations, an ancient land emerging as a modern power, with the money, culture and panache to back it up. Ride camels with Bedouin tribespeople across the dunes of the Sahara, haggle for gold in the souqs of downtown Amman, marvel at the Blue Mosque on a Turkey trip, cruise the Nile beneath the white sail of a felucca or float forever in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea. Wherever you go, three things will follow: the faint scent of cloves and camel, the echoing call to prayer and the smiles of people that call this place home.

Intrepid as always provided a great service, both in planning and backroom staff, and our superb tour leader Mariam. Professional, charming and talented. We had a great time. Not my first or last trip with this company.

Julie · Traveled April 2024
Our premium trip to Egypt exceeded our expectations in every respect. Accommodation was of a high standard. Our guide, Mariam, saw us through every aspect of our trip, ensuring all arrangements went smoothly and we were able to simply concentrate on making the most of the opportunities and experiences offered. Highly recommended.

Premium Jordan

Chris · Traveled April 2024
So glad we didn't cancel. Jordan suffers from bad neighbours but that shouldn't stop anyone from coming here. Or guide Ahmad was brilliant. So many wonderful sights & experiences.
