Expedition trips: A new kind of adventure

Adventure. Redefined.

Intrepid started 30 years with a bunch of friends road tripping through Africa in a modified-ex council truck, and that’s the same wide-eyed thirst for discovery that powers our Expeditions. These are our most off-the-beaten track trips to new and far-flung destinations. They’re about doing something original, unexpected, and as far from ‘the usual’ as you’re going to get. All it takes is a bunch of like-minded strangers, a local leader and a sense of adventure.

Go off the grid

Eagle hunter rides horse in Mongolia

Our inaugural ‘Intrepid Uncharted’ Expedition sold out so fast we had to bring it back. Our new Altai Mountains Expedition: Kazakhstan to Mongolia is an 18-day adventure through the wilds of Kazakhstan, Russia and Mongolia – like, really wild. Set off from Nur-Sultan (Astana) and travel to the depths of Russia, before weaving your way into western Mongolia for glacier trekking and other uncharted exploits.

New Women's Expeditions

Introducing Women's Expeditions

We believe travel is for everyone. But in some more conservative countries, there are things mixed-gender groups just can’t do. What if, as a female traveller in Iran, you could head down to the beauty salon with your female leader and get your hair done? The hijab comes off, the conversation is lively, the music is on, and there’s a real chance to connect. These are our new expeditions breaking down cultural barriers and building bridges between women from around the world.

Highlights

Meet the Nenet tribe of Russia

Eking out a living on the edge of the Siberian wilderness, Nenet reindeer herders lead a rustic existence far from modern Russia. For the first time, this nomadic tribe is inviting travellers into their home to experience their way of life. Travel from St Petersburg to Salekhard and be hosted in traditional yurt huts, sweat it out in a Russian banya and try your hand fishing on the banks of Horomdo Lake.

Camp out in Patagonia

Curling south towards Antarctica, Patagonia is one of the few remaining tracts of unspoiled wildlife on Earth. Discover sprawling glaciers, mountains and wild pastures on a special expedition through Argentina and Chile, including visits to Tronador Volcano and Todos los Santos Lake. While you’ll spend days trekking through incredible landscapes, you’ll also camp on the homestead of a 200-year-old house and soothe your feet in natural thermal pools found deep in the Patagonian forest.

Journey to India’s edge

Everyone knows about the colourful chaos of Mumbai and New Delhi, but few visit the outer reaches of India’s wetlands and mountains. Climb aboard a steam-powered train for a captivating ride through the Himalayas, stopping to track one-horned rhinos through Kaziranga National Park, meet warrior tribes in Nagaland, and pay homage to Tibetan Buddhists in cliff-side villages. Beginning and ending in Kolkata, this is a unique opportunity to explore West Bengal.

Go kayaking among orcas in Canada

Johnstone Strait in Canada is prime territory for some of the world’s most magnificent mammals: humpback whales, porpoises, dolphins and of course, orcas. And on this eight-day kayaking expedition you’ll have the chance to explore the wilderness, from the base of an oceanfront glamping site (complete with cedar hot tubs!). When you’re not at sea, take the time to explore the misty forests surrounding camp, including an inland glacial waterfall – the perfect swimming spot if you dare.
