Places You’ll See
Highlights
- Soak up the unique atmosphere of a candle flower ceremony at dusk on the Ganges River in Varanasi, then wake up early for a sunrise boat ride, where you’ll watch the light gradually illuminate the many ghats and temples along the river.
- Explore the Taj Mahal – one of the Seven Wonders of the World – and learn of its lesser-known poetic history from a local expert among the surrounding gardens.
- Discover the secret flavours and spices of traditional specialities during a cooking class in a local home, then – arguably the best part – sit down to feast on your creations. Is there anything better than deliciously fresh Indian cuisine?
- Rub shoulders with the locals, go on a sightseeing adventure in a rickshaw and immerse yourself in the cultural heart of India on guided walking tours of Delhi, Jaipur and Varanasi.
- Wander the streets of the gorgeous Pink City of Jaipur and maybe even start your morning here with a sunrise hot air balloon ride – this optional activity is well worth the early start!
- By travelling on this trip, you’ll learn about our Intrepid Foundation partner, Positive Change for Marine Life. Donations help them to nurture ocean health with community-led conservation initiatives that inspire coastal restoration, sustainable fishing practices and waste-management. Intrepid will double the impact by dollar-matching all post-trip donations made to The Intrepid Foundation.

Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and...

- CACatharina· November 8th, 2019Excellent. Very Knowledgeable, personable, organized and friendly. He did everything he could to help if we had problems, and worked hard to include extra options when possible.Trip date: September 2019
- AAnn S· September 18th, 2019Great experience, well organised with an excellent bunch of peopleTrip date: December 2018
- AEmily K· September 18th, 2019Tour leader Yaddu was burned out and checked out. He did the bare minimum and anytime there was an offer to contact him or answer ask questions it was out of obligation. On days where we didn’t have activities planned he suggested two things, didn’t give any information on them, then when asked for further information he stumbled on the details and it was clear he didn’t know. When I asked again about it the following day he then said all the sudden that it was not possible and gave no alternatives. We were on our own to figure out the metro, things to see and do, etc. Instead of taking us anywhere interesting for dinner in Delhi we ate at the hotel restaurant twice. We later discovered a nice restaurant nearby which would have been perfect (Kitchen with a Cause) and would have fit nicely with Intrepid’s mission.Show moreTrip date: December 2018
