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...

Midge· September 19th, 2024I wish I could recommend Intrepid, but we just returned from an Intrepid trip that was a hellacious travel experience. Our tour was from Sydney to Cairns (mind you, Intrepid is an Australian company). They put us with a guide who clearly didn't know the route and got us lost multiple times per day, both when he was driving to locations (he couldn't read Google Maps, seriously) and when we were out looking for hiking trails. He had no facts about the area and went off on tangents about his failed restaurants instead of teaching us about the history and agriculture. He was totally uncomfortable driving the van, and would park far away from locations in random open lots and make us drag our stuff for blocks because he didn't know how to park closer. There was one night when we were staying in a suburb, so he he drove us into town for dinner because it was too far to walk from our accommodation; he then drank alcohol with his dinner before driving us back, which made many of us uncomfortable. I and a number of other travelers emailed and called Intrepid incessantly throughout the tour to see if they could switch the guide to no response. We booked with Intrepid because we wanted an experienced guide and the ease of having logistics handled; because of our horrific guide, we had an infinitely worse travel experience than we would have had if we had traveled alone. Save your money and your stress and book with anyone else.Show more
