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...

    What an amazing trip! Our guides were excellent. Absolutely loved all the cultural trips and the local food. A lot of options for additional activities (e.g. cooking classes, bike rides, etc.). 100% recommend Intrepid Travel as tour operator and Tour Radar for booking your trip.

    I would prefer having more meals included. Schedule of all activities might have been organised better: too much spare time on some days (would love seeing more temples in Ankgor Wat and having more time in Halong Bay)

    My wife and I have recently returned from a truly excellent 18-Day "Best of Vietnam and Cambodia." The group of fourteen comprised British, Australian, South African, Canadian and New Zealanders, ranging in age from late twenties to 70. Fortunately, the younger element was able to keep up with the older ones and, in spite of the wide age-range, the group melded perfectly - we frequently chose to dine together. We are experienced travellers and have usually organised our own trips. We thought we knew what we wanted to see in South-East Asia but, when we read Intrepid's itinerary, we couldn't improve on it. There are too many highlights to mention in a brief review but the standard of our hotels, the variety of modes of transport, the seamless organisation, the opportunities for visiting places which we would never have found for ourselves and, most of all, the enthusiasm and competence of our two local guides all deserve mention. One does not need to be "intrepid" to enjoy this trip but normally independent travellers need not fear that they will be herded in a large mob. You will want to participate in all of the visits and activities and there is enough "free" time in which to explore on your own. Judging by this, our first experience of Intrepid Travel, we can wholeheartedly recommend them.
