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...

    Our trip to the Galápagos Islands was planned as a holiday of a lifetime and it didn't disappoint. The organisation by Intrepid was fantastic. Everything went so smoothly once we were in their hands and no part of the trip failed, from the transfers from the airport to the tour itself. We snorkelled in clear waters with Sea Lions and Turtles, saw Giant Tortoises and Marine Iguanas, Blue-footed Boobies and Pelicans, to name but a few. Our guide was fantastic and she made the trip what it was - absolutely brilliant!

    Our Galapagos tour with Intrepid was one of the best tours I've ever been on! Our itinerary was perfect and allowed us a variety of experiences and animal interactions. Each day brought new adventures and encounters. It far exceeded all my expectations And our guide was the best ever! He was personal, enthusiastic, genuinely loved the islands, animals and his job, and worked hard to give the entire group an experience like no other. Intrepid will definitely be my go-to agent for future tours!

    Intrepid provided us with an amazing trip through the Galapagos. Our small group enabled us to move to activities smoothly and easily. Excursions were meaningful, informative and full of beautiful sights and wildlife and our guide was sensational. We enjoyed every minute and will book again!

    If you love snorkeling and wildlife this would be a perfect tour for you. We saw sooo many animals and fish! Our trip was outstanding and we got lucky seeing a few rare sites- a huge pod of dolphins swimming alongside our boat, a bird eating a baby snake, a penguin swimming by us as we docked. And so much more! Our guide was superb- incredibly knowledgeable, charismatic, local to the island and super organized. My mother and I learned so much and made some true core memories. I am so happy we went on this trip with intrepid and I can't recommend it enough

    Excellent introduction to the Galapagos, both in terms of geography, peoplfe and wildlife, especially wildlife. It’s a busy schedule to achieve everything but plenty of time to enjoy the place too. An excellent guide is a great help
