“This craftsmanship is just incredible. 🪡 This is how indigenous Andean communities in Peru still handmake their stunning textiles, using ancient ancestral traditions, that haven't changed for thousands of years. A process so intertwined with Nature. I can't wait to hang my piece up at home! A truly beautiful afternoon spent with the Huilloc community high up in Peru's Sacred Valley, as part of Intrepid’s amazing 10-day 'Inca Encounter' tour. I'd love to hear what you think of these textiles and keeping ancient crafts like these alive!” 🎥 Leyla Kazim

“This is the Thorong La Pass (5,416m) in the Annapurna region of Nepal. The highest trekkable mountain pass in the world. After 2 weeks of trekking over 150km, a 3am start, -26 degree temperatures and breathing air with 50% less oxygen than what is at sea level reaching the pass is nothing short of euphoric! What an adventure.” -Intrepid traveller Issy on our 15-day Annapurna Circuit Trek. 💛
“Core memories were made with my Intrepid group in Sri Lanka’s Minneriya National Park. 🇱🇰🐘🥹 My recomendations for the best safari experience: wear neutral colors to blend in, keep your voice low to avoid spooking animals, bring plenty of water (there aren’t refreshment stops in the park), and plan your visit for early morning or dusk for the best wildlife viewing. This experience was truly unforgettable.🐾✨” -Intrepid traveller Tara on our 12-day Sri Lanka Explorer trip. #OnlyIntrepid
"Stop waiting for the perfect travel buddy or making excuses to skip that dream trip. Solo travel doesn’t have to mean being lonely! Right now, I’m in northern India with 9 incredible women on one of Intrepid’s Women’s Expeditions. There’s something so special about exploring the world with an all-women group. You never know who you’ll meet or what unforgettable moments you’ll share. 🌏" - 🎥 Shu #OnlyIntrepid
