Reply from: Intrepid TravelNathan, thank you so much for your feedback on your trip with us in Brazil! We are thrilled to hear that you had such a great time and that your leader Luma, was the perfect fit for your group. Our leaders are really such a huge part of the success of our tours and Luma is a great example of the passion and pride our leaders take in their country! Thank you as well for the suggestion to begin including trips to the Pantanal region and Florianopolis. We have forwarded that on to our product development teams for review. Thank you again, and we look forward to many more adventures in the future!Show more - LLaShawnDecember 11th, 2024I really enjoyed my guide. She was pleasant and sweet.

We are sorry to hear of the misinformation regarding the water avaiable, and lack of towels at your stated hotels- we are happy for all feedback and will pass this along to our hotel partners. We are happy to look into the hotel selection with our Customer Care team to see that they are meeting our trip expectations. This is a Basix style tour so sometimes there can be a bit of walking and travel from the city centres for these tours. Keeping in mind the geography of the destination, and of future destinations, we are always happy to discuss mobility with our travellers and can provide a mobility survey if you are not sure a trip is suitable for you or not. We are happy to read that your guide was a five star- and we hope you made some wonderful memories while away! With many thanks.Show more

Asked on May 21st, 2025Would it be possible to join the tour as a tour manager after I book it? And would I get paid for that? Would I be able to work for you as a tour manager for other trips that I don't necessarily organize? Would my flight and hotel be free as well if I come as a tour manager?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written May 2025
We are unable to accommodate additional tour managers on our scheduled trips, as we already have designated tour leaders assigned to each departure. These leaders are trained specifically for Intrepid's style of travel and itinerary requirements. If you are interested in exploring opportunities to work with Intrepid as a tour leader, we encourage you to check out Intrepid Careers.

Traveler•Written November 2024How young is the youngest traveler? I have a group of 15 adults and 1 eight-year-old that is ready to book for April 2025. The parent of the 8-year-old has a family of 4 and does not want to leave her 8-year-old behind.
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written December 2024
The minimum age requirement is 15, which unfortunately means that we cannot accommodate your 8-year-old on this particular trip. However, we're excited about the possibility of arranging a custom private tour with another operator tailored to your needs.
