The reason I take a tour rather than travel on my own is because it’s nice to have someone else driving, checking into hotels, buying admission tickets to attractions, etc. Maddy with Intrepid tours not only did all those things, he also helped to facilitate my interactions with other people, including taking restaurant orders or delivering your food. Where I come from we call that going above and beyond. 10 stars.Show more

Maddy was our guide in this 15 day tour across India and Nepal. He was calm, organised and the whole trip appeared to go without a hitch. I witnessed him quietly taking care of individual guests needs to ensure each member had the best experience. Approachable, knowledgeable and full of humour, Maddy soon put us at ease and made the trip even more unforgettable.Show more
