We are unable to accommodate additional tour managers on our scheduled trips, as we already have designated tour leaders assigned to each departure.

Convenient way to see some iconic parts of rockies. Went to busy sites so don't expect to ' get away from it all'....
Convenient way to see some iconic parts of rockies. Went to busy sites so don't expect to ' get away from it all'. Hiking was easy . Small group ( but equally small van). This is camping so expected to do some work around cleaning and cooking and packing up camp but this got too much at times. You should hope for a group of people who can share the load. There is only one guide who does all driving and all logistics ( ie buying food, menu planning, etc) so this is big load for one person (and she worked hard). Therefore, our guide did not have enough head space to actually give good information about what we were seeing nor clear explanations about changes to itinerary. Overall, we disappointed that this was not an inexpensive trip yet Intrepid are cost saving a bit too much in places.Show more

That said, I'm sorry to learn that aspects of the experience left you feeling disappointed. We understand your concerns regarding the level of participation required around camp, the communication of itinerary changes, and your overall perception of the trip's value. While our camping adventures are designed to be a shared experience, they should still feel enjoyable, well organised, and rewarding throughout. We genuinely appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. Feedback like yours is invaluable as it helps us better understand where we can improve and continue delivering the experience our travellers expect from us.
