Comfort
Explore travel's softer side
Our Comfort trips are all about adventure, with a higher level of comfort than our Original and Basix trips. These slower-paced trips are built to smooth some of travels rougher edges, meaning you’ll be on private transport more often, the pace will be more relaxed and your accommodation will be a touch above the essentials. You’ll also be treated to more included meals and leader-led activities, with a focus on embracing all things local.
Where you can go
Where you'll stay
Where we stay ensures we keep our travellers firmly entrenched in a region’s people and culture, and provides them with unique local experiences that benefits the community too. In most locations we stay in comfortable hotels, though on most of our trips we also get to stay a night or two in some pretty special feature stays on most trips.
Take in views that stretch as far as the eye can see with an incredible desert stay. If it's one-of-a-kind stays you crave, then look no further.
Become acquainted with the India of old on overnight stays in charming heritage properties; a welcome refuge in a country renowned for its intensity.
Be treated to a night of traditional Bedouin hospitality and unrivalled stargazing in the immense desert landscape of Wadi Rum.
Cosy down in rustic seclusion amid roasting log fires, warm woolen blankets and hearty meals in the natural beauty of the haunting Alaskan woodlands.
Check in and unwind at this relaxing lodge surrounded by vibrant green canopies. Is there anything better than this?
Take a breath of pine-scented air during a relaxing farm stay on forest-covered Saaremaa, the largest island in Estonia, and share a home-cooked dinner made from local produce.
What to expect
The passion of our local leaders is what makes Intrepid’s trips so special. You’ll have a highly experienced leader with invaluable local knowledge who’ll be there for you every step of the way.
Our Comfort-style trips follow a more structured itinerary and feature more included activities. This leaves you to reap the benefits of more time in the company of a local leader – and their local knowledge.
Several meals are included – all of your breakfasts along the way and then perhaps visits to some of our favourite restaurants with your group to get a taste of the region.
How you'll get around
Our Comfort trips mostly use private vehicles, though in some destinations we seek out unique modes of transport for speed and convenience.
This could be anything from a bullet train through the Japanese countryside, a traghetto ride on the canals of Venice or a sailing trip down the Nile River on a private felucca.
