Fewer clichés, more adventures
Because even the most well-trodden destinations look different from a local's perspective, we think getting off the beaten path is less about where you go and more about who you'll meet along the way.
Local communities are at the heart of every Intrepid trip. Small groups are led by expert local guides, meals are eaten in family-run restaurants and many itineraries incorporate village homestays. So while you may not be venturing where no travellers have gone before (and let's be honest, very few are), you'll get an authentic glimpse of a destination through the eyes of the people who live there. Whether it's heart-thumpingly active trips, soul (and belly) nourishing adventures or unique lodgings you won't find on Tripadvisor, we're here to celebrate the joys of travel... on path and off.

Highlights
If you're a well-seasoned traveller and you've hit all of India's highlights but are still craving more, consider an expedition. This trip will open your eyes to a side of India rarely seen by foreign travellers as you journey through rambling mountain villages, search for the iconic one-horned rhinoceros in wildlife reserves and learn about the cultures of indigenous locals. This one's for the adventurers.
Forget bouncing from city to city on a stuffy coach bus; sailing's where it's at. When you sail the coast of Croatia, you get the best of both worlds: the ability to explore the highlights of this beautiful Balkan country while having access to secluded spots that won't show up in the guidebooks. With flexible itineraries and the ability to sail away from the crowds, you'll get a real taste of what life is like for the locals.
If you're looking to literally get off the beaten path, you'll have to leave the city behind and head into the jungle. When you join a multi-active trip in Costa Rica, you'll explore using only the most unique modes of transportation. Think: whizzing through the treetops on a zip-line, cascading through white-water rapids and biking your way along the jungle-lined coast. Thrill seekers unite!
You know what they say... food has no language barrier. Whether you're into sampling from street food stalls or want to learn from a home cook, there's no better way to see a destination than on a food tour. With a local leader by your side, you'll be fueled up and ready to explore Sri Lanka's rich culture, wildlife-filled countryside and ornate temples... with plenty of snack stops, of course.
