Meet Maya history at Chichen Itza
If you like your Mayan ruins with a touch of disco, then you’ve come to the right place. Set on Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula, this ancient city comes alive at sunset with a (slightly kitsch but entirely unmissable) sound and light show. The site is dominated by El Castillo, a massive pyramid with 91 steps running along each of its four sides.
Go white-water rafting in Costa Rica
If you’re going to try white-water rafting anywhere, the Pacuare River in Costa Rica is the place. Set among cascading waterfalls and lush rainforests, the warm water is ideal for first-timers. During the calmer moments keep your eyes peeled for jaguars, toucans, ocelots and monkeys.
Explore the tumbledown ruins of Antigua
Coffee all day, salsa all night and a never-ending supply of chocolate in between. This small Guatemalan city is super chilled and an extended stay is the best way to soak it all in. While there are plenty of ruins to be found, the city is famous for its colourful convents, arches and buildings in colourful hues of blue, pink, and yellow.
Havana blast in Cuba
There’s so much to do here, it’ll leave your head spinning. Join the fun with a twirl around the dance floor in a salsa class, check out a baseball game, swing past the mansion-turned-perfume-laboratory at Habana 1791, or grab a guava pastry from one of the vendors along the Malecon. Close out the day with a cigar and a glass of good ol’ fashioned Cuba Libre.

I recently went on the Beautiful Cuba tour with Intrepid, and it was an incredible experience. The itinerary was well-planned, allowing us to see the best of Cuba, including Havana, Vinales, Trinidad, and Santa-Clara. Our guide, Barbara, was knowledgeable and friendly, making the trip even more enjoyable. The diverse activities gave us a great mix of culture, history, and nature. Overall, I had an unforgettable time and highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Cuba.

Anthony · Traveled May 2024
The Costa Rica Experience trip was an excellent experience. It lived up to all expectations of what I was hoping to do and see, including seeing many iconic birds and animals. Rafael’s knowledge and enthusiasm for Costa Rica showed and we all learned so much from him during the trip.
