The Middle East is living, breathing proof of an old maxim: you don’t know, until you go.

Forget the headlines and the hyperbole; this is the cradle of civilizations, an ancient land emerging as a modern power, with the money, culture and panache to back it up. Ride camels with Bedouin tribespeople across the dunes of the Sahara, haggle for gold in the souqs of downtown Amman, marvel at the Blue Mosque on a Turkey trip, cruise the Nile beneath the white sail of a felucca or float forever in the mineral-rich waters of the Dead Sea. Wherever you go, three things will follow: the faint scent of cloves and camel, the echoing call to prayer and the smiles of people that call this place home.

Turkey Highlights

James · Traveled July 2024

Just completed an Intrepid, highlights of Turkey tour. Wow! Amazing destinations brought to life by an amazing guide and a fantastic group to share it with. I’ve finished this tour with my eyes fully open to Turkey as a country and can’t wait to take my next trip here. A big shout out to our guide Beykan who has in my eyes shown himself as a model of the Turkish people. Thank you for making this trip so memorable.

Explore Jordan

Lucy · Traveled July 2024

This was an amazing trip; we had a great guide with extensive knowledge and genuine passion for Jordanian history and culture. Jordan is a lovely and safe country, with so much to explore - Wadi Rum & Petra are truly unbelievable until you’re there. I’d recommend this trip, and our guide Mohammad, to anyone.

Turkey Backroads

Cristina · Traveled July 2024

I came to Turkey with no expectations and this trip has highly exceeded all my initial ideas. Intrepid has created a well-planned tour, easy to follow and with an exceptional guide who accompanied us and took care of us at all times. Transport and acommodations are basic for this tour, so make sure you can carry your own luggage.

Booked our holiday with intrepid without going through many details as it was recommended by the agent as her favourite and the most trusted tour agency! So happy with the advice, it was great to have someone looking after you 24/7 in the foreign country, feel safe amd don't worry about the next step because everything is organised!
