The size of the group was perfect. The two guides were great - quite different but a good mix. They were informative, flexible and friendly. The activities were a good range of difficulty, and you could do as much as you were comfortable with. My favourite spots were the more remote areas, which I wouldn't have attempted if I was doing my own trip.
We had a short break in Tasmania which was most enjoyable. As always Georgie had everything organized for us. Georgie at Global journeys has helped us organise a number of holidays over the years and we have never had any problems. Look forward to our next holiday.
This trip ticked all our boxes. Hannah at Global Journeys kept us informed on the booking progress and procedures the whole way through and everything flowed as she said it would. All 3 countries were amazing and each had their own WOW factors. Our guides were astonishing in their knowledge and love of their homelands, sharing their own personal stories ...read more to help us understand how life is in their part of the world.
Every day started on time, the accommodation was 95% great, the buses were comfy with enough room to swap seats when we wanted to, two had Wifi on board & there were always healthy options at every meal. 12 was an absolutely ideal number to travel with & our companions shared our sense of humour - as did our guides - so lots of laughs every day. Egypt, Jordan & Israel are way behind the 8 ball in terms of their environmental awareness of limiting plastic so take your own keep cup! Absolutely would travel with Intrepid again. Couldn't fault their planning and care.

Nice trip with a very professional guide. Erawan falls is a beautiful 7 level waterfall, the most beautiful being the therd. The River Kwai Resort and Spa is really comfortable, with very good breakfast.
This was an amazing experience. Loved Egypt. Loved Intrepid. Tour Guide Mohammed treated us as all belonging to a family, this made a difference from other less impressive tours guides I have encountered on various groups.
Wanting to go on a walking adventure in between Christmas and New Year, I found an Intrepid/Global Journeys four day walk on Maria Island off the East Coast of Tasmania. What a beautiful part of the world. We were very well looked after with good meals and camping accommodation. The mix of 8 guests was great with everyone chatting as we walked along ...read more the tracks and beaches to reach camp. Nothing was too much trouble for the guides who told interesting stories of the history of the Island and points of interest each day. I loved it all.
