If you’ve followed Intrepid Escape for any period of time, you’ll have seen that I love nothing more than a good road trip. It’s all about the flexibility to plan the exact trip you want.

Cruise Ships around the world share several common features to make them successful; The swimming pools, hot tubs, theatre shows, cocktail bars and fantastic dining options.

So, I just went to Kazakhstan. I really do not know where to start when I talk about my most recent epic trip. Even the word epic does not do it justice. I had resigned myself to local travel and the odd small getaway. But then, unexpectedly an agency called We Are Komodo contacted me…

The scenery in this region is stunningly beautiful, with landscapes ranging from…
Incredible landscapes, mind-blowing wildlife opportunities and warm, friendly locals. That should have read ‘spoiler alert’. This my friends, is the Guyana Rupununi Savannah. There aren’t many words that can express how much I enjoyed my time in the Guyana Rupununi Savannah. It’s a real treat to go somewhere very few people get to travel. I…
Ever since the first trip I’ve ever taken, I’ve appreciated the benefits of group travel. From adventures in South East Asia, to city hopping in Europe, I love group travel.
