Intrepid launches another 14 new local adventures in Australia

With state borders opening and consumer confidence soaring, Intrepid Travel continues to grow their local offerings with 14 more Australian adventures designed to support local communities and offer meaningful First Nations experiences. 

Intrepid Travel, the world’s leading sustainable tour operator, has introduced 14 new Australian itineraries to its growing collection of local tours. Designed to support local communities and celebrate First Nations cultures and histories, the new tours mark a significant step in Intrepid’s ongoing commitment to developing trips closer to home, as state borders open across Australia and traveller confidence continues to grow.

The 14 new local adventures across every state and territory (except ACT) bolster Intrepid’s existing Local Travel range, launched earlier this year. Intrepid now offers a total of 22 local trips in Australia.

As part of the new tours, travellers can expect more active and wellness itineraries, as well as trips that highlight local food and produce. After a year when many extended families have been separated by state border closures, or forced to spend extended time in lockdown, there are also new family adventures that will bring families closer and out of the house.

Intrepid has also deepened their support and commitment to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities, with many trips featuring First Nations experiences.

Sample highlights from the newly launched tours include:

5-day Warrumbungles Dark Sky Adventure – from $2,220 AUD

Venture past the Blue Mountains to the forested and artisanal heart of New South Wales. This trip includes produce tastings, wilderness walks, visits to The Dish observatory and the Three Sisters lookout, and local insight into First Nations cultures in the area.

6-day Margaret River & Albany Adventure – from $2,945 AUD

Immerse yourself in a First Nations tour like no other, go tasting wines, cheese and chocolate in the epicurean Margaret River region, spend a unique night surrounded by some of Australia’s animal treasures at Donnelly River Village and get to know the southern coast with wildlife and wilderness experiences in and around Albany.

5-day Queensland Hinterland Adventure – from $2,305 AUD

Make your way to the hinterland of southern Queensland, where ancient, World Heritage rainforest, tens of thousands of years of Indigenous stories and culture, and small community hospitality make for an Australian getaway full of food, beaches, walks, culture and amazing nature experiences each day.

5-day Australia: Daintree Family Holiday – from $2,285 AUD

This family-focused trip takes you into the heart of the land the Kuku Yalanji people have called home for 50,000 years, into the complex ecosystem of the forest and deserted white-sand beaches. You and your family will have the chance to learn about hunting native plants from a First Nations guide, encounter crocodiles and colourful birds on a cruise through mangrove thickets and walk under heavy green canopy in Mossman Gorge.

5-day Victoria’s Great South West Walk – from $1,995 AUD

Discover the dramatic scenery of Victoria’s South West, from rocky sea cliffs to remote bushland, on this 5-day walking trip of the region. With sandy white beaches and an abundance of wildlife, travellers will discover why it is one of the stats’ most underrated regions.
