Responsible travel specialist Intrepid Travel is widening its accessibility for young adult travel by expanding its 18s-29s trip range to 18s-35s.
The change is effective immediately.
This expansion is part of Intrepid’s broader move to cater for next-generation travel, growing its trip range in 2024 to provide more enriching and local-led travel opportunities for gen-zs and millennials – from a night sail through the Amazon jungle with a local guide in Peru, to a homestay surrounded by terraced rice fields in Vietnam.
Hazel McGuire, UK general manager for Intrepid, said: “We’re seeing strong demand for our youth-focused trip range, particularly through trade partners.
“Young people are no longer looking for the large groups and party-packed nights of the past. They want climate-conscious, authentic experiences that allow them to connect with local communities.”
In 2024, Intrepid introduced 15 new trips exclusive to this age range, including a 9-Day Essential South Korea, Six Days in Iceland, and One Week in Morocco. Like all Intrepid trips, these small-group tours are expertly curated by local leaders for a truly authentic experience. They have been designed with younger people’s interests in mind, including more free time for travellers to explore on their own, and active experiences. This range also offers great value for money, ensuring travellers can make their budget go further.
