Intrepid Travel has come a long way since its humble beginnings in 1989. A company that began with two bearded backpackers, a typewriter and a kitchen table now leads 100,000 travellers across the globe each year.

Today, Intrepid runs more than 1,000 itineraries across the globe and employs more than 1,500 staff and leaders (many of whom don’t even have beards). And while Indiana Jones got bored of travelling after only three adventures (we don’t talk about the fourth), Intrepid is still adding to our list of itineraries across Europe, Asia, Africa, North & South America, the Middle East, Australia and both the Arctic & Antarctica.

About Botswana
Botswana has one major tourist attraction that you'll hardly find somewhere else. Most river deltas end in a sea or ocean. The 1600 km long Okavango river ends inland with no sea insight, at the Okavango Delta. The Kalahari desert covers most of Botswana and a wet delta with drinking water attracts a lot of semi-permanent wildlife. A favourite activity is looking for hippos in a dugout canoe...

There are more elephants in Botswana than anywhere else.
