Intrepid’s Black Friday sale has just launched, with up to 20% off hundreds of small-group adventures for a limited time.

This year’s sale features trips in more than 75 countries, including iconic destinations like Japan, Italy, Egypt, Peru and Vietnam.

With so many experiences on sale, knowing which ones to recommend can be a challenge. But who better to ask for inspiration than the Intrepid team themselves?
Keep reading to discover five trips Intrepid staff members would (and have!) booked in this year’s Black Friday sale – from wildlife encounters in Sri Lanka to stargazing in Morocco.

Best of Turkey: 20% off 

Intrepid’s 15-day Best of Turkey combines ancient history, Mediterranean coastlines and authentic local experiences. Travellers will share a Turkish barbecue with local hosts, visit the historic battlefields in Gallipoli and wander through Cappadocia’s otherworldly landscapes.
For Intrepid’s Customer Care Manager, Hannah, this trip lives up to its name:

‘Turkiye’s been on my list for a long time, and this trip really is the best of it: with ancient ruins, the Mediterranean coast and, of course, Cappadocia.’

Sri Lanka Family Holiday: 15% off 

For adventurous families, Intrepid’s Sri Lanka Family Holiday blends wildlife encounters with cultural moments and plenty of time outdoors. Itinerary highlights include an elephant-spotting safari in Udawalawe National Park and a home-cooked meal with a local family in Kandy.

Intrepid’s ANZ Senior Key Partnerships Manager, Leigh, has already booked it for his own family:

‘I can’t wait to show my girls such an amazing country that has so much to offer – from wildlife to lush scenery, rich culture, great people… and delicious food!!!’

Premium Morocco Highlights: 10% off 

Part of the elevated Premium range, Intrepid’s Premium Morocco Highlights offers a rich cultural immersion with a refined touch, including a Feature Stay in the Atlas Mountains and a curated selection of Premium Experiences.

For Intrepid’s ANZ Head of Partnerships, Megan, it’s these elevated experiences that make this trip stand out:

‘My highlights were sharing a traditional tagine lunch with a local farming family in Bin El Ouidane and staying in beautiful glamping tents in Agafay, where we learned how Moroccan people have used the stars to navigate the desert for generations.’

18 to 35s Real China: 10% off 

For young explorers keen to experience China’s famous food and sites, Intrepid’s 18 to 35s Real China packs plenty into a 12-day itinerary. Travellers will walk a section of the Great Wall, come face-to-face with pandas in Chengdu and get to know the regional specialties in every stop.

‘I think I ordered biang biang noodles five times throughout the trip… I can highly recommend,’ says Intrepid’s PR Coordinator Bridget.

Premium Iceland: 15% off 

The nine-day Premium Iceland trip combines Iceland’s dramatic landscapes with Intrepid’s Premium touch. Travellers will circle the island, stay at a contemporary hotel overlooking mountains and sea, and go whale watching off the northern coast.

Intrepid’s NZ Key Partnerships Manager, Leah, says it’s an unforgettable experience:

‘Iceland has been on my bucket list for a long time, and it blew me away. The scenery is just incredible, and photos don’t do it justice. From glaciers and waterfalls to whale watching and geothermal pools, every day brought something different.’
