Intrepid Travel, a certified B Corp and global leader in responsible small-group adventures, has added 28 new active trips for 2026. A move designed to help travel advisors meet the surging demand for health, nature, and adventure-driven travel.
The new collection spans six continents and includes hiking, cycling, kayaking, snorkeling, and rafting.
Advisors can now offer clients everything from:
- 4-day Premium Walking & Trekking in Peru with a guided tour in Machu Picchu
- 9-day Central America: Hike, Bike & Kayak trip with a sunrise volcano hike in Guatemala;
- 7-day Croatia and Montenegro: Hike, Bike & Raft itinerary through Europe’s deepest canyon.
With these additions, Intrepid’s active range now totals 148 trips across five multi-active, 21 walking and trekking, and two cycling itineraries, giving advisors more flexibility to match travellers with the right intensity and style.
“Intrepid’s style of travel has always resonated with people seeking active adventure, which makes this broader societal shift towards health and wellbeing especially exciting” says Erica Kritikides, General Manager of Experiences at Intrepid Travel. “For many travellers, the best way to unwind is by moving, and that’s exactly what our active adventures are all about. These trips let travellers move, explore and reconnect with nature, while sharing the experiences with a community of like-minded travellers. This style of travel takes you beyond the beaten path to hard-to-reach places, offering unique and immersive experiences that take you to the very heart of a destination.”
Intrepid’s new active trips are available to book and will depart from February 2026. See the appendix for the full list of new active trips and for more information, visit https://www.intrepidtravel.com/new-trips
The opportunity for advisors:
- Strong sales momentum: Active adventures are Intrepid’s fastest-growing category, up 9% year-over-year, with multi-active trips surging 23%.
- Market alignment: Global cycling tourism is projected to nearly double in the next decade, and hiking tours are growing around 6% annually, reflecting a broader shift toward wellness and outdoor connection.
- Easy to sell: Each trip includes a physical rating from one to five to help advisors qualify clients based on fitness level and travel style.
- Commissionable and trusted: Every itinerary is locally led and fully commissionable for advisors through Intrepid’s agent portal.
New Client Opportunity
For advisors, this growing category represents an opportunity to reach wellness-minded travellers, from weekend warriors to bucket-list explorers, who want to stay active, travel sustainably, and connect authentically.
Intrepid encourages agents to use these active itineraries to capture clients seeking shorter, purpose-driven adventures or bucket-list treks that can be combined with other experiences.
Advisor Tip
The new active adventures are great to pair with Intrepid’s Premium or Comfort ranges for multigenerational or post-pandemic wellness travellers seeking adventure with amenities.
For training, marketing assets, and trip details, advisors can log into the Intrepid Agent Hub or contact their regional sales manager.
