- NNiti· August 29th, 2022I recently took 2 trips with Intrepid. Jordan (8 days) and Egypt (12 days) – in June-2022. Here are my thoughts. (I have also shared some of this with Intrepid in their post-tour feedback.) Good • Guides are well informed and do a pretty decent job – keeping the group together. And explaining things. • They go out of their way to help with individual requests – shopping, side tours, health issues. • Execution is quite good. Things go as planned – stays, side trips, transfer logistics – are all well done. • Cost seems reasonable. Not good • Tip kitty. While the concept of a shared pool for tips is nothing new, there is NO transparency. Jordan guide collected 30USD (4 in the group, so 120USD) for 8 days. He even made us give the tips – so we knew who and how much. Egypt was a total mess. 60USD (10 in the group, so a whopping 600USD) for what was essentially a 10d trip. No one in the group knew who was getting the tips. And we all agreed there was NO WAY our guide was tipping 60USD per day (many days all we did was stay in a hotel and go on Intrepid bus tours)! • “Comfort” level: Don’t expect this to mean higher quality stays and rides and food. It just means the day starts at 10am and ends by 3pm. To give you ‘free time’ to relax. • Focus is ENTIRELY on hopping from one tourist site to the next. There is NOTHING focused on anything current in the country. No walking or culture or food tours in the cities. No good restaurants. No interaction with anything current. (Except 2 very STAGED dinners with local families – they get paid to host and make conversation!) • Guides DO NOT come with you inside many sites. They say a lot (hard to remember) – and then you walk around on your own. Even in big sites like Luxor (Egypt) or Petra (Jordan). • Even tho they charge thousands of dollars - Water in these warm climates is not free inside the bus. You pay 40 – 60 pounds per bottle. Cheap. And there are no paid meals – breakfast is usually included in hotel stays – so they are the only meals provided. • The hotels on the trip are just ugly big-box hotels – crowded with tourists. No local color or character. Nothing boutique. • Vendors in both these countries are ubiquitous. And they are aggressive (to the point of threatening), and very very persistent. The guides make NO EFFORT to shield you from them. Even allowing to come INSIDE THE BUS to harass you – as they sit upfront and watch. In coffee shops they take you to – they “allow” these vendors to come inside and stand 2 inches from you (no social distancing obviously) . There is obviously some kind of relationship between the guides and shop owners and these vendors. • Tour descriptions on the Intrepid website – or what they send as Essential Information for the tours – is laughably useless. Like someone cut and past from wikitravel or tripadvisor. And it is very out of date – even the tour guides say so. • I found the tour guides pick one or two people in the group – and focus all their attention on them. The others need to catchup – else the guide starts speaking. This was worse in Jordan with only 4 in the group. • Both my airport pickups were botched. NO ONE standing holding a sign. NO ONE even at the airport. I had to rely on the kindness of some other tour company driver in Cairo. Bad experience. • Trips are actually much shorter. Jordan was 8 days and Egypt was 10. There is NOTHING on the first and last day – so they are travel days. Should NOT be counted towards tour duration.Show moreTrip date: June 2022

Rachel
Asked on May 20th, 2023We are a group of 5 people who will be in Jordan Sunday May 28 to Wednesday May 31. We were wondering if you had a tour which visited Petra (and Petra by night), Wadi Rum and the Dead Sea in that timeframe?
Intrepid TravelOperator•Written May 2023Optional activity will need to be arranged with the tour leader while you are on ground unless otherwise it needs to be pre booked. Petra by Night tour runs Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, departing from the Petra visitor center at 830pm. Day 13 you will be visiting the Dead Sea and it is an included activity.

Asked on July 25th, 2022What is the cost for single occupancy and what are the vaccination requirements if any?
- Intrepid TravelOperator•Written July 2022
The cost of single occupancy for this departure is CAD $915. Right now, Intrepid does require travelers to be fully vaccinated (2 doses, or 1 dose of Johnson & Johnson). Right now, Egypt & Jordan are not requiring travelers to be fully vaccinated. Canadians do require a visa for Egypt, which can be obtained upon arrival, or electronically.
