Intrepid Travel has launched a new Premium Family range, expanding the offering with eight new trips across Costa Rica, Sri Lanka, Borneo, Vietnam, Morocco, Thailand and Egypt.
Designed for small groups of three to five like-minded families and led by Intrepid’s most experienced local guides, the range combines elevated accommodation and extensive inclusions with immersive, kid-friendly travel experiences.
The new range responds to the growing demand for hassle-free family travel, bringing together Intrepid’s most comfortable travel style – Premium – and its established Family range, which already spans more than 50 itineraries worldwide and recorded 19 per cent year-on-year growth in 2025. A recent Intrepid survey of over 2,600 parents across Australia, US, Canada and the UK found that 80 per cent want their children to experience new cultures and destinations, while 70 per cent place greater value on holidays here planning, logistics and other stresses are handled for them.
Highlights of the new itineraries include a night in a Sahara Desert camp on the 10-day Morocco Premium Family Holiday, where families can enjoy a traditional dinner, watch live Gnaoua music and stargaze under an uninterrupted sky. On the 9-day Borneo Premium Family Holiday, families stay in an overwater villa, where they can kayak, snorkel and stand-up paddleboard, and take part in a coral planting workshop to learn about the region’s delicate marine ecosystem. While the 8-day India Golden Triangle Premium Family Holiday offers the chance to see an impressive diversity of birdlife on a rickshaw ride through Keoladeo National Park and spot wildlife at Jhalana Leopard Safari Park on an open-roof 4WD safari.
“The new Premium Family range combines the comfort and convenience of our Premium offering with the immersive, child-friendly format of our Family trips,” Intrepid Travel general manager Erica Kritikides said.
“Led by our most experienced local leaders and featuring extensive inclusions, they give families the chance to explore the world together without the stress of planning and logistics, leaving lasting memories that will be talked about for years to come. Holiday time is precious, and at a time when the world can feel increasingly overwhelming and divided, these journeys create space to discover new destinations and reconnect through shared, meaningful experiences.”
Intrepid now offers 58 family tours, spanning 6 continents and 30 countries. The tours are available in four styles, Basix, Original, Comfort and now Premium with each style offering progressively more inclusions, elevated experiences and higher standard accommodation. The new Premium Family trips are available to book and departs from December 2026.
