Intrepid Travel carried more than 35,000 customers in September, its busiest month ever, with departed revenue up 11 per cent year on year.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The operator said growth was strongest in the Middle East, Europe and Asia. Australians made up 43 per cent of travellers globally.<\/p>\n

Morocco was the most popular destination worldwide, followed by Vietnam and Italy. Vietnam led for Australian travellers, followed by domestic travel (up 145%), Morocco, India and Egypt. New Zealanders favoured Vietnam, Morocco, Egypt (up 61%), Sri Lanka and Turkey.<\/p>\n

Ecuador (up 93%), Argentina (up 59%) and Uzbekistan (up 40%) recorded the fastest growth in customer numbers.<\/p>\n

Intrepid said the result reflected a return of traveller confidence after uncertainty in the Middle East earlier this year, along with the appeal of shoulder-season travel and continued demand for locally led experiences.<\/p>\n

Intrepid Travel ANZ managing director Brett Mitchell said September was always popular for travellers seeking milder post-peak temperatures across Europe, the Middle East and Northern Africa, \u201cbut this year the demand has been exceptional\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cDespite rising cost pressures and ongoing geopolitical uncertainties, travel remains a key aspiration for more people,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Close to home<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Mitchell was recently appointed to the Great Walks of Australia<\/a> board, so he has added a focus on the opportunity for Australian walking holidays and nature-based adventures.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re seeing strong interest in getting outdoors and exploring closer to home,\u201d Mitchell said, as Intrepid reported domestic travel up 145 per cent year-on-year in September. \u201cWalking and nature-based travel are a natural fit for the kind of experiences we offer. They give people the chance to slow down, connect with a place and experience it beyond the usual tourist trail. Australia has some incredible landscapes to discover, and walking is a great way to experience them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Intrepid is also seeing strong interest in trips across Australia and New Zealand, alongside demand for active, nature-based experiences. Intrepid just launched more than 80 new trips for 2027, including more options closer to home for Aussies. In New Zealand, Hawke\u2019s Bay, Aoraki\/Mt Cook, the area around Mt Taranaki and Whakat\u0101ne are new destinations for Intrepid.<\/p>\n

The new seven-day North Island Adventure includes Indigenous-led experiences, as does Australia\u2019s new seven-day Brisbane to Sydney Adventure. Other new local trips include Cycle New Zealand: Alps to Ocean and Tasmania\u2019s Freycinet Experience Walk.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are looking for different ways to travel, whether that\u2019s discovering somewhere new overseas or finding an adventure closer to home. There\u2019s plenty of opportunity to do both,\u201d Mitchell said.<\/p>\n

On a few international rising stars, Ecuador (+93%), Argentina (+59%) and Uzbekistan (+40%) were among Intrepid\u2019s fastest-growing destinations in September. Vietnam also remains a firm favourite with Australian travellers.<\/p>\n

\u201cTravellers are continuing to look beyond the usual hotspots for somewhere different. Destinations like Ecuador, Argentina and Uzbekistan offer the kind of immersive, locally led experiences that people are looking for,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Family matters<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Personally, Mitchell has just returned from family trip which featured an African safari, reflecting the growing interest from families with young children wanting to explore the world together, alongside continued demand for immersive, locally led experiences.<\/p>\n

As a result, Intrepid launched new premium family trips this year with the family style of travel growing year-on-year, with YTD bookings currently up 5 per cent for Aussies. The most popular trips are Vietnam Family Holiday, Borneo Family Holiday and Japan Family Holiday but interestingly, the biggest jump in bookings for Central Australia & Uluru Family Holiday (3823%).<\/p>\n

Mitchell added that Intrepid\u2019s NPS finished ahead of target at 83 despite the volume of travellers.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
