Adventure On As we emerge from the pandemic, how to responsibly resume travel – from a health and safety standpoint and with an eye toward its impact on destinations – is on many people’s minds. One solution: small-group-tour leader ep T ve ’s new slate of high-end itineraries, which debuts next January. Capped at 16 travelers per group, the journeys feature real moments to connect with locals – dinner with a Zoroastrian family in Iran or a wildlife ranger in Uganda, cooking lessons in Sri Lanka and Morocco, a private museum tour and classical music concert in Saint Petersburg, a boat outing off Lastovo Island to help a Croatian fisherman pull in the day’s catch. In all, travelers can choose from 70-plus trips in more than 40 countries throughout Africa, Asia, Central and South America, and Europe, which, like all Intrepid tours, are 100 percent carbon offset and focus on directly benefiting local communities.
