Intrepid Colombo celebrates a decade of building the best travel company for the world

Intrepid Travel is a global tour operator, providing sustainable experience-rich travel on all seven continents. The business was established in Melbourne, Australia in 1989 and has experienced global growth over the past 33 years.

The Colombo office was originally established in October 2012 as a provider of IT development services to the Intrepid Group with a team of just 5 members. Today this has evolved as a center of excellence for services within the company with a growing 170-plus team, providing financial, customer, and HR services as well as support services for back-office travel related processes for Intrepid’s global offices, in addition to also being a Destination Management Company (DMC) to operate trips for Intrepid and other leading travel brands.

Intrepid Travel is a purpose-led brand, which means it strives to make a positive impact in and beyond its business. In line with this, during the week of the celebration, Intrepid Colombo initiated and organized a blood donation campaign and saw many of its colleagues coming together for this timely cause.

Amidst the numerous challenges here at home and the recent unprecedented global pandemic disrupting and bringing the travel industry to a standstill, Intrepid Colombo has exhibited a tremendous amount of resilience, and continues to grow in leaps and bounds driven by its mission to create positive change through the joy of travel, with various career opportunities opening up especially in its Technology & Customer service divisions.

“We’ve reached this decade milestone, and we celebrate this with all our amazing and talented colleagues whose commitment is a testament to where we are today. We are only growing stronger,” said Anu Karunatilaka, Intrepid’s Managing Director, Asia.

Intrepid Colombo has built a strong workplace culture over the decade, which deeply embeds an inclusive approach where hard work and fun is supported. This is reflected in the company achieving the Great Place to Work Certification™ during May this year.

Employees can opt-in for flexible work schedules including a ‘four-week work-from-anywhere’ option, one free tour per year – plus five additional days leave to self-experience trips and explore the world. Team members also receive generous travel discounts for friends and family, salaries pegged to the Australian dollar and two weeks paid parental leave for new parents among others. Employees can also access their Employee Assistance Program and various project or cause related volunteering activities.

Very recently, Intrepid Colombo also made it to the list of top 15 Best Workplaces for Women. The Women’s Expedition with Intrepid initiative has garnered high interest and involvement among colleagues, with the view of recognizing and championing their roles from the leadership to the front line, to empower, enlighten and energize.

Intrepid is a certified Benefit Corporation (B Corp), independently verified to have the highest environmental, social and governance standards, balancing profit with purpose.

Where You'll Stay

Operated by intrepid travel.

Back in 1989, two guys from Melbourne, Australia by the names of Darrell and Manch set off on an adventure to the other side of the world. They travelled to Africa and without air conditioning on their modified truck, they filled it with supplies, some beer, a bunch of aviator sunglasses, and some friends. On that trip, they came up with the idea that perhaps others may be interested in this style of travel too. Just like that, Intrepid was born. Intrepid has come a long way since then, now giving over 100,000 travelers a year the opportunity to experience small group travel across all 7 continents. They use local transport, sleep in local accommodation from Cambodian stilt houses to Moroccan riads, and employ 100% local leaders. With three different travel styles including basix, original and comfort, themes ranging from cycling trips to family holidays, and itineraries crafted with the perfect balance of must-see sights and free time, Intrepid caters to every type of traveller no matter their age, budget or travel style. The company has grown but their mission remains the same: to change the way people see the world through sustainable, experience-rich travel
