Intrepid Travel Expands Range of Women’s Expeditions to Mark International Women’s Day<br />
New tours in Kenya, Nepal, India and Turkey will uncover the customs, food, challenges and lives of local women<br />
First three Women’s Expeditions launched in 2018 were one of the most popular ranges in Intrepid’s history, growing from four to 36 departures in a few months<br />
Intrepid Travel has introduced four<br />
Women’s Expeditions to mark<br />
International Women’s Day, giving<br />
female travellers an opportunity to learn<br />
about the everyday lives and challenges facing<br />
women around the world.<br />
The women-only tours, led by female<br />
guides, provide a unique insight into the<br />
lives of women in Kenya, India, Nepal and<br />
Turkey. <strong>Traveller</strong>s will meet people from all<br />
walks of life and hear their inspiring stories,<br />
from Becky, the first female overland truck<br />
driver in East Africa, to Syrian refugees forging<br />
a new life in Istanbul.<br />
These trips include experiences that would<br />
otherwise be off-limits on regular departures,<br />
such as swimming on a female-only<br />
beach in Antalya or celebrating the femaleonly<br />
Gangur Festival in Rajasthan.<br />
They build on the success of the original<br />
Women’s Expeditions in the Middle East,<br />
launched on International Women’s Day<br />
2018. The range has proven one of the most<br />
popular in Intrepid’s 30-year history, growing<br />
from just four departures to 36 in the<br />
space of a few months.<br />
Intrepid’s global product manager Jenny<br />
Gray said: “These new tours follow an<br />
incredible response to the launch of our first<br />
three Women’s Expeditions. The MeToo era<br />
is making its mark on travel - our female<br />
travellers want to hear the stories and struggles<br />
of women around the globe.”<br />
“This year we’ve discovered even more<br />
extraordinary stories of female empowerment.<br />
These remarkable new Expeditions<br />
give travellers the chance to hear from people<br />
from all walks of life about their personal<br />
and collective struggles and triumphs in<br />
achieving gender equality. They allow trav-
