Jacquie Burnside, general manager, emerging markets, Intrepid Travel, said, “We are delighted to be increasing our focus in India, a market with much untapped potential for soft adventure travel. We look forward to sharing our grassroots travel experiences with Indians looking to get off the beaten path and we are excited to partner with the Active Holiday Company whose signature Small Group Big Fun trips are the perfect fit for our travel style and philosophy.”
