About us
Intrepid Urban Adventures is a travel experience for those who want to get off the beaten path and really connect with a destination. The experience can be as short as a couple of hours, or a whole day, but in every case our Urban Adventures tours take travellers to interesting places to meet locals and really see what makes a place tick.
Urban Adventure tours are designed to give travellers a unique insight into the destination, as well as to support local communities, cultures, and environments. Urban Adventures are fun, insightful, and truly a Best. Day. Ever. travel experience. We market our tours both regionally and globally.
We are part of Intrepid Travel, a leading experiential tour company.

Who is an Ideal Agent?
Urban Adventures promotes responsible local travel. We seek to work with partners who have our shared values and similar demographics:
Shared values - We are into win-win partnerships and want to work with organisations that share our mission to build a sustainable tourism industry. We believe this will protect and enhance our brand - as well as that of our partners - over time.
Similar demographics - We market to the independent traveller market, with an emphasis on those who want to truly explore a city, away from the tourist sites. These travellers include those interested in cultural tourism, culinary tourism, eco-tourism, agro tourism, heritage tourism, adventure tourism, geotourism, volunteer tourism, and responsible travel. In short, they want to authentically connect with the people, culture, and places in the country where they are travelling.

We offer the following payment options with Urban Adventures:
- Credit Card - Client's Card. You pay for the booking using the traveller's own credit card; in such cases the full retail price will be charged.
- Credit Card - Agent/Corporate Card. You pay for the booking using your credit card (i.e., a card belonging to you or your agency); in this case only your net rate (retail minus commission agreed) will be billed.
Important Note: The full retail price will be charged if the option "Credit Card - Client's Card" is selected, and the commission remitted to you in the month that your commission level has reached a minimum of $150. If the option "Credit Card - Agent/Corporate Card" is selected, the agent net rate will be charged to the card (i.e., retail minus your commission), so no remittance is required.

In the event you would like to go "On statement" and be invoiced once a month for your bookings, this must be pre-approved by Urban Adventures Limited. Please email agent@urbanadventures.com to make this arrangement.
