"As we celebrate International Women's Day,' it is critical to acknowledge the invaluable contributions of women in shaping the tourism industry. Their leadership, creativity, and dedication have transformed the sector while also fostering an inclusive and diverse culture. Today, we celebrate their resilience and vision, recognising that true progress is achieved by embracing each individual's unique perspectives and talents. Let us continue to advocate for gender equality, encourage women to excel in their roles, and foster an environment in which everyone, regardless of gender, feels valued and respected. Intrepid Travel not only advocates for women's inclusion but also implements it to the fullest. This is evident from Intrepid Travel's step towards enhancing gender diversity in tour leadership. We are working assiduously towards achieving balanced female tour leaders. Together, we can inspire inclusion and create a more equitable and prosperous future for the tourism industry and beyond. Our focus is on inclusion, thereby making Intrepid Travel the first to take this step of hiring female tour guides."
