Intrepid Travel will host its largest ever in-person training event, as it will take 60 UK agents to Morocco (September 4-7).
With support from the Moroccan National Tourist Office (MNTO), the tour operator will showcase small-group adventures while offering immersive training about its positive impact and how to sell responsible travel.
Agents will join one of four tailored itineraries which will feature Marrakech, Casablanca, Ouirgane in the Atlas Mountains, the Agafay desert, and Essaouira.
The experience will culminate in a summit day on September 6, including presentations from the MNTO and Intrepid’s local team and partners.
The summit ends with a rooftop event at Intrepid’s new riad in Marrakech, part of the brand’s growing accommodation offering under its Stay Intrepid portfolio.
Agents can earn their place by selling Intrepid holidays, demonstrating outstanding customer service, or contributing positively to their local communities.

Carrie Grant, Intrepid’s head of trade partnerships for the UK & Ireland, said: “This is something really special. We didn’t want to create just another trip – we wanted to create an experience that people feel a part of.
“We’re bringing together 60 brilliant agents not just to learn about what we do, but to connect with local communities, see the real impact of travel, and come home as true advocates for purpose-led travel.
“Tourism is an incredible force for good, and this summit helps us maximise that impact while also getting together for a celebration on National Travel Agents’ Day.
“It’s going to be energising, inspiring, and a lot of fun and I genuinely can’t wait to welcome everyone to Morocco.”
Intrepid is offering four ways to win a spot on this first-of-its-kind trip.
Agents can earn their place in Morocco by selling Intrepid holidays, showcasing outstanding customer service, raising funds for charity, or supporting their local communities by volunteering or supporting local businesses during the competition period.
Summit participants will also be invited to make a £25 donation to the Intrepid Foundation, supporting the community projects they will experience in Morocco.
