Intrepid is starting in 2026 with a bang, rolling out its biggest Q1 travel advisor incentive ever alongside its highly anticipated New Year Sale. Designed to reward advisors during the industry’s busiest booking season, the incentive runs until February 13 and offers over $30,000 CAD in prizes, double the number of winners for USA and Canada advisors, and exclusive early access to top-selling trips. 

“We know January is one of the most important and demanding months for Canadian travel advisors. This incentive is our way of showing appreciation for their hard work,” said Caroline Tinsley, Head of Partnerships at Intrepid Travel. “We’re committed to providing advisors with meaningful rewards, valuable tools, and a genuine partnership that helps them succeed.”

For the first time, Intrepid is doubling the number of winners with separate weekly and grand prizes for USA and Canada advisors, giving more agents more opportunities to win while booking trips their clients already love. 

From January 8 to February 13, every confirmed booking brings advisors closer to winning one of over $30,000 CAD in prizes, including free Small Group Adventures. 

To enter, advisors need to lock in a new booking between January 8 and February 13. Bookings are confirmed once the deposit is paid.  Then track your progress on the leaderboard, shared regularly in the Intrepid Travel Advisor Community on Facebook. 

Grand prizes include: 

  • FOC Intrepid Tour to Peru up to $3500 CAD + Companion (or single supplement of equal value)  
  • FOC Short Break up to $3000 CAD  
  • FOC Premium Walking & Trekking up to $4000 CAD
