As we grew up, we learned that putting certain things in our mouths (like batteries) hurts, but others, kooky as they may be, are still worth the thrill. Particularly bugs. Something about that crunch....
Intrepid Travel supports explorers with a palette for the crunchy, the creamy and the bizarre. When traveling with Intrepid the only fast food you'll eat is the kind running off your plate. Intrepid’
Intrepid believes that travel isn't just about walking off the beaten path; it's about eating off it too. Every traveler to Italy has stories about the pasta, but not all travelers can chat about silk worms, camel burgers and tarantulas.
“I never knew that spiders made their way onto the Cambodian palette during the Khmer Rouge regime,” comments Intrepid Traveler Jeff Alexander, “Up to two million people were executed or died of starvation, and Cambodians turned to whatever sustenance they could find, including spiders, rats and lizards. The regime eventually came to an end, but spiders have remained a popular snack. I like mine with a little salt and pepper.”
Looking for true cultural adventure travel? If you'd be willing to sample kangaroo fillet, BBQ crocodile or turtle then give Intrepid’s real life experiences a try. Heck, nobody said you couldn't bring your tummy medicine - just be sure to leave your ego, preconceptions and prudence back home. They're not on the menu.
