Life at Intra

Every year, we travel together.

Our motivation trips bring the whole team on the road: new places, long tables and plenty of laughter. They are also our best training, because the best way to recommend a destination is to have walked it yourself.

Why we travel

A team trip that is also a classroom.

Our colleagues plan journeys for travellers from all over the world. Once a year, we become the travellers. We visit hotels, restaurants, sights and routes together, meet local partners and come back with first-hand knowledge we share with our clients.

01

Motivation

Time together outside the office, with every department on the same bus.

02

Training on the ground

Hotels, venues, guides and timings seen in person, not only on paper.

03

Better advice

We recommend places we know, and our clients feel the difference.

Our travel journal

Chapters of the road.

2026

9–11 Oct · Gaziantep, Halfeti & Nemrut

Flavours, mosaics and ancient gods.

The coppersmiths and kitchens of Gaziantep, the Zeugma Mosaic Museum, sunset on the Euphrates at Halfeti, ancient Perre and the great statues of Mount Nemrut.

On the ground: the gastronomy and archaeology route behind our Mesopotamia programmes.

2026

10–11 Jan · Bursa & İznik

Where the Ottoman story began.

The Green Tomb, the Grand Mosque, Koza Han and the village of Cumalıkızık in Bursa, then İznik with its Hagia Sophia and the Basilica of St Neophytos by the lake, and a gala dinner to close the weekend.

On the ground: a weekend route from Istanbul that we can now plan in detail.

2025

31 Oct – 2 Nov · Trabzon & the Black Sea

Monasteries, mountains and a lake.

Sümela Monastery clinging to its cliff, the Atatürk Mansion, Trabzon's Hagia Sophia and the green slopes of Uzungöl, with Black Sea flavours at every stop.

On the ground: mountain roads, timings and restaurants for our Black Sea programmes.

2023

Cappadocia

Up in the air, then into the valleys.

We flew in together and spent our days around Göreme, among fairy chimneys, viewpoints and cave dwellings, in the region our guests love most.

On the ground: the landscapes and stops we build into every Cappadocia programme.

2022

Mardin & the East

Stone, sunsets and long tables.

Honey-coloured houses above the Mesopotamian plain, the Deyrulzafaran Monastery and the domes of the Zinciriye Madrasa, followed by the flavours of Mardin and Diyarbakır.

On the ground: sights, restaurants and routes of Upper Mesopotamia, experienced first-hand.

From our archive

Where it all began.

Our early agency, our coaches, travel fairs and the people who helped build Intra.

“Many tourism professionals who grew with Intra are today shaping the sector in companies across Türkiye. Learning together has always been part of who we are.”
