Once-in-a-lifetime. Every day.
From hold-your-breath experiences, to small and unscripted moments of joy; our small group adventures create stories to tell for a lifetime…
Why travel with Discover the World?
Since launching in 1981 with only six tours in a four-page brochure, we’ve grown to offer over 500 trips; from classic ‘discovery’ group tours, solo traveller holidays and active family adventures, to walking holidays, cycling trips and even self-guided options. Choose from over 120 countries and explore cultures, landscapes, wildlife and communities from Asia to Africa, the Arctic to the Americas.
Expert itineraries and local guides
We create itineraries that will take you off the beaten track to fully experience the culture of each destination. We work with local guides who take the hassle out of your travel, whilst adding richness and spontaneous moments to every trip. So while we understand you want to see the defining sights of a country; we also know that it’s authentic travel experiences that really matter.
Hand-picked accommodation
We carefully select accommodation to balance comfort with location. That generally means you’ll stay in three-star accommodation with en suite facilities – you’ll only sleep in a tent if it’s the best way to see the stars. Look out for details on our trip pages which explain the accommodation grade of each trip.
Small group sizes
Our average group tour size is just 12; perfect for meeting new people and getting to the heart of our destinations. The minimum and maximum size of each trip is detailed on trip pages.
