I have worked in travel my entire career with amazing brands such as British Airways, Virgin Holidays, and Kuoni but here at Discover the World we genuinely have a team that are destination specialists, curious and are always looking to explore new experiences for our customers, so they can see the world differently.
Our purpose and values are at the heart of everything we do. They set our course, guide and inspire us, enabling our brilliant team to create unforgettable memories for our customers and ensuring we continue to lead the way in delivering exceptional customer experiences.
We are passionate about responsible travel but it goes deeper than reducing a trip’s carbon footprint. There’s a lot to do. This is one journey we are fully committed to going on. We believe that all students should benefit from educational travel, whatever their background. That’s why a percentage of revenue from your holiday, goes into our Education Bursary Fund run in partnership with the Geographical Association, it means that at least 30 students who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity can join one of our school trips abroad to see first hand destinations like Iceland to help inspire them and genuinely make an impact on their lives and our environment.
