One of the UK’s leading independent specialist holiday companies, Discover the World has been creating inspirational tailor made holidays to Iceland, Scandinavia, Canada, Alaska, the Polar Regions, New Zealand, Australia and beyond for 39 years. 

We are passionate about every destination we feature, from a short weekend break to see the northern lights in Scandinavia, to epic self-drives off the beaten track in Iceland or New Zealand, expedition voyages around the Polar regions or wildlife encounters in Canada and Alaska. Our collection of imaginative holidays includes thrilling winter breaks and laid back summer adventures.

There’s nothing like first-hand experience and our Travel Specialists have it in bucket loads. We guide client's through every stage of holiday planning, sharing experiences and helping our clients choose between the different options available and more often than not, tailor making our trips to individual requirements. 

“We're based in Surrey and have recently relocated from Banstead to Dorking. Clients are always welcome to come and visit, talk about their holiday plans and get expert recommendations. Our team of Travel Specialists are passionate about their destinations and love any opportunity to chat about them!” Dawn Evans, Head of Sales
