USA - Paris Summer Games 2024

Booked our trip to the Paris 2024 Olympics with World of Discoveries and have been exceptionally pleased with the experience and customer service. WOD created a a customized pre-trip excursion to Normandy for tours of the D-Day Beaches and Mont St Michel, as well as a week-long stay in Paris for the games, and drivers/transportation arranged for all our transfers. When our original hotel was bought out by one of the Olympics delegations, WOD seamlessly booked us at another (upgraded) location with no issues. Communication was easy and effective by email, and our in-country representatives during the games were proactively in touch regarding transfer information or to help answer questions. I had not used WOD prior to this experience, but will definitely do so for our next big adventure!

Australia - World Cup 2022, Qatar

I recently toured Qatar during the World Cup with Varya and Mike’s team at World of Discoveries. The experience over three weeks was first class. Varya and her team nailed the detail for every aspect of the trip from planning and booking through to the actual travel, tours, sightseeing, transport, accommodation and ticketing to games. They were always accessible to deal with any issues that arose and went the extra mile to ensure the travelling group was happy, organised and safe. And they throw a mean party. I would not hesitate to recommend World of Discoveries for trips of a lifetime.

Australia - 2024 Euro

Not only the Euro 2024 final game but the whole trip was amazing, the team at World of Discoveries did an amazing job looking after every detail making it 100% trouble free, they were totally committed to making it the best experience possible Thanking you from the bottom of my heart. Many thanks again Lina and Barbara you have been very professional to deal with and 100% will be hoping to work with you again.
Terry O'Connell
EURO 2024

Great trip all round. I booked not knowing what I was going to get, a little sceptical and apprehensive due to never using these guys before. I could not have been more wrong — the service has been great and the tour has also been great. Mike the tour guide and the girls in the office are 5 star. I even had a disaster and left my passports in the hotel safe in one city, and Mike and the team could not do enough to help me get them back. Really appreciate your professionalism and kindness. Will see you at the next international football event?

WC 2022

The World of Discoveries team made organising a complex football holiday in Qatar a breeze. My initial contact, Michael, managed to bring the cost of the trip in line with my budget, where other travel agents said it would be impossible. On the ground, we had a great experience on the desert tour and generally had a fantastic time. Thank you.
Sandy Zheng
WC 2022

We had a very awesome experience and a good time. We will continue to travel with you to the next international football event. Keep in touch. All the best to all of you.
