Accommodation
Securing accommodation in Italy might be, surprisingly, the trickiest part of planning your journey. Most hotels are already booked for Games officials, sponsors, and supporters. World of Discoveries is happy to inform you that we have secured access to accommodation across key locations to guarantee your attendance at the world's biggest winter sporting event. We have handpicked the best-rated and well-located hotels with a wonderful set of amenities to enhance your travel experience. Whether you stay in the elegant alpine resort of Cortina d'Ampezzo, the scenic town of Bormio, or the luxurious St. Moritz, Switzerland — perfectly positioned less than an hour drive for attending the events in Livigno, or the picturesque Val di Fiemme — you can be assured of comfort and convenience throughout your stay. Some of the most important Winter Games events will take place in Livigno — but there’s a thing: all accommodations in the area have already been fully booked by officials, athletes, and Winter Games partners. And here's the kicker: there are no 5-star hotels in the region at all. That’s why we’re offering a truly exceptional alternative: stay in the iconic luxury resort of St. Moritz, Switzerland. While enjoying world-class comfort and amenities, you’ll also benefit from our exclusive daily transfer service to all events in Livigno. Our dedicated fleet and on-the-ground team will ensure smooth, stress-free necessary travel and guidance to each venue. Experience the Winter Games in elegance — without compromising on comfort or convenience.

Australia - World Cup 2022, Qatar

I am a Sydney-based journalist who travelled to the 2018 World Cup with World of Discoveries. Following is my review of that fabulous experience ... What a trip ... the World Cup, five cities, amazing camaraderie, and great tour leadership against the background of one of the globe’s most amazing countries ... Russia. My World Cup tour with World of Discoveries was one of the great experiences of my travel life. The World of Discoveries team provided a wonderful platform with an itinerary both practical and flexible. The local tours in each of the venue cities - Moscow, Kazan, Samara, Sochi and St Petersburg were informative and, importantly, fun. Considering the accommodation pressures created by the huge influx of Cup tourists, the hotels selected by World of Discoveries were more than adequate. Special mention goes to the Grand Hotel Tchaikovsky In St Petersburg. The tour leadership provided by the company was both expert and considerate. Importantly each traveller’s individual enjoyment and safety appeared to be the paramount consideration. This World Cup holiday was meant to be a “once-in-a-lifetime” experience for me but I am now planning for the next Cup. Bring on 2022 in Qatar

USA - World Cup 2022

Do not hesitate to book, World of Discoveries comes through! This was my very first time using a travel agency to book any sort of trip. And this being not just any ordinary trip, but a World Cup experience, I was a bit hesitant. Many doubts on my mind. Would they come through with the match tickets, airline tickets, transfers, booking of hotels, will there someone there available for the hotel transfers or just to answer a question I have at anytime during the trip? World of Discoveries came through like CHAMPS! All my airline tickets, match tickets and hotel reservations were taken care of. There was always someone at the airport or hotel ready to greet me for transfers. There was always more than one person available via telephone or a text message away. They really did an excellent job at organizing everything. It was a worry-free experience with them. Special shout-out to Irena who was our manager based in Dubai. She always made sure we were taken care of and even hosted special events for us. I am glad I chose them for my World Cup experience and would not hesitate to use them again. Excellent service!

A huge thank you to Varya and the team for making our World Of Discoveries Tour for 2018 World Cup amazing! They made every moment count with organised tours, accommodation and socialising. A great bunch of people to travel with. Even went extra mile and managed to secure a ticket we were missing for one game. Was wonderfully a little surprised at the detail the tour operators covered in making our trip incredible! I would highly recommend this company!

I can't wait for Qatar with World of Discoveries. I went to the Russia World Cup with them in 2018 and loved it. It was really well planned with all the transfers and tickets and our tour guides were fantastic, they went above and beyond to make sure we all had a great time which isn't always easy with so many people and different nationalities, but the social events, sightseeing and activities were so much fun. If you want to enjoy your time in Qatar come and join us!
