World Journeys is a boutique travel company designing tailor-made travel and small group hosted journeys for the discerning traveller. Specialising in some of the world’s most exciting destinations, they use their years of personal experience and expert knowledge to craft travel that goes beyond the norm. Their small group hosted journeys travel with just 18 guests and a host throughout. This is travel with personality.
“Travelling to some of the world’s most exciting and sometimes challenging countries is all the more achievable in a small group of like-minded people. We find people love the conviviality of group travel; there’s company if desired, but also time to explore alone, and every person brings something to the mix."
