Our Discovery trips do what they say on the tin. A regular vacation might limit you to one or two locations, whereas our Discovery trips transport you through an entire region, or two! Watch the landscapes transform, the cultures change from town to town, and the dishes evolve as the miles go by. 

Drive & Hike 

Our Drive and Hike trips take you on a road trip through dramatic plains and picturesque country lanes to remarkable locations. Park up and navigate loop trails, passing golden beaches of Scotland’s northern reaches, Icelandic waterfalls and other-worldly ruins and formations in Ireland. 

Rail & Hike 

With our Rail and Hike trips, you can hop on and watch incredible views of glaciers and vast lochs go by as the train trundles towards your next destination. Hop off to hike sections of fjords, rural Highland routes and Swiss valleys. Each portion of the trip ends in another charming and characterful accommodation. 

Self-Drive 

Take the wheel and explore at your own speed on our Self-Drive trips. Pass sloping ravines, weave round rolling hills and cruise tree-lined country roads. It's up to you what you do and when you stop. While there’s no set hiking itinerary, we recommend what’s worth a visit. Enjoy a distillery tour, head to a castle or explore nature. 

Independent Travel at Your Own Pace 

Because you’re not part of a group, you can vacation your way. It’s all about having the freedom and flexibility to see the best of a region and make it as active as you like, at the pace you like. Fill it with historic discoveries, cultural exploration and invigorating hikes, or simply enjoy the ride and views that roll past your window. 

Broaden Your Horizons 

Our Discovery trips allow you to cover more miles without compromise. Stop off at the sites that pique your interest and pass the ones that don’t. Stretch your legs on one of the many trails and loop hikes or indulge in some local flavors. These trips are still filled with vast history, diverse nature and intriguing cultures – you'll just get to experience more of it in one go!
