Your vision, our expertise.

A private train carriage through Uzbekistan. A seven-day horseback ride across the Mongolian steppe. A family trek to Machu Picchu with your own guide. We build one-of-a-kind journeys for couples, families and private groups who want the trip on their own terms.

The Undiscovered essence

Where culture meets the wild.

We don't just take you to places. We take you to the heart of the unbeaten path — where tradition is still lived in, and every encounter is the real thing.

The Undiscovered difference

Why travel with Undiscovered Destinations?

Pioneering spirit

We specialise in places most operators have never heard of. We were among the first to run trips in Turkmenistan and Guinea-Bissau, and we are still there today.

Expert local knowledge

Our destination specialists have been running trips for 22 years. When you book, you speak to the person who will plan your itinerary — not a call-centre agent.

Maximum 12 travellers

Our group tours take no more than twelve. Small enough to eat in a local family home — large enough to share the wonder with like-minded travellers.

Guaranteed departures

Most of our tours are guaranteed to run from the moment you book. A small number of specialist tours need a minimum group size, and once a departure is marked Guaranteed, it runs.

Solo-friendly as standard

Around 60% of our group travellers come solo. Take a private single room, or share a twin with another solo traveller of the same gender.

What travellers say about us

“Have you been thinking of a Stans tour? The highlight of the Silk Road is Uzbekistan with its former oasis cities of Khiva, Buhkara and Samarkand. If you want to choose just one country, this is the one and Undiscovered Destinations offers an excellent 11 day tour. You will be greeted by friendly Uzbeks, modern infrastructure, charming accommodation and excellent Uzbek cuisine. The blue and turguoise tiled mosques, minarets and madrasas will dazzle. If the history, prime characters and place names confuse, just focus on what is before your eyes!”
