ABOUT DISCOVERY TRAVEL HOLIDAYS LIMITED

Discovery Travel Holidays Ltd was established in 1996 by two good friends and former army officers, Jeremy Kemp and Alan Robertshaw. The company was one of the first to offer self-guided walking packages in the UK and developed a reputation for offering a personal service and an adaptability to customers’ needs – an ethos that remains to this day.

Over the 20 or so years since it began, Discovery Travel has planned and delivered thousands of holidays in the UK, developing extensive knowledge of routes and close working relationships with accommodation providers and suppliers. Rigorous planning and an attention to detail means many customers come back year after year for their walking holidays.

In 2016 and after two decades at the helm, Alan decided that fresh ownership was required to keep Discovery Travel moving forward. The business was taken over by husband and wife team Will and Pam Ainslie. Happily, Alan agreed to stay on with the company in a consultancy capacity and continues to advise and share his knowledge to this day.

Will’s background in sustainable travel, tourism and event management has equipped him with the skills and knowledge to develop high quality walking holiday itineraries. Pamela’s roles as a senior PA and business administrator provide the underpinning for a smooth operation. Both share a love of exploring the UK’s beautiful countryside on foot and adventuring in general – something that running Discovery Travel is providing even more opportunity to do.

For the past fifteen years Discovery Travel has successfully provided self guided walking and cycling holidays for the independent-minded traveller. Our holidays are designed so that you feel you have been truly immersed in the local culture and community of your chosen destination, whether that’s at home in the UK or further afield in Europe.

Although emergency support is rarely needed, we can assure you that we are always contactable by telephone to help with any difficulties.

Every accommodation we use, be it a Guest House, Country Inn, Hotel or Chateau, is individually picked by our team to provide a high level of service and to reflect the local culture.

Whether you contact us by email or telephone, our friendly, helpful staff are on hand to provide you with all the information you need to select the right holiday for you. We also try to meet or speak in person to most of our customers at some stage of their UK holiday.
