Discova

𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗮𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗮𝗶 𝗯𝘆 𝗡𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁- 𝗟𝗮𝗱𝘆𝗯𝗼𝘆 𝗖𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗶𝗹𝗲𝗱 Discova has supported equality and inclusion since its inception. This has not only translated into more than 95% of our colleagues coming from the region where they were born and brought up but also ensured that the LGBTQI+ and other minority communities are treated with respect. Keeping the latter in mind, Discova Thailand is proud to present a new evening excursion that introduces visitors to the vibrant nightlife of Chiang Mai and the glamorous world of ladyboy performers and championing their life stories. https://hubs.ly/Q02N7lBl0 in gaining a better understanding. #ConsciousTravel #WorldofDifference #ChiangMai

Train travel reigns supreme. Fast or slow encounters with the locals are often best observed when following iron-clad roads. Whether with a more modern touch or grabbing onto the traditions of old, railroads bring forward something intangible. Sri Lanka is one of these refreshing and adventurous destinations—a 𝗦𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 from Kandy laurels preservation until Nuwara Eliya. And in between, many different rhythms and colours decorate the horizon. Discova’s 𝗡𝘂𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗮 𝗘𝗹𝗶𝘆𝗮 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗥𝗶𝗱𝗲 & 𝗧𝗲𝗮 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 has earned its place as something we have defined as a refreshing welcome to our world. https://hubs.ly/Q02Lpy9s0 #SignatureExperiences #WorldofDifference #SriLanka

Controlled and respecting the lands on which the forefathers raised horses, tending to the fertile lands, and respecting the deities and spirits to maintain that equilibrium, 𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗮 is unlike anything one may expect when slow travel and Indonesia are put into one sentence. Seclusion, controlled development that respects the lands it treads, and an aim to keep the upscale properties small yet highly personalised are leading to a noticeable trend. Discova Indonesia’s team expects a rise in Sumba requests for the coming seasons, making it the destination of choice for the discerning rest and respite seeker. https://hubs.ly/Q02JR1gN0 #Sumba #ConsciousTravel #WorldofDifference

The hues and reminders of Malaysia’s colonial era have long been one of the key attractions to the seaside town of Malacca. Home of the famous Red Church, the A Famosa Portuguese fortress, and its unique food culture surrounding Jonker Street. Just as the must-sees sites are included in this full-day touring option, so are the lesser-known parts, highlighting the vibrancy of Malacca and its mindful take on preserving its history and culture.

With care and commitment to practice what we preach, training is essential to our Discova DNA. The need to exceed expectations is to learn and gain new insights into the art of serving customers beyond the realm of the expected. Keeping that theme in mind, 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘃𝗮 𝗖𝗮𝗺𝗯𝗼𝗱𝗶𝗮 recently met with all our guides in Phnom Penh. Aside from role-playing scenarios and updating skills, the team took it upon themselves to explore the nooks and crannies of the capital by Vespa. Days of training and learning deserve to be rounded off with a good dose of fun. #ConsciousTravel #WorldofDifference #GuideAcademy

No other region in the world offers such a plethora of accommodation options for the secluded sanctuary seekers as our Asia does. Discova’s growing requests (and confirmations) for bringing as much as possible within the 4 walls of a fully kitted villa embraces new trends of making your “home far away from home’ more attuned for what clients are seeking out. With Indonesia and Thailand leading the way, more destinations waving the Discova flag are showing a surge in high-end, ground floor, and family-inclusive establishments. https://hubs.ly/Q02LpFng0 #ExclusiveStays #VillasinAsia #WorldofDifference
