Explore Destinations
The World Is Waiting
Why Explore the World?
Discovery is more than seeing a new place — it’s about understanding culture, context, and your place in the world. We believe global travel helps build:
- Empathy through cultural exchange
- Resilience through challenge
- Curiosity through exploration
- Independence through experience
Whether you’re 16 or 60, traveling in a group or with family, each discovery strengthens who you are.
Adventure With Assurance
We Plan for the Unexpected
So You Can Focus on the Journey. We take safety seriously. All MARQUIS international travelers are supported by layered safety systems that include:
- Consular Registration: All groups are registered with U.S. embassies and consulates in the countries they visit.
- Vetted Vendors: Every hotel, motorcoach, and local guide is personally vetted by our team.
- Group Support: Your Program Leader is trained in group management, with 24/7 support behind the scenes.
- Global Networks: Our emergency protocols connect with embassies, international insurance providers, and local authorities.
- Basic Travel Protection: Every group participant is automatically covered by basic protection for medical, cancellation, and emergency events. Additional coverage options are available.
Passports, Visas & Preparedness
Get Ready to Go Far
International travel requires a few extra steps, and we’ll walk you through each one. From securing your passport to helping with visas (when required), we provide:
- Guidance on document prep and deadlines
- Visa application support, including country-specific info
- Travel checklists, cultural etiquette guides, and packing advice
Your group is never left guessing. We believe preparation is empowerment.
The Power of Group Discovery
Why Travel Together?
Traveling with a group brings deeper connections, shared memories, and meaningful moments that wouldn’t happen alone. Whether you’re bonding over jet lag, discovering a hidden café, or singing on a long coach ride, the shared story becomes part of who you are.
Group travel also means:
- Shared support
- Built-in friendships
- Safety in numbers
- Easier logistics
- Confidence-building for new travelers

Oh we loved it. They treated us so well, felt like royalty with them. The ship was so comfortable and the service was unbelievable. We loved it so much

If you are going to use someone to help you plan a trip, I highly recommend Marquis Discoveries. We have traveled to over 60 countries and all throughout the U.S. and they did a better job than anyone we have previous used. My wife is in a power wheelchair and getting ground transportation is usually a major problem for us.
Not only did they accomplish this feat but it was on time . They got on our itinerary everything we wanted and coordinated it perfectly. A big thank you to Ken and Tracy for making our trip enjoyable and problem free.

The accommodations and experiences were above my expectations. We stayed on a ranch in the Pantanel and experienced the wildlife all around us. Every meal was surrounded by McCaws, Toucans, Parakeets, etc. In Rio we woke up to the Copacabana Beach on one side and Christ the Redeemer on the other side. It was breathtaking!
No trip is perfect so when the airlines messed up our flights, Ken was there to make sure the airline fixed it. He did not back down until it was corrected. I think one of the best things about going with Marquis Discoveries is that they customize the trip just for you.
The world is vast, and your journey is just beginning.
Start by choosing a destination and let us take care of the rest.
