Featured Testimonials
Traveling with Marquis Discoveries is the exclusive perks that elevate the experience beyond a standard school trip. Our group is accompanied by Larry, an incredible tour guide whose deep knowledge and engaging storytelling bring history to life in a way that captivates students.
Additionally, the Capitol Pass to the House Chamber gives our group an insider’s look at our government in action. These special touches make the trip even more meaningful and unforgettable. As with any travel, unexpected changes can arise, but Marquis Discoveries seamlessly navigates these moments, ensuring a stress-free experience for both me and my students. Ken expertly balances historical and cultural experiences—including carefully selected restaurants—with fun activities like sporting events, creating a trip that is both educational and enjoyable for every student.
I truly cannot imagine traveling without Marquis Discoveries. In my mind, there is no better option than Ken and his team. This experience has brought new joy into my classroom, and the connections my students make on these trips will last a lifetime.
For my first time leading an international trip, I went with Marquis Discoveries to Brazil, and I am glad I did. Ken helped me every step of the way. It was an amazing experience and something I will always treasure.
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. It is not a cookie cutter trip and they will attempt to fit in those extras that make it special. My main requests for building the Brazil trip were seeing the wildlife and exploring Rio, which we did.
Marquis Discoveries went above and beyond and added in a walking/ swimming tour through 5 waterfalls and snorkeling down a clear river. I would highly recommend Marquis Discoveries for your travel needs.

We like to go on international cruises. Marquis has made the booking process easy and is always there to help while we are abroad.
We travel to Disneyland and Disneyworld at least once a year. Since using Marquis to organize our trip, we have been able to more thoroughly enjoy our time, as Marquis has taken care of every detail. We will never book a trip without Marquis again.

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.
