Voyageurs du Monde in the UK

Founded in 1979 under the name Carrefour des Voyages, Voyageurs du Monde is the leading tailor-made travel company in France. Since 2017, they have also been Original Travel’s parent company. Our travel ethos is based on originality, experience and quality, with a focus on authentic cultural encounters, and our trips are curated by a team of 300 travel consultants. Each one specialises in one or more of the 120 destinations offered and is passionate about their part of the world. Whether they grew up, worked or travelled there, they have an intimate knowledge of their destinations and return once or twice a year to ensure they’re 100% up to date.

This large team of experts works across the brands’ various agencies, of which there are 13 in France, one in Brussels, two in Switzerland, two in Canada and one in the UK: Original Travel. The partnership between Voyageurs du Monde and Original Travel has advanced our service and destination expertise and allowed us to continue growing as a company.

Each of our trips, both at Voyageurs du Monde and Original Travel, is entirely tailor-made to the client’s needs and interests and comes with a whole portfolio of services, from pre-departure to in-country to the return home. In fact, many of the Original Services we offer originated from Voyageurs du Monde, including our clued-up local Concierges, fast-track airport services, 24-hour helpline and client travel app.

Like Original Travel, around 30% of Voyageurs du Monde’s trips are for families, and they pride themselves on being true family specialists. They strive to inspire the travellers of tomorrow and pass on the knowledge of how to travel in a sustainable, responsible way.

This sustainable travel ethos is a vision shared by both brands, and has been a huge focus for many years, since the creation of the Foundation Insolite Bâtisseur Philippe Romero in 2009 and the introduction of the 100% carbon absorption policy, which was first launched in 2018.
