About World Expeditions

Since operating our first trekking trip in Nepal in 1975, World Expeditions has earned an outstanding reputation as an innovator and world leader in quality, small group expedition-style active holidays. Offering ground-breaking itineraries escorted by expert local leaders, World Expeditions meticulously designs each trip to facilitate one-of-a-kind experiences in fascinating destinations, supporting true sustainability in protecting local communities, natural environments and wildlife.

From contributing to local economies and supporting renewable energy to offering carbon-neutral trips, World Expeditions' thoughtful travel engagement is stronger than ever. Our mission is to educate and empower travellers by building awareness of the fragility and importance of the world's natural environments and remote cultures.

By choosing lesser-visited destinations, World Expeditions contributes to sharing the benefits of tourism dollars with remote communities and better spreading tourism's positive and negative impacts on the destination. Our unrivalled range of exploratory treks to remote destinations, like the Great Himalaya Trail, is the perfect example. Partnering with local operators and hiring local guides and leaders sees travellers' dollars investing in local economies in areas receiving little income from the flourishing outdoor industry.
