Discover Travel Group’s Gill Gaspar on being a destination expert: Travel Weekly TV
Edited by Travel Weekly


    This week on Travel Weekly TV Gill Gaspar, the director at the Discover Travel Group joins Hoda on the couch to talk all things Portugal, Spain, Morocco and the Camino walk.

    Discover Travel Group are experts in this part of the world, sticking to a geographic area they know and love, meaning agents can be sure of a personalised, authentic and budget matched holiday for clients!

    Gasper and his team spent most of their time working on itineraries for people in Portugal, Spain and Morocco.

    “(We do) everything from private tours through Morocco to someone that has four nights in Barcelona but they want to do some cooking experiences or some small group or private tours and they want the itinerary pre-organised and planned with time to themselves but also certain things organised, semi-structured,” Gasper said.

    But what really rings true through our entire chat with Gasper is his passion for his job and this part of the world!

    “We just do our part of the world. We love our part of the world, we’re passionate about, it we know a lot about it.”

    And we even got a scoop about some upcoming food and wine tours exclusive to Discover Travel Group!

    Dive into this week’s episode below:
