Cox & Kings is an award-winning travel company offering exceptional group tours and tailor-made holidays to the world’s most fascinating regions. We are proud to have received many accolades throughout our long history.
In 2024, we were honoured with seven British Travel Awards, including six silver awards across categories including ‘Middle East & North Africa’, ‘Southern Asia’, and ‘Tailor-Made Holidays’. These accolades reflect our unwavering commitment to delivering extraordinary travel experiences.
Previously, we were recognised as the Best Luxury Tour Operator at the Silver Travel Advisor Awards 2020 and awarded Gold as the Best Small Holiday Company to The Middle East at the 2019 British Travel Awards. We were especially delighted to have been named the Best Luxury Holiday Company in 2014, followed by five consecutive silver awards in the same category.
Winners of both the Silver Travel Advisor Awards and British Travel Awards are determined by public vote, so we are thrilled to be held in such high esteem by the people who travel with us. We strive to meet these high expectations, and to continue being the best at what we do.
