1. Signature Experiences
Thanks to Cox & Kings’ reputation, reach and worldwide connections, our clients have access to a number of exceptional experiences, revealing hidden wonders and cultural secrets. We specialise in taking travellers, in comfort, to places off-the-beaten-path and outside the realms of many other operators.
2. 265 years of expertise
Cox & Kings has been helping travellers explore and discover for 265 years. We have a family of travel specialists, who have all turned their passion for travel into a vocation. Between them, they have visited nearly every country on Earth and they are passionate about helping you find authentic experiences in far-flung places.
3. 24/7 emergency support
If events beyond our control affect your travel arrangements, we have a team of experts who will work quickly to rearrange your travel. In the recent COVID-19 crisis, our network of well-connected offices often knew about borders closing before any announcements from the FCDO, meaning Cox & Kings clients were repatriated swiftly, safely and at no additional cost to them.
4. Your money is protected
Cox & Kings is part of the Abercrombie & Kent family, and as such is financially strong as well as ABTA bonded and ATOL protected. We do not charge any additional fees for financial protection. When you book a holiday package with Cox & Kings, we are responsible for all aspects of your holiday under the European Package Regulations, meaning your holiday and the monies paid for that holiday are fully protected.
5. Genuinely small group tours
Unlike other operators, we keep our group tours small. With an average of just 14 guests, and a maximum of 18, a Cox & Kings group tour allows a more personalised and intimate touring experience than most. Of course, we can also create a private tour for just you and your family and friends if you wish.
6. Travel for solos
Travelling solo does not mean having to travel alone. We run dedicated Solo Travellers tours to some of our most popular destinations such as Peru, India, Sri Lanka and Costa Rica. You get all the freedom and flexibility of independent travel combined with the safety and security of travelling as part of a group and the chance to meet new like-minded friends.
7. Value for money
We believe that expert knowledge and excellent service should come as standard. It is also our policy to keep our prices as low as possible, contracting flights, hotels and ground services at highly competitive rates. However, we won’t scrimp on the luxuries and will include in the price the services and experiences we believe make for the best experience. We are confident that our holidays represent excellent value for money when the number and quality of services included are taken into account.
8. Award-winning service
Cox & Kings is an award-winning travel company, offering high quality group tours, private travel arrangements and tailor-made holidays to many of the world’s most fascinating regions. In the past five years we have won over 20 awards at the British Travel Awards, the UK’s largest travel awards programme determined solely by the number of votes received from the UK public.
9. Sustainable and responsible travel
We believe that tourism should be a force for good. As part of the Abercrombie & Kent family, we work with Abercrombie & Kent Philanthropy (AKP) who partner with more than 40 local grassroots projects that positively impact lives and livelihoods in the communities where our guests travel. We also use local tour guides on all our tours, making sure your money stays in destination. Simply by travelling with Cox & Kings you are helping to give back to the communities we visit.
10. Global network
We are a global brand. As part of the Abercrombie & Kent family we have more than 55 offices in over 30 countries. Over the years, Cox & Kings has also sought out and developed working relationships with the finest local agents on the ground. Our longstanding relationships with our suppliers ensures a seamless holiday experience with an unparalleled level of services and safety throughout your holiday.
11. Comprehensive options for travel insurance
We can put you in contact with our preferred insurance partner, Campbell Irvine, who cover for many COVID-19 situations. But please don’t just take our word for it – over 50% of our clients are repeat clients and we consistently hold a 4.5+ star rating on Trustpilot and we believe our client testimonials speak for themselves.
