why cazenove+loyd
Eight reasons to travel with us
1) Truly tailor made
We start with a blank sheet of paper. No set date departures. No pre-determined routes. No big blocks of hotel allocations to offload onto unsuspecting clients.
We are about matching our knowledge, creative thinking, contacts on the ground and logistical expertise to your expectations and to the time and budget that you have in mind.
2) Current and first hand knowledge in three regions of the world
We focus on just three geographic regions. Central+South America, Africa+Indian Ocean, South+South East Asia.
This means that you are looked after by a destination expert dedicated to getting the best out of their particular part of the world.
Our three teams travel extensively and even when not travelling speak day in day out with the people we know and trust on the ground in each region.
And because we talk to most of our clients at length on their return from a holiday we have constant feedback on the choices and decisions we have made.
We are constantly refining what we do … we know that we are only as good as the last holiday we have planned.
3) Added value
We understand the detail of each destination. So we know how best to use your time and your money. From the moment you speak to us until the moment you return, a dedicated destination expert is working to get more out of every hour of every day. Usually without you knowing it.
And we can make pretty much anything happen … that's what we do.
4) Financial protection
Your money is safe.
We are fully bonded with the Civil Aviation Authority (ATOL no: 3208). This means that the money you spend with us and the holiday you book with us is not at risk in case of business failure.
Particularly in the regions where we operate and in times of economic uncertainty, travelling with an established and fully bonded tour operator is absolutely fundamental.
ATOL (The Civil Aviation Authority) protects you from losing your money or being stranded abroad. It does this by carrying out checks on the tour operators and travel organisers it licenses, and requiring them to take part in a financial guarantee scheme managed by the Air Travel Trust (ATT) which provides the funds to protect customers should a firm fail. If a tour operator goes out of business, the CAA will ensure you do not lose the money you paid or if you're abroad, they will arrange for you to finish your holiday and fly home. Cazenove + Loyd’s ATOL number is 3208.
5) Peace of mind
We have been operating at the highest level of the market for the most discerning (and demanding) clients in the world for almost 20 years.
Someone is on hand in the UK and in the destination 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
If we can’t sort something out, no-one can.
6) Award winning and loved by our clients
Voted Favourite Specialist Tour Operator in Conde Nast Traveller’s readers awards in 2007 and in the Top 5 ever since. We are recognised as an industry leader in our very specific niche.
Most of our business, however, still arrives through personal recommendation. This is our most important measure of success.
We hope it always will be.
7) We make it easy
Making it happen in challenging parts of the world is what we do. All day. Every day.
And we do it with people who we have worked with for years and who rely on our repeat business. We also do it with the fore-knowledge of the potential pitfalls for the unsuspecting.
8) Owner run
We care. We are still an owner run business with two partners involved on a day to day basis. We are as passionate about being the best as we were when we opened our doors.
And the owners, Henrietta Loyd and Christopher Wilmot-Sitwell always want to hear from you: Click on image to know more but best of all, give us a call in our London office on 020 7384 2332.
And if you want to travel to a region where we do not have expertise, we may not always be the best people to help but we will almost certainly know who is..........
