Cox
& Kings recognises that we have social, cultural and environmental
responsibilities to respect the destinations we visit and the people
who live there. We believe that our holidays should benefit the local
people and their environments and we strive to ensure that the local
culture and communities form an integral part of our trips. We wish to
maximise the benefits of tourism to each destination, whilst minimising
the environmental impact whilst abroad.
Cox & Kings recently received a 3-star award for Responsible
Tourism from the Association of Independent Tour Operators (AITO). To
gain this highest possible status, companies must undertake a specific
project which contributes to the economy, culture or environment of a
destination. This was achieved specifically through our support for
Indian charity Magic Bus. We also support charities in a number of the
destinations we offer tours to, and are active supporters of Tour
Operators For Tigers (TOFT).
