Our difference

We’re on a mission to put people at the heart of travel. How? Well, it’s threefold, firstly there’s you. We like to get to know you, not simply where you want to go, and why. But what is the motivation behind your trip.  Is it to celebrate a birthday, perhaps you want to spend some quality time as a family or you’re looking to explore a passion in a new setting? By understanding you and your needs, our Destination Experts can ensure your tailor-made holiday exceeds your expectations. Secondly, we believe that it is the people that make a trip.

As is often the case, it is who you know, not what you know that can really add value. Thanks to the special friendships we have nurtured we can arrange the most inspiring guides, often they are specialists in their field and guide for our clients on request. Lastly, we hand-pick our partners around the world who are deeply rooted in the community and share our ethos of responsible, positive-impact slow travel. With cazenove+loyd another world is unlocked.

10 reasons to choose c+l as your luxury travel planner

1. We only choose what is right for you

We have no vested interest in where we send you or which hotels, lodges or boats you choose. We only want what is best for you. As a boutique travel company, we believe that the most effective way of having a positive impact is to work with individuals who share our values. In that respect, we tend to prefer locally owned, small-scale lodges and hotels that reflect the personality of a place.

2. You will be guided by knowledge

Each of our luxury travel experts has travelled extensively (and often lived) in the regions that they specialise in. This means you’ll get in-depth firsthand knowledge and recommendations you can trust. This is paired with securing exceptional guides who will introduce you to the country, allowing you to see the real soul of the place you are visiting.

For each and every one of the places at which you arranged for us to stay, please accept my unreserved congratulations and hearty thanks. Each one of them was extraordinary in its own particular and memorable way.

Charles Pettit, Client

3. It’s all about flipping the script

It is natural that you may want to visit the well-known ‘highlights’ of a destination – and rightly so. We spend time ensuring that you’ll see these wonders of the world in a new way, away from the crowds. We can arrange cycling to the lesser-known temples of Angkor or a private sunrise breakfast on a quiet, grassy bank overlooking the Taj Mahal.

Our trip to Japan was spectacular, thanks to the meticulous and discerning planning of cazenove+loyd . Everything worked like clockwork, and we felt very well taken care of throughout our two week journey.

4. With cazenove+loyd every moment matters

From sunrise to sunset, your expert is on hand to make sure that each day on your tailor-made holiday is nothing short of incredible. This means seeing a dramatic river crossing in Tanzania from exactly the right vantage point without any other vehicles around. It means sitting on the right side of the plane for the best views over the Himalayas. It means securing reservations at Tokyo’s most exclusive restaurants. It means that a favourite drink is available throughout a mobile expedition in Botswana, even in the most remote areas. It means never having to compromise.

5. Our private access + personal connections

It is often who you know, not what you know – and due to the special friendships, we have built up over the years, we have unprecedented access to some truly inspiring people and places. We have exclusive entry to private properties and extraordinary experiences that money alone can’t buy and can open doors that others simply cannot.

6. We believe in educational and mind-expanding travel

We tailor a client’s journey so that it is full of things that they are passionate about. Whether you have a particular interest in food, history, politics, wildlife, art or music, we can create a custom travel itinerary that explores your greatest loves in a considered and enlightening way.

They were polite but firm about what was appropriate and how long we should stay at each destination and, of course, they were spot on. Never too long or short.

7. The importance of philanthropy

We work in some of the most ecologically and culturally sensitive parts of the world, so are always conscious of operating in a way which has a positive impact on both the environment and the people.

Tourism is our livelihood and the livelihood of those we work with in our regions. Therefore, it is our responsibility to promote sustainable development in tourism. As an independent luxury travel company, we believe that the best way to have a positive impact is to work with individuals who share our commitment. Like the locally owned, small-scale lodges and hotels which we tend to favour, we also seek out charities that affect tangible change through small, local projects.

If you are interested, we are keen to help you get involved in local conservation efforts on your tailor-made holiday. Whether it be whale counting in Antarctica or rhino relocation in Kenya, you will leave knowing your actions have made a difference.

I was so at peace when I got back to work that several clients thought I had had a face-lift.

8. Meaningful travel is possible

At cazenove+loyd, we can help you trace your ancestors and connect with your family’s past. We are perfectly placed to delve into a family’s heritage and can access records and illuminating documents that open up a history that may have been forgotten.

Recently, we helped a family retrace their grandfather’s footsteps in Nepal, where he had served in the 9th Gurkha Rifles. We arranged a surprise family dinner with members of his old regiment, who brought photos of him with them.

9. Our thoughtful acts of expertise

A cazenove+loyd holiday creates precious memories. We are tireless in our pursuit of the best. Therefore, the trips we design always include personal touches – sometimes a surprise, sometimes not – that cater to your interests and likes. This added value can only be crafted by our experts due to the special relationship we build with you. They are not dictated by cost but by priceless acts that enhance a trip and convey that we have understood you.

Once, for example, we arranged for Father Christmas to visit a young family concerned they would be forgotten at a chimneyless tented camp in India. We also surprised an artistic client with watercolour paints and an easel planted in particularly stunning points in the desert in Wadi Rum, so that she could paint throughout her journey.

I highly recommend cazenove+loyd due to their impeccable service and attention to detail. I felt incredibly lucky to have had the inside track to Jordan and visit many places with special privileges such as the Kings Horses stables.

Maryana Greenberg, Client

10. There are boundless possibilities

Your Destination Expert will develop a nuanced understanding of exactly what you want and create a tailored itinerary with those special touches included, ensuring every second is spectacular. Don’t be afraid to ask, as truly, anything is possible with cazenove+loyd.

We cannot thank cazenove+loyd enough for everything they did to organise our honeymoon. It really was a once in a lifetime trip and doing it with c+l made all the difference.
