Cox & Kings Anmeldelser 

Overall, an excellent trip. Our tour guide, Mario, was brilliant. He really looked after us and went above and beyond. Heavy touring schedule; lots of walking, lots of coach travel (thanks also to our driver). The first hotel was great. The second hotel, not so much, which was very disappointing. In terms of what you see v value for money = outstanding.

I could speak to someone who gave me her name and discussed the holiday before I booked. Later I had a query and how nice it was to ask for the person who could answer my question immediately.

We've just come back from an amazing trip to Uzbekistan and Tajikistan including driving the Pamir Highway organised by Ovidiu David at Cox & Kings. Ovidiu was helpful, professional and dealt with all our requirements (and many changes!) with skill and patience.

Booking was smooth and well informed. Timescales and promises met

Cox and Kings offer a reliable and trusted service at good value

Excellent holiday staying in lovely hotel with glorious views and good choice of food and bars. Very good professional tour guides on a well organised holiday. Would recommend and use again

We had an amazing time in Peru, a definite 10 !!

The guide Francisco was amazing and nothing was too much trouble. The accommodation was excellent and the trips were well
organised and great local guides .

The train journey was amazing and had delicious food . The tasting evening was an awesome experience.

There were so many highlights 😄

We had a great group and the size of 14 was perfect . The transport was very comfortable .

It has been my daughter's long cherished dream to visit part of the Silk Road and especially the fabled cities of Samarkand, Khiva and Bukhara. Our tour in May of this year was organised by Cox & Kings. From our first contact to the last all went perfectly smooth. Transport, accommodation, tour guides and above all our visits to memorable, stunning monuments and places exceeded our expectations. It was a breath taking experience never to be forgotten. Uzbekistan is well worth a visit. We met truly lovely Uzbek people wherever we went! We would happily go go back to Cox & Kings for our next adventure.

Our trip to the Amalfi coast staying in Caserta and near Sorrento was great. All the local guides were good, particularly the one who was with us throughout the trip, who went the extra mile. The inclusive trips were all good. The hotel in Caserta (which could have been a bit better appointed) was very well placed for the town and the one on Vice Equense was an attractive boutique hotel with wonderful views and lovely staff.

This incredible central Asian holiday offers a fascinating journey through the history, landscape, culture and politics of past and modern-day Uzbekistan. Our local guide was excellent and the participation of a regional history expert really added to the experience. Accommodation was great. The food is fabulous, though be patient when ordering and remember English is not everyone's first language. Vegetarians are well catered for with grilled vegetables.

Great communication from first enquiry through to feedback. Saw most of the top sights in Sicily, led by a guide with extensive knowledge of the history, architecture, and decoration of the buildings. Stayed in comfortable and hospitable 4* hotels, all of which provided buffet breakfasts with huge choice. Highly recommended.

The organizational ability of this company is incredible. A very complicated and coordinated agenda was made very smooth by the excellent arrangements made by Cox and kings.

Well organised trip to Naples & the Amalfi coast, excellent Tour Leader who went above and beyond recommending local eateries & events, and advising on what to see and do in the free days.
The tour had two hotels, one in Caserta which was well located but a little dated and tired (although spotlessly clean) and a second near Sorrento which was bright and clean with excellent staff and food but a slightly poorer location requiring the use of the shuttle bus or taxis to visit anywhere.
Overall I would score the whole holiday as 9/10.

The trip was well-planned and everything went smoothly. It was all really interesting and we felt we knew the country much better at the end of the trip.
Our guide Samir was wonderful, well-informed, thoughtful and imaginative in dealing with peoples' needs. Our driver Mohammad was superb, especially on the windy mountain roads and his assistant Ahmed was infinitely polite and helpful.

First class customer service from Cox & Kings on a booking we made for a personalised trip to Albania and Corfu. Throughout the booking process, Matthew was so incredibly helpful, informative and professional. His suggestions for the tour itinerary were way beyond our expectations and he took time and patience in tweaking things to make sure we were getting the best possible experience. Unfortunately due to my husband becoming seriously ill just a month before departure we had to cancel our trip. Even then Matthew was so helpful in helping us through the cancellation process and putting everything into effect so swiftly. He was so supportive throughout. We were naturally disappointed that we had to cancel our trip but due to the superb customer service we received from Cox & Kings and, in particular, Matthew we shall definitely be using for them for future holidays.

My recent Silk Road tour through Uzbekistan was absolutely fabulous, for many reasons. Alam, our Uzbek guide, was truly superb - extremely knowledgeable and impressive, alongside being very courteous, kind and helpful to each member of our group throughout the trip. The meals were great…varied, interesting, some rather unusual and often in superb locations, such as on rooftops of restaurants with incredible views, such as in Khiva, Bukhara and Samarkand. I loved every minute of the trip, even though the temperatures reached 35 degrees on some days and there were some long days travelling though the desert!
Thank you for a really wonderful, memorable trip and I would highly recommend Cox and Kings travel company, whom I booked the trip through.
I am now enthralled by the Silk Road history, spirituality, culture, art and geography and am enjoying the fascinating literature on the subject, such as Peter Frankopans recent book, The Silk Roads -A New History of the World.

Brilliant holiday to South America. I would recommend this to anybody wishing to dip their toe into this fascinating region.

A well organised if rather full on trip around the whole island of Taiwan. Lots of local colour, friendly people and good food. Varied sightseeing, including atmospheric temples, beautiful lakes ,forests and stunning mountain scenery. Good value for money, though long flights (direct) and I would recommend upgrading seats if possible. We travelled round on a comfortable, spacious coach, with regular stops. Our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Taiwan is a very clean country with many modern features. Reasonable value and well worth a trip.

I am known to be somewhat of a needy and difficult - I tend to point out what is wrong But fantastically there was simply nothing to complain about regarding my recent tour to Uzbekistan. It was marvellous! This was the best tour I have had in years, and I go on long-distance tours every few months. The program was wonderfully planned, the tour manager - an art historian by the name of Diana Driscoll, never stopped feeding us amazing information. I learnt so much. Our local guide, Babur, was superb. The small size of the group made a big difference - it gave us a chance to concentrate on the history and the art, not on endless toilet breaks, which is usually what you get with larger groups.
The hotels were chosen brilliantly. They were all in central locations of the places that we stayed in, comfortable, and with good breakfasts. But the most important thing was the country itself - it's astounding!

Tour was great, guides on whole were excellent. Udaipur: we felt we should have done palace tour first rather than boat trip as palace tour was extremely busy ( too much so); Deogarh was lovely and nice to have quieter town to walk through & added bonus to have tea with BB; Jodhpur.. excellent ; Bikaner - guide was pushy , also took us on a “sunset high tea”. We left a fantastic hotel to watch the sunset from a sand dune, & then were given chicken nuggets and chips. We weren’t able to use the hotel facilities/ pool or enjoy the restaurant due to timings. Very disappointing ! Guide at Agra was brilliant.. good English & informative. Had a great trip, although exhausting and we needed a few more rest afternoons 😀
