How much is donated to Cancer Research UK ?

We donate up to 50% of our commission from suppliers to Cancer Research UK.  Our commission percentage varies considerably on the travel arrangements booked and suppliers. For example, European destinations may only discount by up to 10%, whereas a tailor-made African holiday may be discounted by up to 20%.  Please ask your travel consultant how much the estimated donation may be when booking.

How do I know the money will be donated to Cancer Research UK?

When you book travel arrangements with the Connoisseur Travel Collection, all payments are made into an independent financial trust account independently administered by the Travel Trust Association, one of the UK’s leading travel associations.   Donations payments are made directly from this account to Cancer Research UK every month.  We are pleased to confirm on request how much your booking raised for Cancer Research UK and when the payment was made.

Your donation forms part of the package and cannot be separated from your travel arrangements.

Can I donate to another charity instead of Cancer Research UK?
