Is Crossing Travel recognised by Condé Nast Traveller?

Yes. Crossing Travel is a Condé Nast Traveller Top Travel Specialist 2026, listed among the Global All-Rounders for milestone celebrations and design-led journeys.

What does booking through a Virtuoso-affiliated advisor add?

The hotel knows who you are before you arrive. Bookings made through our partnerships typically carry benefits such as daily breakfast, a hotel credit, and an upgrade or flexible check-in where available, at the hotel's own rate.

Do I pay more for booking a hotel through Crossing?

No. Hotel rates through our partnerships match the hotel's own rate. For more complex journeys, a planning fee is agreed at the outset, so you always know what you are paying for.

How are payments handled when I book with Crossing?

Clearly, and before you commit. Wherever you live, we set out how, when and to whom each part of your journey is paid. For clients based in the UK, flight-inclusive holidays are also ATOL protected under licence number 12191, and other travel arrangements are covered by financial failure insurance through Evolution Insurance Company.
