Welcome to the New Era of Travel
As we enter the New Era of Travel we know our members are optimistic and eager to travel safely with like-minded guests.
“Part of the Connoisseurs Tours magic is that I feel I have known my fellow travelers all my life.”
Registration is by invitation only to members (and their guests) with similar interests, travel approaches, and philosophies. Our journeys feel like a friends exploring the world together in style and grace.
Protecting you and your travel investment is essential. Connoisseurs Tours offers our guests a Travel Protection Plan that combines the flexibility to decide your travel preferences with gold standard international medical insurance, including emergency air ambulance, trip interruption, and travel delay, to name a few, with the option to cancel for any reason and receive up to a 75% refund.
A More Profound Experience: Through our nearly five decades, we have built strong relationships with the best hotels, guides, and important sites of interest. We can take you behind doors others can’t pass, bypass long lines of tourists and gain private access to places not open to the general public. We are travelers seeking a more profound sense of place, not tourists passing through.
Seamless Service: Our commitment—from the moment you pick up the phone to the moment you return—is to make your journey an effortless experience. That's why over 90% of our guests return to travel with Connoisseurs Tours.
We believe understanding each guest's needs is essential. Each guest has a dedicated team of two Guest Services Representatives to assist you with reservations, special requests, and questions, and one dedicated Airline Concierge Team member to assist you with your flight reservations.
