Making a world of difference...
Over 160 years ago a former preacher, Thomas Cook, devised the first package holiday.

Since then, the business he founded has helped millions of people to relax, unwind – and broaden their horizons.

Thomas Cook didn’t just want people to have fun. He believed affordable travel could change working people’s lives for the better. His company was inspired by a strong sense of social justice and moral responsibility: what today we call corporate social responsibility (CSR).

Today, we’re still inspired by our founder’s values. We believe they make a world of difference – not only to our customers, but to all the people whose lives we touch. Our mission is to perfect the personal leisure experience. And that includes managing our activities in a morally and socially responsible manner.
