What is Trip for a trip?
Every time you book a holiday with us at no extra cost you can choose to send a disadvantaged child or young person on an inspiring day trip.
We give on average 1% of our sales to our Trip for a Trip scheme. We believe travel can open up horizons, broaden perspectives and ultimately be an unforgettably enjoyable experience. We believe in one for one – for every trip you go on, a child also benefits from a day trip.
Since we started we’ve made a positive difference to over 9,000 children’s lives. We hope others in our industry will follow.
If you'd like to give a child a day out you can also make a donation to our Trip for a Trip scheme - just get in touch.

Trip for a Trip sounds an excellent idea. My appetite for travel began with day trips, so I know how much they can mean to a child. Good luck and thanks to all who can make this happen. 
– Michael Palin, December 2016
It was a huge surprise to see your confirmation email describing the last trip to Mukuvisi Woodlands. I grew up literally a stone's throw from the woodlands and it was my childhood playground. So it was a coincidental connection to something really meaningful to me... What a great programme! – Customer Rob D, February 2024
