At Riviera Travel, we appreciate just how hard it is for charities and organisations to continuously raise the ever-increasing funds needed for their vital work each year. However, even the most loyal supporters of any good cause reach a point where they cannot donate more money or sponsor another event – however they may still want to go on holiday!
As part of our Affinity scheme, we have partnered with a number of organisations and charities, and you are able to support these simply by booking your holiday with Riviera Travel. We offer this across our wide range of holidays from our luxurious river cruises to new UK breaks, cultural European tours or city breaks and long-haul trips of a lifetime without any additional cost to you.
Why choose Riviera Travel?
- Your holiday will cost exactly the same regardless of whether you choose to benefit an Affinity Partner or not, as the donation is made directly from Riviera Travel, not from the person taking the holiday
- Our carefully selected Affinity partners include a diverse collection of charities and good causes alongside organisations that take part in fundraising
- Riviera Travel was established over 38 years ago and offers a wide range of quality, fully escorted UK European and Worldwide tours, city breaks and river cruises
