Two Big Awards for Artisans of Leisure
An exclusive Artisans of Leisure tour activity in Southeast Asia
We're incredibly honored that Artisans of Leisure has been voted one of the best tour operators in the world in both the Travel + Leisure World's Best Awards 2020 and the Conde Nast Traveller Readers' Choice Awards 2020!
Both publications highlighted that the awards take on extra meaning during this very challenging year. They note that the winners "are the best out there" (T+L) and are the "enduring gems" (CNT) that readers keep coming back to and that inspire them when they think about future travels.
For us, receiving these two awards is particularly special because they reflect the votes of our amazing community of travelers. During these times, it's the strong relationships we have with all of you that we value most.
Our entire team has been celebrating these awards, and we're incredibly grateful for the trust that our travelers place in us. Thank you for voting and showing your support!
