The tour was really good, I saw some amazing places. I booked for twin sharing and got an amazing roommate. I wish there were some extra drop off points on the last day and the operator details were shared bit earlier than the trip.

The trip was well organized with a variety of attractions and activities, supplemented by stories and anecdotes shared by the guide. Accommodations were comfortable and stylish. Also kudos to the consideration and flexibility of our guide. Due to weather event, we changed our arrival schedules a few times and ended up arriving one day late. Our guide read more has been very patient and helped us make alternative arrangements.
Incredible trip! I booked 1 week in Alaska and experienced nature hikes along the Alaskan range, guided walk on a glacier, Northern Lights, and dog sledding.
Great National Parks Tour Scenic Parks ExplorerMarilyn and Paul, NSW, Australia, Sep 2025
This 14 day tour involved a lot of travel time and we saw so many great places. My favourite place was Yellowstone National Park. We thank Jon our Tour Director and Ron our Driver for making a big trip so very easy. Grace from Global Journeys was also very efficient making our booking, with special requests and keeping us informed of any changes to our itinerary.
The 7 Day Tour was an excellent experience, which captured the best of New Mexico! Would highly recommend this tour for beautiful landscapes, and Los Alamos a beautiful little town! There were other notable inclusions which were interesting on this tour, must sees absolutely if your in New Mexico!!
This tour is fast paced. It has to be to see all that you see. 7 national parks in 14 days, you do the math. We traveled 3,032 miles. Suggestions: Bring a walking stick - the kind thats fold up. Make sure your shoes are comfortable for walking. Download common restaurant apps so when you stop for lunch, you can be ahead of the line in ordering. Rain read more gear is essential. WiFi is sporadic, don’t depend on it being available. If hearing is a problem, ask to sit up front of the coach. For everyday, pack clothes you can throw away - go to Goodwill (or something like it), get clothes from the “cheap” rack, then throw them away as it makes more room in your suitcase for souvenirs. Tips for included meals are paid by tour company. Bring books, videos, games, and snacks, anything you like to keep occupied during travel from one place to another and finally a travel pillow makes the ride more comfortable. And suggestions for Globus - plan on 2 nights at Jackson and none at Old Faithful Inn.
