Tour in Kiwi Land Signature North Island , TAS, Australia, Sep 2026
We travelled on a Grand Pacific coach tour to South Island New Zealnd in 2025. In 2026 we travelled to the North Island, New Zealand with Grand Pacific. It was a great tour and we managed to see so much under the wonderful guidance of our very experienced Tour Director and Coach Driver. A great way to learn of the history and the culture of New Zealand. read more The accommodation was great too and each day we had different experiences. All the inclusive extra activities were also well organised. Our Travel Agent at Global Journeys was very helpful from the start of our booking right through to the completion of our tour.
Our 3rd cruise with Celestyal Heavenly Greece, Italy & Croatia , NSW, Australia, Aug 2026
We come to Greece every year and choose Celestyal Cruises as they start in Athens and return to Athens making life easy for us. We like this small family cruise company of 1,260 guest capacity as it keeps down the noise level and the smaller ships are able to dock in ports making on shore tour access more convenient. A wonderful company, attention to read more detail, staff were genuinely friendly, attentive and helpful, going out of their way to ensue we had a great vacation. The food in the bistro was excellent - lots of variety on a daily basis and all tasted so good that we were overeating, finishing with delicious cakes and fruit. The onboard entertainment was top class as usual.

We did lots of Greek dancing during Greek ports of call. The drinks were a bit pricey including a service charge was my main gripe. Otherwise we enjoyed the trip with lots of beautiful photos of Dubrovnik, Montenegro and Bari. We didn't go on any of the tours as they were either a bit pricey in aussie dollars or too long 5-6 hrs in the heat of the day. We decided to catch a cab to Dubrovnik Old City with lots of steps....rather than overdoing it. It was so hot we were happy to catch a cab back after 90 mins. Montenegro was simple to walk off the ship into town as was Bari with it's charming narrow street markets. I highly recommend this cruise it was great.
The “Grand Prix” tour Britain and Ireland Highlights , NSW, Australia, Aug 2026
The speedy ‘Grand Prix’ tour of the UK was a great experience that touches all the must-see places. The Tour Director and coach captain both did an excellent job to fill each day with wonderful unforgettable memories.
Exploring Americas National Parks tour in the West Exploring America's Great Parks , VIC, Australia, Aug 2026
Excellent 15 day tour with a super Tour Director and Experienced Driver. Booking the tour online was easy and well managed by our Global Journeys Travel Consultant. The itinerary was par excellence and the places visited (Grant Canyon, Mount Rushmore, Zion Park, Yellow Stone, Bryce Canyon to name a few) was just breathtaking. Would recommend this tour with no hesitation.
