Sunny Shores of Southern Florida Reviews
2 Sunny Shores of Southern Florida reviews from past travelers that booked with Global Journeys.
I really enjoyed the Florida Discovery tour, my third tour with Cosmos/Globus and as usual they didn't disappoint. Our tour director Patrick had all the details down to a fine art so we were never in any doubt about what was happening next. He even threw in a few extras such as daily chocolates on the bus and a free slice of key lime pie in Key West! read more
The standard of hotels was mostly excellent, especially in Miami where we were in a Hilton just a block from the beach. The pace of the tour was good with mostly two night stays and we covered all the places I wanted to see. Kennedy Space Centre and Key West were highlights for me but really it was all excellent.
With only 19 people we were always on time because everyone was so cooperative with punctuality and they were all lovely people. Our driver Tony skillfully negotiated the sometimes narrow streets and always had a smile, despite what would have been long days for him at times.
I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants to take the stress out of driving themselves around as well as being able to gain knowledge you would never find if doing this yourself. Thank you again Cosmos for a wonderful holiday. I'll be back.

Excellent value for money 2 Colin & Dinah, VIC, Australia, Jun 2015
Our Tour Director Nancy was a Florida resident and gave us lots of good information about each place we visited. Kennedy Space Centre was a highlight and is included in the trip. Don't miss the new space shuttle exhibit! Fort Lauderdale with its canals was a highlight and the hotel we stayed in was excellent (even though we did get there late due to read more the coach getting a flat tire). Key West was excellent. The snorkelling trip and sunset cruise were optional extras well worth doing. The ride on an airboat through the everglades was OK but out in open country - not like we had imagined going through swamps with lots of trees. The visit to Edison's house and museum at Fort Myers was another highlight. The Quality Hotel we stayed in at Clearwater Beach was not up to standard in our opinion. Overall, this trip gives you a good appreciation of what Florida has to offer and was excellent value for money.
