Awesome Europe experience     0 , NSW, Australia, Nov 2023
We did the 7 countries in 10 days tour; it was a well-organised trip and whatever was promised, it happened; no surprises; can I say our amazing Tour Director Luigi has been great, very knowledgeable and giving us extra places to visit as long as time permits, making sure our visit to a country is all well-spent and worth the long drives from one country ...read more to the next. Our coach driver Mateo is the best driver, he drove us everyday in safety and we can all rest and sleep soundly on our seats. Moreover, he always keeps our coach neat and tidy. Thank you for this wonderful experience and great value for the cost of the tour; all the hotels were good and clean (Novotel, Accor Group). Will definitely plan our next holiday with Global Journeys.
Enjoyable short trip to NZ   0 , NSW, Australia, Oct 2023
We booked this 7 day coach tour of the south island of New Zealand to use up some credits Global Journeys were holding for us. Global Journeys had previously helped us organize 2 two-week tours in Canada but we had to cancel them. The NZ tour was good. There were 21 people on our coach, all Aussies and all over 50. They were all experienced travellers ...read more and good fun.

The tour covered all the usual places in the south island, including the TranzAlpine rail trip from Christchurch to Greymouth. We were really enjoying it until we reached Arthur's Pass, and the train was forced to return to Christchurch due to torrential rain. Fortunately our coach was able to pick us up almost immediately, and we continued on our way. We had to organize a few to many of our own meals but the tour was inexpensive, so that's understandable.
A Visit to Europe.     0 , Vic, Australia, Oct 2023
Had a wonderful two weeks. Cosmos were great again, George the tour leader, Giovanni the driver. Had a wonderful group of people on board. Highly recommend. Booking through Global Journeys and Georgie was hassle free once again.
Canyonlands Fall 2023   0 , TX, United States, Oct 2023
It was a wonderful trip. Blue skies, new motor coach and great guide. I think the highlight was each day, each park was better and better. The accommodations were all appropriate for the setting and the dining options were fine, but not memorable. Really impressed with the luggage handling and room check-in efficiency. Maybe a bit more info on Day ...read more 1 logistics to meet the guide and check-in would help but the hotel knew the drill. I would definitely take another Globus/Cosmos tour in the future.
Way to go!     0 , SA, Australia, Oct 2023
Leaving Madrid and our first walled city of Avila, cobblestones, churches and overlapping cultures, was the start of journey through Spain, Portugal and Morocco to beautiful Lisbon and Seville, the mysteries of Morocco and the opulence of the Alhambra Palace in Granada. It is hard to pick one thing out as a highlight. The tour covered the countries ...read more and Cosmos looked after you. Some free time for the more independent traveller but great tour leader, drivers and comfy Coach, to make for easy travel. The wifi was a bonus.
Best way to see most of the Eastern USA and Canada!   0 , NSW, Australia, Sep 2023
The highlight of this tour for us is Niagara Falls where you will ride a boat to the falls nearly in front of it. Cosmos delivered what it says on the itinerary and the quality of the hotels is pretty good, With the exception of no breakfast on almost all days. The hotel rooms are much larger than in Europe and you will see a lot of places in 15 days. ...read more We loved Canada with its many beautiful places especially Ottawa and also enjoyed the eastern side of the USA which is historical and there's much more to see especially New York City and Washington DC where there are lots of museums that are free. Be sure to watch a Broadway show in NY for the experience as you will see Times Square at night and it's amazing! We had one of the best times of our lives and this tour made it happen!!!
Great time in Germany and more     3 , SA, Australia, Sep 2023
Tina and Salvatore made our tour in Germany and Eastern Europe so easy. We saw so much, including lots of art galleries, without the hassle of getting places. Enough free time to do what we wanted and always a great orientation of each place we stayed in. The hotels were comfortable but this came at the cost of being further out from the city centre. ...read more Nothing was too much trouble for our Tour Director- she cared for each person and obviously enjoys people and her job. I would travel Cosmos again in preference to any other tour group.
A Beautiful Country   0 , VIC, Australia, Sep 2023
Canada is an amazing country. The tour does a loop through the Canadian Rockies, and the scenery changes every day. We saw rugged mountains, rivers and streams, glaciers, snow fields and wildlife everywhere. The days traveling weren't too long, but you were always on the go. Our tour guide Tarek was extremely knowledgeable about where we were, what ...read more was around us to see, and the country in general. We would highly recommend doing this tour, as we saw so many thing and places that we wouldn't have seen by ourselves.
Awe-inspiring and hassle free travelling Canada and Alaska   1 , VIC, Australia, Sep 2023
Departing from Vancouver early September we enjoyed perfect weather for our entire month. The Rocky Mountaineer matched the spectacular scenery with exceptional comfort. We recommend going gold leaf. Transfer to the coach to to visit glorious lakes and beautiful Banff was guided expertly by Alma who impressed us with her knowledge and good humour. ...read more Walked on a glacier and took advantage of optional excursions enroute through various attractive ski resorts. Caught the ferry to Vancouver Island - a gem of a city especially the waterfront and impressive Butchart Gardens and world class museum. Floyd the driver was highly skilled and managed luggage effortlessly. The Holland America cruise exceeded our expectations with lovely meals in the dining room, first class entertainment and attentive service. Stopping at various Alaskan ports was a highlight especially the historic train from Skagway to White Pass. Thanks to Georgie Walpole for her expertise in planning. We enjoyed such a positive experience that we have booked another journey with Cosmos next year.
Southern Charms tour     1 , New Zealand, Sep 2023
Had a blast. The guide and driver were great. The people on the coach were a great mix of ages and nationalities. The cost was great đź‘Ť. Accommodation was better than we expected for the price of the tour.
Wonderful tour through Japan     0 , QLD, Australia, Sep 2023
We had a wonderful time from start to finish on this tour. Global Journeys made it all so easy for us with the tour booking and organising our flights - we could not fault Jemma she was excellent. The tour itself was great we saw everything we had hoped to and the tour guide Aki was so well informed and had a great sense of humour keeping everyone happy ...read more during the bus trips. The Samurai Museum was great fun and the Golden Pavilion in Kyoto and Himeji Castle near Osaka were the highlights for us but everyday was a pleasure on this tour. Weather wise it was quite hot at the start of the tour and on the last day so would probably advise anyone who doesn’t like the heat to go later in the year or in spring. Highly recommend this tour.
Return to Cosmos   0 , NSW, Australia, Sep 2023
First trip back with Cosmos after many years and we were lucky to travel with 12 other previous Cosmos clients so made it an easy trip. The accommodation in Copenhagen and Berlin could be improved on but overall the rest of the trip the motels improved with the facilities provided.
Trans-America Adventure Take 2   1 , NSW, Australia, Aug 2023
We took this tour in 2012 and as we had enjoyed it so much decided to take it again and so glad we did. Same, but different, mostly new hotels and a few different destinations, a different time of year and it made it feel like a brand new tour. We had the wonderful John as our Tour Director and Jeff our driver to make our trip perfect and we had the ...read more best companions, mostly Aussies, some Kiwis and English but we all just mixed so well and this is what helps make a holiday memorable. It has an even balance of big cities and magnificent National Parks. Yes, it is long but you know that when you book, early starts but that is to make the most of every new day. Cosmos do tours so well and wouldn't think of travelling with another provider, their value for money and organisation makes choosing them easy. Thank you again Tracey and Global Journeys for managing our booking so well
Amazing USA Tour   1 , VIC, Australia, Aug 2023
This trip was amazing from start to finish. Booking was a breeze, and Georgie was so helpful with changes we had to make over the years(due to COVID). We saw so many things we never dreamed we would. We ticked off many iconic sites and locations and went to places we never would have had we been doing it by ourselves. The tour was very well organized, ...read more and we covered many kilometers. Some of the days are very long, spent mainly on the bus, but they were made fun by our guide, John, and the rest of the tour group. The scenery changed from large cities, to small towns, to forests, to deserts, to National Parks. No two days were the same. The only thing we didn't like was the limited amount of breakfasts provided. We would highly recommend this tour, but be prepared, it is a full on trip with lots to see and long days.
Excellent North America Tour     0 , NSW, Australia, Aug 2023
Was an exceptional tour to see the most in a short amount of time. As a solo traveller from Australia to never have been to the USA yet was a real adventure and dream come true. The tour guide was average though, very basic and had been in his job for far too long, had lost the spark of travel I think. The hotels were amazing and superiorly comfortable ...read more no issues there. There was a lot of free time so it was up to yourself to get how much out of the trip you wanted. So if you planned and looked into things you wanted to do in the town you were in or travelling to, a day or two ahead then it was epic. However, if you weren't on the ball and waiting for someone to tell you what to do all the time you would have missed out.

Initiative and planning went a long way in this trip. I think at the very start of the trip a group dinner and meet and greet should have been formally arranged at an appropriate time to break the ice and get to know everyone as I found we were meeting people and getting to know people much further into the trip when it definitely should have been arranged from the start as there were so many nice people in the tour that had we been properly introduced from the start we would have done things together on the trip in our free time as we had common interests. Either way this trip is worth doing if you want to see many highlights in North America in only two weeks.
Cosmos Europe Tour   5 , NSW, Australia, Jul 2023
Travelled in August 2023. Excellent tour with friendly, experienced Tour Director and Coach Driver. A busy itinerary but with the advantage of some 2 night stays along the way. Early starts ensured arrival at various sites before the crowds and the heat of the day. Accommodation was clean, beds comfortable, included meals were great. Optional tours ...read more and local guides were excellent. Coach was always clean, large windows ensured great photo opportunities from all seats.

Booking on the optional dinners & excursions meant that "extra" highlights and surprises were sometimes included too.... views of the coast at Nice and Monte Carlo at twilight, sunset on the Eiffel Tower, viewing St Peter's Basilica from a bridge over the Tiber River at sunset, stunning views over Lucerne and surrounds while ascending Mount Stanserhorn by cable car are all memorable. A highly recommended tour.
Wonderful tour through scenic Norway   1 , QLD, Australia, Jul 2023
A great tour with amazing scenery. I would definitely recommend this Cosmos tour. Although we had a full coach of 45, everything went smoothly under the expert guidance of Ausra.
Wonderful introduction to the Rockies!     0 , NSW, Australia, Jul 2023
My partner and I loved this introductory tour to the Rockies! The tour was a great mix of time with the group and free/leisure time to ourselves to explore places in the Rockies such as Jasper, Banff and Whistler. Our Tour Director was incredibly knowledgeable about the wildlife and geography of the Rocky Mountains and took us to places that we would ...read more have never found on our own. My only complaint is how quickly the tour ended ;) Global Journeys made the booking process easy and seamless!
Perfect tour for 1st timers or those who have visited before   1 , VIC, Australia, Jul 2023
I was so glad we went with this tour it covered all the best places our tour guide (Paul) was very engaging and a extremely knowledgeable guide with loads of suggestions and interesting stories. And would highly recommend if this is your first trip to Ireland or your 10th you'll learn things you never knew before.
The Rockies     2 , Victoria, Australia, Jul 2023
OMG, what an adventure we had during our Rockies tour, from beautiful scenery, to Snow at Sun Peaks in July to the ice explorer and walking on a Glacier to seeing bears, our group was amazing our Tour Director Heather- Fabulous and our Driver David outstanding.
