< Back To Cosmos

LA and beyond 7 Golden West Adventure , VIC, Australia, Jul 2019
This was by far the best trip we have taken with Cosmos. The tour was well planned, the tour leader (Judi) was brilliant giving us all heaps of info, telling us the quickest away to get to places etc. The driver was the best, never stressing in the heavy traffic and even got off to remind a car that he was in the bus lane.
Fantastic Experience   6 The Canadian Rockies , NSW, Australia, Jul 2019
This trip was my first overseas experience and it was fantastic. Elaine Wright the tour director was fantastic and was extremely knowledgeable and had everything and all 43 travellers organised and on time every day. Mike the driver was great as well. The scenery in the Rockies was fantastic and no photos actually do it justice and I enjoyed the tour read more and the company of the other travellers so much. Would definitely recommend Cosmos in Canada again.
Great short tour 2 , WA, Australia, Jul 2019
Toronto to Toronto. Lots of highlights but Niagara Falls the standout. Cosmos put together a great tour. In hindsight could have ended the tour in Montréal and linked into our Rockies tour from there. Montréal back to Toronto is just backtracking really, but tour director Susan was so entertaining and enjoyable to be with it made it a worthwhile trip read more back. For us this was the ideal trip to add to our Rockies and Alaska tour, just took a flight to Vancouver and it linked in well. Perfect weather all the way as well. July/August is a good time to go.
Highlights of Slovenia and Croatia 3 Scenic Slovenia & Croatia , QLD, Australia, Jul 2019
The 8 Day tour of Slovenia and Croatia was fast moving, 2000+ kilometres in 7 days, but nonetheless amazing and spectacular. Highlights included the huge Postojna Caves, Split and the beautiful Dalmatian Coast, Dubrovnik, and the Plitvice Lakes National Park, and we loved Ljubljana even if we couldn't quite get the pronunciation right. Our tour leader, read more Oki, did a good job. Oki was very organised, and needed to be because of the fast pace of the tour. Thank you Yvonne for finding this tour which allowed us to see Croatia tagged onto the tour of Ireland.
Wonderful tour of Spain and Portugal 3 The Best of Spain & Portugal , WA, Australia, Jul 2019
This was the 3rd Cosmos that we have done and as usual it was very well planned and executed. Everything was taken care of, the hotels were good and we saw as much as we could in the time period. The tour Director and Driver were great. Loved seeing Madrid, Porto and Salamanca and all of the stops in between. The walking tours of the old cities were read more amazing - so much history. Thank you to Jemma at Global Journeys - always there to help along the way. We will be organising our next one in the next 10 months or so. Thanks again.
British Isles Tour 3 The British Isles in Depth , WA, Australia, Jul 2019
Tour was wonderful. Our tour guide was great funny and helpful. Would love to tour with him again as he was full of information and facts. Certainly would recommend our guide to anyone and the holiday as well.
A Great Way to see the Historic sites, Cities and Beautiful Countryside of UK and Ireland 2 Grand Tour of Britain & Ireland , S.A., Australia, Jul 2019
Be prepared for a whirlwind tour in comfort. The Cosmos coach was roomy with good legroom. Every day seats were allocated in rotation, so everybody had a chance to sit up front, middle and rear of the coach. About every 2 hours or less the coach stopped for a comfort and coffee stop, often in a place of interest or scenic beauty. The pace was fast with read more early morning starts the norm. There were only a couple of 2 night stops and they were appreciated after packing and unpacking everyday. The group of 44 on the bus were mainly Caucasian, English speaking Australians, Canadians and Americans, friendly enough but never really gelled as a group, but it was argument and dispute free.

A little disappointing was that many of the stops where there was an attraction, that no admission tickets were included , the tour was well priced but personally we would have preferred to pay just a little extra and have these entrance fees included. If we had no interest in the attraction on offer, apart from the usual woollen and souvenir/cafe shops, time was wasted while those who chose to see the attraction were away. Be sure to take a good book to while away the waits.
Spectacular Canadian Rockies 3 The Canadian Rockies , VIC, Australia, Jul 2019
We were first time travellers with Cosmos and I have to say we were both pleasantly surprised. In fact we really couldn't fault them. The accommodation in all instances were spacious, comfortable and very well located. Our tour director Sue was extremely knowledgeable in every aspect of the tour and couldn't have been more helpful. Our driver Neil was read more very capable and always mindful of opportunities to stop when wildlife was spotted. We would not hesitate to recommend Cosmos as a tour company and we fully intend to travel with them again. Global Journeys who organised our travel arrangements for the second time now were as before very efficient.
Grand Alaskan Adventure 2 Grand Alaskan Adventure , UK, Jul 2019
I found some of the excursions a bit misleading, especially in Denali. A whole list but you could only have time for two at the most. The wildlife walk was more botanical than wildlife and not worth $115.
A wonderful tour through Alaska 0 Grand Alaskan Adventure , VIC, Australia, Jul 2019
Following on from beautiful Canada, Alaska was equally fantastic. The rugged beauty of Alaska and from the coach, seeing native animals in their natural environment was unexpected bonus. The trip was well organized and the people on the tour were great company.
Incredible Trip! 10 The British Isles in Depth , QLD, Australia, Jul 2019
Look, there's not much I'd want to change with this wonderful tour. I can't express how amazing our Tour Leader, Helen, was. Such a lovely taste of everything UK... some places I need to return to and others I could have done with less time in. Having said that, we were there at a very busy time of the year and this most likely affected our view. I read more was happy with the accommodation, some issues at places, but it's really the least of your trip. Baggage was handled for us at every stop which was marvellous.

Some of the excursions were phenomenal (do not miss Bunratty Castle evening!), others not so much, but it's all still part of the experience. Plenty of free time to find your own feet, which I appreciate as I like to 'feel' a city on the public transport systems and chatting with the locals. Lots of included meals (quite expensive to eat and drink in the UK). My special tip: go straight to the lounge on the ferry crossings... will cost you a few $, but better seating, drinks and food included, and toilet facilities.
19 Day Canadian & Alaskan Masterpiece 1 Canadian Masterpiece with Rocky Mountaineer & Alaska Cruise , NSW, Australia, Jul 2019
I enjoyed the trip. In general all was good and particularly liked the Rocky Mountaineer train and the coach trip. The Tour Director Dane Wilson was excellent. Accommodation in Jasper can be reviewed and it is not up to standard. I am not very impressed with Holland America Cruise. I have travelled by other cruises ships and Holland America is not of value for money.
Enjoyable London to Rome tour with Cosmos 1 From St. Paul's to St. Peter's , ACT, Australia, Jul 2019
Global Journeys (Yvonne Brooks) organised our holiday perfectly - she was always very prompt to answer questions (which she did fully), she was very efficient with the booking and even kept us updated with changes to our hotels after the booking had started. I cannot more highly recommend Yvonne.

Our Cosmos Tour was enjoyable. It provided value for read more money and was a great introduction to Europe. As I was travelling with my 12 year old daughter I was pleased that there were quite a few other families with kids on our tour - in fact I think about 15 of the 42 on the coach were under 20.

The tour director was good and the bus driver very safe. The optional tour to Mt Titlis while quite expensive was a highlight and absolutely worthwhile. The hotels on the whole were adequate and reflected the budget tour cost - the only disappointment was that a couple of the hotels (in Rome and Paris) were a bit further out than ideal - which ruled out walking to sites. By comparison the hotel in London was well located and among the best of all the hotels we stayed at.
Fantastic, stress free tour of beautiful Canada   1 The Canadian Rockies , NSW, Australia, Jul 2019
This was a great tour, suitable for all ages. It covered a large part of Canada, filled with amazing views and great experiences while not being too physically demanding. The tour guide Jennifer was fantastic, she was friendly, informative and broke up the hours of travel with numerous interesting stops in between and created an inclusive group environment read more for the entirety of the tour. There was adequate free time to explore, balanced with a large variety of included and extra activities. Our tour driver Todd was safe and courteous, always ensuring we all arrived at our destination safely.

I highly recommend this tour for the convenience of having the same tour bus and extensive local knowledge of the tour guide and driver throughout. Having booked this tour to celebrate a milestone birthday, it was a easy booking experience, with our many queries quickly answered and accommodations made as this was the last part of a multi country long trip. Unfortunately, this was our last international trip before COVID but we are definitely planning to travel with Cosmos and book through Global Journeys again.
Wonderful tour of Ireland 1 Irish Discovery , NSW, Australia, Jul 2019
I absolutely loved this tour. Ireland is so beautiful. Our tour guide Julian Cleary was so knowledgeable and entertaining. I liked the way we were free to do our own thing on some of the excursions. Hotels were great.
Idyllic Iceland 2 , QLD, Australia, Jun 2019
The weather was sunny days and not as cold as I expected. The scenery was excellent. The tour director and driver were good, and only 20 people on the coach in total. Travellers were from all parts of the world - the Americans were fun people to travel with. The rooms are very small and basic and food is dearer but that to be expected. Good supermarkets read more especially the 'Bonus' supermarkets. You have to go to breakfast early as they run out of food.

Madeline at Global Journeys deserves a big pat on the back, as she did an excellent job with good suggestions. Others thinking of going to Iceland I recommend going to the west coast on the peninsular and the south coast for the scenery. The circle was very crowded with cruise ship tours. Thanks Global Journeys.
A great time exploring the Dalmatian coast with Cosmos   4 , WA, Australia, Jun 2019
Cosmos has done an excellent job in planning this tour of Venice, Slovenia, Croatia & Montenegro. It is amazing how much we saw in the time. Our Tour Director and Driver went out of their way to help everyone get the most out of the tour. Although half of us were from Australia, the group covered six countries and a wide range of ages. Everyone mixed read more in well and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

We have done several tours with Cosmos and enjoyed every one, they have all been excellent value. At Portoroz our hotel was on the waterfront, but others were out of town. This didn't really matter. There was an included dinner on the first night at every place and our Tour Director gave us a range of suggestions for the other nights. Jemma, our consultant from Global Journeys, gave us excellent service, always replying promptly and helpfully to our emails.
Interesting trip 5 Central Europe , QLD, Australia, Jun 2019
The trip was at a nice pace covered some very interesting places, the tour leader was very helpful. More time in Munich and Vienna would have been an advantage for sight seeing. Overall value for money.
Wonderful tour of Central Europe 2 Central Europe , QLD, Australia, Jun 2019
Every day a new highlight, great architecture, lovely scenery and a well organised tour. The tour covered all the areas we wanted to see at a reasonable pace with nice hotels. Dinner nights proved to be a great way for people to have fun and get to know each other.
