Great holiday and everything went as planned 1
Canadian Masterpiece with Rocky Mountaineer & Alaska Cruise
Roseanne & Alan Inkson, TAS, Australia, Jul 2015
We had a great holiday and everything went as planned. Just a couple of points we would like to make - the coach was not equipped with WiFi or a toilet. I think both are essential. Secondly no breakfast included in most hotels.
Done with no hassles at all 2

Most enjoyable tour 3
The Best of Spain & Portugal
Ross & Cathryn Buttimore New Zealand, New Zealand, Jul 2015
We found Global Journeys great to deal with. The advice and the price were both very good. The tour was most enjoyable. Spain and Portugal were both stunning and while one can't see everything in thirteen days, Cosmos certainly planned this tour well. Our tour guide, Vitor Luciano was excellent and the other guides that joined us, were also very good. read more Our bus was near new and very comfortable. We considered this this tour very much value for money. Our actual overall rating is very good plus.
Experienced and customer focused tour director 1
The British Isles in Depth
Peter Donoghue, VIC, Australia, Jul 2015
Good, experienced and customer focused tour director. Similarly with driver. Tour accommodation and meals good, except for Newcastle and Wrexam. Tour pace and tours including optional excursions were good. Consider supplying headsets to assist tour director on street briefs. Enjoyed the tour.
A balanced coverage of the three countries 1
England, Scotland & Wales
Paul, WA, Australia, Jul 2015
A balanced coverage of the three countries in the time allowed for the tour. I found the pace about right taking into consideration the need for some long sections between stops. Some older people found the pace a bit taxing.
This is a pretty good tour flexible and well organised. The overall quality of food and accommodation was good except one of the hotels in Italy had really below average breakfast, hope something can be done in future.
My cosmos tour was very good to excellent. Just some of the optional excursions were not good value. But the driver and host were excellent, the weather was great, the scenery excellent.
I would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone 4
Scenic Switzerland by Train
Dianne Downie, VIC, Australia, Jul 2015
Excellent. It was so good, it would have been nice to have had a included dinner the last night to say goodbye to everyone. I would thoroughly recommend this tour to anyone.
The trip was a bit fast paced but provided a good sense of the UK and our Tour Guide was excellent.
Loved this tour, we really got to see the real Alaska 1
Alaska & the Yukon
Tony & Lynn Grieve, QLD, Australia, Jul 2015
Loved this tour, we really got to see the real Alaska. It was very long days on the coach, so tiring but we signed up for that as Alaska is so large it does take a lot of driving to see it. The accommodation was better than we expected in the more remote places but just wish that the hotels would let the tour coaches in a little earlier & then we could read more have had some earlier nights to be ready for the next days travel. Tour guide Jason was excellent & so was Adam our coach driver. Both went above & beyond to make the tour such a wonderful time.
I would recommend this tour to anyone of any age 2
Southern Charms & Florida
Rebecca, QLD, Australia, Jul 2015
We thoroughly enjoyed our tour of the Old South. Our tour guide Hilary really made this trip special. She was so friendly and knowledgeable and kept everyone organised. I would recommend this tour to anyone of any age. We had a great group and I got to see places I had only ever dreamed of seeing. Sun Studio in Memphis and Graceland were personal read more highlights for me. If you love music and history this is the tour for you!
Never a dull moment on this tour 3
Southern Charms & Florida
A & P Summers, QLD, Australia, Jul 2015
We are a couple in our sixties & for us this tour was like going down memory lane. The tours to recording studios where our favorite performers of the 1950-60's recorded their music was fantastic. We also loved the history aspect of this tour with stories from our wonderful informative guide Hilliary about black slavery, famous people like Martin Luther read more King. The tour to Gracelands was amazing, we never dreamed it would be so big & have so much for the visitor to see. There was never a dull moment on this tour therefore we would highly recommend it to anyone who is thinking about it to just do it. We had a wonderful time & always come back to Cosmos for experienced wonderful guides who obviously love their job & total value for money.
Enjoyed our first trip to Great Britain 2
The Best of Britain & Ireland
Jeanette & Neil, NSW, Australia, Jul 2015
We found everything very expensive in Great Britain. The pace was fast especially if you chose the extra options. Our coach driver Alister was excellent. We enjoyed our first trip to Great Britain.
The itinerary and extra excursions were fantastic 6
Jennifer Attard, VIC, Australia, Jul 2015
I was surprised and disappointed in the distance our accommodation was from main city centres. On my previous Cosmos tour in Greece, we were right in the centres of cities, which meant that when we had spare time we could explore at our own discretion. We could choose restaurants other than at the accommodation. The accommodation in Rome was not only read more ages away from the city centre, it was also extremely dated. This was also the case in Florence and Lucerne. The hotel in Lucerne had no fridge or air conditioning - we were experiencing temperatures of 40 degrees! Accommodation in Innsbruck and Venice was very nice, however again in the middle of nowhere. The accommodation issues of this tour would make me extremely wary of booking a tour with Cosmos again. That said, the tour guide and driver were knowledgeable, professional and accommodating of our needs. The itinerary and extra excursions were fantastic.
Surpassed all we expected of it 1
Irish Discovery
Mike & Christine Duncan, NZ, New Zealand, Jul 2015
Fantastic tour. Surpassed all we expected of it. The Cosmos tour director Stewart and coach driver Garry were superb and made our holiday extra special. We made a lot of new friends from all over the world and We're planning our next tour already once the visa's paid off. Leanne at Global Journeys set it all up beautifully for us and we're really grateful to her.
The entire holiday was an excellent experience 1
Anisha, VIC, Australia, Jul 2015
The entire holiday was an excellent experience. My tour director Patricia Satrell was extremely caring and full of knowledge and jokes/anecdotes. The only thing was that the hotel in Nice, France was too small for our needs and made it more like a backpacker stay. I will travel with Cosmos again.
Croatia and Slovenia are both beautiful and interesting places to visit. We both had a wonderful time exploring the many places we visited. The coach was large and comfortable. We had a large group, 46 people! It was well organised and all went smoothly. The hotels were basic, with the exception of the hotel in Dubrovnik which was exceptional. Beautiful read more large room and great infinity pool. This was a definite highlight of the tour. We were very disappointed in Hotel Bosnia. The receptionist was very abrupt and rude. When we got to our room, we found that one of our suitcases was severely damaged. It had been dragged up the stairs and the wheel ripped off along with the whole corner of the suitcase! The hotel refused to take responsibility! The tour guide put in an incident report to Cosmos but have not heard anything from them so far. We then had to spend a day tracking down a new suitcase as the damage left the other suitcase unusable. Other than this incident it was an enjoyable holiday.
An amazing time, recommend this tour to everyone 1
Trans-American Adventure
Rodney & Debbie Blair, TAS, Australia, Jul 2015
We had an amazing time on this tour and would recommend this tour to everyone, we would and will book more Cosmos tours. Booking this holiday though Global Journeys was so easy and stress free, Emily was so good, nothing was to much trouble.
Amazing journey through the North of France 3
Paris, Normandy and the Loire
Rodney M, VIC, Australia, Jul 2015
This was an amazing journey through the North of France with Cosmos Tours. The tour was well-paced, well-priced and our tour guide, Clara, was absolutely outstanding. The whole experience was pleasant from start to finish, and Cosmos are the experts in European coach travel. Having everything organized for you, and having your cases taken care of, read more made the whole experience such a joy. I would highly recommend this tour as it is not too long and not too short and includes some of the best sights in northern France, including Mont St Michel, Normandy beach landings, Brittany and the stunning Loire Valley. The whole booking process and ticket issuing with Yvonne at Global Journeys was seamless and I thank you so much for your help. The online checklist was a real winner too. It was all so easy and effortless. Will definitely book my next Cosmos tour with you. I think my wife and I are up to our 4th or 5th Cosmos tour now!
The pacing of tour and information was brilliant 2
Yolanda Kerrigan & Swati Onawale, NSW, Australia, Jul 2015
Some hotels were too small and congested, very impressed with hotel at Innsbruck and San Marino. Some included dinner's very were bad- Switzerland hotel served us Chicken schnitzel that was uncooked and awful. Our tour director Mr. Luigi and Driver Vincenzo were excellent. The pacing of tour and information received was brilliant. The included tour read more package felt was inadequate, if we hadn't included the extra excursion than we don't get to see many important things. The tour guides at France and Vatican very not knowledgeable, we didn't get to see much in St. Peter's of Vatican as the guide didn't take us all around the church.
