Britain Sampler Reviews

The tour director, Oshan Mahoney, was great very friendly. Driver Julian was very skilled. Overall tour was great to get some insights. But the accommodations were really below par, the hotels were really dated, some of the hotels are really dirty in the bathroom.

Small group tour through England, Wales and Scotland. It was awesome! Great bunch of people just wanting to have a good time. Most hotels are located in the city centre however some need a revamp. Highlight for me was Scotland, I am already planning my return. Kinky Boots on my last night was the perfect way to end the tour. Highly recommended.

First time traveller with Globus and based on my experience I would travel with them again. Excellent organisation, hotels as expected with a mix of in top location and slightly out of town. Small extras like a quick stop to take a photo at the England/Scotland border sign and little treats made for a wonderful trip. Everyone kept to the schedule. Fast ...read more paced, but that is what we wanted/expected from the sampler....so we can come back to our favourite spots in the future.

Tour was just a 'Taste' to encourage you to go back. I wouldn't go to Edinburgh when the 'Fringe Festival' is on because the city is too crowded.

Thoroughly enjoyed the entire tour. The tour guide was very informative and although the tour took in all the sights we wanted to see, there was still sufficient downtime to unwind and relax. The coach was always clean and although my husband is tall he had plenty of leg room. The hotels were of good quality but the air conditioning was not cold enough ...read more for us (a very minor critique). Our Europe trip took in several Globus tours, several transfers and extra hotel stays. We did not experience 1 problem. Well done Globus and well done Georgie at Global Journeys.

The tour was very fast-paced as it covered a lot of ground in the six days, but that was expected. Both the driver (Mark) and tour guide (Paul) were great. Paul was a fountain of information and nothing was ever too much trouble. Mark's driving was great - able to take alternate routes when necessary. I tend to be a nervous passenger and I've never ...read more felt so safe! Paul was both entertaining and informative. I would have loved to spend more time at some of the places we visited, but understood the time constraints. It was unfortunate that the tour that would've given me the time I wanted simply was available on the dates I could travel. But all in all - it was a fantastic trip.

Georgie responded to our internet enquiry within 24 hours and came up with some great ideas for our itinerary. The tour was fast paced, but this is what we expected. It is a lot to do in 6 days. Our driver and guide were exceptional and I can't wait to get back to London to do a longer tour. Our experience with Global Journeys was second to none. Nothing ...read more was too much trouble for Georgie to organise. I can highly recommend Global Journeys to any prospective traveller.
