America's Magnificent National Parks 0
America's Magnificent National Parks
Ian and Lyne , VIC, Australia, Sep 2024
Touring the National Parks was brilliant. The tour guide was great as was the driver of our coach. Insight did not disappoint, To see the abundance of wild life so often was an added bonus that we did not anticipate. And of course booking our tour with Global Journeys was brilliant, just like all our previous dealing with them.
Everything about this tour was excellent. Coach was very comfortable, only 1 hotel in Rome was very tiny the rest were good. Tour guide very knowledgeable and caring. The itinerary was just right and not rushed. Global Journeys "Georgie" did an excellent job of our selection process, we'll be going with her next time we book. Insight vacations of course. They're the best.
Britan and Ireland amazing tour 0
Britain & Ireland Discovery
Daniel and Catherine, NSW, Australia, Jun 2024
The Britan and Ireland tour - our second trip back to back with Insight, again exeeded our expectations. Insight Vacations have done an amazing job with this tour too, which we both thoroughly enjoyed.
The tour leader and the driver are great. I'm having a great time. Enjoying the sites seeing for the first time. I really recommend if you want to visit Germany for short period of time.
Would highly recommend this tour, everything ran smoothly. 3

Great itinerary with a broad span of experiences 1
Italian Elegance
Norm and Michele, VIC, Australia, May 2024
We loved the variety of experiences on this trip. From the busy sights of Rome, Florence, Pisa and Venice to the charm of Lake Maggiore, Cinque Terre and the grandeur of the Dolomites, we saw Italy at its best. The pace was just right and tour guide excellent. The only downside was rather repetitive fixed menus for dinner in the early stages of the read more trip, which improved as we moved away from the busiest centres. Organisation by Global Journeys was great and everything clicked into place.
Country Roads of Southern Italy & Sicily 2

Trevor and Sandra, VIC, Australia, May 2024
Thanks to Hannah from Global Journeys for organising the tour for us. You made it easy for us. This is the third trip with Insight and everything was well organised and comfortable with a good Tour Director and Driver in a new spacious coach. This tour showed other parts of Italy/Sicily we have not seen on other Italy tours. Highlights were getting read more to see the history going back to Greece invasion in BC times and Arib influences. Mt Etna is amazing. Would recommend this tour with Insight and Global Journeys for all their help.
We had 29 on our tour and we all got along. Quite often we would pair up with other couple to sit with at breakfast or dinner. We had a lot of fun with the other guests and everyone had a good sense of humour including our tour guide, Maja and the driver Laszlo. We had unseasonal warm weather in Copenhagen, Stockholm and most of Finland until we got read more to the Arctic Circle. We saw some amazing things and the scenery was breathtaking. Well worth it.
We enjoyed the scenery and lovely towns and villages. Too many long coach days though. Would have loved a more enthusiastic , passionate tour guide with some French music on the coach on the long travel days. Too many optional excursions that should be included like orientation walk of Nice and Aix en Provence.
Good tour made even better by Tour Director 1
Italian Elegance
Bill and Yvonne, NSW, Australia, Apr 2024
Overall a good variation of what Italy offers from busy crowded Rome and Florence to seaside Santa Margherita, stunning Dolomites and finishing in Venice. Having done numerous Insight trips it is the combo of Tour Director and Driver who can really turn a group of strangers into a travelling family and TD Barbara and driver Gian Lucca were exceptional in every aspect.
We have arrived home from our Italian adventure, after a stopover in Singapore on the way home. Both Susan and I were very impressed with the Italian Elegance tour. In a short time we packed in the history and busyness of Rome and Venice, the beauty of Lake Maggiore and Tuscany, the wow of the Ligurian coast and lots and lots of snow in Cortina. We read more were lucky to have a good group joining us. Insight Vacations provided an excellent tour guide and a high standard of accommodation. Thank you for your efficient handling of our bookings, travel documents and tour information. Travel planning is much easier when all the details have been taken care of. Your guidance was important to us and we are both very grateful. Hopefully it will not be too long until one or both of us will be contacting you to book another trip.
Fantastic trip with lots of things to see without feeling rushed. Our Insight Vacations guide was fantastic, as was our driver. Lots of wonderful memories created. Fantastic for sightseeing and amazing food. We felt that we had good value for money with this tour. We booked three tours of Italy and Switzerland using travel agent Global Journeys. They read more were professional and responded to our queries promptly. Would highly recommend the tours as well as the travel agency.
This tour was an excellent way to see Spain and Portugal and made even more delightful by our Tour Director Denise Lamas whose knowledge of the countries and their history and customs was exceptional as well as her kindness and friendliness to all. There were 36 on the Tour and as a solo traveller I was given a friendly welcome by all. Easter week read more in Spain was very special and in spite of the crowds there was an atmosphere of unity everywhere. The highlights of the tour were the visit to Seville and the perfume of the orange blossom, the snow capped Sierras and the Alhambra, the lunch with village ladies in their homes and of course the amazing Segrada Familia by Gaudi in Barcelona. I would recommend this tour to anyone who would like to visit Spain and Portugal.
This was the most wonderful, enjoyable and most memorable tour. While some of the organised guides could have thought about our need to eat...and shorten their chat...other than that...wish there was some more free time as quoted, in Lucerne...before the shops shut. 🥲 Faith was by far the best tour guide!
Travelling with Insight was totally stress free. Our fabulous tour director saw to every little detail and his suggestions for restaurants and optional tours were spot on. The hotels we stayed in were great and our group got along really well. It was relaxing , fun and informative at the same time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Global Journeys and read more Insight for future adventures.
Splendours of Egypt guaranteed 2
Splendours of Egypt (Winter) (Small Group)
Warwick and Donna, ACT, Australia, Oct 2023
Insight Vacations through Spring Tours provided a memorable 12 day, small group, Splendours of Egypt tour that included 7 days cruising on the Nile in a boat with a capacity of 120 passengers. While the MS Nile Odessa is a bit dated the river cruising experience was enjoyable, noting it is the Egyptian civilisation sites that were our primary reason read more for travelling to Luxor and Aswan. While a day trip to Abu Simbel (from Aswan) was an option extra - we highly recommend it - the Abu Simbel site will blow your mind - Ramses the Great (Ramses II) had a taste for grandeur. Our Tour Director was exceptional, which makes a huge difference to one’s experience. The pace of the tour was excellent - nay faster and it would have been less enjoyable and unable to spend sufficient time each site to appreciate them for what they are - marvels. Finally thank you the Hannah and the team at Global Journeys.
Interesting, packed journey through some of the stunning smaller centres of Italy 1
Country Roads of Italy (Small Group)
Pam and Janet, NSW, Australia, Sep 2023
Our guide Federika Nandini was a delight, who kept a keen caring eye over all. Our driver was careful and managed to manoeuvre a large bus on some tight and potentially dangerous roads. Local guides were excellent. There was a considerable amount of walking each day which will test the less fit. Hilltop towns are just that and are challenging on the read more knees! Meals provided were usually over catered and in noisy interiors. Optional excursions were varied . Some lovely hotels were included but not able to be enjoyed as we didn’t stay long enough to enjoy.
Wonderful tour through beautiful Türkiye with the best tour director and driver. 1
Treasures of Turkey (Small Group)
Susan, NSW, Australia, Sep 2023
Highly recommend a small-group tour with Insight Vacations. It was a worry free holiday with great accommodation and food. The tour director was fabulous and the coach was super comfortable with WiFi and bottled water.
What a treat this tour was. The support from Global Journeys was exemplary and the tour itself just amazing. Great hotels, brilliant guide, top class hotels and an experience of a lifetime.
