We mostly enjoyed our Trafalgar Best of Switzerland tour. We had a great guide, Rob, and saw everything we set out to see. Unfortunately our hotel in Zermat was a big let down. The original itinerary had us staying “in town” at Mirabeau Hotel… which would have been great location wise. Instead we found ourselves at the Hotel Hemizeus. Hotel Hemizeus read more is a long way out from the main shopping area… so no restaurants. Also no footpath, and taxis are very expensive in Zermat.
I’m a first time Costsaver traveler usually go with Trafalgar but I thought I’ll give them a go. I’m travelling solo and we had the best group and had the best time. The trip was wonderful, I was a bit hesitant that it would be too rushed being the cheaper level of travel, but I didn’t feel like it was. Yes I will agree the hotels are not the same standard read more as Trafalgar but in saying that have had some dodgy ones with Trafalgar. The hotel rooms were on the small side but I’m travelling solo so it didn’t matter only one place I felt it was ridiculously small. The rest were fine comfortable and clean. I would travel with Costsaver again. The itinerary was great and saw some wonderful things. Some of the optional experiences were pricey and three in particular I didn’t feel they were worth that amount of money. Global Journeys were fabulous as usual.
I can’t say anything bad about any part of this absolutely amazing holiday full of natural beauty , right from the initial booking with Global journeys, everything perfect about the bus tour from the amazing tour director to the courteous, caring bus driver with many impressive driving skills. The incredible hotels and I can’t begin to speak of the read more super impressive scenery…. Time of year, from May 9 to 28th… PERFECT!!! It even SNOWED ( first time for us) Yay!!! Thanks to all!!!
This has to be the most amazing trip that we’ve ever done. Thank you to Georgie for organising our trip and thank you to Alex tour director and Arpi our coach driver. The highlight for me was above the Arctic circle and visiting North Cape the most northern part of mainland Europe. It snowed for us which was fantastic. Geiranger was amazing and the read more fjords well just stunning. Photos don’t do it justice. It’s something you have to go and see for yourself.
Easy traveling through Western Canada 0
Iconic Rockies and Western Canada
Janette and Trevor, QLD, Australia, May 2025
Our tour was very well organized. Our tour guide and bus driver were excellent. The group were very good which made for a great holiday. We enjoyed all the beautiful places we visited - a couple of long days on the coach that were expected but our guide broke them up with visits to small towns and comfort stops. All in all, a fabulous holiday.

Country Roads of Southern Italy & Sicily
Diana and Graeme, VIC, Australia, May 2025
We enjoyed this tour along the country roads of Southern Italy and Sicily, with a cohesive group of people from the U.S, Canada and Australia. Our tour guide, Mark, was highly rated, as well as the individual local guides. We transferred to Insight this time over Trafalgar in order to upgrade the position of our hotels to more central locations. We read more were most disappointed with hotels placed a distance far away from central locations. We were expecting a higher standard from Insight.
Enjoyed the overall trip Tour Guide Danilo was great…found it very full on with some days lots of time on the coach. Disappointed with meals included in price by Trafalgar and found Optional Extras very expensive with Australian dollar rate. Still had good time and met great people but also think Trafalgar should organise something for those not doing read more the Optional Extras (in the day) rather than just "free time".
April/May was a great time to travel through Croatia. The weather was lovely and it was not too busy. We were lucky to have Greg as our guide as he was very knowledgeable and made sure everything ran smoothly. There were many highlights but we especially enjoyed visiting families in their local settings. It gave us a better feel of the real Croatia.

Gordon and Denise, QLD, Australia, Apr 2025
Firstly, worry free time with the booking process through Global Journeys. The tour director Sharon was organised and always helpful. The hotels were all lovely, food delicious, too much to choose from for breakfasts ( yay, no having to do it ourselves) but we had plenty of exercise so that helped with the too much eating!!😆
There was so much to enjoy, read more anyone would be totally happy with it all I’m sure! The time of year was perfect, not so busy with lots of tourists, the weather lovely, just right for us travellers! Perfect to travel with Insight, great to not have to handle our luggage , plenty of space in the comfy bus and the drivers are always courtous and safe drivers. We’ve done 3 separate tours, the UK covering 4 countries. The Bohemian covering 5 countries and Scandinavia covering 4 countries…. All went perfectly!!!

This trip was great thanks to Georgie and Sharon our tour director and our coach driver Tibor. We love going with Insight Vacations, they work everything out so well. Love Cesky Krumlov and Prague. Auschwitz very moving beyond words, bring tissues. Krakow fantastic and the salt mine was definitely a highlight. Everything about this trip I loved.
Travelling with Trafalgar through Europe was amazing. We saw so many cities, icons, monuments and stunning views.
From the driver to the Travel Director, everything was carefully thought out and we had plenty of free time thrown in.
All of the hotels we stayed at were fabulous, comfortable beds and great hospitality. Highly recommend Trafalgar, can’t w read moreait to plan my next trip!

This was a memorable tour, made hassle free as usual by Hannah at Global Journeys. Trafalgar was at their usual high standard.
Great trip, highlights being Iguassu Falls & Machu Picchu. Downsides, 4 internal flights which involved long hours at airports, plus overly priced Choice Experiences. Both Travel Directors very knowledgeable & passionate about their respective countries. Very customer service oriented.

Debra, VIC, Australia, Mar 2025
Trip was magical, so much snow very very pretty. Our tour guide Maria and driver Tomak added to the whole experience. A great bunch of fellow travellers and we saw the lights several times. Highlights are so many. Top of the world at North Cape was incredible. The huskies, the reindeer’s - all beautiful!

Winter Wonderland
Elizabeth and Daniel, NSW, Australia, Dec 2024
Booked through Global journeys for our Insight Vacation Tour and did not disappoint. GJ were so helpful with answering questions and helping get us organised. The tour with Insight was a winter wonderland snapshot. It snowed and the scenery and experiences were magical. The accommodation was excellent. We made friends with other people on the tour. read more Lots of experiences to cherish.
Booking was fast and easy. Amazing tour, but fast paced with early morning and evening arrivals due the time of year. Perhaps this tour is more suited for spring than winter as longer days of light would have enabled us to see more of the destination along the route and apon arrival. Lots of fun and excursion options.
Amazing, enjoyable experience from beginning to end. Tour guide, hotel and itinerary were excellent. Will hope to travel there again.

Andy & Selvi, NSW, Australia, Nov 2024
Overall we had a good holiday with the small group which we enjoyed, The Travel Director and both guides were extremely good & very helpful & accommodations were excellent & our coach, drivers were also very friendly. Our only oncern was when we went to Sun world BA NA Hills. The Travel director didn't come with us so we struggled & due to severe weather read more conditions at the hill we were unable to see all the attractions. Looking forward next tour with Global Journeys in 2025.
This tour is a great way to see the wonders of ancient Egypt. The Valley of the Kings excursion was a highlight for us, plus the (optional but worth the $$$) trip to Abu SImbel. Cairo and its traffic are chaotic but the Marriott was an excellent respite. Internal flights were OK, but the security setup at airports can be challenging so make sure you read more allow lots of time before departure. Georgie and GJ were very helpful prior to our journey.
Fantastic East Coast USA and Canada Tour 1
East Coast USA and Canada
Neil and Robyn, Queensland, Australia, Oct 2024
We have just returned from a fantastic Trafalgar tour of the east coast of USA and Canada. We had a terrific time! The itinerary was pretty packed, but we still had plenty of time to ourselves to explore, and never felt pressured to hurry along. There was a great mixture of things to see and do and plenty of rest breaks. October was a great time read more of year to visit Canada with all of the autumn colours. The tour guide we had was marvellous. She was enthusiastic, friendly, fun, knowledgeable, and would help out in any way she could. She made a good trip even better. Global Journeys did a great job booking the tour, including a great price, and gave some great advice and information about flights, extra days, visas etc. We highly recommend them to all of our friends.
