Scenic Parks - USA     , QLD, Australia, Aug 2025
This was a great tour which covered a variety of National Parks in eight US States. Spectacular scenery and interesting historical sites made for a memorable experience. The Trafalgar Tour Director was well organised and knowledgeable and there were no negative aspects to the tour. Hannah from Global Journeys was as efficient as ever, making the booking ...read more process streamlined and simple.
Tropical North Queensland   , Australia, Aug 2025
The trip overall was wonderful. The driver was awesome and very knowledgeable about all aspects of Ithe places we saw. He even had to do some repairs to the coach. My main concern was that the travel details from Travelmarvel arrived too late. We were both packed and I had actually started my holiday having left home in Melbourne to Brisbane. We ...read more then realized we had to repack in a different case as a hard case would not be accepted. I also did not receive my name badge as this came after I left home. We were also not given the opportunity to pre book for the extra trips; eg. eco tour on ferry and the helicopter ride.
Ultimate Alaska & Yukon     , NSW, Australia, Aug 2025

The landscapes were breathtaking, and the remoteness only added to the authenticity of the experience—it’s exactly what you’d hope for when exploring such untouched parts of the world. Our guide, Kip, was absolutely fantastic—knowledgeable, approachable, and passionate about the ...read more region. The bus driver also did a great job, making long stretches of travel feel comfortable and safe.

Yes, there were some long days on the bus, but that’s part of covering so much ground in such vast territory, and it gave us a chance to take in the sweeping scenery along the way. Overall, it was a memorable journey through a stunning part of the world, one that I’d happily recommend to anyone wanting to experience the true north in all its rugged beauty. GJ: What a great photo!
Near perfect Scandinavia   , NSW, Australia, Aug 2025
Near perfect. Tour Director (and Driver) were the most organised we have experienced. Spectacular countryside and enchanting historical cities and towns. Just be prepared to pay a lot for any snack or coffee or meal that you buy.
Our tour had a wide range of ages, some of whom had mobility issues, but his not uncommon and their needs were accommodated ...read more with minimal impact on the others. Two other things worth mentioning: English is the second language in Scandinavia and credit cards are accepted everywhere, so long as you have a functional PIN.
