The Red Centre was a Spectacular Expedition
Red Centre Spectacular (Expedition)
Heather and William, VIC, Australia, Jun 2026
Thank you Tracey for assisting us with our Journey Beyond Red Centre Spectacular tour we had an amazing holiday. We enjoyed out time on The Ghan with the delicious food and beverages and the off train experiences in Katherine cruising through the Nitmiluk Gorge and exploring Coober Pedy by bus. However our highlight was the 7 night Outback Spirit tour read more exploring Alice Springs, Kings Canyon and Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park and all the interesting places we stopped along the way. Our tour leader Andy with his wealth of knowledge and Justin driving us safely to each destination made for a truly amazing experience we will never forget.

Graeme and Sandra, VIC, Australia, May 2026
A big thank you to Georgie for, once again, her exceptional management of our booking. This is our fourth journey booked through Global Journeys and each time their service has been first class. Our Scenic Tour to Japan was beyond our expectations. The majority of our accommodation was superb, the meals were unbelievable and our tour director, Yumi, read more was very enthusiastic, well organised, informative and caring. The itinerary offered a good variety of sightseeing and activities at a moderate pace. Highly recommended.

Ultimate Grand Pac Experience
Ultimate Rail, Cruise and Coach
Michael & Rosemarie, NSW, Australia, May 2026
My wife and I have just returned to Australia after spending 19 nights on the Ultimate Rail, Cruise & Coach tour of New Zealand's North & South Islands (May 5th - 23rd) under the care and guidance of our excellent Coach Captain, Craig Cassidy. From the time of booking our trip to arriving back home, the experience & journey was absolutely fantastic. read more Our travel agent, Hannah Perry (Global Journeys) was attentive, prompt and helpful with our questions & preparations for the trip. From the point of arrival in Auckland, we felt privileged & valued and Craig very quickly made us feel at ease with the processes and logistics of small coach touring.
Whilst New Zealand in itself was spectacular, diverse and breathtaking, the curated activities & excursions combined with the wide range of optional extras, which dovetailed seamlessly into the tour, made the whole journey even more memorable and enjoyable. Accommodation standards and food quality were uniformly excellent and the extra level of care & attention we received, e.g. bags taken to and from our rooms, early or priority entries into attractions and the high level of relevant & interesting information from Craig meant that the tour was totally stress & hassle free.
Our small group of 20 bonded beautifully over the holiday allowing us to spend quality time together but also for individuals & couples to explore independently. We would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at Grand Pac involved in compiling this excellent tour, but with a special mention for Craig, in recognition not only of all the hard work we saw him do but the mountain of work he did behind the scenes - his professionalism, patience & humour were deeply appreciated. We will have no hesitation in recommending Grand Pacific to our friends & family. This trip will live in our memories for a very long time.

Thoroughly enjoyed travelling by train around Switzerland with Cosmos as it was uncomplicated, experienced tour leader, good numer of passangers (had 26 - max is 31) relaxing, amazing scenery as we were extremely fortunate to have great weather.
