What our clients are saying about their Special Interest tours
“One of the most poignant, thought provoking experiences I have had”
Tilly & Kenneth - VIC, Australia Jun 2019
I’m a seasoned traveller and this tour was one of the most poignant, thought provoking experiences I have had. The wonderful guide Francis told us stories about each town, cemetery, monument and field as we visited them. We shed silent tears together at the Menin Gate as they played the last post, we smiled at the stories of mateship, we were awestruck at the many tales of bravery by ordinary Australians so far from home, the school in Fromelles that has the huge sign in the playground “We will
...read more never forget Australia“. I was a proud Aussie when visiting the new Sir John Monash Centre at Villers-Bretonneux. I shed the most tears at the new statue of Don’t Forget Me Cobber a call made to a chap going out into no mans land to bring back his mates. This may all sound sad but it was a wonderful experience that seeped into my soul, it was a privilege to share their stories. Lest We Forget.
“Dixieland & Rhythms ”
Clyde - WA, Australia Jun 2019
I would be happy to tour with Globus again. Highlights were the St Louis Arch, Nashville and Gracelands. Our accommodation was excellent.
“Music and fun tour”
James & Irene - WA, Australia May 2019
We enjoyed this tour, great hotels, fantastic tour director (Brenda Brooks) and a very safe driver (Patrick). All went very smoothly, no problems at all. Many thanks to Hannah at Global Journeys for always being prompt and helpful anytime we contacted her. We would certainly recommend Global Journeys to our friends. Thank you Hannah.
“Fabulous musical tour”
Christine & Arthur - ACT, Australia May 2019
This tour was fabulous. From Nashville to New Orleans so much history, music and fun. We absolutely loved Nashville, if you are into country music may I suggest you arrive a few days before the tour starts as there is so much to see and do. We loved Memphis, Clarksdale and beautiful Greenwood. Visits to the plantations and museums were well organised and a lot of fun. Our tour director Brenda was very professional and organised and Patrick our driver was very tolerant and a gentleman. I highly
