A Beautiful Sightseeing Honeymoon
Italian Escape
Mr. and Mrs. Melton, IN, United States, Jan 2026
As 2 people who have never been outside of the U.S. my wife and I decided to visit a foreign country for the first time, together for our Honeymoon. Globus make the booking and touring process extremely easy and hassle-free. They also provided us with an amazing price for a week long tour through Italy. Visiting the historic and beautiful towns of Rome, read more Florence, Venice, Assisi, and Pisa with guided tours was a once in a lifetime experience, and all we went to do is go back. We will definitely be booking our next travel through Global Journeys!
We did the above trip with Intrepid in Jan 2026. There were only 6 of us on our tour so it was nice & intimate. Our guide Stefan was great, always welcomed us on the bus with a tale about the elves or trolls or sometimes with a sing song as well as being a wealth of knowledge on the history of Iceland etc. Accommodation was of a good standard but the read more Foss Hotel Glacier Lagoon was outstanding. I know most people do the Golden Circle but do yourself a favour & book a tour that also includes the Snaefellsnes Peninsula, you won't be disappointed.
The only comment I'd make is that I thought a farewell dinner should have been included, first time I've been on a tour where it hasn't been, however Stefan organised one at our expense (Iceland is VERY expensive). Our Consultant Hannah Campbell was great, always got back to me promptly whenever I asked a question. Our experience with Hannah & Global Journeys was such a good one that we currently have another 2 active bookings in the system. Would 100% recommend Intrepid, Hannah & Global Journeys to anyone.

Imperial and Impressive
Prague, Vienna and Budapest (Winter)

The trip was fabulous, the cities explored were so imperial and impressive. Our Tour Director Agnes was wonderful, she knew everything about all the cities and places of where to go in your spare time. She was also thoughtful and attentive to all the travellers. Highly recommend Trafalgar and Global Journeys for an amazing adventure. Hotels were excellent.
Morocco with a view
New Year's in Morocco
Katherine, MD, United States, Dec 2025
Morocco has a lot to offer. The people are wonderful, the scenery was just stunning. We had sunshine, snow, wind and a little rain and was even blessed with a rainbow in the desert. I can’t say enough about our guide Omar. He was able to answer all of our questions, he treated us to local music and displayed his musical talents. If there was any read more issues he was always there to fix them. It was a great trip.
Winter Xmas
Winter Wonderland
Lorraine , NSW, Australia, Dec 2025
Destinations, bus comfort & top hotels made this tour exceptional. Included meals were always top class & guide was friendly, knowledgeable & helpful. Only negative was that 1 night stops made trip seemed rushed - 2 nights in each location would have provided more leisurely experience.
Wendy Woo's Christmas in Japan tour was amazing. It did rely on a lot of bus rides and a couple of train rides but that enabled us to see places far and wide. The hotels we stayed at were all of a high standard, with most being centrally located. We were exposed to a variety of Japanese foods and all meals breakfast, lunch and dinner, were included read more in the cost. Highlights included: seeing Mt Fuji clearly; dressing in kimonos and making sweets during a tea ceremony, and feeding deer in Nara.
