Worry free tour through South Island, New Zealand Signature South IslandMarls & John, VIC, Australia, May 2026
Hannah from Global Journeys once again helped us with fantastic suggestions and ease of booking our Grand Pacific Tour. Everything was taken care of, we never had to lift a case or worry about any part of the tour. We had great accommodation, excellent meals and saw all the highlights of the South Island. Vicki our Tour Captain was amazing, nothing read more was too much trouble and Craig our coach driver was funny, very informative about places we visited and most importantly an excellent driver. Would highly recommend Global Journeys and Grand Pacific Tours.
It was a very good organized tour, with a lot of information about the places we had seen being on the road. Our tour guide Szuszanna Luka was our tour guide and source of all possible information. The driver was excellent. The local guides provided a lot of interesting information. The only thing that I was not happy were some of the hotels that we read more stayed during the tour. Yes I would look for Cosmos offering tours if decided to get another tour.
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.
Wonderful Music Tour Chicago to New Orleans Rhythms of the RoadDawn, NSW, Australia, May 2026
The sights and sounds exceeded my expectations and all on board seemed to be having a wonderful time. The coach driver Was excellent as was the tour guide. The hotels were of good standing in good locations.The hand made modern quilt museum at Paducah excellent and a ride inside the St Louis Arch amazing.
This is an outstanding tour in all respects. Excellent itinerary, good accommodation, very knowledgable tour leadership and local guides. All in a small group. Highly recommended. Good support in getting it organised from the Global Journeys team.
Grace was very helpful in arranging the booking and final details. We had a group of 18 on our tour. We saw a lot of interesting places which were definitely worth visiting and it was an unexpected delight to see Lake Eyre full of water. The flies were bad, so a fly net is recommended even for April/May, and we only received an email from the AAT read more King tour guide about it after we had arrived there. Wilpena Pound and Arkaroola were definite highlights and extra nights there would have been desirable in hindsight. The 4WD jeep tour at Arkaroola accessed a very remote area and was spectacular. There were too many fries served at lunches and dinners (even at the winery lunch) for my liking, and I feel that the preordered meals lacked details (ie, chicken, beef, vegetarian). It would help if vegetarian indicated is it rice, pasta, salad? especially for the cost of the trip. Most breakfasts were at 7 am and departures at 745 am so there were no super early departure times. And Coober Pedy is definitely worth visiting.
