What our clients are saying about their journeys through Central Europe
“A great trip through Europe”
Eileen & Samuel - QLD, Australia Aug 2019
We had a done Cosmos Tour before so decided to go with them again and it didn't disappoint. The tour director was wonderful and organised everything perfectly, we were lucky to get beautiful weather and got to see lots of wonderful castles and palaces that will stay with us forever. This is a very affordable tour and great value for money. The only negative thing I would say is that the hotels are not very central but having said that there is plenty of public transport nearby and Cosmos do provide

“Excellent comprehensive tour of the beautiful sights of Switzerland”
Dale & Robert - WA, Australia Aug 2019
The Country Roads of Switzerland Tour was very comprehensive and well-paced with plenty of 2-3 night stays and offering free time. We enjoyed the train journeys and all the spectacular sights of Switzerland and touching on the Italian lakes. Switzerland is very expensive, especially with the low value of the Australian Dollar and the cost of all the optional excursions made the tour quite expensive but all the excursions added to the experience.
“Globus Munich to Vienna trip”
Jan - WA, Australia Aug 2019
Really enjoyed our trip - Austria was lovely. Appreciated efforts of Global Journeys to get us booked onto the trip. Highlights were the concert in Vienna, Sound of Music Church and trip on Danube. Not impressed with our tour director - sat at the front of the coach and offered very little information about places we were passing through.
“A good introduction to Germany”
Baz - New Zealand Aug 2019
Our tour director was excellent and gave us a lot of information about Germany throughout the tour. The welcome dinner was disappointing in quality but the remaining included meals were much better. We had no complaints regarding the comfort or facilities provided by the hotels. The tour had three relaxed starts and just one very early start so wasn't too tiring. Our driver was very good and the coach comfortable with good leg room. Overall we enjoyed the tour and would use Insight and Global Journeys
