Trip Reviews (17) View All Most Recent 'Eastern US & Canada Discovery' Reviews
Organised experiences were well balanced with time on our own to explore as we wished, with guidance from Matt. The hotels were all of a high standard and well situated within easy walking distance to major places of interest.
We were very fortunate to be in an unusually small group of only 16 who all got on well with each other, making the trip that much more enjoyable. Thanks Hannah from Global Journeys who assisted with our booking of this and the Globus tour of the Rockies that we did after it.
We enjoyed all the stops on this tour and would recommend it as a good introduction to read more major eastern USA cities and eastern Canada.
The travel group was 40 mainly Australians, with the others from New Zealand, UK and South Africa. Everyone got on well with each other and that also made the trip most enjoyable. We would recommend this tour especially to see the Fall colour in October and will be looking at other Globus tours for 2019.
The pace of the tour was very good, the accommodation was very good with Delta Group Hotels and Lord Elgin being some of the best hotels. The inclusive home-made dinner with the Amish family was one of the best dinners I have ever had. It beat the meals served by the top rated restaurants. The apple pie was so delicious! Bravo to Globus to have made this tour one of the best tours I have done! Thanks to Georgie Walpole of Global Journeys who helped us with the booking, gave us a great discount and ensured the booking was smooth.
