Health and Safety Protocols for Globus Tours
Today's world has changed, but what remains certain is Globus' commitment to guest safety, comfort and peace-of-mind while traveling with us. To that end, Globus has established a worldwide Assurance program, with enhanced on-trip protocols and procedures, to ensure the health – and happiness – of guests throughout their travels with us.
It all starts with Globus' Global Health & Safety Team, dedicated to ensuring that cleanliness of all operations exceeds today’s travel standards—from start to finish. The following areas address Globus' commitment to providing a safe and clean environment for guests.
A SAFE & WARM WELCOMEGlobus will enact new tour check-in procedures and pre-trip health screenings to offer guests a safe start to their journey, including adherence to social distancing requirements.
BLENDING CULTURAL PROXIMITY WITH SOCIAL DISTANCEGlobus will ensure safe distances for guests throughout the journey, on coach and during excursions. This includes providing masks for guests use at any time where social proximity could be an issue as well as the possibility of reducing group sizes, if required. And wireless listening technology – including Globus' Go Beyond Devices in Europe – enables safe distances between guests and other travelers on excursions.
FOCUS ON GUEST AND TEAM MEMBER HEALTHTo ensure a healthy environment for team and guests, Globus will conduct regular temperature checks for both guests and team, and when necessary, masks will be worn by Globus' team members when with guests.
TOUCHING HEARTS, NOT HANDSTraveling with Globus removes many of the “touch points” of travel, including luggage handling, check in/out, expedited entry into attractions and more. Globus are further reducing risk with hands-free service, meaning all self-services replaced by staff, including buffet meals replaced with table service. Globus will also ensure hand sanitizing is available throughout each trip, on coach and in hotels.
COMMITMENT TO CLEANAs a part of Globus' commitment to clean, Globus is requiring enhanced cleaning procedures with hotel partners, on motorcoaches, vehicles and throughout every trip, including additional daily disinfecting procedures that go above-and-beyond already strict health and safety procedures.
PARTNERS IN DISCOVERY AND IN HEALTHGlobus has strict health and safety protocols, which have been in place for years, focused on ensuring all aspects of operation- from vehicles and equipment used on trip to excursions and hotel procedures. This process will continue with new, elevated health and safety checks, to maintain their promise that each touch-point on tours and cruises are considered in their commitment to guest and team member well-being.

Question: Is there Free shuttle service from the Airport to the hotel>
Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?
Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?
The tour package offered by Globus was very well put together and everything was very much to my satisfaction.
Our Italian Escape 2018 trip exceeded our expectations. Silvio, our local travel guide was personable, highly knowledgeable and extremely helpful in ensuring that all of the group's needs were met. Sandro, our driver was very professional and courteous and our vehicle very well maintained. Our accommodations were to our expectations and in great locations which allowed us to go for walks during the evenings. Our travel guides at all sightseeing locations were also highly knowledgeable and passionate about their subject matter. We highly recommend the optional tours and meals offered as they are all well worth it. We were able to visit every site we were interested in and then some. Just a warning to those that may have mobility issues, there is a lot of walking, stairs (some difficult) and uneven surfaces. If you want a worry free trip where everything is taken care of down to the last detail, this is it...a true vacation. Upon arrival, we were met at the airport in Rome by a guide and transported to our hotel where we were met by our travel guide who remained with us throughout the week. On our last day, we were picked up by water taxi at our hotel in Venice and taken to the airport where we were met by another guide who ensured we received our boarding passes and checked in our luggage. Looking forward to our next trip!!!
