A SAFE & WARM WELCOME

Globus will conduct tour check-in procedures and pre-trip health screenings to offer guests a safe start and peace of mind throughout the journey. This includes proof of vaccination for all guests.

BLENDING CULTURAL PROXIMITY WITH SOCIAL DISTANCE

There may be times on tour or on the motorcoach when social distancing is required. We will take care in assuring any local guidelines are followed in a safe and comfortable way for our guests. For any cases where masks are required due to local guidelines, we ask that guests bring their own approved N95 (FFP2) masks for their own comfort and safety.

Additionally, regular guest checks are conducted, and, when required by local guidelines, masks will be worn by our guests and by our team when accompanying guests. In all other cases, masks are optional for guests.

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.

We are very satisfied with the Avalon river cruise. The ship personnel were very professional and friendly and provided everything we needed to make this trip extra special. Accommodations were comfortable, meals were excellent, and the on shore excursions were well-organized and enjoyable. In summary, we would not hesitate in booking another voyage with Avalon.

As pleased as always with Avalon. Very courteous and professional while making you feel special and comfortable.

The cruise was wonderful. The only thing that made us a little uncomfortable was the age of the other cruise passengers. I know that you cannot control this matter, however, we felt isolated due to the elderly clientele. We were able to find one couple that was in our age bracket. We pretty much ignored the other passengers and enjoyed the trip.
