Question: What does LF mean in the descriptions
Question: How many suitcases can I take with me on my trip?
Question: Is Airfare Included in the Price?
The trip was awesome. No complaints. I understand 2 night stay at the Grand Canyon is not usually part of the trip. The extra day gave us time to relax and tour the area on our own. Continue offering the 2 nights. Mark and Henry were wonderful The little bits of information were a great help. Maureen was also wonderful.
Globus Tours lived up to all that was promised Sven, our tour director was knowledgeable,efficient and personable. He made the trip enjoyable for all.
Sven, our tour guide was excellent. Very knowledgeable and helpful thoughtout the trip. I thoroughly enjoyed my trip to the SW. It was more than I expected and a very reasonable package for what we received.
This tour was amazing. My husband and I traveled extensively and this was one of the best. Our tour guide Derek was knowledgeable, patient, and over all fantastic. Will definitely book with Globus again Nina at Affordable Tours was great. We changed our minds at least five time as to time and when to travel. She was great. Never got frustrated with our changes. Would definitely use Affordable Tours as well again.
Derek was the best tour guide we've had - provided exceptional service. He identified alternatives when bad weather prevented us from touring Monument Valley as planned.
We recently returned from our 9 day bus tour of the Canyon Country Adventure booked with Affordable Tours, traveled with Globus Tours. Christine the Affordable Tour agent was very helpful in planning this trip answering all of our questions and making last minute arrangements for excursions and transportation to and from the airports. We are very happy with Globus, the hotels were excellent, our tour director Christofer was outstanding, knowledgeable, courteous and friendly always attending to all our needs and questions. This was a memorable trip to Grand Canyon, Bryce Canyon, Zion National Park, and Monument Valley.
The trip was better than expected. We had a great tour director- Jeremy.
We enjoyed this trip very much. Everything was excellent, including the tour director, the driver, the pace of the tour, hotels, meals, and scenery. Every day the National Parks scenery got better and better. Our most enjoyable tour since our Alaska cruise and land tour. Would definitely recommend it!
Highly recommend
Simply amazing...each day was unique. The canyons were beautiful!
The trip exceeded our expectations. Such beauty and grandeur. And Globus made the trip easy, interesting and enjoyable. Would definitely recommend to anyone.
Outstanding service from our Tour Director from Globus. Made everyone feel at home and was very knowledgeable of the areas in our tour. This has been the BEST Globus tour that we have experienced over the few years with this company. Food, transportation, and hotels were top drawer. DON'T miss out on the Globus Canyon Country Adventure.
As promised and more. Very professionally run with the tour guide and driver being first rate. A great trip.
Could of done without Monument Valley and had an extra day at Lake Powell or at the Best Western at Bryce.
Our tour guide and driver were fantastic! They made our journey fun and knowledgeable!
Although the Yavapai lodge at the Grand Canyon was a bit "rustic" with no air conditioning, it was still tolerable. The other hotels were top of the line! Every day was a "treat for the eyes" - unbelievably beautiful country and tours like the Antelope Slot Canyon was something out of the ordinary and so glad we experienced.
This was our 4th Globus tour and looking forward toward to our next. Our tour guide was excellent.
Our trip was wonderful. Our tour guide was excellent as well. We would definitely book a Globus Tour in the future.
this was by far an exceptional experience...everything was top rate, especially our tour director. Since Globus no longer gives out name tags at the beginning of the tour, he put our names above our seats on the bus, which gave us a unique way to learn peoples' names. Only complaint is that there was not enough time available on the last day to explore Zion.
The rooms at the Yavapai Lodge in the Grand Canyon were antiquated and dark. The food provided at breakfast was terrible, cold scrambled eggs , a cold pancake, cardboard tasting potatoes. The other accommodations were very nice. Our guide far exceeded our expectations and our driver was the best driver we could have hoped for. Together they made the perfect team.
Tour was wonderful. EXCEPT for The Rainbow Room Restaurant at Lake Powell Resorts. Since dinner was included in out tour we received the worst service I have ever received in a restaurant. After ordering dinner, we waited over 1 1/2 hours for our food to arrive. During this time we never saw our server. One of the guests at our table ordered a soft drink and did not receivd it until after an hour and a half when our dinners arrived. Our concerns were met with sarcasm by restaurant management. The manager offered to buy us a round of drinks. We ordered our drinks and were still charged for them. The manager was nowhere to be found when it was time to pay our check. all in all, there is not a rating low enough to give to the Rainbow Room. Guests who were paying for their dinners were treated cordially and their meals arrived in a timely fashion. I raelize that The Rainbow Room must be "The Only Game In Town" but Globus should use their buying power to get this mess straightened out. Horrible, horrible experience. Many other guests had the same experience!
This was our first escorted tour and we thought it was a wonderful experience. It was jam packed with great experiences but allowed for optional excursions. Our helicopter ride to Tower Butte in Page, Az was spectacular.
This trip offered more then the package advertised. The tour director and bus driver were very professional. We had a great experience and really enjoyed the trip.
ALLl was great and very helpful. Globus far exceeded my expectations.
this was the first tour I ever went on and would do a tour again. our tour director was wonderful. much nicer than if I drove myself as he gave us such knowledge. they knew where to go, where to have bathroom breaks and where to eat. they were very organized. I always knew what was going on. the bus was new and very comfortable.
This was an awewsome trip! Saw so much in a short time. It was a faster pace than I expected. Not much down time for a vacation, but I guess it has to be that way to see everything. We did want to see everythig.
Very Satisfied.
Our trip exceeded our expectations. We had a fabulous trip and would recommend Affordable Tours and Globus to anyone.
We enjoyed our trip so much. We have memories that will last a lifetime. Thank You
Everything about the tour was excellent. The agent was extremely helpful to us since we never had been on a tour like this before. Even when I scratched my head and thought "this can't be true", he was right on the money. The Globus people were as good as he said they would be. Our every need was addressed and we had a wonderful time.
