It was a great trip! The tour guide (Michael) was outstanding. He knew his stuff and was simply a delight to be around. Everything went off on time. Relaxing pace. Got to see so much good stuff but still had more than adequate free time. Would definitely recommend using Globus.

I have booked with GlobusGo before and have been very happy with the tours and hotel accommodations. The new app was very useful and easy to maneuver. I recommend GlobusGo to my friends and feel they give a great product for the money.

Good itinerary. Interesting organized sights but also an abundance of free time. Very large group.

Andrew, the tour conductor really made the trip special!
