My complaint is with the tour Director from Globus. Unfortunately, my travel companion was pickpocketed at Kensington palace watching the changing of the garden. we called the Hotel, who hooked us up with the globalist desk. Unfortunately, our tour Director was busy with another person. We talked to a gentleman who was very helpful and said our tour Director would talk to us when we got back to the hotel. That never happened and when trying to talk to him, he said print yourself out of form and I’ll help you fill it out. I responded I didn’t bring my portable printer with me. Luckily our agent from Affordable tours was a wealth of information forwarded phone numbers contacts. Other useful information for us. Unfortunately, the Globus gentleman was of no help during any of the trip. So it’s the first time in 27 that we didn’t tip the tour Director.
