INSIDER JAPAN: 10 Best Japan Tours for 2024

Like many other tour companies, Globus goes a lot of places. But where it really shines is with its focus on creating different tour types to suit different travel styles. Globus tour types include: 

• Small Group Discoveries :   Globus’ small-group departures are offered on all Europe and North America tours. These Small Group Discoveries trips average 20 to 24 travelers (compared to classic tour group average group size of 38). 
• Choice Touring:   Globus is the first escorted tour company to offer this sort of adaptive touring. On select stops on European and North American Choice Touring itineraries, guests can choose from three or four possible excursions (all included in the price). So, for example, while visiting Athens, you can choose a tour of the Acropolis Museum, a trip to the Temple of Poseidon, or a cruise to Aegina Island. Globus has 13 Choice Touring itineraries. 
• Undiscovered Tours :   With its deep-dive approach into lesser-known destinations, Globus’ Undiscovered Tours are ideal for repeat travelers to a destination and anyone looking for a slower, more in-depth experience. 
• Escapes by Globus : Off-season Escapes by Globus tours operate between November and March, and offer both better pricing (on average 30% less than the same tour during high season) and benefits like fewer crowds at popular spots. Globus offers 20 Escapes by Globus itineraries, mostly in Europe. 
• Independence by Globus :  New staring in 2023, Globus now offers a selection of independent city stay vacation packages (in Europe) and independent tours (in farther-flung destinations). This option offers the ease of booking that travelers get on a tour with the flexibility that comes with independent travel.  
• Special Event Tours : Globus also offers tours focused on North America’s iconic celebrations like Tournament of Roses Parade, Albuquerque’s Balloon Fiesta, and Alaska’s Iditarod race. These tours include up-close views and behind-the-scenes experiences. 
• Faith-Based Travel :   Globus offers a range of Faith-Based Vacations that offer a chance to reflect upon centuries of religious history.  These Europe-and-Middle-East-focused Christianity-based itineraries explore sacred locations in the Holy Land, Italy, Spain and Portugal.

Tour Guides

Globus Tour Directors average over 20 years with the company.  Guides’ extensive training includes certification by the destination authority as well as proficiency in multiple languages, (including the local language). And most Tour Directors are from the country in which they tour. 

Inclusions/Extras

Globus tours include nice hotels in central locations, all breakfasts and some additional meals, transportation, included sightseeing with VIP “skip the line” access with experienced local guides, and Local Favorites, which are unique included excursions designed to bring the local culture to life.

Once you’ve booked, Globus kicks off its pre-trip communications to prepare you and build excitement. Pre-trip communications include a Travel Packet, complete with detailed itinerary, schedule and flight information (if flights are booked through Globus or Cosmos), destination information, tips and guidelines on pre-trip requirements and preparation for the destination, and the ability to add optional excursions to trips 90 days or less from the departure date.

GO IN COMFORT: How to Choose the Best Walking Shoes for Travel

Globus also provides access to its Globus GO app, which provides easy access to all tour components, including schedules, hotels, included features, destination information, optional excursions, interactive maps, and more.  This access is provided 30 to 40 days prior to departure.

Loyalty Program

The Globus family of brands (Globus, Cosmos, Avalon River Cruises) offers a Welcome Back Credit for all guests.  Each time you travel on a Globus family of brands vacation, you can earn up to a $250 (per person) Welcome Back Credit to use toward a future vacation.

The amount of credit (per person) on the tour price:

• $2,499 or Less =   You earn $100 credit for a future tour
• $2,500 to $3,499 = $150 credit
• $3,500 to $4,499 = $200 credit

Private Options

Any Globus Europe tour can be converted into a Private Tour with a dedicated Tour Director, private transportation and driver, and personal, professional Local Guides. An additional premium, based on the overall number of guests, is charged for each traveler in addition to the published tour price. Every Private Tour includes all of the visits and entrances as outlined in the original published itinerary. And going private gives you the advantage of greater flexibility in pace and experience. To find out more, choose your tour from the existing Globus Europe portfolio, then reach out to Globus saying you’re interested in Private Tours and letting them know the number in your group (from 1 to 24 people). 

Sustainability Efforts

Globus has merged all of its sustainability initiatives into the Lighthouse Project , which focuses on economic, social, and environmental support projects.

Globus has an extensive health and safety policy that currently includes enhanced cleaning of vehicles, ships, and hotels; and health screenings for guides and drivers.

Highly Recommend (Japan)

I must commend Globus for providing us with such a convenient tour & beautiful hotels in great areas. Everything ran smoothly from the Airport transfers, to the trains between cities to the actual tours themselves. I thoroughly enjoyed this trip and would recommend it to all my friends. I must personally thank the local tour guides they provided to us Mrs. Jolly, Miss Shimokihara and Ms. Takayabu for being so enlightening and kind and making us feel welcomed. They were great!. Thank You again!

The tour was great

The tour was great. Our tour guide, Miguel, was delightful. So was our bus driver, Joao. The only drawback was that some of the hotels were a little shabby. Globus probably needs to find some alternatives.

A once in a lifetime experience (European Tapestry with London) 2024

My mom and I just went on our first trip with Globus, and it was an amazing experience. Everything was so organized and well planned that we got to just sit back and relax and enjoy our vacation. We did the European Tapestry tour with London which was about 16 days long. Even though it was many days, not once did the level of service reflect that, every day we were greeted with smiles and given the same amount of care and energy that made this trip so enjoyable. Yes, there were some long days on the bus, but our tour guide, Kees, did a wonderful job of keeping us all laughing, and entertained while learning about history and different cultures, and our driver Simon kept us all safe on the road and was so helpful with all of our luggage and extremely kind. The hotels were to our surprise really nice and comfortable, they were above our expectations in cleanliness, accommodations and level of service. The excursions were really the heart of this trip, I would recommend the Swiss Dinner and folklore party, the Tuscan countryside dinner, Monte Carlo and Moulin Rouge. The planning of this trip was so well thought out, we feel we got a little bit of everything, whether that be fun or learning or just relaxing and seeing beautiful sights. This trip was a memorable one and was our first but definitely not our last. Thank you to Globus for such a wonderful and unique experience.

Sicily 2024 - How to ruin a trip?...choose Globus.

Globus Sicilian Review - April 2024 Where do I start…. Tour guide – EXCELLENT! Bus Driver – EXCELLENT! Itinerary- Acceptable Hotel Meals- Sub Par Hotel Breakfast- Sub Par Restaurant meals- Good Hotels- Average at best Hotel Locations - Varied Hotels: Mercure Palermo Centro (Nice location, rude staff, no control of climate) Mahara Hotel & Wellness (No climate control, hotel dinner was listed as veal, but was a slice of roast beef) Della Valle (Poor, unwalkable location, no climate control, hotel dinner was pork cutlet) Poggio Del Sole Resort (5 miles from a town, no climate control, hotel dinner was 2 chicken legs) Mercure Siracusa (Nice hotel and location, a/c was on, best hotel to this point) Hellenia Yachting Hotel. (Nicer hotel on the water, great location, no climate control, and a feral cat problem) Our experience at the Hellenia was shocking. We were told that the A/C was not available yet, and were advised to open the window and slider, which had no screens. The problem…there are feral cats living on the building. The cats entered the room at will. We were forced to crack the slider and window and secure with a chair or water bottle wedged in the opening. Unfortunately, the cats perched themselves on the window sill and balcony, pushing on the glass to try to get entry. We had to close the curtains, which blocked the little airflow through the cracked door. I brought my concern up to the hotel staff at the front desk, when I requested a fan. All three associates looked at me, emotionless, when I mentioned the cat problem. And the “bonus” was early morning roof construction on our final day. An additional observation….although the climate control was off in the rooms, the lobby and common spaces were air conditioned. Overall, our trip was satisfying. The itinerary was good, the country is beautiful, the sights were amazing. Our tour director and bus driver were fantastic. Unfortunately, Globus put little effort into the selection of hotels and meals. Breakfasts were timed early and rushed. Hotel staff could not keep up with multiple tour groups flocking in at the same time. Same breakfast every morning consisting of watery eggs and undercooked bacon. Hotel dinners were also rushed, basic, with no choice of selection. No local dishes, salad, or vegetables on the menu. A meat, a pasta/rice and a common dessert. And be advised, you get either a glass of wine, a beer, or a soft drink included. My observation, Globus may have a reputation to keep, but the hotels have a captive audience. Each hotel was nothing more than a “stop” for an endless number of tours, therefore, they are not catering to return or future guests. Guests are treated like cattle for 18 or 36 hours. Unload the bus, give a room, feed a breakfast/dinner, and get them out. Unfortunately, Globus bears the responsibility for a review like mine. If you are happy with "average", with a bit of "disappointment", then choose Globus.

Ireland but Buyer Beware...

I traveled on the Globus/Cosmos Ireland Tour in Oct. 2023. The tour is priced lower than many others but, Buyer Beware -- you get what you pay for. The Positive: The tour covers the perimeter of Ireland. You experience lots of cute sheep in green meadows, dramatic ocean cliffs and very old castles. The tour guide is knowledgeable and the bus driver is safe and polite. The Negatives: Included Meals -- All breakfasts and three dinners were included in the tour price. One dinner was very good. The rest of the meals were borderline inedible. (Picture ice cold pancakes that have to be sent through the conveyor belt of the toaster machine and diluted oatmeal floating in lukewarm water. (Bring your own granola bars for survival.) Infection Control Precautions -- Several people on this large tour were ill with hacking coughs and sneezing. The air on the tour bus is recirculated. No one -- and I mean no one -- covered their nose or mouth when they sneezed and coughed. There were some face masks available on a tray at the center of the bus that went untouched all week. It was obvious that we were traveling on the pandemic bus but the tour guide made no attempt to point out the face masks nor did he suggest that travelers cover their mouth and nose when they cough and sneeze. I wore my own filter mask all week and endured plenty of dirty looks from the other travelers. I also got sick. (Bring filter masks and lots of hand sanitizer with you.) Hard Sell of Optional Excursions -- Optional excursions during free time are pushed as mandatory. I purchased admission to the Titanic Museum in Belfast (Excellent!) and elected not to attend evening excursions to pubs and similar entertainment venues where significant drinking occurs. On the morning of each of these optional excursions, the tour guide announced to the entire group that 'almost everyone has signed up for the evening excursion' and then he looked at me. On the morning after each optional excursion, the tour guide announced that 'almost everyone had a good time last night' and then he looked at me. The tour guide even had the audacity to send another traveler (a total stranger) to interrogate me on why I would not sign up for the "optional" tours. This was a complete violation of my privacy. The tour guide created a hostile travel environment for me by profiling me as the unfriendly one who won't join optional events. I came to Ireland to see sheep -- not to be a sheep. I will not be bullied into following group think mentality and I am not responsible for increasing the tour guide's commissions on these "optional" excursions. Solo Traveler -- Perhaps, because of the highly structured nature of the bus tour, some of the travelers are uncomfortable with a level of independence that they do not possess. I was interrogated by several travelers as to why I was traveling alone. (One woman at dinner demanded to know my life story!) I heard myself apologizing more than once for my presence on the tour. Summary -- You will definitely experience Ireland on this tour but for a few dollars more, you can have other options that may result in a more pleasant experience.

ALL SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THE COMPANY DOESNT WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU

ALL SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THE COMPANY HAS A POLICY OF RETURNING ALL MAIL SENT TO THE COMPANY WITHOUT OPENING IT. WE HAD A SITUATION IN TRYING TO PAY FOR OUR TRIP AND AFTER A LOT OF EFFORT WE FINALLY WERE ABLE TO PAY. THE ISSUE WAS THAT THE COMPANY CANT PROCESS CREDIT CARD PAYMENTS OF GREATER THAN $20K- HOWEVER THE CLERK DIDNT KNOW THE RULE SO MUCH TIME WASTED ON OUR PART. THUS I WROTE A POSITIVE NOTE TO SCOTT NESBIT THE CEO ONLY TO HAVE IT RETURNED AND THUS i FOLLOWED UP AND AFTER 3 CHAT EMAILS I LEARNED THAT IT IS COMPANY POLICY NOT TO EVEN OPEN LETTERS- JUST SEND THEM BACK UNOPENED!! IF ONLY THEY WOULD PUT A STATEMENT ON THEIR WEBSITE TO THE EFFECT " PLEASE NOTE WE DONT WANT TO HEAR FROM ANY CUSTOMERS WITH REGARD TO COMPLAINTS OR SUGGESTIONS = SO DONT WASTE YOUR TIME CONTACTING US "

Our tour director

Our tour director, Christine was absolutely fabulous. She was extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic, kind, friendly, and went above and beyond to accommodate everyone. Christine really tried to get to know everyone on the tour, their likes and needs. She frequently shared her own personal experiences. It is obvious that she really enjoys her job and also enjoys working with people. The tour took us to fabulous places and the hotels were located in central areas, allowing us to walk to many points of interest.

Vietnam Globus Tour

First and foremost, our tour guide Dinh was outstanding. He knows his stuff, excellent customer service and he made our tour great! He even met us at the airport in Hanoi at 1:00 a.m. to get us to our hotel when we first arrived!! Second, our accommodations (including food and beverage services) were all excellent. Third, our daily excursions/activities were all very good and as promised, and more, in the information we received ahead of time. Fourth, the communications by Globus with us was excellent. Confirmations, Travel Documents, Travel Packet and the app were all really good and very useful for us.

Fantastic Journey to Cuba!

It was a very well-planned tour with impeccable precision, experiences, and details. Globus and Cuban guides/directors were superb. Loved the experiences. I did contact Globus after we returned with one problem. At our MKE airport they mandated we give them our immigration papers...said we couldn't fly without the QR code...lady at counter finally gave us the website...Globus needs to prepare people for that.

It was a great trip

It was a great trip. The airport transfers were great. We are very glad we arrived a day ahead of time, which allowed us to adjust to the time difference. We also greatly enjoyed our 2 day extension in Prague. Our tour guide was very nice, and provided historical information during our bus trips. Our bus driver was a gem,and really knew how to navigate the city traffic. We loved that our tour allowed for enough free time to explore on our own. We took advantage of optional tours in each city visited, and enjoyed those. The local guides provided a great orientation to the cities, and provided great historical insights.

Highlights of the South Pacific: New Zealand and Australia

We selected this tour based on the itinerary- it hit all the key spots we were interested in seeing . The online Globus portal allowed us to submit all required docs for international travel and gave details on the hotels and event on our tour. Our tour director Leonie was FABULOUS! She was very knowledgeable, funny, and kept us on schedule. She created a WhatsApp group so we could easily communicate with everyone in the group and share photos. Highly recommend Globus tours!

Our travel guide Ronan was awesome

Our travel guide Ronan was awesome! Unfortunately we got stuck in New Zealand because of a visa problem and the global emergency line never would get back with us to help. We had to figure out and book our own flights to get caught up with our tour. The tour was five stars long as you didn’t have any problems if you are on your tour and you have an emergency problem, you are definitely on your own never heard back from them.

Very pleased with my recent Globus tour! The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable & very friendly. The tour was well organized and we had the opportunity to see lots of great sights. The hotel accommodations were great. Would definitely recommend Globus to other travellers.

Globus provided the most amazing service

Globus were absolutely brilliant! Even when things didn’t go to plan (went from two of us travelling to just one) they were really helpful at every step of the way. Whilst on holiday I was given contact details for a local travel company who could help with anything I needed, which was vital in helping me feel safe travelling alone. Their app is amazing, with a day by day guide, as long as other really useful features like temperature, currency exchange, helpful phrases etc. I highly recommend this company and I plan to use them again in the future!

Thank you so much for taking the time to post this review, we are delighted that your holiday exceeded expectations. Your very kind comments will be shared with all involved.

This was my second Globus tour

This was my second Globus tour. Michael the tour guide was very knowledgeable, personable and helpful as well as Barry the coach driver, they were both great! Definitely enjoyed this trip. The price was excellent I checked out several tour companies and Globus had the best deals. Booked another trip in November to Ireland. I would definitely recommend Globus Tours.

We had the most wonderful tour…

We had the most wonderful tour guide/tour director, Robert Marks. He knew so many things and treated us with great respect. We would recommend Globus just based on Robert. In addition we had great accommodations and a small (6 people) group of congenial people.

Marvelous Egypt

In February, my husband and I visited Egypt 🇪🇬 for two weeks, staying at five-star hotels. I cried due to seeing great temples of history such as Karnak, Luxor, pyramids of Giza, catacombs at Alexandria, sarcophagus of famous pharaohs, Egyptian museum (relics, art, chariots, masks, tombs, etc. from 3,000 years ago), Aswan, additional pyramids, Lake Nasser, a Nubian village, the Valley of the Dead, Tutankhamen’s mummy and treasures, hieroglyphs, place where Moses was supposedly plucked out of the Nile river, and so much more. This trip exceeded my wildest expectations. It’s one of the best ever and I have recommended it to my friends. The Egyptian people are friendly, helpful and we felt safe. Our tour director was so knowledgeable and helpful too. Wish I could go again.

Beautiful Spain

I really enjoyed all the beautiful places we went and the amazing hotels. Our guide, Jose, was spectacular, and always shared with the group, historical facts about the places we were visiting. The food was very delicious, though I was hoping for some Paella and succulent pig.

The Spanish escape was excellent

The Spanish escape was excellent. Loved all the places we visited and our tour director, Benjamin, made it so much fun while also being informative. We lucked up with excellent weather which made all the sightseeing easier. Will definitely use Globus again.

ANNA-LENA SODERLUND TORNELL

Escorting tours for more than 20 years

" I love to bring visitors to areas where I have lived and worked, i.e. Scandinavia, Russia and Central Europe, to give a piece of my culture to the guests, to make the clients feel at home by introducing them to all aspects of life in the area. To open our eyes and understand customs, habits and history, "what makes me tick the way I tick, and you tick differently" is my focus. How to make the best Swedish meatballs, how to sing children's songs or sharing a proverb we use a lot. When we come back home after a tour, we have a different set of 'glasses'. The knowledge of the world has changed us a bit and we are all part of it, plus we had a really great time together! "
