Chapter 1: TOURING. BEYOND.
For those who are looking for every way in the world to see the world, Globus offers a ticket to AWESOME. From the classic tours that made us famous to new, passion-packed “choice” vacations; independent and private tours to off-season and off-the-beaten-path journeys, Globus has a travel style and itinerary to match every wayfarer, every wanderer and every budget.
Whether travelers are looking for a quick escape, a long jaunt or a journey by rail or cruise, we’re the “go to” for DO on every type of vacation imaginable. And then some.
For those who want to go beyond the guidebooks, beyond expectation and beyond the ordinary tour, choose extraordinary journeys across the globe with Globus.
Beyond the Ordinary.
The Coliseum. The Eiffel Tower. The Pyramids. Every Globus tour includes the legendary landmarks, the major attractions and the must-sees in history. Going beyond the iconic exteriors, Globus also leads travelers to the front of the line, straight through the door and inside the walls of Europe’s most awe-inspiring places. With priority access, we ensure travelers behold the sights they’ve long dreamed of – without getting held up for hours.
But that’s not all. While it might be the iconic sights of the world that first entice travelers to pack bags for adventure, it’s often something quite different that beckons them to return – the towns with no traffic, the coasts with no crowds, the nooks with no noise. Globus designs the perfect balance of the hero sights travelers shouldn’t miss and the hidden gems they otherwise would, offering a deeper glimpse into the world’s most intriguing destinations.
When travelers join Globus to veer off the beaten path, break away from the packs and break bread with the locals, they’re in for an unparalleled vacation beyond the guidebooks that they couldn’t create on their own.
Chapter 2: Globus – Beyond Hassles & Worries.
It’s a big world out there – with dizzying options for sightseeing, transportation, and accommodations. Travelers needn’t spend hours trying to figure it out when we’ve spent nearly a century perfecting the dream vacation. With one-stop, our guests can secure an exclusive experience with all the right inclusions:
Tour Directors & Local Guides
Beyond navigation and narration, these true insiders enlighten travelers along the journey.
Hand-Selected Hotels
Among the many inclusions on a Globus vacation are the perfect places to rest – not just any hotels, but perfectly located, superior accommodations that maximize travelers’ time, fun and overall experience.
Seamless Transportation
From start-to-finish, a Globus tour is a smooth ride. Whether aboard one of our deluxe touring motorcoaches or high-speed and mountain trains, river cruise ships or ferries, see the world from a variety of exhilarating vantage points.
Plus, it turns out that one of the most fun ways to see the world is also one of the most environmentally friendly ways to travel. Our deluxe motorcoaches get a whopping 206.6 passenger miles per gallon and on average, are seven times more energy and fuel-efficient than single-occupancy automobiles. In fact, one spacious and comfy motorcoach can replace as many as 55 cramped passenger cars on the roads, slashing fuel usage and pollution emissions.

Chapter 5: WHY TOUR WITH GLOBUS?
SIMPLY PUT, A TOUR IS A PERFECTLY PLANNED VACATION PACKAGE.
There’s nothing easy about planning a vacation on your own, especially when visiting the less-travelled corners of the world. That’s why Globus and Cosmos tours handle the research, logistics, and the reservations, so you can spend more time enjoying your destination.
THERE’S NO DRIVING, NO NAVIGATING, AND NO CRYING.
A tour eliminates all logistical hassles by arranging your transportation around town, between cities, and just for fun. Aboard our luxury motorcoaches, you’ll even have access to free Wi-Fi.
A TOUR DELIVERS BOTH DAYDREAMS AND DREAMY NIGHTS.
A tour includes pre-screened, brand-name hotels with the right address and the right amenities.
TOURS SKIP THE LINES.
A tour offers a pre-planned, pre-purchased itinerary with access to the must see-sights.
ON YOUR OWN, YOU SEE. ON A TOUR, YOU DO.
A tour gets you easily to the tucked away villages and awe-inspiring landscapes that simply take your breath away.
THERE IS A ROCK STAR ON YOUR TOUR.
Only escorted tours include a Tour Director—an expert who lives and breathes your destination and shares their knowledge with you.
TOURS SAVE YOUR TWO FAVORITE THINGS: MONEY AND TIME.
Tour operators have the buying power that individual travelers simply don’t have, saving you up to 30% compared to purchasing all the components on your own. And by eliminating lines—and including the must-see sights—you’ll actually have more free time to relax and explore on your own.
