    Spectacular Switzerland lived up to and exceeded its name. We saw so much but the balance between guided tours and free time to explore was perfect. Our guide Sheryl was absolutely incredible and added so much to this trip. Five stars is an understatement! 🤩

    This was our first organized tour and our first tour with Globus. From the initial contact with Globus all the way through the tour, we had nothing but great experiences! We will definitely use Globus again and have already recommended you to two friends.

    Overall I thought the Switzerland tour exceeded our expectations. The itinerary visited almost all of the places we wanted to see, the hotels were clean and well-located, and each day's activities were just right with optional excursions if we wanted more. Even before the tour, the communication from Globus kept us informed and the website made it easy to enter our travel information and download documents. In addition the GlobusGo app was a very useful source for information before and during the trip. This was our first experience with Globus and we would for sure travel with Globus again.
