    Having all the major details taken care of is such a blessing. We can then concentrate on our tour plans only. We have used Monograms/Globus before and will continue.

    The local hosts are fabulous. Dan in London and a Molly in Paris gave excellent advice. I've enjoyed my experiences with Globus. This was my first time with the Independence tour and I was wonderful.

    Having someone coordinate our flights, hotel, transport, and other excursions made this trip so much less stressful than if we were to plan it ourselves! We were able to just be excited about getting to go to Europe and getting an email from our travel agent was always a delight because it usually meant we were one step closer to going. I could not recommend booking with Globus enough--every guide was so nice and helpful!
