- AErica· July 11th, 2023The independence by Globus package was prefect for my family. The free time paired well will guided tours. The guides were prompt, personable, and knowledgeable. They even took the time to ask about what our 14 year old might want to see. I do recommend adding the app Ekispert to the communication. It saved us getting lost on the train/subway system. Thank you for a memory that will be with us a lifetime.Show moreTrip date: July 2023Review collected by Globus
- AMeg· June 26th, 2023Excellent arrangements (hotel, air, land travel.) Would have liked communication about guides, meeting locations, transportation closer to 72 hours in advance rather than the typical 12-24 hours notice that we typically received.Show moreTrip date: June 2023Review collected by Globus

- AMichael· April 7th, 2023The tour guides were the best part. Excellent local guides in each city. No hiccups only one small issue as instructions in Kyoto said to meet in the lobby and the driver was downstairs outside the lobby.. We are looking forward to booking our next trip through GlobusShow moreTrip date: March 2023Review collected by Globus
