- ARita Sue· September 6th, 2023The tour guide was very professional, knowledgeable and personable. Since we had a small group, he was able to find some additional venues for us to see and that was most appreciated. The bus driver kept the bus clean and sanitized and I always felt safe. He was also very friendly and knowledgeable about the areas we visited. I look forward to future tours with Globus.Show moreTrip date: August 2023Review collected by Globus

- AMichael· September 28th, 2022I would of liked to of spent a night in Lake Tahoe, instead of two nights in Sacramento. It seems that Sacramento could of been seen in one day. Secondly, if that was not possible, then a night near Muir Woods would of been nice.Show moreTrip date: September 2022Review collected by Globus
