My husband, myself and my 2 sisters booked a tour through Globus 'The Taperstry tour'. Our tour guide Gert was a very knowledgeable, patient and excellent tour guide. Gert made our tour come alive with his history and knowledge of all the countries and cities we visited,any issues we had he was there to assist us. Gert had character was funny and very enjoyable to listen to. It would be awesome if all the guides had the expertise of Gert. He is one not to let go. Thank you Gert for making our journey through Europe a very enjoyable one. Keep up the good work and hope to meet again on another tour in the future

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! 🤩
