    Patrick and Toris were exceptional leaders and very very helpful and accommodating- would have loved to have seen Layfayette thought we'd have at least seen the major things but just the inside of the hotel and the bluff because I chose to go for a walk there, if everyone had had a chance to introduce themselves that'd would have been great too so I could have known them from the start. But overall excellent service and team, thank you to Patrick and Toris.

  • J

    Jennifer

    Asked on July 12th, 2024

    What is the activity level for this bus trip. I use a walker for distance walking but I can get on and off busses and manage a few stairs

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • GlobusOperatorWritten July 2024

      Its hard to give an exact level on how much walking with be done. Each day will be filled with included activities or optional excursions. I would say this tour could be pretty manageable with a walker. Once a reservation is created we can put in a request for any specific days that you may be concerned about the exertion levels. Also, we do recommend having someone with you for assistance as no Globus representative can help assist travelers.

    • GlobusOperatorWritten July 2024

      The length of time you will be on the motor coach will vary. You will be provided a more detailed itinerary with the miles you will travel each day. There will be a good bit of walking but our Tour Director is usually really good with keeping the group at a safe pace.

    Carla

    Asked on January 11th, 2022

    Do you have a stateroom or suite that accommodates 3 adults?

    Accommodation
    • GlobusOperatorWritten January 2022

      Typically, triple rooms are the same size as twin bedded rooms and have beds to accommodate three people. However, we cannot guarantee that there will be three separate beds. If there are only two beds, a rollaway bed may be requested but also cannot be guaranteed. In North America it is uncommon for a room to have three beds; cots/rollaway beds are not always available due to regional fire regulations. If clients do not wish to share a bed, they should book a Twin and a Single accommodation.

      TravelerWritten January 2022
