    Tour Director Scott Widenhouse have done great job. Though he was so busy, he never left us alone during our needs when Lufthansa Airline flight from Milan Airport to Frankfort, Germany was cancelled. Eventually our flight to Houston was cancelled too. Our agent PATRICK coordinated with Globus and Lufthansa to get return flight schedules to Houston, Texas. All those people are great.

    Globus always exceeds my expectations, from the places we see, the excursions, tour director, driver & hotel choices. Tour bus is kept clean.

    The trip and excursions were excellent. The first 2 hotels were a bit sub par as in past tours are hotels had better accommodations. Ex hotel towels in Zurich were thread bear, room very hot , location next to nowhere. The second hotel dining area was dirty.. stained chairs only one coffee machine for over 60 people. I understand you want to keep the cost down but many people on your were turned off by the accommodations.
