    My family and I were disappointed that the tour of Los Angeles did not include Universal Studios. It could have taken the place of the Getty Museum or the Farmers Market stops. We would have also enjoyed additional time In San Francisco. Overall, we had an excellent time. The hotes were top notch. Our tour guide Darren H. and our bus driver Jose were outstanding.

    Darren, was very caring and offered to bring us dinner because I did not feel well and could not go to dinner. He also checked on us the next morning. I appreciate his kindness and compassion. We enjoyed our adventure! Nancy

    Road conditions shortened our time in Big Sur, but I would love to see more hours allocated to Yosemite and Big Sur in the future.

    The overall tour was very good. The Farmer's Market experience was alright, but I think that working in a studio tour instead might have been more interesting.

    Darren has been a fabulous Tour Director and Oze has been a fabulous driver. They have both been kind and informative at all times. They have made our tour first class. Both of them are an asset to Globus and they should be given bonuses.
