What travelers are saying

"A company's character is not determined by how it handles day to day operations, but how it handles a crisis. This company fails miserably when Acts of God happen! We are on what was supposed to be a Danube River Cruise from Prague to Budapest...we never sailed at all, even though Viking sailed for the last 3 days. Avalon chose to bus us everywhere. They didn't communicate well at all. Information was withheld and our cruise director, Helmut, would turn and walk away from guests if he didn't want to answer questions. This was my 3rd Globus/Avalon trip but it will be the last. They excel in bus trips but not river trips. They don't know how to handle weather issues."

What travelers are saying

"Globus states that their tours feature "great hotels" and "amazing food". I can tell you first hand that this is literally false advertising and totally not true. I just returned from my trip yesterday and have taken pictures of the filthy carpet and boarded up windows of my various hotel rooms some facing the trash dumpsters and porta potties and others in the basement level reeking of mold and mildew with no air conditioning or water pressure. Our tour guide, Charlie was a history buff who treated everyone as if they were a student in his classroom and were only allowed to speak when spoken to and it was made clear from the start that all questions were best kept to themselves as he and he alone would decide when you were to be informed of that days schedule. Half the time we rode in coach unaware of the length of time until our next stop and even where and when our next stop for lunch would be. Early on in my trip, I contacted my travel agent to please help and she immediately reached out to Globus and nothing changed... the sub par hotels and tour guides dismissive attitude continued for 24 days. I am currently contemplating my next step of action to receive reimbursement for this false advertising as well trying to help others by sparing them of having this same experience."

Saw a lot of wonderful places, but it is not a trip for someone that is sedentary.

This tour was definitely a whirl. We got a taste of many different countries and wonderful highlights of each. We had some difficulties with our airline and missed...

Netherlands Tour Selection Trips

  • For a small country, there’s a lot to pack in on your trip to The Netherlands! Be sure to allow enough time to explore areas outside of Amsterdam. You’ll find the rolling hills of Limburg a world away from the bustle of the country’s capital.
  • Cycling is the perfect way to explore this corner of Europe. The Netherlands is famously flat and cycle ways cover the whole country. It’s also very easy to put your bike on a train if you feel you need a break! 
  • Slow down to appreciate the friendliness and hospitality of the Dutch. While Amsterdam is not famous for it, Dutch culture can be seen at its best away from the big towns.
  • With miles and miles of navigable waterways, river cruises can be a wonderful way to start discovering this country.
  • Take time to relax with a good Dutch beer - there are many more options than Heineken, you can even visit Amsterdam’s own windmill and brewery for a local taste.
