Review on recent trip

I have been traveling since 1996 and have done an independent travel as well as an escorted tours. I have used Globus before but this is my first time with Cosmos. It’s truly an amazing experience and have really enjoyed it. Max our driver and Ali - our tour director has been wonderful.
Ali was very knowledgeable. Loved the schedules that was given to us.
I told Ali that I was very impressed and I will be using Cosmos in our future travels.
I thank Cosmos for the wonderful experience which had given me a lasting memories!

Best way to see the Passion Play

We enjoyed the tour, and our tour director Catherina Thiel. While we had been to each location (except optional excursion to Bratislava) in the past the tour met our expectations. Having more than one night in Salzburg & Vienna is a definite plus. There were some minor inconveniences at times, but overall the tour was good.

Leading up to the vacation if I had any…

Leading up to the vacation if I had any questions and concerns I was dealt with by your call centre instead of my original booking agent. Too may people dealing with my file and had to start at the beginning each time. Very frustrating. Also not enough time between flights in Frankfurt. Because of these two reason I will not likely deal with Globus again.

I would definitely recommend Globus

I would definitely recommend Globus. I just returned from an international 10 day tour and everything was wonderful. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and communicated clearly. I was confident the driver would get me places safely. The hotel accommodations, local attractions and sightseeing were well planned out and the trip went very smoothly. If anything did change or there was a problem, our guide took care of issues and the tour went on.

We had a marvelous time

We had a marvelous time. We had awesome experiences that we will never be able to replicate. The Matterhorn was phenomenal and we loved seeing places where the Sound of Music was filmed. Our tour guide and driver did an amazing job of making certain that we had the trip of a lifetime.

Excellent guides,Evie & George

Excellent guides,Evie & George. Only issue was CDG Paris . Almost did not make flight as only TWO people were checking passports for a few hundred passengers. This has an easy solution. It is always known how may people need to be processed. have staff accordingly.
Glad we are back to traveling. I feel very sorry for the staffs that live off tourism and the pandemic left them without a job. Hope this doesn't happen again

A Fantastic Trip

I had waited through a pandemic to take this trip. It was worth the wait. The Passion Play at Oberammergau was definitely the highlight. Our guide did a great job explaining things and giving a perspective on historical events. We were Al’s blessed with a most congenial group of 20. I really enjoyed the smaller group.

Don't miss the Passion Play

I reserved this tour in 2018. My objective was to see the Passion Play at Oberammergau, as I had been to most of the other stops on the tour. Regardless of my "having been there done that" I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The brisk pace was just right. The locations visited were colorful, interesting amd beautiful. The Tour Director, Pieter Reynolds, was an outstanding story-teller and made the history come alive. It wouldn't have been the same without Pieter's sense of humor, knowledge, and human touch. I realized my dream of experiencing the Oberammergau Passion Play.

The German Highlights/Oberammergau…

The German Highlights/Oberammergau overall was an amazing trip. We learned so much, saw places such as Potsdam where history took place and experienced the beautiful country and the lovely people. And the highlight of the trip was the Passion Play. It was so much more than was expected. Quite a moving experience that brought tears to my eyes even without being able to understand much of the German language. It didn't matter one bit.

Itinerary is great

Itinerary is great. Adequate time given at attractions. Taken to attractions early to avoid crowds which was appreciated. Passion play outstanding. Matterhorn & PIlatus both excellent. If do extra excursions, pace of trip is good. Hotel locations were close to good restaurants. Breakfast always good, other provided meals barely adequate.

An Exceptional Experience

This experience exceeded our expectations. Hotel quality and included meals were excellent. The excursions included were also excellent. Some of the walking tours could have been a little more extensive, but given the pace of the trip, the amount of time devoted to these walks was understandable.
Our optional excursions were definitely worth the money we spent. The main reason for selecting this particular trip, The Passion Play, was a marvelous experience. Our seats were front and center in the theatre. This experience was enhanced even further by spending the nights before and after the play at a quality hotel in the village.
