Globus Tours Travel Styles
As varied as travelers are, so too are the travel style choices offered by Globus. Globus tours understand that travel is an extremely personal experience and, as such, we have put together unique travel styles to appeal to a variety of travelers.

Regional Discoveries
Their most popular style, Regional Discoveries, are well-planned, in-depth escorted vacations that provide one-of-a-kind opportunities to experience the character, personality, and flavor of a specific region or country. Select a destination to find the Regional Discovery that's right for you.

River Cruises
Through Avalon Waterways, Globus offer over 100 different cruise options that meander down the Rhine, the Danube, the Main, the Rhone and the serene Moselle rivers of Europe. You can also cruise down the Nile, China's Yangtze River and visit the Galapagos Islands. River cruising allows you to sail to the heart of the world's most enchanting destinations. Unpack once and then enjoy up-close views of picturesque landscapes and the most modern amenities in the river cruise industry. On shore, Local Guides ensure you'll return to the ship having experienced an authentic slice of local life.

Monograms Independent Vacations
Monograms vacations provides you the chance to discover Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia & New Zealand, and North & South America independently, at your own pace and in your own style.
