My tour of Canada was amazing. My tour guide provided great information, and was there to help me with anything I needed. The drive was always beautiful and worry free. I would totally love to travel with Cosmos again.

My trip with Cosmos April 2019 was excellent . The tour included Spain Portugal, Morocco with beautiful views and very knowledgeable lady Monica. The day trip to Rock of Gibraltar was the topping of this wonderful “ Iberian Discovery “ trip. A great company! Thank you with no disappointments with excellent points of interest and delicious meals. Hope to travel with Cosmos or Globus when our travelling ban is over.

We have recently returned from a tour of Vietnam and Cambodia, which started on 7th March. The trip was all that I expected of a Globus tour (good hotels with excellent locations) however coronavirus problems really started after we arrived in Hanoi. Our guide was great and did all he could to make our holiday perfect, but Vietrnam was begining to close down due to the virus, however we got to do everything we were meant to, while we were there, albeit with far fewer other tourists around. Unfortunately, when we arrived in Ho Chi Min city the rest of the trip had to be cancelled. Cosmos rebooked us on earlier flights home, as we had booked our flights through them, and have since refunded us for the part of our tour we were unable to make. I feel that despite circumstances beyond our/their control, Cosmos have been excellent in handling what was a very difficult and unusal situation and I wouldn't hestate to recommend them to anyone wanting to take a tour in the future.

Overall awesome trip! Once in a lifetime. dream come true. Both Cosmos guides, one in Kenya and one in Tanzania, were incredible. My wife and I are both over 60 and the doctor's office would not give us the Yellow Fever shot based on CDC guidelines. They did issue us a waiver letter though. Worked perfect at the border crossing. Lodges were definitely "glamping". Great and comfortable accommodations and the food at each was fantastic. All meals were buffet and the morning buffets at all sites included a cook to order omelet chef. The only critique I have is the final day's flight from Serengeti to Arusha. We were at the grass airstrip at 7:30 AM to meet a small plane making several stops. The plane didn't show up until 11:15. Imagine sitting in an airplane on a tarmac for almost 4 hours. The airstrip has no overhead cover and it started getting very hot. Thank god we were there in Feb and not July. It seems that Cosmos could have an agent at the Arusha airport who could call the trip guide when the plane takes off. The flight is just over an hour and our lodge was 30 minutes from the airstrip. It would have been way more comfortable waiting at the lodge and departing when the phone call came in.

What a great way to celebrate Christmas and New Year's in Italy! Our very first experience with escorted group tours and a special one it was. Traveling with my Mom, whose relatives are from Italy, was at the top of my bucket list. The itinerary was action-packed and gave all the highlights of so many special places. I still can't believe all of the places that we got to see in 14 days. Both our tour director, Stefano and our driver, Claudio helped make our journey so enjoyable. They were awesome! We made new friends with others from across the globe and hope in the future to travel again with them!

Fabulous trip with wonderful knowledgeable guides! Learned so much about South America that of course you cannot learn through any other way. My second “trip of a lifetime” with Cosmos and plan more in the future. Cosmos is so organized, makes traveling a great experience and carefree. Thanks for the memories!
