The Indian Pacific - Perth To Sydney Harry and Marg, ACT, Australia, Nov 2024
Fellow travelers were an interesting mix of Aussies and overseas. Food was satisfactory. Some commentary on the scenery would have made it more interesting. The staff were wonderful. Sleepless nights and required early mornings left us feeling very exhausted. We expected a smoother ride. Overall not value for money. Global Journeys as always were h ...read moreelpful.
The Ghan - Adelaide To Darwin Mark, Australia, Oct 2024
It was a wonderful trip, particularly when compared to the old narrow gauge Ghan that I traveled on some 50 years ago. A big, big change. I did fill in the survey supplied on the train and have already complimented our carriage hostess and the staff in general. Negatives was the breakfast at Marla which kept all the passengers in a restricted area ...read more (considering it was the Outback). I was denied walking 50 meters to get a side on shot of the locomotives (as I did with the old locomotives 50 years ago) and some German tourists were not happy in not being allowed to walk to the surrounding areas as it was regarded as "too dangerous". A little bit of overkill. That aside, a good trip with wonderful staff.
Great short break Lyn, NSW, Australia, Sep 2024
Chose this tour specifically for Floriade but was so much more. Our driver/director was marvelous. Really enjoyed this short break to Canberra and surrounds. Great accomodation in great location. Have done a few trips with AAT Kings now and would recommend. Georgie from Global Journeys was helpful as ever.
Cape York - The Tip - Thursday Island Des & Jeanette Patfield , NSW, Australia, Sep 2024
Another exceptional holiday with APT. Our tour guide Sonia & driver Thommo were excellent with great attention to detail and communication. Accommodation was generally excellent along with food no matter where we were. All fellow companions interacted well with each other especially with help and support thru some unforgiving terrain. "A Very Highly ...read more Recommend Trip" of a lifetime.
