I am afraid on driving across long bridges. Do we drive across a long bridge to get to Newport? Also, do we see lighthouses during the drive along the coast? And do we stop along the K-highway to see the waterfalls?

Driving routes may vary depending on what routes are open at the time and we cannot guarantee that we will choose routes with or without a long bridge. Please be aware that in some cases, the only transit route between cities may be a bridge. There is not a mention of seeing lighthouses or a stop along the K-highway to see the waterfalls.

Are the buses equipped for handicap? Can I get info about the bus, such as the seats and bathrooms, etc?

Coaches in North America & Europe are generally equipped with a hydraulic system that allows the coach to 'lean' (or kneel), so that the distance between ground and first step is reduced when loading/unloading. This is not guaranteed, and may not be available on all coaches. In Exotic locations this style of coach is not common. Rest assured when kneeling system is not available, the driver or Tour Director will be at the ready to assist with a helping hand or step stool. Restrooms are available on our touring coaches. The term "emergency washroom" is used because this facility is not meant to be used regularly in lieu of the restrooms at frequent comfort stops approximately every 2 to 2½ hours.

Can I get a list of hotels for this trip?

We can provide a list of hotels we intend to use once we have you booked and deposited on the tour. Please know, our hotel list will not be confirmed until 30 days prior to departure. Once confirmed, if there are any changes to the list, the updated list will be sent out via email.

Do you have any trips like this that leave out of Columbus or Dayton Ohio?

Unfortunately, we do not have any tours that depart out of Dayton or Columbus, Ohio.

how much for single supplement o New England Fall foliage trip? Is there transportation from Logan airport to start of tour hotel?

The Single Supplement cost will be an additional $1395. We do not offer arrival and departure transfers on this tour.

Can you also provide information for Boston hotels before this Globus Tour begins? Can we stay at the same Boston hotel as the Globus Tour 1-2 days prior? Who would we contact for an extended stay either before or after this tour?

We currently have to availability to offer up to 3 pre-tour hotel nights and 3 post-tour hotel nights. Any more would have to be requested. The cost would be $273.00 USD per person per night. By default, we always try to book the same hotel that we use for the core itinerary, though it cannot always be guaranteed. The pre night hotel is the Sheraton Boston Hotel, and the post night hotel is the Newport Harbor Hotel & Marina.

Please provide information for the hotel accommodations.

Hotel arrangements are typically finalized closer to the departure date. Rest assured, once your reservation is confirmed, you will receive comprehensive documentation containing all necessary details, including hotel accommodations.

Approximations of Bus time? walking time? free time?

We don't typically provide specific timeframes until you are on tour. Once you embark on the tour, you will receive a comprehensive itinerary upon meeting with your Tour Director. This detailed itinerary will provide you with valuable information about the various activities and destinations planned for each day of your tour.

  For return flights from Logan airport, flight departure time is recommended after 3:30. Does this allow for 2 hours airport arrival and go through security? Then that means we get dropped off at the airport around 1-1:30 pm?
- GlobusOperator•Written June 2024
  Yes, the 3:30pm recommendation takes the pre-boarding process into account. The motorcoach actually arrives at the airport around 1:30pm.
