    Tara

    Asked on December 11th, 2025

    Could you please let us know if this tour is suitable for a traveller who requires a walking stick? We want to ensure it meets their accessibility needs.

    • GlobusOperator•Written December 2025

      You should be prepared for easy, but sustained walking throughout the tour. This means there could be some days with lots on mostly flat surfaces. You are also more than welcome to bring a walking stick on tour.

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • GlobusOperator•Written July 2024

      Its hard to give an exact level on how much walking with be done. Each day will be filled with included activities or optional excursions. I would say this tour could be pretty manageable with a walker. Once a reservation is created we can put in a request for any specific days that you may be concerned about the exertion levels. Also, we do recommend having someone with you for assistance as no Globus representative can help assist travelers.

    • GlobusOperator•Written July 2024

      The length of time you will be on the motor coach will vary. You will be provided a more detailed itinerary with the miles you will travel each day. There will be a good bit of walking but our Tour Director is usually really good with keeping the group at a safe pace.

  • C

    Carla

    Asked on January 11th, 2022

    Do you have a stateroom or suite that accommodates 3 adults?

    Accommodation
    • GlobusOperator•Written January 2022

      Typically, triple rooms are the same size as twin bedded rooms and have beds to accommodate three people. However, we cannot guarantee that there will be three separate beds. If there are only two beds, a rollaway bed may be requested but also cannot be guaranteed. In North America it is uncommon for a room to have three beds; cots/rollaway beds are not always available due to regional fire regulations. If clients do not wish to share a bed, they should book a Twin and a Single accommodation.

    • C

      Carla

      Traveler•Written January 2022

      do fire regulations on t his cruise affect having an additional cot/bed in the room
