About Globus
More than 75 years
ago, Antonio Mantegazza bought a rowboat to transport commercial goods
across Lake Lugano in Switzerland. Who could know that rowboat would launch
the world's leading escorted travel company? Today Globus is a global,
family-owned company reaching every corner of the world. Globus is now
the first choice among individuals looking for vacations with both domestic
and international travel in a variety of styles to six continents and hundreds
of itineraries to choose from.
Antonio's frequent
trips across the scenic lake led him to consider opportunities in a different
market - tourism. His entrepreneurial instinct pushed him to gradually
acquire some motorcoaches to transport tourists around the Lake Lugano
area. In 1928, Antonio opened a company specializing in motorcoach touring
called Globus Viaggi. The company began with a fleet of 12 coaches which
operated local excursions for European tourists in Switzerland.
By 1950, Globus
Viaggi had grown to a fleet of 33 coaches and featured overnight excursions
to Rome, Venice, the Dolomites and the French Riviera. Gradually, these
became regularly scheduled tours and grew longer to cover more ground.
Later that decade, under the leadership of Werner Albek, Antonio's business
partner, Globus pioneered the concept of Grand European Touring by offering
first-class European tours to North Americans. By 1961, the company launched
its Cosmos arm, which featured affordable, value-priced European touring
for the cost-conscious British traveler.
The coach tours
were so successful that Cosmos soon introduced another form of travel for
the British market: air holiday packages to the sunny destinations of southern
Europe. By 1968, Cosmos air holidays became so popular the company formed
its own airline, Monarch Airlines. Monarch Airlines started out modestly
with two used Britannia aircraft and eventually blossomed into one of the
most successful European charter companies with a large fleet of modern
jets and its own engineering division.
Under the flagship
of Sergio Mantegazza, current president and son of Antonio, Globus began
expanding its markets beyond Great Britain and North America. Since 1974,
travel packages have been sold in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and most
recently in Southeast Asia. Starting in the 70s, the company also aggressively
expanded its offerings, introducing travelers to more countries than any
other tour operator with packages to Africa, South and North America, Europe,
the South Pacific and Asia.
Today, the
Globus family of brands is marketed and operated by a network of more than
32 independent tourism and aviation businesses, serviced by a group of
more than 5,000 professionals worldwide. Combined, Globus, Cosmos, and
Monograms carry over 500,000 passengers a year, making the organization
the leading operator of guided vacations worldwide. Globus attributes its
success to the ideals of founder Antonio Mantegazza. For three generations,
his vision, hard work, love for travel, and commitment have guided the
company. These values are the cornerstone on which Globus was built and
will continue to grow.

What is Escorted Travel?
One of the
biggest benefits of escorted travel is the ability to experience a destination
without worrying about the details such as transfers, hotels and much more.
You will have plenty of free time to explore on your own but you will also
benefit from the expert knowledge of our Tour Directors.
And Globus
enables you to choose the escorted experience that will suit you best.
Do you want a vacation with more planned time or a do you want to enjoy
a more independent experience with less "guided" time? There are hundreds
of itineraries for you to choose from.
There is also
value you receive with an escorted vacation that is difficult or nearly
impossible to get with your own planning. Because of Globus' buying power
and thanks to nearly 80 years of experience, you will get unmatched values
when it comes to your hotels, excursions and even your air price. You will
often also have the option of adding even more inclusives to your trip
or even adding days to your vacation.
Escorted travel
with Globus will allow you to travel with confidence. Globus has offices
located all around the globe so you can rest assured during your vacation
that you will never be stranded without access to our legendary customer
service. The Tour Directors all speak English, besides their native tongue,
and often other languages. They are also some of the most experienced in
the business, averaging almost 150 vacations each, which also helps avoid
confusion or problems for you on a Globus vacation.
You will also
have the peace of mind of Globus' $10 million consumer protection plan
while you travel domestically or abroad. You can even (for a small fee)
be sure that if an emergency came up before your trip you could cancel
or reschedule it easily.
The best way
to experience the benefits of escorted travel is to choose the Globus vacation
that is best for you and then trust Globus to provide you with a superb
travel experience.
