Globus has unveiled its 2020 line-up of South Pacific vacations, including five new escorted group itineraries.
“We’re seeing a significant increase in interest in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji as travellers put them high on their wish-lists,” says Stéphanie Bishop of the Globus family of brands’ Canadian office. “As a result, we’ve increased our vacations by 50% with new, immersive journeys to Australia – including Tasmania – and to New Zealand.”
Transportation is by air-conditioned motorcoach with free Wi-Fi so passengers can share their memories as they happen.
Globus' five new South Pacific tours, ranging from nine to 25 days, include:
Wild Tasmania (9 days)
Travellers will explore the wilds of Tasmania, kicking things off in the capital Hobart before continuing on to Mount Field National Park, cruising along the Gordon River to find Cradle Mountain National Park, and visiting a sanctuary famous for the notorious Tasmanian Devil and a Penguin Tour.
