The Globus family of brands is winding down its Monograms independent touring brand, replacing it with a new concept dubbed Independence by Globus, which offers the benefits of group travel - without the group.
"With Independence by Globus, our guests are free to enjoy the many benefits of touring, on their own and without the group," said Globus managing director Stéphanie Bishop. "They can look forward to enjoying travelling better in destinations across the globe, on their own, with hand-picked hotel accommodations, hand-selected optional excursions and the services of local experts to uncover the perfect ways to spend their days on vacation."
As with all Globus journeys, on an Independence by Globus vacation, Globus takes care of the details with included accommodations, daily breakfasts, select guided sightseeing and transportation between cities. The company can also handle flight arrangements and airport transfers.
Independence by Globus offers a pair of vacation options:
-- "Independent City Stays" featuring some of the world's most spectacular cities across Europe, South America and Asia.
-- "Independent Tours" offering travellers a larger swath of featured destinations and countries around the globe.
Travellers who choose an Independence by Globus itinerary can explore confidently with the expert support they need, including helpful hints and recommendations from Globus Local Hosts to help them make the most of free time. They also have access to the brand's GlobusGO app packed with insider tips that invite them to explore their destination like a local.
Independence by Globus also provides a list of hand-selected optional excursions to enhance their getaways as well as seamless extensions and destination add-ons to keep the adventure going.
"For those who love Globus but want to venture further, enjoying the world their way, without the group, Independence by Globus gives travellers the "I" time they crave on vacation," added Bishop.
