  GLOBE TRIPS  

Globe Trips was born from the requests of our worldwide clients and affiliate partners to offer them more destinations and services than our sister company Golden Tours and the passion of the team in London to broaden the horizon. We have built a worldwide website, proposing tours, activities, excursions, cruises, tickets and packages, sourced from tried and tested local suppliers. We hand picked these suppliers to offer the same level of service and quality as our sister company Golden Tours.

We will be increasing our destination coverage and the number of activities proposed very quickly over the next few months so make sure to come back often to see what’s new and exciting to experience on your next globetrip.

Golden Tours has been established since 1984 and is London’s leading sightseeing company and is also part of the international Gray Line family serving millions of satisfied customers in more than 150 destinations on the six continents. They cover all the well known attractions and offer a wide range of sightseeing tours, rail products, evening tours, cruises, Paris by Eurostar, theatre tickets and much more.

THE GLOBETRIPS PRICE GUARANTEE:

We want you to book with us knowing that you won’t find a better price online.

We check our prices against all our competitors regularly so that you can buy with confidence.

When you are booking a product or service through Globetrips we want you to be confident that firstly, you’ve picked a high quality service and secondly, that you are guaranteed the best price.

Our guarantee is simple. Book any service online with Globetrips and if you find the identical service (same operator/same product/same time and day) anywhere else online cheaper (within 24 hours) we will match the price and give you an extra 10% off future purchases.

To take advantage of our price guarantee, if within 24 hours of your purchase you find a lower rate for the exactly the same service on another internet site (same product, same conditions, same currency), just send us a web screen print by email to our customer care team priceguarantee@globetrips.com including all your booking details and full details of the website you have seen offering a better price together with the date you saw the offer to submit a claim under the Best Price Guarantee. Our team will check and authorise the refund if necessary. All refund decisions will be made at the sole discretion of Globetrips. Refunds of the price difference will be processed to the credit card used for the original booking. Please note: Globetrips will only process one "Best Price Guarantee" refund per tour or activity purchased and that show, concert and sports / event tickets are not covered by Globetrips Best Price Guarantee.

The Best Price Guarantee is not available for bookings on websites where the supplier, accommodation, rental car company, itinerary or similar booking details are unknown until after purchase (opaque or secret deal bookings). You must meet all requirements imposed on the lower price (if any), including, without limitation, residency, regional and age-related requirements. The Best Price Guarantee applies only to prices both advertised and available to the general public on an English-language website. For example, this does not include rates offered on membership program websites, rewards program, incentive, meeting, convention, consolidator or interline/travel trade prices; corporate discounts or rates; group, charter, prices obtained via auction or similar process; or prices available only by using a coupon or other promotion not offered to the general public. The lower rate may not come from a website where you call to get the rate, or from an e–mail that you received.
