What's included on a Cosmos escorted tour?
Transport
Private first-class coaches (most with free Wi-Fi), spectacular train rides, breathtaking cable car ascents, spectacular cruises, scenic day ferries - Cosmos offers a wonderful variety of transportation for a memorable travel experience.
Sightseeing
Our tours include guided sightseeing and scenic highlights that reveal the best of Europe, the U.S., Canada, Asia, Australia, and South America. Enjoy inside visits of the must-see sites with knowledgeable Local Guides who bring each destination to life.
Accommodation & meals
We include some meals to save you time and money, yet we also leave enough free time so you can sample your destination’s gastronomic delights on your own. We select hotels with the best guestrooms (always with a private bathroom), service, and food for your money.
Flexibility
We build free time into every Cosmos tour, so you can eat, shop, and explore the way you want. We give you the freedom to truly personalise your trip with optional excursions that are meaningful to you: make your selection, and even prepay for most of them, in advance at MyCosmos.
The best Tour Directors
At the heart of every great Cosmos tour are the friendly, knowledgeable Tour Directors and Local Guides who show you around and help you get the most out of the place you visit. We only work with the best: our expert Tour Directors have a 96% customer satisfaction rating.
Peace of mind
All our holidays are covered by a scheme of financial protection through ABTA or ATOL. We're proud to be the first escorted touring company to become Good Housekeeping Reader Recommended, giving you extra peace of mind about your holiday choice.
Cosmos Lite - the independent way to tour
An escorted tour is a great way to explore an unfamiliar region. But what if you want the reassurance of knowing that your accommodation and transport are all organised, but with the freedom to explore independently? Cosmos Lite may be the perfect holiday for you.
Just like a normal Cosmos escorted tour, a Cosmos Lite tour follows a daily itinerary with a Tour Director who will bring your journey to life as you travel between cities. Your accommodation and transport are all taken care of too. The difference is that there aren't any excursions included. That means you can explore independently each day or purchase optional excursions led by our expert Local Guides, should you wish to.
Flexible yet hassle-free. Have your cake and eat it - whenever and wherever you like!
