Special Event Vacations

For up-close views and behind-the-scenes glimpses of famous celebrations, Globus Special Event vacations are the way to go. From Pasadena's Tournament of Roses Parade and Alaska’s Iditarod race to Albuquerque's famous Balloon Fiesta and Quebec’s Winter Carnival, you'll not only witness exciting events, you’ll take part in them as well. See the start of Alaska’s famous Iditarod race. Experience the thrill of witnessing the mass ascension of balloons at the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta, where the sky turns into a rainbow of colors. Enjoy a cocktail at North America’s only Ice Hotel in a homemade ice glass during Quebec City’s Winter Carnival. But that’s not all. Globus doesn’t just bring you to the special events, we also include special treats, such as the Musher’s Banquet, where you’ll see the mushers draw for starting positions in the Iditarod; a special authentic Southwestern dinner in Santa Fe; dinner on board the historical RMS Queen Mary in Los Angeles; or dinner at a traditional sugar shack complete with live music and a horse-drawn sleigh ride in Quebec. These are just a few of the highlights offered with Globus.
