Can anyone tell me the difference in quality for Globus vs. Collette?

We've been on 5 Globus tours, all of which were excellent. BUT, the best tour we were ever on was a Collette tour of New Zealand. The hotels were superb and what we liked best was that we could go to the dining room on our own and not eat with the rest of the tour. Sometimes we ordered off the menu, other times a fixed menu. Look and compare all the "whats included" and the optionals that will tell you the most. Somtimes Globus looks cheaper (like Austrlia), but by the time you add in the additional costs, it actually can cost more. Bottom line, both tour companies are wonderful. We leary of Trafalgar---too many drive bys and seeing, not visiting, also they pack the bus FULL. too many people on their tours. Good luck. :
