Amazing landscape and professional staff
Trip was good for me. Not good at all for my husband who walk with a cane, however the trip was recommended by one of your rep. timing for sightseeing was not long enough for him to get off the bus and return. It was a waste for him.
Trip to Heaven. Beautiful mountains, lakes, forest and animals.
The itinerary includes a tour of Banff and that was one of the considerations for choosing this tour package but the only part of Banff I got to see was the bus station! So that was very disappointing. The rest of the tour was fine.

Pick up and drop off at our hotel was convenient. Driver was knowledgeable. Several stops along the way to take pictures or to get a better look at attractions.
