What people love about Alberta Tours for Seniors
- Great Resorts of the Canadian Rockies
Our tour guide was Jennifer - and she was superb! Her love for the area, the history and the beauty of this country was always on display. Her enthusiasm was infectious, still she was able to accommodate a diverse collection of needs from our group of 42. Jennifer was a delight. Your survey has a glitch - citing the guide, even with a name, does not provide any means of submitting that information. Very frustrating as the tour guide is the most critical feature of the trip.
- Canada's Rockies (7 Days)
Ben Hutchinson, tour guide for the absolutely magnificent Canadian Rockies seven day tour made a wonderful experience into one that I will never forget. He went well above making this the best vacation I have had in years. His knowledge, adding many funny and education stories and being there for every single person went over the top to make this a trip that I would recommend to all of my friends.
- Canada's Rockies (8 Days) (8 destinations)
this tour canadian rockies tour with Rocky... mountaineer was fantastic...The scenery and places we went were terrific..Very well organized and run,,,it was our 2nd time with Trafalgar
