What people love about touring Canadian Rockies solo
- 4-Day Canadian Rockies Summer Explorer Tour
It was funtastic! Enjoyed!
- 5-Day Canadian Rockies Adventure: Banff, Jasper & Yoho National Parks Tour
The scenery was truly amazing. I felt the tour was disorganized and confusing. Our group was split up and we stayed at 3 different hotels. The itinerary was always changing and we had different sized buses/mini buses so we had multiple drivers and quides. One couple got on the wrong bus. Some hotels were good but then the next one would be sub-standard. We were supposed to go to Jasper but couldn't because of a wildfire but the change was good and other activities were planned.The drivers and guides were good. In particular Sammy and Allen. There should be something in writing that the group would be staying a 3 different hotels and that according to your itinerary, you might ride on a mini bus with other group members. The tour on the whole was hood and I enjoyed
- 12 Day Rockies Hiking and Camping Tour
This was my fave holiday EVER! I came back feeling strong, fit, healthy, and very happy! The hikes were fantastic - challenging and picturesque. The progress through the trip was great and I was delighted to complete the Cory Pass hike at the end of the trip, knowing how much fitter I was. Jafar and Kev were awesome guides. They fed us very well, made us feel safe (bears in camp!) and were super encouraging. And great fun too. Our fellow travellers were also fantastic, we made some lifelong friends. I feel I’ve been spoilt for any future group hiking trips! We would definitely travel with fresh adventures again
