What people love about touring Canadian Rockies solo
Very well organized tour.No complaint.
5-Day Canadian Rockies Adventure: Banff, Jasper & Yoho National Parks Tour
- 12 Day Rockies Hiking and Camping Tour
Overall this tour was brilliant. I met some really amazing people and saw some of the most beautiful scenery I have ever laid eyes on in my life. I got to switch off from the monotony of day to day life and hike the legs off myself, pushing myself to my absolute fitness limits - which is exactly what I wanted from the trip. There wasn't too much time spent driving to our hikes which was great. There was obviously no expense spared when it came to the food provided for us and we ate really well throughout. The tour guides were super knowledgeable and generally a lot of fun - Morgan in particular made the trip for me by just being her crazy (in a good way) self. she was extremely kind and looked after us all so well. We all had some really great laughs and I will genuinely never forget the experience. As with almost anything, I believe there are some areas I would suggest could be improved upon, but I will address that privately with Fresh Adventures. Thanks again for a great trip #canadianrockiesposse2022
- 9 Day Rockies Hiking and Camping Tour
Alex was a wonderful guide and host on the 9 day hike through the Rockies. He is friendly, knowledgeable about the places we hiked through and very accommodating to his guests needs. I cannot emphasise enough the quality and variety of the food provided, ranging from blueberry pancake breakfasts and cheese fondue lunches to chargrilled steak and fish taco dinners. It truly made the trip all the more special and unique to Fresh Adventures. The tent, sleep mat and sleeping bag provided served me well, keeping me warm and dry through some inclement weather. Be prepared to pitch in by putting up and taking down your tent and gear. You'll reach grandmaster level after 8 nights. The hikes we went on varied from reasonably gentle to challenging, depending on your fitness level. For the more challenging hikes, Alex provided options for those who didn't feel up to it. The other activities on offer, such as horse riding and a stroll around Jasper also added variety to the trip. If you're looking for a hiking/camping trip with a difference, Fresh Adventures is a safe bet. Thanks for a great experience Alex!
