    This was my first solo trip and I had the BEST time! I?ve already recommended to lots of friends. It was great being able to visit so many beautiful places safely. A key benefit for me was that it was structured enough with the destinations and accommodation were all sorted yet you had the independence to do what you wanted in each location. I met some brilliant people! I?m already looking to book my next trip!

    This was a great trip for a solo female traveler like myself. I got to hike up a huge mountain in Banff and had high tea at the Fairmont in Lake Louise the next day. The ziplining in Whistler is a must. It's perfect for folks who want a wilderness adventure in the daytime, but like to stay in a hotel at the end of the day.

    The experience (my first G Adventures) was great. The other travelers were great, not having to worry about the logistics was great, and Fred was helpful and got us from place to place. I look forward to traveling with G Adventures again. Thank you!

    One word to describe the tour is "illuminating." It was illuminating to meet and get to know the fascinating travelers and CEO, people from Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany, Switzerland, and the US. It was illuminating to see the beauty and natural wonders of the Canadian Rockies, to experience the people of the region and, importantly to me, the to get exposure to area First Nation cultures in a museum in Whistler. It was illuminating to me as to my place in life at my age. And it was illuminating to see how my younger daughter, traveling with me, socialized and made friends within the group.

      Clients have another concern about 2day and 3 day doesnt show Breakfast..

    • G AdventuresOperatorWritten June 2025

      This tour includes 5 breakfasts and 1 lunch. From my count of breakfasts from the Full Itinerary, the breakfasts are included on Days 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. Lunch is included on Day 4. The hotel may have the option to purchase a breakfast service or it may be a matter of the traveller "fending for themselves" while in-destination for breakfast.
