    Great tour. Somewhat disappointed with the start of the tour in Vancouver. The tour starts today banner was misleading for day 1. Our choice was a free day or pay another $530 for the optional tour. Lake Louise, Banff, Columbia Icefield, Lake Peyto were great. The train gold level experience was fantastic. And, Danielle Marchese our tour guide was super.

    We saw most of the sites we came to see, the only negative thing was there were too many people on the tour!! And there's always one or two that hold up the whole group! We would have also liked to have had more options for meals. For the most part they were just so so. But for a first time in NYC. I'm glad we did a tour.

    Was impressed with quality of service, pick up and drop off, Matt in the lobby to welcome us and give us our keys. Enjoyed the plays and the restaurants, except for the last breakfast in the hotel. Wish we had more energy to see more things in our spare time, but we were worn out from all the walking.

    I loved seeing the Christmas Tree in Rockefeller Center. Have seen it for many years on TV and could not believe I was actually seeing it in person. It was really crowded but worth standing out in the cold to experience it!
