    Overall, It was very enjoyable. There were times it was a little rushed but I understand. For us to see and do everything we wanted we would need to travel a lot. Our guide was very good and made the trip enjoyable.

    I enjoyed it immensely. All the places, sites were covered. It would have been excellent to stay in Jasper a second night. There was so much to do and no time to do it. Also it would be good to have a day of downtime. To relax and take in the scenery.

    Loved the whole experience. The tour guide was excellent (Brad) and so was Kieth the bus driver. The Rocky Mountaineer was also awesome. I would have liked to stay longer in jasper.

    Kevin

    Asked on June 29th, 2022

    Can a mobility scooter that can breakdown to smaller size fit under the bus?

    Transport
    • GlobusOperatorWritten June 2022

      We do our best to accommodate mobility concerns on our land tours. Generally speaking, we are able to accommodate a motorized scooter. If you do decide to book, let us know you are seeking accommodation immediately so we can confirm with operations whether that would be an issue on your particular tour/date.

    Asked on June 26th, 2022

    Is the rate the same for single travelers? Does the Canadian Spirit excursion include meals?

    Meals
    Single supplement
    • GlobusOperatorWritten June 2022

      Single travelers will have a single supplement added to their total cost. That additional cost varies depending on which tour date you choose.

      TravelerWritten July 2022

      Spirit of the Rockies trip in May or Sept small group of 24. What is the cost for a single traveler? The air is separate, correct? Can one use airline points when booking with you? Do many of your guests elevate to the gold level train and what is the upcharge? Do you have many single travelers on this trip?

    • GlobusOperatorWritten July 2022

      We only have one small group for May of 2023 (starting May 13). Price for the tour in a single accommodation is $8440. Air is separate and can only be provided by us from an airport originating in the US. We are not able to apply airline points. Airfare must be paid with credit card. Upgrade charge for Goldleaf service on the train is an additional $570. We only have a handful of people booked on this date and none of them are single travelers, but that very likely will change as we get closer to the departure date.
