The 3 days tours around...
Jean_E, Sep 2023
The 3 days tours around Banff ans Aspen national parks were excellent. However, the pic of VIA trip to Vacouver with dome views are false advertisements. We were told that we cabin to sleep as the journey takes 23hrs. We had to sleep by reclining our seats. Also the train was delayed more than 6hrs. Therefore our plans are canceled in VACOUVER as our flight back home is next day
Response from Host, Nov 2023
Dear Jean, We greatly appreciate your feedback regarding your recent experience with us. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we take your concerns seriously. However, we are truly sorry to hear about the disappointment and inconvenience you faced during the VIA Rail trip to Vancouver, particularly with the dome views and the train delay. We take your concerns seriously and would like to address them accordingly. Regarding the arrangement of the VIA, as mentioned in our Viator listing, the default option for the VIA Rail journey is indeed seat tickets. If you want to have other seating option, we are very welcome to contact us to know more details about the upgrade. We aim to provide accurate and transparent information to our customers to ensure they make informed choices about their travel experiences. We apologize for any misunderstanding in this regard. We understand that the train delay disrupted your plans in Vancouver, and this is certainly not the experience we want our customers to have. We will report your feedback to VIA Rail to investigate the reasons behind the delay and explore potential measures to reduce such occurrences in the future. Your comments will assist us in working together with VIA Rail to enhance the overall travel experience for our customers. Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience you experienced during your journey. We genuinely value your feedback and will use it to improve our services and communication to ensure a more enjoyable and seamless travel experience for our customers.
