Beautiful sights of Canadian Rockies

Aksh_R, Sep 2023

Great sights of Canadian Rockies in comfortable bus seats. Selection of Hotels was nice - close to the main center of activities. Will give a high rating on above. But for the Tour guide I would assign a rating of 2 or under. He was local, knowledgeable, had lots of fun facts to share but many were actually borderline racist jokes - which can be best done away with. I would highly recommend a culture training for the Tour guide.

Excellent Tour of the Canadian Rockies!

Jill_W, Aug 2023

This tour exceeded our expectations! The motorcoach was not packed full of people, so we had plenty of space, and getting on and off was quick and easy. Our tour guide, Brad, was phenomenal! He shared so much information and ran a tight ship. Stops were timed beautifully, and we saw SO many wonderful sites. Our fellow travelers were friendly, and we enjoyed connecting with them. My goal was to get to Banff, and I had no idea how many exciting places I would see along the way. Thank you for providing this tour!

Fantastic and well worth the money

Sue_R, Aug 2023

What a brilliant trip! Our tour guide (Jeff) was excellent providing interesting facts as the tour progressed, useful info on where to eat, what to look out for etc willing to take photos, a good sense of humour - he was brilliant. Brian (our driver) - and an excellent one, polite, professional and quietly funny! Pointed out and safely slowed down as we passed a bear and elks roaming freely. The itinerary enabled many beautiful sights to be seen and the timings were good with sufficient time to see things. Plenty of rest stops for the coach duration. Accommodation was great (especially in Banff). The age group was simillar to myself (58) or slightly younger and the trip made even more enjoyable as there were other solo travellers to lunch and explore with if you chose to. Highlights were the glacier trip and staying in Banff - would love to return again and highly recommend this company for a guided tour.

Awesome!!!

Joanne_v, Jul 2023

Absolutely stunning trip. Spend a lot of time in the bus, which was comfortable and always clean. We had a wonderful driver and guide! Accomodation in Banff absolutely stunning - very nice to have two nights there. All round excellent value for money.

Wonderful tour of Canadian Rockies for those with limited time

RAISSA_C, Jul 2023

Our guide Bradley was excellent. Very knowledgeable, engaging, organized, and helpful. Paul our driver was pleasant and a safe driver. The tour exceeded my expectations and the itinerary was perfect for a short excursion in the Rockies. The bus was not full which allowed us to spread out, had it been full it would have been uncomfortable because there is little legroom and lacks cup holders and trays for snacks etc. this is important since we spent so much time in the bus every day. The tour company was very organized and responsive.

The spetacular view of...

pingchung_c, Oct 2022

The spetacular view of the glacier. Sad to see it is retreating. Jeff is a knowlegeable guide , and ample time to explore.

Fantastic Mother’s Day Banff trip!

Sonia_D, May 2022

It was a great Mother’s Day Banff trip! My mom and I enjoyed it immensely. Brad, (also known as Brad Pitt) the tour guide and Kevin the driver were wonderful. Would highly recommend it, dress in many layers.

Response from Host, May 2022

Hello Sonia, we are very happy to hear that you and your mother had a great time in the Rockies. We will forward you some pictures of you in the Rockies shortly!

Una decepción

Cristina_d, Aug 2023

El paisaje es espectacular, pero la compañía con la que hicimos el tour no estuvo a la altura. El primer día fueron 12 horas y media de bus y fue un palizón. Al día siguiente se rompió el bus y la compañía nos tuvo 4 horas parados en el mismo pueblo, hasta que no encontró otro bus, muy pequeño y que fue muy lento hasta el destino final. Ese día no pudimos hacer nada de las actividades programadas. Aún esperamos unas disculpas de la compañía, así como alguna compensación.

Response from Host, Aug 2023

Firstly, we wish to apologize regarding the unforeseen motorcoach breakdown in Jasper. It's our mission to offer seamless travel experiences and mitigate any unpredictable situations that may arise during long drives. For this reason, we charter buses that are under 6 years old with reliable bus companies. However, we acknowledge that this incident has caused unwelcome disruption to the trip. Please accept our sincerest apologies for any inconvenience this may have caused. On August 3, Key West Travel and the charter bus company made immediate efforts to resolve the issue. We contacted various bus companies in the area, however, none had any buses or drivers available on short notice. We even contacted taxi companies to arrange transportation to Columbia Icefield, but they were not available. Fortunately, one of our partner companies, managed to provide the transfer to Banff. Regrettably, due to mandated driving hour restrictions, the bus couldn't make as many stops during the drive, except at Athabasca Falls. It's heartening to note, as per our tour guide’s feedback, that despite this delay, you managed to visit most of the key destinations on our itinerary. We trust that the Canadian Rockies' breathtaking landscapes offered some enjoyment amid the unexpected disruptions. Regarding your comment about the long drive: The journey from Vancouver to Jasper spans over 800 km and typically requires 11-12 hours of travel. By overnighting in Jasper, right in the heart of the Rockies, travelers get to spend more time exploring this beautiful region. The information regarding travel times was included in the itinerary sent to you right after you booked the tour. Once again, we appreciate your feedback and thank you for joining our tour.
