Amazing ‘Must Experience’ Rockies Tour
What an amazing experience from start to finish. From the greeting point to the final drop off, the tour was so well organised. Our guide Becky was amazing, bringing fun and insightful information that really made this a special trip. Our driver Charles not only got us to our destinations on time, but also added great conversation and personality. The itinerary was packed with great locations and the hotels were all high quality. Just wish it could have been a day or two longer. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Fabulous Tour
Fabulous Premium 5 dāy tour of The Rockies with Becky our star guide and Charles who not only drove but complemented Becky perfectly. Highlights were the mirror perfect reflections at Bow Lake, encountering a herd of elk on the Sundance Canyon bike & hike, (optional), the stunning views from Sulphur Mountain at Banff and wildlife spotting. We never got close to a bear but saw several. What capped it all was the wonderful group of fellow travellers we were lucky enough to share a the majesty of the mountains and lakes with.. We look forward to meeting up with you again.Thank you Discover Canada Becky and Charles.

Trip of a lifetime!!!Bucket list trip ✅
Alexis our guide and Richard our driver get 5 stars from my family!Alexis was fully engaged with my kids aged 25-11 and definitely wanted to make sure they had fun and got the most out of every stop we made!He clued us in to things he thought they would enjoy and I was most appreciative for that.Ar times the drives would seem long but Alexis was excellent with his knowledge and kept us attentive and alert to all we were going to see!!!We made memories to last a lifetime and Alexis added greatly to that!
Richard was a very safe driver and I always felt secure in his abilities!Some of those roads were treacherous and I felt he took his job very seriously and understood his immense responsibility for all on board his vehicle.We are most grateful for that!

Well done Becky and Charles 👏🏻👏🏻
We’ve had a fantastic time, so much better than we ever thought it might be, and that’s very much in large part, because of the phenomenal shift that both of you put in.
Wonderful!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

5 amazing days in the Rocky Mountains.
The incredible scenery in the Canadian Rocky Mountains and our wonderful guide Alexis made this Premium Rockies Summer Tour unforgettable. Alexis is a warm, funny, knowledgeable tour guide who loves his country and loves to share it with visitors. His knowledge of the history and geography of Canada in general and Alberta and British Columbia in particular was amazing. Our driver Sergei kept us safe on the long bus journeys. The included tours were fantastic. We had a great time.

Canada was incredible - Alexis & Charles made it even better.
This was an absolutely wonderful trip from start to finish. Our guide, Alexis, and our driver, Charles, were both exceptional.
Alexis’ love of Canada and its history brought so much extra color to the experience. Throughout the trip, she shared stories, history, and insights that added a whole new dimension to the places we were visiting. I came away knowing and appreciating so much more than I ever would have if I had taken this trip on my own.
Charles was equally wonderful. His driving was impeccable, and he handled the winding mountain roads with such ease that I could simply relax and enjoy the incredible scenery. There were definitely roads I would never have wanted to drive myself!
The entire trip was extremely well organized, and the hotels included in the tour were top-notch. The included breakfasts were also excellent and became a great opportunity to get to know some of the other people in our group.
The one low point was the group dinner on the first night. Unfortunately, the quality of the food was poor and really didn’t match the quality of the rest of the trip. Thankfully, that experience was the exception rather than the rule.
I also opted to do the evening canoe trip in Banff, and it was amazing. It ended up being one of the highlights of my trip, and I highly recommend adding it if you have the opportunity.
Overall, this was a fantastic experience made even better by Alexis and Charles. If you’re thinking about booking this trip, do it. You will not regret it.
Operator response
Thank you for taking the time to share such a thoughtful review! We’re so pleased to hear that you had such a wonderful experience from start to finish.
Alexis and Charles will be delighted to hear your kind words. It’s fantastic to know that Alexis’ passion for Canada, along with his stories and historical insights, added another layer to the places you visited. And we’re glad Charles’ excellent driving allowed you to sit back, relax, and take in the incredible Rockies scenery!
It’s also great to hear that you enjoyed the hotels, breakfasts, and the opportunity to connect with others in the group. We’re sorry the first-night dinner didn’t live up to the standard of the rest of the trip, and we greatly appreciate your honest feedback, and we'll take this back to the team!
We’re especially happy to hear the evening canoe trip was one of your highlights, it sounds like you made the most of your time in the Rockies! Thank you again for the fantastic recommendation and for travelling with us.

Canadian Rocky Travels
The trip was awesome. Our travel guide Alexis was great. He was very knowledgeable and had great stories. He shared the history of the places and people that helped shape Canada.
All the glacier lakes were stunning. The ice fields were amazing. I would recommend this trip to anyone who is coming to Vancouver.
Sergei our bus driver did an excellent job. It was nice having a qualified driver behind the wheel.
The only reason I’m not giving the tour 5 stars is the sleeping accommodations.
We stayed two nights in Banff. The hotel is located on the Main Street of Banff. If your room faces the street. The club’s stay open until 2 am. Very loud at night. I had to switch rooms to the back.
After leaving Jasper we stayed at a cabin Mike Wiegele ski resort. Beautiful property. Only problem were the trains ran all night. The trains blow a loud whistle since the tracks go over the road. I’m a light sleeper. If you can sleep through any kind of noise. These hotel issues won’t be a problem.
Lastly when you leave on Monday from Vancouver it’s a 12 hour trip to the hotel. I could have done without the winery, but I know some people may like it more than I.
The drive from Banff to the Cabin at the ski resort is long. We didn’t arrive until 9:30 pm.
Friday after visiting a few stunning waterfalls. You won’t arrive back to Vancouver until 8:30 pm.
Besides all the natural beauty and scenery. Alexis made the trip worth it. It’s not always easy to make 35 people happy. Alexis had great energy and helped make this trip a memorable one.

Thank you for taking the time to share such a detailed review! We’re thrilled to hear you had an awesome trip and that Alexis and Sergei helped make it such a memorable experience. Alexis will be especially happy to know that his stories, history, and knowledge brought the Rockies to life, while Sergei’s professionalism gave you confidence throughout the long drives.
It sounds like the scenery certainly delivered too! The glacier lakes, waterfalls, and Icefields are some of the most spectacular parts of the journey, and we glad you all these memories to take back with you!
We also really appreciate your honest feedback about the accommodations and the noise at both properties. We understand how disruptive that can be, especially for a light sleeper, and your comments are very helpful to us.
There’s a lot to fit into a Rockies itinerary, and we’re glad that despite the long days and a few challenges, Alexis’ energy and enthusiasm helped make the experience worthwhile. Thanks again for the recommendation and for travelling with us!
