We were a group of 4 adults (family) and everyone has the same positive feedback.
The tour was great. The sights were incredible, the hotels were luxurious and our group was fun.
What made this tour even more enjoyable was our guide Will ..and our assistant guide Kira. They were resourceful, knowledgeable, accommodating, funny and just great company. They were quick to address any issues and did everything they could to make our experience even more enjoyable.Read full review
Loved the experience, made me proud to be a Canadian. We have some many beautiful wonders in this country. Riding through the mountains, visiting lakes and falls and the charming towns added to the experience. The hosts, Christopher and Ian.. were awesome. They were a great team with a wealth of information. The group was friendly and a joy to be with. Overall, some great memories.Read full review
Amazing experience with this tour, you discover the essence of Canada. Its Rocky mountains along with its lakes are spectacular.
The pace of the tour is adequate, maybe you spend a lot of time in the bus and the stops are quick, but there i..s not another way in 4 days to be able to see as many emblematic landscapes as possible.
Special mention for Becky, we have never had a guide like her: kind, funny, attentive, well organized, always punctual, patient... unbeatable. Thank you! Read full review
How does one start describing this experience? Truly nothing short of extraordinary! 11 days going from the Interior, to the Rockies, Northern BC and then down to the Island from North to South, it was honestly a month's worth of traveling ..and adventure. There was a lot planned but there was also enough time to do additional optional activities or just have free time to explore. The planning and break down of the trip was top notch!
Our guide and driver Meghan did an excellent job sharing knowledge and information, making sure everyone was comfortable and had everything they need, planning for stops and drive throughs at the most amazing hidden gems. She has set the bar high as to what a tour guide should be like! The bus we travelled on was spotless and cleaned every day and was extremely comfortable.
This was such a great experience that we're already scouring the site for our next trip!Read full review
I took the Rocky Summer Classic tour with Discover Canada. It was amazing and fun trip. Omar and Rin made sure the entire trip was fun and organized. Along the way Omar also told us stories and facts about different places in BC and Alberta... To top it off, we also played Trivia. I will definitely take a tour again with Discover Canada.Read full review
Wow. Wow! This tour was incredible and I highly recommend it. The lakes, waterfalls, wildflowers, Rockies were spectacular. The vastness and pureness of Canada’s wilderness is breathtaking! Itinerary is wonderful with lots of free time in.. the evenings. Hikes, shops, food or simply sipping wine amongst such spectacular beauty. Do you love to laugh? Meet new friends from around the world? Don’t wait to book this tour. Our tour guide Nigel was so warm, funny and knowledgeable about all areas we were in. Even jumped in almost every lake w whoever wanted to join him! He was fantastic. A ++Read full review
Banff has been on my bucket list to visit. When I had the chance to visit Vancouver I really wanted to do a tour to Banff and I found Discovery Canada Tours - everything was so wonderful, from the initial email enquiry to the actual Canadia..n Rockies trip in April 23.
Our tour guides Omar and Gary were both excellent, knowledgeable and accommodating. The drives were long at time but they kept us informed and entertained. The driver Paul also shared great information along the way and many thanks for slowing down and stopping when safe to do so whenever we encountered Canadian wildlife. What a wonderful experience. Although it really did not occur to me beforehand that the lakes are all still frozen at the end of April, we didn't get to see the beautiful colours but walking on frozen lake and playing with the super soft and satisfying snow was also a great experience. I will surely be recommending Discover Canada Tours, and look forward to joining another tour with Discover Canada on my next trip to Vancouver. Thanks again.Read full review

Accommodations, meals, vehicle met and many times exceeded expectations. Each day offered new adventures, sites, options.

Great value for money. The support from Jennifer at head office to reconfigure end of trip helpful as well. Thanks for memorable holiday in the west.Read full review
Covers all the key attractions. Our tour group was about 22 people and was the perfect size. The hotels were also great.
The views and breakfast at the top of Sulphur Mountain (included as part of tour) was a highlight! Would also recommend.. doing the optional Athabasca Glacier excursion. Our tour guide and driver were superb! Five out of five tour!Read full review
Driver Will and guide Kira were the best. They were professional and went beyond to make the tour fabulous! Hotels were top notch and the bus ride very comfortable especially for my very tall husband. We are so glad that we choose this tour.. over the Rocky Mountaineer train. There was a great mix of people. Couples and solo travelers alike.Read full review
A long (+3,000 kmn) trip but in thoughtfully planned segments and with frequent stops to walk a trail, visit a cultural centre, or enjoy either down time or an optional extra activity. Meghan, our guide/driver, was outstanding: skilled, rel..iable, dedicated, constantly attentive, yet wrapped it all up in good humour and fun. She created an atmosphere to which we all responded. This trip is a good choice for people who are themselves good-humoured, patient, and both interested in and respectful of the natural world and the First Nations people who are so deeply woven into it all.Read full review
Our guide Kara organized everything so well, she was always nice and so patient. Thank you again! The bus was comfortable and the group just great! We saw all these beautiful places and a lot of wildlife, even bears.Quick and friendly servi..ce.I would definetely book with them again.Read full review
This trip was for our 25th wedding anniversary and we've never been to Canada before. What an awesome way to see and learn about a country!!! If you like awesome scenery, getting out and experiencing nature, and learning about history and c..ulture this company is for you!
Our tour guide Meghan was organized, professional, friendly, and fun! She is an excellent driver and makes the traveling very fun. We were given a Bingo sheet of things to be on the lookout for which made it very fun. We had a small, friendly group of 10 travelers which also made it very fun! Our bus was very comfortable and Meghan kept it very clean. We got out to do short hikes and see beautiful waterfalls, so we got to stretch our legs. You are given choices of activities to do which are "a la carte." We did the gondola ride in Banff, the boat ride to Spirit Island on Maligne Lake, kayaking on the Campbell River, and Buchart Gardens for our extras. Even riding the huge ferry from Prince Rupert to Port Hardy was an amazing experience through the Interior Passages. We saw Bald Eagles in the trees along the way and everything was just so scenic!
We had heard about the passing of Queen Elizabeth at the beginning of our trip and when we were toward the end of our trip in Victoria we came into town at the very moment they had the bells tolling 96 times for her 96 years. We were able to pull over and participate in the solemn moment of silence with those gathered there at the Parliament building with the flags at half mast to honor the Queen. That was a moment in history that will never be repeated and that was very special. My husband and I toured the Royal B.C. Museum and loved it. The Natural History exhibit and the Climate Change exhibit were great. We loved the Train Time IMAX movie, as well. It was all about the train history in the US, and had wonderful music, scenery, and graphics. It made me appreciate trains in our world,
This was, by far, the best vacation I have ever experienced and am so thankful for the memories. At times the scenery is so breathtaking you can't take it all in. Canada is so beautiful and it is overwhelmingly beautiful. The people are so nice, and it is very clean. I am so thankful to Meghan and Discover Canada Tours for such an amazing, fun, and memorable journey! It was a trip of a lifetime!!! Look out for the Goats on a Roof!!!!Read full review
Tour is nice the driver/tour guide very nice.My only complained was the time allocated in banff gondola 1 hour is not enough we were not able to reach the top of sulfur mountain.But over all experience is amazing.Thank you
