Alicia P. | Traveled in June
I WOULD LIKE TO EXTEND THE TRIP 1 DAY MORE AT THE END IN ORDER TO KNOW MONTREAL MORE. I THINK MONTREAL IS INTERESTING CITY AND WORTH TO STAY 2 NIGHTS.
Betsy H. | Traveled in June
The coach was good. Not a full bus so we could spread out. Itinerary went to plan, saw everything that was on the itinerary. Only on the last hotel which was in New Orleans was disappointing. Staff very rude, stayed three nights but no fresh towels or rubbish emptied.
Donna B. | Traveled in June
I thoroughly loved everyday on our adventure calendar. There was a perfect amount of time doing all that was planned. All the places that we stayed were comfortable and clean. Most had good a good breakfast to start our day. All the places we visited I really appreciated being taken to as I would never have know about some of them. There was always good story about where we were going to get us excited about what we were doing. The Oregon coast is simply gorgeous and the Redwoods are magical. Also, the bus we had for our travels was very comfortable. I can’t wait to find my next adventure with Trafalgar!
Caroline | Traveled in June
really fantastic trip. Everything was brilliant - amazing accommodation and vehicle, leader and lovely other travellers. Itinery - long - but it had to be to cover the whole distance. Only one issue - stayed in Canmore for 3 nights, but never got to see Canmore. I did ask - and had we got up just one hour earlier - it would have been easy to fit in. Just a not to the organisers- that's all.

Tour manager was awesome. Clare has excellent communication skills. Enjoyed all the arranged activities, especially visiting the lavender gardens, the First Nations, and the goat farm. I hope Collette adds more small group tours in the future.
Katherine M. | Traveled in June
The sense of history experienced and the number of places seen; Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard , the walking tour of Boston and the magnificent Breakers in RI is something we couldn't have done on our own. Secret gems also appreciated such as the monument in Plymouth. I also appreciated there was time to explore on our own before returning the tour.
