North America Train Trips

The surprise snowfall was a treat. The roads were not affected and we were able to ride safely for miles and enjoy the scenery! The Fairmont hotels were wonderful but nothing surpassed the beautiful Canadian Rockies. A good tour guide rounded out the wonderful experience.

I have told several people that even if they have only one more bucket list trip in them, this is the tour I'd recommend. From the beauty of the Butchart Gardens to the glacial lakes and towering Canadian Rockies, the experience was stunning. Our accommodations and transportation were top drawer! My personal peak experience (pun intended) was the helicopter ride, during which we viewed mountains and glacial fields up close. This was a truly outstanding experience!

LOVED the tour!!! Jovanka Mrdja was an amazing tour manager.....loved her. The only issue was the train was cold....the attendants (Chloe, Naomi and Tasa) said they were having an issue with the air conditioning. They were very kind.....giving us a blanket which helped!!! There wasn't one memorable experience.....loved the train, the mountains, Butchart Gardens, waterfalls, the Glaciers and the great hotels. Thank you, Collette, for organizing our trip.

The accommodations, dinning options, tour manager were excellent and very upscale. The tour manager was so well informed and jolly good fun. The train although meals were good was disappointing. Not much viewed while on train.

There was not one thing that I did not enjoy. I really liked the horse carriage ride and the meal that we had at end of the 45 minute ride. The Ice Fields were especially interesting and educational. The one criticism that I would have is at the “surprise” place we ate our evening meal at the restaurant on top of the mountain. People should have been told that we were going up the gondola. The people that have a fear of heights would not have had to suffer. They should have had a choice. Our guide was superior! He made the trip much more interesting and was very knowledgeable. All the hotels were terrific and the food was superior at every single place. I certainly would recommend this trip to anyone and would do it again myself

Every day included an experience that was spectacular. I can not pick a favorite. The Canadians were extremely hospitable. The scenery, ice fields, train ride, wagon ride, raft trip were fantastic ways to experience our adventure.
