The best part of the tour was the Rocky Mountaineer train, the views were amazing, the staff was wonderful, and the train cars were very comfortable. The whole area is beautiful and breath taking, from Lake Louise and Banff to the inside passage of Alaska. For us the Magical Old-Growth Creek Trek on Ketchikan was the highlight of the Alaska voyage. Ketchikan was simply beautiful.

The best part of the trip was the get-together when we shared our experiences and said our good-byes. Jackie Stopchycki is 100% responsible for making sure that everything ran smoothly. Every day she gave us the information we needed to get through each day. The Rocky Mountaineer Railway wait staff pampered us like I have never been pampered before. The Zaandam staff were excellent - room keepers, wait staff in the dining room, and everyone we encountered. The young people who pushed me up the gangway in a wheelchair did their jobs with care and respect. I remember this trip fondly.
