Canadian Rockies & Glacier National

Visited many sites in a very condensed time frame. Getting on and experiencing the Athabasca Glacier and visiting and seeing Lake Louise will be a forever memory.

Kelly was fabulous!! I just can’t say enough— her knowledge of the area, the history, her anecdotes and bus games were outstanding. She encouraged everyone to mix and mingle, which provided another level of interest. I personally would have liked more time for hiking and exploring, although it was a level 2 activity tour, asI have back issues and spent too much time sitting in the bus, during sightseeing excursions and at meals. In terms of accommodations, the Calgary Marriott and Banff Inn were great. The Bayshore at Waterton Lake was not up to the same standards. You may want to explore other options in town.

The tour was fantastic! We saw so many breathtaking spots and every day was set up so well. Our tour manager/guide - Kelly was absolutely phenomenal. She knew so much about each area we saw, and her personality was so cheerful and funny - no matter what time it was or what we were doing. She herself was a highlight. My favorite location on the trip was Lake Louise. I would absolutely do another tour like this in the future.

Hard to say since it’s the awesome scenery that makes the trip memorable

Everything

this tour was amazing and especially our tour guide. she was so friendly, helpful, kind, entertaining and full of information she was so willing to share. keep her she is lovely and so dedicated and goes upand above expectations. such a sweetheart

This was our first Collette tour and it exceeded expectations! The area is beautiful on its own and our tour director Laurie Newman’s genuine love for Canada was evident every day. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed the gorgeous green lakes (my favorite color)! I could just drink them into my eyes. The majestic mountains were a close second. I don't get to see these at home.

This was the most relaxing, beautiful and interesting experience in many years. I loved the ice walk at the top of the glacier, the wild ride in the big,red, ******* car but most of all, the MAGNIFICENT landscape of Canada and Montana. Can’t wait to see more!

Outstanding trip! Weather & tour manager helped but the places we saw & went to were perfect! Loved the little mountain town of Waterton, Montana's Glacier Park "Road to the Sun" with the Jammer Cars. Loved Banff- could have had a bit more time there. Loved the beautiful lakes and of course Athabasca Glacier at the Columbia Icefields!!! My second time with tour manager Jovanka M. She is absolutely the best! Ran a lovely tour. :)

Lake Louise was beautiful. Loved walking around the Lake

Has a great time on this trip. We saw so much in such a short period of time.

This tour is exactly what I wanted to see and do- mountains and lakes! Our tour guide, Kelly was superb. She was full of information and delivered her expertise in all things with an entertaining air. This is not a demanding tour. There is a lot of bus rides and photo opportunities. However, be prepared with plenty of warm clothing for the visit to the glacier! I have only two 'complaints'- one is the motel in Waterton, placed strategically on the lake with a beautiful view of the mountains and lake, had rooms overlooking the parking lot, which was less than desirable. With only a blackout curtain to block out all light and an extremely noisy air conditioner, being on the ground floor overlooking the parking lot with a big truck parked in front of my room was very disappointing. The other complaint would be the included dinner in Banff at The Boss. It was not very good. Banff is a very beautiful town, but very crowded. Lake Louise is also very beautiful, but very very crowded. All other included excursions were great. Especially the included dinner the last night in Calgary was spectacular. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. Oh, also be prepared for lots of early mornings!
