Stella C. | Traveled in September
My experience was AWESOME. MY FAVORITE MEMORIES WERE the fine dining and the entertainment. It was a dream coming to fruition at a very special time. My retirement cruise.
John | Traveled in September
Carl our leader demonstrated a high level of knowledge about every location we visited. He drove us safely over I guess 3000 miles; recommended superb restaurants; and was an open friendly chap.

I did this trip with my 84 year parents. The itinerary was reasonable and allowed for lots of options. We were able to have down time when needed and walking was variable so flexible based on people’s abilities.
Gayle T. | Traveled in August
I thoroughly enjoyed this tour. We visited the main cities in both Canada and USA and had plenty of free time to go out and explore areas that we already had seen or to others that we had been recommended to.
Frances M. | Traveled in August
Trip was a lot of fun . Quebec City and Niagara Falls were my favorite cities. I really enjoyed the lunch at the winery and the stop at the Big Apple. The suppers we went to on the island and on our last night were so much fun. The tour guide, *personal info removed by Feefo* and *personal info removed by Feefo* the bus driver made it all so enjoyable. Thanks Trafalgar

Excursions were disappointing. Did not whales. Crabbing was also disappointing. Ride boat to where crabs were already caught. Said all crabs you could eat but cut us off after two portions.
