Canadian Masterpiece with Rocky Mountaineer Reviews

My husband and I had a great holiday/tour throughout Canada with Cosmos. We call it a tour as you are up early and on the go, not much time for sleep ins. We appreciated the stays of 2 nights, as it gave us a chance to relax and explore. Our tour guide Sharon, was always on hand to answer any questions and give advice when needed. Sharon was very helpful read more and full of knowledge. The Rocky Mountaineer Gold Leaf was exceptional - staff are wonderful and the scenery stunning.

There are some places we would of preferred to have had a 2 nights stay, eg Whistler. When you do a bus trip, you get to see a lot of wonderful things but it is only a taste of the beauty of the places you visit. The hotels I thought were quaint and clean and all that we needed to rest at the end of the day. Our only hotel which was not to our satisfaction, was the Sandman City Hotel in Vancouver, old decor with dirty carpets. We would happily book again with Global Journeys, we both had an amazing time.

We were very happy with the service provided while on our Canadian Masterpiece Tour. Everything was as described in the itinerary. Our tour director and bus driver went above and beyond their duties to ensure we saw everything and to ensure our satisfaction. The service on the Rocky Mountaineer was also exceptional. We would organsie our travel with Global Journeys again.

This was our second tour with Cosmos and we enjoyed it. We went to some great places with wonderful scenery. Our tour guide was excellent and we had an unseasonably small group (only 13) which helped make it enjoyable. Unfortunately we could not go to Jasper due to fires in the area, but the alternative destinations and activities were good if not quite read more the same. Highlights included the Rocky Mountaineer train and some optional excursions such as the helicopter flight over the Rockies and whale-watching in Victoria. Most of the accommodation was good, though the Banff one was out of town, which made it difficult to go anywhere other than the hotel for dinner. We would have preferred breakfast to be included each day - a couple of times we were unable to have breakfast at the hotel and needed to find an alternative. Some of the days were very long including some early starts and late afternoon arrivals. But overall it was an excellent tour and a fantastic destination.

I can't say enough about the majestic scenery I've seen. Incredibly beautiful. Our guide Tarek had 26 years of experience to guide us through our journey and was a wealth of knowledge with other activities not included in the tour. On the whole, accommodation was clean and comfortable while being in the 3 star range. The Rocky Mountaineer was also a read more terrific starter to the entire trip. I rate this as a must do experience for couples, groups or solo travellers.

From booking with Global Journeys to travelling with Cosmos it was very good, sadly the hotel in Vancouver was not the best. But Sharon our your director was very knowledgeable about the whole journey, she was very considerate to us all. All the places we stopped at overnight were good. The Rocky Mountaineer trip was fantastic not to be missed.
