What people love about Fully Guided Tours in Canada
- Vancouver Island & Northern Rockies
Great tour leader! Energetic and friendly. Didn’t take into account varying abilities. Great participants but the energy level of the tour was a bit much for me. Didn’t like racing down the trail. Approaching 70, maybe tour wasn’t right for me. Itinerary was lousy except for two days: inside passage and Icefields highway. Good time overall. Thanks, Storm!
- Canadian Rockies
The two weeks that I spent with Jacob on our camping tour of the Canadian Rockies was amazing.
- Coho - Explore Banff & Jasper National Parks
Great trip. Terence was a great driver and tour guide. Accommodation was good.
What our customers ask about Canada Guided Tours & Trips
When is the best time to take a fully guided tour in Canada?
The prime months for Canadian guided tours span June through September when temperatures are most agreeable. The Canadian Rockies reach their peak in July and August bringing pleasant daytime temperatures and fields of mountain wildflowers. September offers a quieter experience with rich fall colors while winter tours (December-March) focus on snow-covered landscapes and aurora viewing opportunities. A TourRadar traveler recommended: "We went in September and it was perfect -ff and Jasper and far fewer tourists than peak summer."
What are the main benefits of taking a fully guided tour in Canada?
Guided tours in Canada take care of the complex logistics while providing local expertise across destinations like Banff Jasper and the Canadian Rockies. A professional guide manages all travel details from transport to bookings at properties like the Whistlers Inn in Jasper or Banff Aspen Lodge. They also arrange activities from glacier excursions to wildlife spotting. As one TourRadar traveler noted: "The Canadian Rockies tour was amazing! Our guide was friendly informative and had a great personality. We saw all the big sites and the team was so accommodating when things didn't work out due to weather."
How far in advance should I book a fully guided tour in Canada?
The most sought-after tours particularly during summer months (June-August) reach capacity 6-12 months before departure. Rocky Mountaineer journeys through the Canadian Rockies typically fill a full year ahead while winter tours offer more flexibility for last-minute bookings. A TourRadar traveler suggested: "Book at least 6 months ahead for summer tours to get your preferred dates and accommodations especially in popular areas like Banff and Jasper."
What's typically included in accommodation on fully guided Canada tours?
Tours generally feature stays at upscale hotels and lodges in central locations. Guests might find themselves at the grand Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel nicknamed the "Castle in the Rockies" or wake up to lake views at the Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise. A TourRadar traveler noted: "The hotels were all excellent quality and perfectly located - from the Sutton Place in Revelstoke to being right on Banff Avenue allowing easy access to restaurants and shops."
What should I pack for a fully guided tour in Canada?
Mountain weather calls for versatile clothing layers including a waterproof jacket warm fleece comfortable walking shoes and smart casual attire for evenings at premium hotels. One TourRadar traveler advised: "Even in summer bring warm clothes for the Columbia Icefield and early mornings at Lake Louise plus nice outfits for dinners at the Banff Springs Hotel." Photography equipment proves essential for documenting the landscapes at spots like Moraine Lake and the Icefields Parkway.
How much does a typical fully guided tour in Canada cost?
Tour costs range widely based on duration included features and travel style. Daily rates typically fall between $250-500 USD. A week-long Trafalgar Rockies expedition averages $492 USD per day covering hotels transport and most meals while an 8-day G Adventures journey runs about $375 USD daily. One TourRadar reviewer mentioned: "While not cheap the value was excellent considering the quality of hotels like the Westin Calgary and the included experiences."
