    We really enjoyed this tour and it fulfilled most of what we hoped for in booking it. The itinerary was perfect, with one exception. For some reason we didn't see Lake Moraine in Banff National Park, although I have heard that Moraine is the most beautiful lake in the Canadian Rockies. Ferries between Vancouver and Victoria were fine, I liked the idea of a paid taxi voucher for transfer from airport to opening hotel for trip, and the bus taking us over the overland portion of the trip was comfortable. Very nice bus driver, Todd Butler. Accommodations were generally fine, though staff at our opening hotel at Vancouver were on strike and that presented a problem with basic services plus the unattractive necessity of crossing a picket line for the first time in my life. Meals at their best were fine, but only so so at their worst. Alas, many of our co-passengers (all of whom we liked) had done pre-tours (like cruise of Inside Passage) and apparently some brought some contagious colds and such. But trip's end we had both come down with the illness. Ron Ruby was the best. Was congenial, efficient problem-solver, gave nice and informative narratives about the sites we were visiting and seeing, showed some interesting relevant short videos, and built an espirit among the passengers with, among other things, a goofy Canadian song titled "Rocks and Trees-- and Water." We really liked and appreciated him. Fine trip overall.

    My wife and I had a fabulous tour to Banff Canada, with BEN HUTCHINSON as our tour guide. Ben's comments, songs, games and humor made our vacation the most memorable trip ever. Ben was so congenial and responsive to all our needs. Even when our tour bus had a flat tire, Ben developed a special walking tour to a water fall. This was a creative extemporaneous use of time well enjoyed.

    The trip to the Canadian Rockies was fabulous, and made so by our tour guide Ben Hutchinson. He has a vivacious personality, got to know everyone by name and their individual personalities, and "lit up" the bus. He had wonderful knowledge, and made the fun for our diverse group. If I had to rate him on a 1-10 score, He would get 10 plus plus. Glenda Schneiderman

    We had a wonderful tour of the Canadian Rockies. We could not have been more plesaes with the entire tour, but as anyone who has taken tours before knows, the guide is the key to the feel, tempo,and mood. I can honestly say that our guide, Ben Hutchinson was the MOST personable guide we have ever had on a tour. Most of all...he worked hard to make the whole day FUN, rather than sounding bored, or uninterested, or I done this so many times I can't possibly be enthusiastic. So...Trafalgar should make sure they never lose Ben to a competitor, or they will lose more than they can imagine.
