What people love about touring Canada And USA solo
- Patriot Trails
Well worth the money and the tour guides and the bus drivers are all very professional and very knowledgeable on subject matters in many different languages including English.
- Canadian Rockies Small Groups National Parks Camping Tour 7 days
This trip is excellent if you like nature and walking. Well organized small group tour works fine and its easy to move from place to place. We had a new minibus and trailer for luggage and for other equipment. We had picnic style lunches and dinners at campsites. Flexibility and teamwork needed with travel mates and the campsite facilities. Canada is beautiful and tour guides made this trip GREAT!
- Highlights of Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island
The late changes in hotels was a little disappointing. Tour guide was very nice but could improve upon communication of daily itineraries and interaction more with those touring.
