    Hello Juanito, Thank you very much for travelling with us and for your review. Our customer's feedback is very valuable to us as we strive to optimize our tours continuously. Our Rockies Explorer Tour is our budget-friendly, "no-frills" tour option. One way for us to offer this tour at a low price to our travellers is by offering to-go breakfast in some destinations. To ensure all customers are aware of this, we have outlined this information in the trip itinerary. Our Rockies Classic and Premium Tours offer more comfort, and we avoid to-go breakfasts in those tours. These tours are prices higher than our Explorer Tour. We understand it is important to stay hydrated while travelling and tap water, unless specifically marked, is drinking water in Canada. We do not offer bottled water as a standard amenity on our tours as we are working hard on increasing our green initiatives and encourage all customers to use reusable water bottles while travelling. Rest assured that we will incorporate your feedback in our ongoing tour planning and customer satisfaction strategy. Kind regards, Katrin - West Trek Tours
