What is the best time for viewing fall foliage during the tour?

The best time for viewing peak fall foliage is typically at the end of September and the beginning of October, although this can vary annually based on weather conditions.

Does the tour include airport transfers in North America?

We no longer offer airport transfers in North America; it is recommended to use a taxi or a service like Uber for your transportation needs from the airport.

Does this tour include airport transfers?

This tour does not provide arrival and departure transfers. There will be instructions in the travel packet to get you to the start hotel.

I wanted to inquire about the "Eastern US & Canada Grand Vacation" tour for a family trip. I want to know if the current price is the lowest available offer for a group of 8 adults and 2 children. Could you provide information about accommodations and hotels during the trip? What are the transportation arrangements - does it include coach/bus travel or train journeys? We have a 1 and a 3-year-old child, so could you clarify if there is a fee for children of this age?

Unfortunately, we have a minimum age requirement of 5 years old for this tour. Your 1-year-old and 3-year-old children would not be eligible to join the tour.

Do you assist in obtaining visas for Canada?

We do not directly assist with the visa application process. However, we recommend using a professional visa service like Generation Visa Services, which can guide you through the process once you have secured your booking.

How are payments handled for the tour?

Payments can be made through Tourradar, and a deposit of $250, which is non-refundable, is required at the time of booking.

Does the Eastern US Canada Grand Vacation trip include seeing the Rocky Mountains?

This tour does not feature the Rocky Mountains. You may be interested in our other tours of western Canada, for example The Canadian Rockies (tour code 8900).

Do you have an office ion the Philippines? do you assist in getting Canadian visa?

We do not have an office in the Philippines. Non-US citizens may require a single or multi-entry visa. A visa service such as Generation Visa Services (GenVisa) may be able to assist you with this process.

Do I have to pay a supplement to have single rooms on my own ? If yes, how much?

I have updated pricing here to include GST/HST taxes and the single supplement.

Want to ask details about hotels and food you offer for the tour

Hotels are not confirmed until about 30 days prior to departure. What hotel details and food details are you looking for?
