    Derek

    Asked on September 13th, 2026

    I see it for 2 very different prices. One is $4,039 The other is $2,795 I am a widow and on a very limited budget but dream of seeing Jasper and Bamf. I would be willing to book with the $2,795 price

    Price / Availability
    • CosmosOperator•Written September 2026

      The starting price of the tour would be $2795 however, when you select your actual date of travel it will then factor in the single supplement charge and the taxes which brings it to the higher price you are seeing.

    Sonia

    Asked on January 11th, 2026

    Please describe the bus used, particularly for visibility of the exterior surroundings. Please mention the bus departure times typical from each location.

    Transport
    • CosmosOperator•Written January 2026

      All escorted vacations use a motorcoach on the touring portion of the itinerary. Motorcoaches have luxurious upholstery or leather, reclining seats, headrests, footrests, individual air vents, huge panoramic tinted windows which guarantee an unobstructed view, and a daily seat rotation that gives everyone a variety of views, there is simply no bad seat on any of our motorcoaches.

      Bus departure times for each location will be confirmed once on tour as they vary and are subject to change.

    • S

      Sonia

      Traveler•Written January 2026

      For this specific itinerary, I am interested in the motor coach departure times and hotel return times. The website shows cost as $3,920 pp, private room. Also shown is Additional Upfront as $688. Please explain if $3,920 is the "total" cost.

    • CosmosOperator•Written January 2026

      We are unable to provide the departure and return times as they are subject to change and you will be informed of those times on tour. The $2930 USD is the cost of the tour per person. Please be advised that is subject to change based on the local taxes. As for the additional upfront payment of $698 I have reached out to Tour Radar to confirm and they will be in contact with you shortly.

    • CosmosOperator•Written January 2026

      The surcharge you're seeing applies to an alternative version of the tour that includes a cruise, titled "Heart of the Canadian Rockies with Alaska Cruise", which is a 17-day adventure. For this option, the surcharge amounts to USD 688.00, and it represents Accommodation GST/HST, which is the Canadian sales tax applied to accommodation such as hotels, lodges, B&Bs, or short-term rentals.

      For the tour "Heart of the Canadian Rockies" without the cruise, the Accommodation GST/HST is USD 92.74 per person. This means the total price is calculated as the sale price of USD 3,920.00 plus the USD 92.74 surcharge.

    Tour Details
    Travel Support
    • CosmosOperator•Written August 2025

      I spoke with our operations team, and they confirmed that the tour does not involve a lot of climbing. The tour director described it as moderately active, with most of the walking on flat ground. There may be some gentle inclines, but overall, it should be manageable if you are comfortable with flat walking. If you have any specific concerns or need additional accommodations, please let us know and we will do our best to assist you.
