The Rockies Summer Premium tour is not an overly walking heavy tour. If travellers are interested in completing local hikes and walking trails, they are free to do so, however, there is also the opportunity to relax at restaurants and parks during each stop. Additionally, if you are interested, there is the option to book add-on activities, however, they are not required.

Can you give a price of $1583 as advertised? You just raised the price to $1961.

For our Rockies Summer Premium tours, the price can vary depending on which accommodation type is selected. Currently our price for a single private room is $3,179 CAD. For a quad room, the price drops to $2,129 CAD per person.

Approximately how many tourists join this type of tours?

Typically, our Rockies Premium tour has around 40 travellers, with 40 being the maximum.

Where exactly is the meeting place on start day (Day 1)? What time is the approximate arrival back to Vancouver on the last day?

For all of our tours, we meet right outside Canada Place, located downtown Vancouver. The exact location is 999 Canada Place, Vancouver, BC. The approximate arrival back to Vancouver on the last day of the tour is 7:30pm, however, that time could change slightly due to unforeseen circumstances.

Will there be a lot of walking?

This tour typically does not involve a lot of walking, but it can also depend on your personal preference. During free time, you are welcome to walk around and explore, or simply sit down and relax, whichever you prefer.

I want to add Travel Insurance, either via XCover or Allianz, in case I need to 'Cancel for Any Reason', does XCover offer this option?

We understand you're curious about the possibility of cancelling your policy. While we would love to assist you directly, we're not insurance experts and can't advise on specific policy coverage. We recommend reviewing both policies and selecting the one that aligns best with your preferences.

We are on a cruise that finishes in Vancouver on 10 May 2027. The ship docks at 7am. We are interested in your 5 day Rockies Premium Tour departing 10 May 2027 and being able to tag this on to the end of the cruise. What time does your tour depart and where do you depart from? Would you pick up from the cruise terminal?

The tour departs right outside the cruise terminal; however, the 8:30 am departure time makes it quite tight to join, and we generally wouldn't recommend it in this case.

Can you assist or recommend pre-and post-trip accommodations?

I would love to help and share some pre and post accommodation suggestions. Could you let me know what your preferred budget per night is. I am asking as I want to prevent recommending some hotels that might be way over your budget.

Could you please confirm availability for a group of 13 travelers in 5 double rooms and 1 triple room for the requested trip?

We are happy to confirm that we have the requested rooms (5 double rooms and 1 triple room) available.

I was just wondering if you happen to have a standby or cancellation list for tours that are sold out. Would it be possible to be added to a cancellation list and informed if there is space for a solo traveller on this tour.

Unfortunately, this date is fully sold out. However, we have another tour that may fit your timeline. This tour is called the Rockies Summer Classic Tour. It is a 4-day Tour and it departs on the 8th of July.

We had the best trip ever, Mitch and Eve were just so capable and good fun. We enjoyed staying at a variety of accommodation, and were treated to a bear viewing at Blue River. Eve made a our sting interesting by doing quizzes and playing music related to the places we were driving through. We were also lucky to travel with really nice people, we became a real little family. It was a big moment for us two Australians to step foot on the glacier. A very well organised tour, will recommend to friends 🌈💜Show more

Ryan did a fantastic job as our bus driver and tour guide, He shared his knowledge and stories about the places we visited. The lakes, waterfalls and rivers we visited in the Rocky mountains were amazing. We chose to do the glacier visit and helicopter ride as our optional extras. Both were amazing, the view of the Rocky Mountains from a helicopter was spectacular. We would definitely recommend Discover Canada Tours and Ryan as a tour guide/bus driverShow more

Ryan was a great guide. He took very good care of all passengers' needs. He had great stories and facts, and a very good sense of humor. Charles was an excellent driver. He stayed at the speed limit and made us all feel comfortable at all times. The itinerary was great with lots of stops to get food or use the restrooms. The bus was comfy but should definitely have drink holders and disposable trash cans. Wonderful hotels and yummy breakfasts each morning. Ryan was great at sticking to the schedule. I highly recommend this tour. Linda JohnsonShow more

  Traveler•Written May 2026
  I am located in New York State so even if the trip is taking place in Canada, I wouldn't be eligible? I would need to get travel insurance through a third-party?
- Discover Canada ToursOperator•Written May 2026
  We understand you would like to clarify the insurance requirements for your trip. In this case, the tour operator requires that any travel insurance be arranged independently, so you will indeed need to obtain insurance through a third-party provider of your choice. As TourRadar is a marketplace, we do not sell or manage insurance policies directly, but we strongly recommend choosing a policy that covers (at minimum) medical expenses, trip cancellation or interruption, and baggage/personal belongings for the full duration of your tour.

  Unfortunately, the hotel prices in Vancouver have risen significantly over the past few years, especially with FIFA taking place in the city this summer. Most hotels can cost over $600 per room per night.\u00a0
