"Overall: Overall, the Canadian Rockies are spectacular. All of the people in our group were fun to be with, and we made some great friends. Our tour guide was knowledgeable, patient, and flexible given the physical abilities (or inabilities) of the members of the group and tried to tailor the tour to accommodate as many people in the activities as possible. My issue was with Intrepid's misrepresentation of the physical activity level rating, the inaccurate pricing of optional activities, the required travel insurance policy, the sub-par lodging, and the labeling of the trip as a Northern Lights trip when there were only 2 nights out of 10 listed in the itinerary that gave us an opportunity to see them. Lodging: The hotels were sub-par. The Metterra in Edmonton didn’t have a functioning hair dryer and the TV didn’t work (during the SuperBowl) The Holiday Inn Express in Slave Lake didn't have a functioning fireplace in the lobby, where we gathered to eat dinner. It was cold as it was adjacent to the front doors the were constantly opening and closing. The TV in the breakfast room and where we met to eat take out dinner was on a political station and the volume was loud. The person working at the front desk stated that the remote control had been stolen, so we couldn't turn it off or adjust the volume. The Lake Louise Inn had disgusting carpeting that we didn’t even want to walk on with bare feet. The Rundlestone Lodge in Banff did not have any food or drink options in the hotel and we had to walk to another hotel to get our included breakfast. The breakfast at that hotel was also sub-par. The eggs were powdered eggs. The bread, bagels, and pastries were all stale and hard. Everyone had a room where the window looked DIRECTLY into the pool area. It was noisy with kids screaming at the pool. One of the members of our group had to pay to upgrade her room, so she wouldn't have to hear the noise from the pool area until 10:30 PM. Intrepid Activity Level rating: Intrepid listed this physical activity level rating as a 2/5, which is one step above sunbathing. It said that the activities were easy and no prior physical fitness was necessary to do most of the activities. First, many of the activities were done at higher altitudes than most were accustomed to, which makes any activity more challenging. Second, walking on ice, hiking on steep mountain trails, and snowshoeing in deep snow require a much higher level of fitness than casual walking. Itinerary: The itinerary was labeled a Canadian Rockies and Northern Lights tour. There were only 2 nights listed on the itinerary (in Slave Lake) that there was even an opportunity to go out to see them. The northern lights and weather conditions are unpredictable, so it should not be listed as a “northern lights tour” unless there would be an opportunity to see them every night. The tour guide had drive time restrictions and couldn’t take us out every night to remote areas to get the chance to see the northern lights. On an Iceland tour, we had our lodging (with restaurant and bar) in remote areas with minimal light pollution, so I could set my alarm a few times throughout the night to go outside to see if the lights were visible. The quality of northern lights can change on an hourly basis and it is not reasonable to expect to stay outside in a remote area without light pollution all night to see them. All the hotels we stayed at had significant light pollution preventing us from going outside the hotel to check the quality of the northern lights. Don’t label it a northern lights tour. It was a Canadian Rockies tour. Slave Lake activities: The ice fishing listed as a possible alternate activity was never discussed. No one said the lakes were safe or not safe for fishing. It was not discussed as an option at all. Snowshoeing was also listed as an activity at this location, but was not given as an option. Jasper activities: Walking on ice in the Maligne Canyon was challenging and risky for people who aren’t physically fit. There were a few people that had to skip the grotto for fear of injuring themselves by going further. Similarly, on the drive along the Icefields Parkway, none of us were able to hike all the way to the toe of Athabasca Glacier due to the level of fitness required. Lake Louise activites: Difficulties with the level of fitness required also impacted the hike at Johnston Canyon. Some people struggled but managed to make it to the lower bridge, but many could not go further due to the fitness level needed to hike up the steep trails. Snowshoeing was offered as an option and one group member had to insist to go snowshoeing here, since the terrain was flat. Otherwise, it was also not included as an option. Banff activities: This was the snowshoe hike at Sunshine Mountain. Despite it being listed as an option twice before on the itinerary, this was the first day we went as a group. It was challenging to say the least. Half of the group were not able to participate due to the level of fitness required that was misrepresented in the tour description rating. The next day the grotto ice walk was listed, but not offered and instead we went on a hike. Optional Activities: There was a SIGNIFICANT discrepancy of the prices listed for the optional activities on the tour description and the actual prices. It seems the prices listed by Intrepid were pre-COVID prices and had never been updated. I understand if there would be a minor difference in prices, but they were 40-70% higher than Intrepid quoted. Here are examples of the activity and price per person. Dogsledding (an anticipated highlight of the trip, which we ended up not going on due to price): Intrepid price $200 CAD and actual price was $315CAD. Lake Louise Sleigh ride: Intrepid price $37CAD and actual price was $52CAD Lake Louise Ice Skating including hockey stick: Intrepid price $20CAD and actual price was $29CAD Banff Hot Springs: Intrepid price $8CAD and actual price was $17.50CAD Travel Insurance: I have the AmEx Platinum card that has very good travel insurance coverage. Intrepid forced me to buy a separate policy stating that I needed a “policy number” and not just claims made coverage that my credit card supplies. I had to pay an extra $174USD to get travel insurance when my credit card already covers travel insurance. Then I found that one of the guests in our group used her credit card policy and did not require a separate travel insurance policy to go on this trip. That was infuriating! White Mountain Adventures: White Mountain Adventures was coordinating this trip and I felt they were at a disadvantage to plan a trip when the Intrepid itinerary and physical activity level was misrepresented prior to the trip. Scott, our tour guide, was very kind, knowledgeable, patient, accommodating, and flexible to try to meet the expectations and physical abilities of those on the tour.

"Discover Canada hosted an incredible Christmas trip into the Rockies. Our guide, Ryan, was knowledgeable, amusing, and brought amazing energy to the trip. The bus was clean and new and our accommodations each night were also clean and suitable. The trip involves a lot of of driving and bus time, but entirely worth it. I look forward to completing another trip with Discover Canada again in the future.

Discover West Coast Canada tours for every budget
Our camping tours really connect you with Canada's wilderness at a great price point. These 7-14 day tours provide the camping gear - you just need your sleeping bag. Our customers love getting involved with camp setup near some incredible lakes and mountain spots. You'll paddle canoes at Clearwater Lake, hike up to Lake Agnes Tea House and explore through Wells Gray Provincial Park. Several routes stop in Tofino where you can join zodiac boat trips to spot whales. What works well is how you can join the planned activities or take time to discover mountain towns independently.
When you go upscale in the Canadian Rockies, you'll stay at remarkable mountain lodges and heritage hotels. The Fairmont properties stand out - from Banff Springs' castle-like presence to the waterfront setting of Chateau Lake Louise. These tours include special access experiences: early morning walks on Athabasca Glacier before other visitors arrive and private evening visits to the Glacier Skywalk. Many tours feature chef-prepared meals with wine pairings and first-class seats on the Rocky Mountaineer train. Our travelers consistently praise Glacier View Lodge, Canada's only glacier-view resort, for its sweeping mountain views and also its cozy library lounge.

Demographics
Solo travelers connect deeply with the Canadian Rockies through our camping-based adventures. These tours really work well for meeting people while keeping costs down through shared camp duties and food kitties. You'll get into hiking around Lake Louise, paddling canoes at Wells Gray and joining optional activities like white-water rafting on Kicking Horse River. Our travelers consistently praise how the small groups let them get to know everyone while still having space to do their own thing. The tour leaders make a huge difference - Michelle and Will come up highly rated for their deep knowledge of hidden spots and ability to create a fun group atmosphere.
Young adults gravitate toward our active Rocky Mountain experiences that mix outdoor adventures with social time. These tours include camping near Jasper National Park, hiking to the Lake Agnes Tea House and mountain biking in the Valley of Five Lakes. You can challenge yourself with optional glacier hikes on Athabasca or go rafting near Golden. What works particularly well is the flexibility - you might join the group for sunrise photos at Pyramid Lake or head off to explore Banff's restaurants and bars. Our customers often mention how the 18-35 age focus creates natural friendships through shared experiences like evening campfires and cooking together.
Our senior travelers appreciate the well-paced tours that combine comfort with Canadian Rockies highlights. These routes include time at Lake Louise, guided walks through Maligne Canyon and scenic drives along the Icefields Parkway. You'll stay in quality hotels right in town centers, making it easy to explore places like Banff Avenue in your free time. The tours build in flexibility - you might join a guided walk to Bow Falls, take the Banff Gondola for mountain views or simply relax at local cafes.
