Absolutely the best of Canada 1 , QLD, Australia, May 2016
Just home from another trip of a lifetime. This time we travelled across Canada on the Complete Canada tour with Travelmarvel. The tour guides and bus drivers were excellent and full of fun and knowledge. All the accommodation was of a very high standard with a number of 2 night stays which keeps the pace about right. The Rocky Mountaineer silver ...read more leaf service team made us feel like royalty and the food was delish! Everywhere we went the scenery was picture postcard perfect. The last 7 days cruising the inside passage was the perfect ending to a fantastic trip! Thanks Yvonne for the wonderful service answering all my questions and helping us select the perfect tour and thanks APT for an excellently organised trouble free tour!
