Our first trip to Canada started in Toronto and Muskoka before flying to Calgary and by car on to Banff and Jasper where we joined the Rocky Mountaineer to Vancouver,and then Vancouver Island.We hugely valued the efficient organisation by Laura Thomson who was an excellent advisor on the itinerary and the activities we would be likely to enjoy.In all,we stayed in 6 different hotels,and had connections by air,train,car bus and float plane.All went smoothly and added to our love of the Rockies,and indeed the Canadian hospitality we experienced.Thanks to Canada Travel Specialist and Laura.First class!

Natalie Stewart, organised a fantastic road trip around Canada for us, it was so good we are thinking of going again in 2017. If your thinking of hiring a camper in Canada then you are looking at he best company to travel with, every thing was arranged by Natalie, the Air Canada flight was very good. The hotel in Calgary was the International in the centre of the downtown region, the transfer from Airport to hotel with Jonview was on time. Canadreams were are very helpful team of people, we hired a Deluxe Camper, (DVC) for the two of us, we did find it a little on the small side and we will have a larger Super Van Conversion (SVC), for our next trip. If you are concerned about driving in Canada, don't be, there driving style is very relaxed the road layouts are simple you just need to think bit more for left turns. Four way stops are simple Just give way to the guy on the right or wait till they all look at you, then you know its your turn, as i said it very easy to drive in Alberta and British Columbia, don't worry about it, it's simple. We covered about 2000 Kms the fuel bill was only $412 around £238. We are already planning our next trip and it will be with Canada Travel Specialists, they have the experience to cater for all your needs. Thanks Steve & Violet Nightingale

We have just returned from our road trip in Canada and the USA. Having visited in the past this vacation was the best by far. Natali Stewart gave us the a comprehensive insite into not only places of interest, a must see if you like but also good quality hotels and restaurants that really complemented each day. We covered just over four thousand kelometers with a vehicle provided by Avis which I must say was first class. The Ford Explorer did not miss a beat. Vancouver island is the jewel of Canada that was until we visited Banff and beyond. It really does take your breath away. Try Lake Louis or Waterton Park you will see what I mean. On route we actually saw a real live Black Bear in the wild , didnt think that would ever happen!!! The US side of the border was every bit inviting Idaho and Montana are out of this world if a little warm at 43deg. Can't thank Natali enough for a wonderful holiday that we will not forget. We have said (god willing) will return in 2018. But really.....We cant wait!!!

I began to plan a 5 week trip across USA and Canada myself. It was complicated (not helped by all the different time zones!): Fly to Chicago then train travel East to West coast of America using overnight sleeper cabins, staying in 4 hotels in the USA before going to Vancouver, then Alaskan Cruise, Rocky Mountaineer to Jasper, then train back across to East coast of Canada stopping at Toronto and then down to New York for a couple of days before flying home. After a couple of weeks of stress I called Barrhead Travel and they put the itinerary together for me. I had a figure in my head I thought I could do it for. They came back with a quote which was slightly above that, but I went with it as it was worth someone else doing all the hard work. Now I have returned from my holiday I now know it was better than I could have done it for as the quality of hotels we got was much higher than I had in mind. Adla Toal emailed us a draft itinerary and we were able to change anything we wanted to with no problems at all. I made 2 minor changes (one a hotel where I preferred somewhere more 'in town' and another where I didn't want a cruise stateroom with a connecting door). Both changes were dealt with literally within an hour each time. 2 weeks before we left home we received a full pack of documentation which covered all flights, train travel, hotels, cruise, Rocky Mountaineer etc. The whole 5 weeks went like clockwork, all paperwork was spot on, all travel links planned meticulously well, all hotels superb. I cannot thank Adla enough for making this a trip of a lifetime. If I had continued to try and plan this myself I am sure we would have ended up sleeping on the floor at some train station somewhere! I urge any of you thinking about using Barrhead Travel to organize this for you to do it - don't hesitate. I will certainly be using them again.
