Many thanks, Adla, for organising a wonderful holiday with the Rocky Mountaineer. It was everything I hoped for....and more! The planning went like clockwork and the choice of excursions was spot on. Varied and enjoyable. On the train, the chaperones couldn't do enough to make us relax and soak up the experience. I travelled Silver Leaf which was great...spacious seats, great viewing facility and lovely food. Vancouver was a real eye opener, a vibrant city with lots to occupy visitors. The Hop on, hop off bus was very useful in getting a whole feel of the city. Jasper was a nice, quieter contrast and I loved the wildlife tour which enabled us to see bears, elk, moose, ospreys and bald eagles! Banff was also a lovely spot, with gondola to top of mountain and some great riverside walks. Overall a memorable experience. So relaxing and particularly nice to be pampered on the train. Particular thanks, Adla, for your planning and suggestions which really made my trip so successful. I am so grateful. All the best David Austin Ps I include a few photos which hopefully will give a feel of the holiday...
