“Just want to thank Adla so much for all her hard work in organising our trip - both originally when first planned for 2020 and sticking with us throughout the 2 year pandemic-delay with all the re-booking and travel insurance refunds she had to do... and for honouring the prices originally agreed. Her choices of hotels and tour companies were faultless and every pick up and transfer sorted. We are so glad we chose Canada Travel Specialist to organise our trip as they certainly ARE specialists! It has been truly amazing and so much more than we could ever have imagined!! We travelled from The Rockies with brown bears, elk and bald eagles to Vancouver on the Rocky Mountaineer and then on to Victoria for humpback whales, seals and sea otters. Those amazing mountains, lakes, waterfalls and glaciers took our breath away, with additions like a sunset cruise, rafts, canoes and seaplane! Was it worth waiting for? You bet!!!”

“Had a wonderful holiday put together by Anne MacAldowie at Barrhead / Canada Travel Specialists. We flew to Vancouver then after three nights picked up a car and drove over a number of days to Calgary - through the Rockies. Highlights were taking a whale watching trip from Vancouver and seeing a Black Bear beside the road on the Icefield Highway. Once you get to Vancouver and the first couple of bookings have worked seamlessly, you have confidence that everything else is going to work and you start to relax and really enjoy everything. Thanks to Anne for all her hard work”

“Back from our holiday of a lifetime, cruising to Alaska from Vancouver, the Rocky Mountaineer, Banff and the Calgary Stampede. We had planned to do this trip in 2021 but when Covid struck we decided not to even book until things settled down. Then early in 2021 we saw what we thought looked like a good deal with the Canada Travel Specialists and decided to take the plunge and book for 2022. So pleased that we did as it all worked out brilliantly even though we still had to test before the cruise. Adla organised it so well for us, she was very friendly, knowledgeable and efficient both on the phone and email. Her suggestions were definitely worth listening to and taking on board, whilst she was also happy to listen to us and act on our preferences. Her communications containing links to each company for every part of the holiday, made it all so easy to know what to expect and what to do, with regard to check-ins, luggage, where to be and when etc. We would definitely recommend Canada Travel Specialists / Barrhead Travel.”

“The booking experience for our Canada trip was excellent. Sophie King listened carefully to our requirements and came up with an itinerary in a very short time. She was knowledgeable about the places we wished to visit and the accommodation. She was very responsive and nothing was too much trouble. We look forward to our holiday.”

“We had a great trip travelling in Canada, extremely well put together by Scott. We had a rough itinerary and Scott suggested a couple of changes, both of which added to our enjoyment of the trip. He organised all our accommodation, our car hire and an internal flight and everything worked like clockwork. A few additional extras were also thrown in, all of which we enjoyed. When questions occurred to us between booking and our travel, Scott was always very prompt and helpful in his replies. A very good service.”

“We have just returned from our long awaited holiday to Canada and Alaska. Originally booked for June 2020, we rearranged this with Canadian Travel Service/Barrhead 5 times. Throughout Michelle Holt (& indeed all we interacted with) were really helpful, always giving us great advice, very accommodating in making the changes we requested, and, importantly, giving us peace of mind. Excellent service, very much recommended.”

“Sophie King is an absolute star - we cannot praise her enough. Prior to the trip she had to re-arrange our flights twice including organising an extra night's hotel stay and transfer because the airline cancelled and then unfortunately we had to cut our trip short due to getting Covid. She cancelled our cruise and sorted everything out for us. This was all done helpfully and efficiently and with a smile in her voice. Would highly recommend using Barrhead Travel, Glasgow, and asking for Sophie!”

“Thank you Michelle Holt for our wonderful, long-awaited holiday across Western Canada. We had the absolute most fabulous time; it really was the holiday of a life-time! Despite the upheaval of Covid-19 and Lockdown where massive changes and adaptations occurred for individuals & businesses alike, we are so glad that we stuck with you and Barrhead Travel rather than cancelling and rebooking elsewhere. Our itinerary was action packed to say the least but it did not disappoint. All timings, pick-ups, drop-offs were executed with precision. The tour companies, the tour guides and the hotels (which were ideally located) were first rate. In particular, SunDog Tours and our guide Norm who took us from Lake Louise to Jasper. His knowledge of the local area, wildlife, history, flora and fauna was exceptional as was his sense of humour. He made each one of his guests feel like a VIP. If I had any complaints, niggles or things that didn't quite go according to plan then I'd mention it here but we were delighted with then entire holiday right from Heathrow to Calgary, on to Vancouver via The Rocky Mountains and back again. Everything went according to plan, the trips, the views and the wildlife sightings were far better than anticipated. Your help with our personalised itinerary, personal knowledge of the area, recommendations and happily putting up with all our little tweaks was exceptional, nothing was too much trouble. Thanks also for keeping us right throughout Lockdown and all the unprecedented delays that were out-with your control, you did us proud Michelle. Thankyou! We will live on our memories, stories and photographs for many years to come.”
