    Canadien Rockies
    Larry V.

    We had an absolutely terrific September Caravan tour of the Canadian Rockies + Glacier National Park in Montana. July wildfires destroyed our schedule leg to Jasper, but Caravan found us some excellent accommodations and activities in and around Canmore. Our tour guide, Amy and our Driver, Dave were wonderful. The guides can make the difference and they sure did.

    First time tour with Caravan and was not disappointed. After waiting 3 years for our tour to get available post COVID it was great to finally get on the road. The tour hit a lot of the highlights through the canyons and parks and was as enjoyable and relaxing as a tour could be. 2 nights per hotel stay gave us time to explore on our own and chose our meals at our times. We only had 27 people on the tour so the bus was wide open and all the on/off/luggage/"trading post" breaks moved quickly due to the smaller group. A big shout out to our guide Captain Kirk who filled us in with great info on upcoming stops as well as knowing when to give us quiet time with either a movie or music on the bus. His humor, sense of adventure and openness made him fit in with our active and fun group and saying goodbye was difficult for all of us. Will definitely consider a tour with this company again.

    About what time of day does the tour bus leave each day?

    We went with caravan to the Canadian Rockies last summer and to Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons this summer. Some mornings, we got up early and left our luggage outside our room before breakfast and other mornings were more leisurely. Our days… Read more

    Is it rare to have solo guests?

    Singles on the tours are very common---young and older, both men and women...you may get a seat mate on the bus, but may be seated alone if space permits. Rooms for solo travelers were arranged at hotels and you were not expected to room with a… Read more

    Just wondering how many people are on the bus? Is it really crowded?

    We had about 35 people on our bus. They normally are not filled to capacity. Hope this helps. Happy travels.

Kevin did not suggest other policies. I'm not sure if they make money by selling this specific policy. I asked Kevin to look into this, but I received no fair response. In fact he failed to respond to some emails. We were in Europe and no way to come home without medical transportation, which the insurance denied the claim. The cruise ship he recommended in my opinion is an older boat. Keven holds himself out as an expert in this area and said that he received certain awards.

However, what I found so helpful about working with Rob and David was that they took the time to really ask me what I was looking for in terms of activities, destinations, budgets, etc. They know me as a friend, but they interviewed me for details as they would every customer. That led to some very specific and expert advice just for me. My partner and I have booked 3 cruises with Cruise Holidays based on their helpful personalization. Because they explore many cruise destinations first hand, they have insider knowledge of what specific cruiselines and destinations offer. This is invaluable, and not to be found in any tour guide! And finally, their customer service expertise extended beyond the planning and purchase of the cruise itself. They were very helpful in answering questions about foreign destination currency and cultures, helping us plan details we'd never get from a guidebook. I also know they went out of their way to help friends of mine who had trouble with their luggage on flights not purchased through Cruise Holidays. The help from Cruise Holidays saved their vacation from disaster.

    As a preface, this company is currently under investigation by the Better Business Bureau, the…read moreFederal Trade Commission, the Consumer Protection Division of the Illinois Attorney General's office, the Consumer Resource Center of Washington State, and several financial and private institutions. I will update this review accordingly, if that changes. But here's why: The TLDR: A) the company does not responsibly or efficiently apply the money you send them toward your accommodations, B) they engage in deceptive billing practices, C) they ignore clearly specified preferences when booking additional accommodations/excursions, and D) when questioned about any of the aforementioned aspects, they delay response or cease responding altogether. Here is my point-by-point experience with Magical Mystery Tours (MMM) and their deceptive practices. 1. The company did not responsibly apply our money towards hotel/flight accommodations. We booked travel from December 10-19 of 2004 and the company later revealed, under pressure, that they did not book ANYTHING until early December. In the best case scenario, flight and hotel were booked TEN DAYS before our trip began. In no scenario could this have been the cheapest timeframe. (see picture 1, a segment of an email from MMM). 2. During the trip, our preferences were not adhered to. We informed MMM that we were vegan during our preliminary correspondence. They proceeded to book us reservations at several restaurants with no non-meat (and certainly no non-dairy) options on the menu. Despite this, we showed up, trusting MMM had made some sort of arrangement. The restaurants in question said they were informed of no such thing. The same story played out with 3 other excursions we had them schedule that included meals. 3. When we returned and asked for a breakdown of costs, MMM included a Paypal Transaction Fee of over 3% of the total vacation cost. It is explicitly stated in the Paypal User Agreement that merchants may not pass on the merchant fee to the seller. They must have known this, but were counting on me not knowing. Ultimately, they did refund the fee, but only after being pressed--partly why I continued to distrust and investigate the rest of the bill. 4. When we requested original receipts, our request was denied, despite the their advertising otherwise (see picture 2, a screenshot of their website BEFORE we requested original receipts). After requesting this, they promptly changed the wording in an attempt to hide their billing (see picture 3, a screenshot of their website AFTER requesting original receipts). 5. After sending the before/after screenshots of the changes to their website, and applying additional pressure, they sent undated and unverifiable screenshots of receipts, refusing to send anything else. 6. There were several discrepancies in the final total trip cost relating to the percentage taken as an MMM "fee"--which were substantial. After several follow-up emails were sent regarding this, MMM ceased communications. (Note: the amount in dispute was less than $200. Imagine if you were challenging more than that...) The takeaway: Be careful when dealing with MMM. Do not pay a "transaction fee." Do not book unless promised original, dated receipts beforehand. Demand proof that your travel preferences will be adhered to. Double-check the math of your bill afterwards. My advice: Do not book with MMM. There are many other companies offering this service without deceptive practices: Pack up + Go, The Vacation Hunt, Black Tomato, Rustic Pathways Mystery Trips, Blind Experiences, Guess Where Trips, etc...

    We had the absolute best surprise trip experience with Katie and MMT! We had done a surprise trip…read morewith another travel agency previously, and MMT was above and beyond more exceptional in every way. A few highlights: 1. I appreciate the thoroughness of the survey. Based on the questions, you can tell that MMT puts a lot of thought into the nuances of the experience for their customers. 2. I LOVE the customizability, especially with the budget. We weren't sure what our budget should be. Katie was immediately transparent on the minimum budget MMT would recommend in order to provide the experience we were looking for. We ended up giving a larger budget than MMT's minimum recommendation and were issued a refund of unused funds at the end. 3. Katie was timely and thorough in her responses to all of our questions throughout the process. She was sure to double check every detail before finalizing anything. 4. The excursions planned for us were INCREDIBLE and aligned with our survey exactly. It was the perfect combination of activity and downtime that we requested. I cannot wait to book our next surprise trip with MMT!
