Our experience with Key West was excellent from when we first booked the 4 day Circle West tour to the end of the trip. Cristina, from the Key West office, was very helpful with any questions we had before we left home for our travels. Marlene was a great tour guide: friendly, helpful and extremely knowledgeable about the Rocky Mountains, giving us a lot of interesting information about the natural environment and the places we went to, and going out of her way to keep us entertained on the longer stretches of the trip. Our driver, Andrew, was a very safe, capable and professional driver who was a great wildlife spotter and also kept us entertained with his humorous stories. We had regular stops at places with great facilities, spent the nights in excellent hotels with generous breakfasts, and the bus was very comfortable and extremely clean. The scenery was outstanding and easy hikes were included. I highly recommend this tour and I would have no hesitation in booking with Key West again.

Our Rocky Mountains tour was one of the highlights of our trip. Tour Director Jeff Kurta was a pleasure to travel with - very informative with a pleasant personality. The places we visited were stunning and we have many photos to remind us of the beauty. The bus was very comfortable and the hotels four star. Would highly recommend this trip.

The tour was very well organized and a wonderful experience. What we saw during the trip was amazing. The information from the tour director was very interesting . He did speak in a calm way , which is very important when english is not your first language. Every day of our 5 day trip we enjoyed very much. The hotels were very nice and breakfast was great. Highlights of the beautiful tours were; Mt. Robson ;the Maligne Canyon Walk; Columbia Icefield; Johnston Canyon and Lake Louise.
