          What a trip!! What a treat!
          Text: We had a truly amazing time on our trip with Key West Tours...from the get go Winnie did a super job to facilitate our curve ball of wishing to return on the Rockie Mountaineer train, and her work on our behalf made our six day experience so seamless and smooth. Our tour guide Bradley, and Brian the bus driver made a fantastic team who worked so easily together to make our trip just perfect. We saw so much, without feeling rushed, and got a super sense of all that the amazing territory has to offer. The depth and breadth of the knowledge that Bradley shared with us, the humour, pride and mellifluous tones with which it was delivered ensured a captured audience of very happy holiday makers! Getting that balance of keeping people informed and allowing time to simply soak up the beauty is not easily done, but we were so lucky to have had such a professional and quality guide, a safe driver, and a very friendly yet disparate group, that I feel we had the perfect combo.... Thank you so much to all the team in Key West for helping to make our trip such a memorable one ...Keep up the great work.... Mary, Margaret & Bernadette Sweeney

          We can highly recommend the Canadian Rockies tour with Key West Travel. We had an incredible experience- thank you !
          We had a fantastic tour to the Canadian Rockies. Winnie’s communication prior to the tour was outstanding. She answered all my many questions. The tour was amazing. Brad was a fantastic tour guide with a wealth of information. Brian was an excellent and safe driver. They stopped at many sights for photo opportunities which was great. The gondola and Icefield excursions were a must. We saw so many fantastic sights that are now etched in our minds. The hotels/accommodation were all quality and included in the price of the tour. We can highly recommend this tour with Key West Travel.

          Great way to see the Rockies
          A good way to see the Rockies with limited time. A good tour means a good itinerary and a good tour director. Bradley the tour director was really great. Knowledgeable about the area and passionate about his job. All in all a great experience.

          Great positive experience!
          The tour by Key West was so well organized and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. The places we've seen were outstanding and the views and sights breathtaking. Thanks to Brad, tour guide, and Ben, bus driver, for the knowledge shared, stories and humor. The entire trip was relaxed, not rushed and very enjoyable. Our accommodations were high standard and the group was fun. Thank you so much, Key West!

          Key West Travels and Tours - Excellent service
          We are from Australia and needed to book some tours while in Vancouver. Key west was found by accident. I have the greatest admiration and regards as to the way they handled our requests and booking. Although there were many changes to the itinerary which was beyond their control Winnie our key person who corresponded with us always kept us informed by email and inspite of the time differences, called us at mutually convenient times. Highly recommend the team. Once we were in Vancouver they had all the required information printed out and in fact a team member took us along to the Registration place for there Rocky Mountaineer.

          A bucket list ticked off! Many photos of wonderful scenery of the Canadian Rockies.
          Original itinerary booked with Key West Travel was Grand Circle Vancouver including Rocky Mountaineer from Vancouver to Jasper, however due to the damaging forest fire the train trip was altered to Vancouver to Banff. With the possibility that our bucket list to travel on the well known Rocky Mountaineer being cancelled, with the efficient and cooperation between Key West Travel team ( especially Winnie ) and Rocky Mountaineer office we were still able to experience the Rocky train trip, by travelling to Banff. At Banff joined the Key West Travel coach , Jeff was very knowledgeable and interactive with the tour group which made the coach trip from Banff to Vancouver very enjoyable . Took many photos of Rivers, Snow capped maintains and Lakes . Many thanks to the Key West Travel & Tours team to make this possible, will recommend Tour company to our family and friends.

          Thoroughly enjoyable
          Everything went very smoothly. We were picked up from our hotel in Calgary and taken to Jasper, rest and comfort stops were regular and spaced out well. We met the rest of the tour at breakfast in Jasper, also our tour director Jeff Kurta and our driver Paul. They made sure we were able to see all that had been promised and had time to see everything at each stop. They were friendly and knowledgeable and made our first ever trip to Canada thoroughly enjoyable. Would definitely use again and would recommend.

        We enjoyed this tour very much. Jeff the guide and Andrew the driver were great guys and very organised and knowledgeable and made everyone welcome. The bus pick up in Calgary is a transfer to Jasper by another company and we passed a lot of the places we would return to on the bus trip but it was actually nice to see them twice. The driver of this bus also gave a bit of commentary too.
        We done the Banff gondola and the Columbia ice fields as extra excursions and it was well worth paying the extra to do them. The places we visited were amazing and we packed a lot in on the tour. There are plenty stops and places to buy snacks and drinks but they could be expensive and with limited choices at times. With hindsight we should have taken food and drink with us but there's not a lot of free time to get to a supermarket.
        The hotel in Jasper was basic and a bit noisy but we were only there 1 night.
        The Aspen Lodge in Banff was clean, comfortable and of a higher standard than we were expecting. Lovely breakfast too.
        A full on few days but we saw so much and I would definitely recommend this tour.
        A mention also to the office staff, especially Christina, for good communication and dealing with queries promptly. We passed the office when we were in Vancouver and almost went in to say hello.

        Our tour with KeyWest travel was fabulous! We were transferred by comfortable coach from Calgary to Jasper by a friendly driver on Brewster Pursuit Express. We met our tour the following morning. Our tour guide Jeff, was wonderful. He had so much interesting information about the area and you could tell he loved the Canadian Rockies. Our driver Brian, was a wonder. Big drives and he was focussed and friendly.
        Would not hesitate to recommend KeyWest Tours to explore the extraordinarily beautiful Canadian Rockies.

        The Western Classic tour from Calgary to Vancouver really summarizes the Rockies especially if you have a tight schedule. The Magnificence of the landscape will be etched in our memories for ever.
        I would recommend this trip to anyone who has only 3 days to spare. A bucket list destination par excellence.

        This was the trip of a lifetime.
        The motor coach portion of the tour was guided by tour director Jeff Kurta.
        He is is very knowledgeable and has a pleasent personality. Thanks to him, we’ve learned a lot about the places that we visited.
        The train portion of the Rocky Mountaineer tour was also very interesting and pleasent. The staff on the train (carriage # B05) was very helpful.
        As for the views and the landscapes that we went by, they’re stunning.
        We highly recommend this tour.

        I’d like to start by saying that this was the trip of my life.
        The guide, Jeff, was so fascinating and full of knowledge. He was well organized, responsible, and very caring for all the members of the group.
        Wayne, the bus driver, was super pleasant and polite. On top of his great and cautious driving he was also a delight to be around.
        Excellent lodging choices by the company at the best locations.
        To sum up, I had an amazing experience with Key West Travel. They provided everything needed to create the trip of a life time. Without a doubt it was worth every penny. Thank you Key West Travel.

        I have given the Rocky Mountain Classic tour five stars even though the start of our tour was horrendous! We chose the Calgary to Vancouver one way tour although in hindsight we would definitely have chosen the round trip.
        The first day of the trip was definitely not a tour! We were collected in Calgary at 11:00 by Brewster’s bus company, our first stop after 10 minutes was the airport where we had time to buy a coffee to take on the bus. We then criss crossed the Rockies stopping many times to pick up and drop off people including stops at Banff, Lake Louise and finally Jasper. Our only stop after the airport was at 6:15 pm for 15 minutes! We were not prepared for the journey and had not brought food or drinks so by this time we were really hungry! The 15 minutes was just enough time to buy a cup of chili to eat on the coach, which was a relief as we did not reach our hotel until 8:30 pm!
        I believe that we should have been warned that the journey would be 9 hours 30 minutes with only one 15 minute stop, we could have taken drinks and sandwiches with us and been more comfortable.
        Once we joined the actual tour in Jasper the following morning it was amazing, although the people who joined at Vancouver were on the tour from the start of their journey. Brad our tour guide was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful, Bruce the driver was also excellent and a fantastic driver.
        The last three days of the tour was a wonderful experience, we were taken to many amazing places and the scenery throughout was spectacular. The timings of the stops were great and we had enough time at all the stops. Extra activities offered included the Banff gondola and the Columbia Ice-field Explorer.
        The final day, even though it was as long a drive as our first day was completely different! We had several stops including lunch and a visit to the Three Valley Ghost Town which was a very interesting final activity.
        I would recommend the tour but if you do choose a one way trip, find out if you will be with the actual tour or Brewster’s so that you can be more prepared than us!
        Personally I believe that not enough bookings were taken for the Calgary departure and that two tours were combined so maybe other people may have a very different first day experience.
        The booking and communication with Key West was really good apart from the fact that we were unprepared for day 1 of the tour!
        Great way to see the Canadian Rockies including 2 Black bears and a Grizzly!

        *Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.
