Andreea helped plan our trip for a six-day drive around Calgary, Lake Louise, Golden, Jasper, Clearwater, Salmon Arm, Revelstoke and Canmore. I am SO glad we went in mid October instead of earlier when it is so crazy busy with tourists. We lucked out and the weather was sunny and lovely each day and the traffic was MUCH less crowded then in the summer months. The color changes of the trees was beautiful. We really appreciated Andreea listening to what we needed and didn't need in accomodations and tours. My husband and I are 76 and 79, and having Kim Kim help plan out the hikes, tours, and places to stay and visit, made the trip so much more relaxing and enjoyable. The driving was great and Kim Kim has helped plan trips for us in the past and will again in the future. We don't travel with a group , just the two of us or maybe one other couple, and Kim Kim has always come through for us: Iceland, Arctic Circle in January in Norway (yep, January, and it was incredible), Quebec City/Montreal. Kim Kim LISTENS and plan the trips with us. Couldn't be happier!

Clearwater

This was the one place we stayed that included a free breakfast, and it was fantastic. It was nice to wake up and not have to drive or walk somewhere to eat breakfast or spend a lot of money eating at the hotel. The woman who manages the kitchen, Robin, was so friendly and helpful and the food was very tasty, well-made, and varied.

This place was very nice, the rooms were probably one of the nicest we stayed in on our trip, but I was surprised that the bathroom had tubs that were so high and with no safety grab bars, that my husband couldn't take a shower because he has had two hip replacements, and without at least some bar to grab on and with the very high sides to the tub, it would be dangerouse. The staff was very helpful .

They really go out of their way to help people. The woman at the front desk even ran a breakfast menu up to our room and someone else came up quickly to show me how to use a rather differnt coffee maker.

This is apparently Canada's highest suspension bridge, and walking across it was fun. This would be a place that kids would enjoy because they have a fun area where you can zip-line, climb and play in a creative playground-type area.

This was amazing! We have see a lot of glaciers, in Alaska, Austria, and a few other places, but this place really was impressive. Also, seeing the change over the years due to climate change was an eye opener.
