Western conquest

A honeymoon full of adventures!

(Translated by Google) The trip was fantastic, very well prepared; ! The Authentik Canada road book was perfect!!
A honeymoon full of adventures!

We did a long trip of 3 weeks, covering the Western and Eastern part of Canada, with transfer by plane from Calgary to Montreal. Montreal.
For my part (and how I imagined Canada), the western part, British Columbia, represents CANADA! Immense spaces, nature at its best; as far as the eye can see, wildlife is present everywhere, the Canadians, super welcoming, curious, with a fantastic sense of humor! We spent a few evenings in small villages, with the inhabitants, simply unforgettable!
Even the long stages, 5-6 hours by car, passed very quickly, there is always a place to stop, walk (more or less long) to access fantastic landscapes! The best, if you have time, and to choose the walks of more than 30 minutes, because there are a lot less people around. the arrival!!
The only difficult point for us Europeans (I am French and my wife Italian) was gastronomy". It is possible to eat very well, but for a higher budget, otherwise, even when shopping for hikes, it is not always easy to find enough to have a good picnic . But it was also part of the travel experience! We often ate well. in small villages, where there were small restaurants, or in the Ranches on the road!
Quebec is very beautiful too! Perhaps a little less spectacular than the other side... We were also very out of place there, the Quebecers are also very friendly ! We felt the European influence more! Montreal is a fabulous city, where you quickly feel good!
A plus for the Auberge la Fjordelaise, at; l'Anse-Saint-Jean, where the welcome was fantastic, we also ate very well there. ! The sugar tart for dessert, a treat!! We were lucky to fall along with a group of friends from Quebec who met there every year! And the atmosphere was very festive! As soon as you are able to make 2/3 jokes you are quickly integrated!!
The experience has been incredible, it took me at least 3 weeks to my return, to "recover" from all these positive emotions, these landscapes, this nature and these inhabitants!
For sure, we will be back!! [...]

Completely successful trip

(Translated by Google) We are very pleased with our vacation in Western Canada. Everything went wonderfully well.

Everything was perfect

(Translated by Google) Everything was perfect. this is the first time that an agency has "pampered" us at; this point.
Their availability, the clarity and the many explanations of the road book without forgetting its neat presentation.
I recommend and would recommend their services

Authentik Canada made it easy for us to life

(Translated by Google) Very nice trip having responded to my expectations. Wonderful landscapes. At the organizational level, the road-book has been very valuable. It allowed me to keep my diary from day to day. Very good advice on sites to visit. see and about restaurants. We tested very good restaurants indicated in the booklet (but the budget was somewhat exceeded!!!). Very warm welcome in the hotels as well as in the restaurants or shops. For hotels not all at equality. Not a good memory of the one in Revelstoke located near the railway; large number of freight trains passing through (minimum 200 wagons). A + for the Clearwater Springs Ranch. Too bad I wasn't notified. that he made guest tables which would have avoided us; to drive 1 hour there and back for dinner... Pick up and return of the rental car without any problems. Thanks for coming back. the addresses in the GPS. Pleasant outward and return flights on Air Transat. We were placed (at my request) on the last two seats at the end of the plane. For meals when they arrived at our level there was no longer any choice (vegetarian sandwich for example not very good). We reported to them. The weather has been very pleasant. A little more time on Vancouver would have been nice. good. Overall we are satisfied and thank you. Cordially [...]

The nature at; the pure state

(Translated by Google) To recommend without hesitation. The +: GPS, choice of hotels, proposed circuit;

Superb trip, beautiful lands

(Translated by Google) We are very happy with the service received, the ease of to modify the route and the hotels offered (all very good) as well as pre-programmed GPS; Free. The proposed route is ideal for discovering British Columbia and the parks of Alberta, but leaves little time for hiking. Next time ...
Wells-Gray Park has been a real and magnificent discovery, excellent advice to include it in the route. We particularly liked the detour to; Telegraph Cove, the whale watching outing has been sensational. Worth extending the route by two days, despite the journeys (the road is very beautiful). Whistler has been the biggest disappointment of the trip, really too touristy. [...]

Beautiful "nature" trip in western Canada

(Translated by Google) intensive trip: 9 hotels and 2500km. Circuit from Vancouver to; Calgary. A journey close to nature and exotic, the beauty of Canadian landscapes were there. At the end of the route at From Lake Louise and Banff, many tourists, crowded parks, impossibility of to visit certain sites in the afternoon. Plan visits or hikes in the morning. We enjoyed it very much. Vancouver Island, it deserves to be looked at longer. It is better to plan reservations for bear or killer whale excursions and even on the maligne lake at the end of the day. advance. No problem encountered. on the organization of the trip by Authentik Canada. [...]

Perfect except information availability

(Translated by Google) Overall excellent! only downside on the availability of establishments which are confirmed by telephone and then several weeks later not available. Need to have a system to real time day

Conquered by the West

(Translated by Google) We have been enchanted by the road trip "Conquest of the West" which every day made us discover the beauty of the cities and landscapes crossed. The walking options at; feet or at there are many bikes to discover parks, forests, lakes and fantastic waterfalls. Everything is perfectly indicated; and signposted. Do not hesitate to stop en route at many viewpoints. There is always something to do; admire. Regarding hotels, the "economic" category offers good quality. of comfort well above a simple motel. On the whole, the welcome is attentive, the rooms are clean and well equipped (kitchenette). We would like to thank Stéphanie, our advisor, for her wise advice during the preparation of the trip and her attention during the trip. Upon our arrival at Clearwater, major forest fires were raging in the area. Before even contacting her, Stéphanie had sent us a message. an email to confirm that the hotel was waiting for us. We have also studied with her our tour options since Wells Gray Nature Park was closed. as a precaution. A big thank-you. Authentik is an efficient and transparent agency. We've had no problems with bookings, and there's no secrecy around the various activity providers, which helps verify that Authentik has the benefit of good rates. [...]

We would have needed more time!

(Translated by Google) The organization of the trip and the documentation were perfect, beyond that. from this to what we expected.
In addition to the discovery of the superb landscapes, this trip was the opportunity to become aware of the history of Canada and the culture of the Amerindians.
The reservation on our satisfaction relates only to the lack of time to really enjoy all that there is. discover.
Just a (small) remark: the search for a gas station before returning the car to the station. Calgary has been complicated. [...]

great trip but choice of some hotels to review

(Translated by Google) Nice trip very well organized. but some hotels not up to standard such as clearwater lodge (noisy, breakfast worthy of a holiday camp) and tekkara lodge jasper "cabin" room (?????) without chair very small microscopic bathroom and poorly equipped ;, bad breakfast and little choice)

Magnificent and grandiose trip

(Translated by Google) Region with breathtaking landscapes, grandiose, we were amazed.
And thank you for the GPS with the addresses of the hotels programmed it was great what a time saver.

The landscape and wild nature lover will literally be amazed.

(Translated by Google) I want you to enjoy our trip to Canada and more specifically Western Canada (Alberta and British Columbia).
This road trip, that Authentic Canada to; organized and reserved 6 months to advance, has been a success!!! We didn't want to stress or waste time on hotels, car rentals, itineraries or activities, especially when we don't speak good English. Traveling taught me how to have confidence in life, in myself and in embrace the unknown with serenity. If I had planned this road-trip with a purely Cartesian reflection, I would certainly never have attempted it; because there were too many uncertainties. Good excuses, there are tons of them when you let yourself be ruled by fear. But then, at the beginning of September, the magic of the unknown manifested itself. The landscape and wild nature lover will literally be amazed. But I was really far from imagining the beauty. from this place… Thanks to; Authentic Canada, and more specifically to Laurence, Advisor, for your professional and personalized service. I'm already thinking about to California... [...]

Circuit compliant with; our expectations and well-documented road book

A beautiful itinerary for a moment out of time!

(Translated by Google) Superb stay!

It all starts at; the arrival at Vancouver, where our detailed roadbook; travel waiting for us in the room. This is a nice little hardcover book. which is extremely well done and which made our stay and our travels extremely simple and pleasant. We only got to no moment felt lost and not knowing what to do, it is extremely appreciable in the context of a traveling stay like this.
Western Canada is absolutely beautiful and the Canadians we met; were adorable. Lovers of hiking, wild life and warm human experiences, you will be won over!
The itinerary offers a very interesting contrast of landscapes and atmospheres over 2 weeks. The Pacific Coast fills your heart with tranquility as the Rockies the following week take your breath away with their majesty. !
We particularly fell in love with Jasper National Park, a real gem that deserves to stay there for a whole week. This is perhaps the only "negative" point of the stay, since 14 days seemed too short to us compared to the previous stay. the quantity things to do to do and to see on the route.

In any case, we will keep fond memories of this superb romantic getaway, which allowed us to find time for both of us after a year of racing in our professional lives.

Many thanks to; Gabrielle from the Authentik Canada team for her attentive listening to our preferences and requests. [...]

(Translated by Google) Hello to; all,
I am French and I wanted to go to Canada since the age of 10... I am 28.
Very nice trip in Western Canada! enriching by its landscapes and by the people we met. People are welcoming, say "Hello", ask if "how are you", they are also open-minded and open-minded. the discussion. We did a road trip from Vancouver to; Calgary.
Side organization, I really recommend Authentik Canada for your trips to Canada. The road book delivered "by hand" to; the first hotel room has brought us additional activities (Venue advice, restaurants, festival) despite our already busy schedule. well filled. A word of advice if you wish to have a well-loaded program, do not hesitate to plan a personal road book before leaving with many activities that you will have found; in documents. The weather can change your plans sometimes.
This trip allowed me to open my eyes to human relationships, the "zero waste" solution applied; in Canada; And the beauty decor.

Thanks to; Virginia and to Authentic Canada
Without hesitation I will return

Excellent service that we could see on site

(Translated by Google) We chose this route because our daughter had taken a train ride from Chicago to; Vancouver. Vancouver Island was our main objective. Marion helped us. to complete with the Rockies and we are delighted.
We could not use the GPS Authentik because programmed; in Montreal I believe, and program the Avis Hotel route to; Vancouver has messed things up. Luckily the car's GPS was fine and we only used it. than this one
As far as the car is concerned, the Avis service is minimal (for French people) because they are limited to; return the key (in Florida we had a minimum of practical information...). The model differs from those already shown. taken in hand, and there are "tricks" that we obtained while stopping at Ford to have explanations on the delay of closing the doors, that nobody should be behind the vehicle except the The boot lid does not lock, the driving position adjustment is not "simply".
I would like to attract your attention to the fact that the "normal" driving position without using the cruise control (many changes due to works) leads to a kind of tendinitis of the right knee (we have noticed many cases of people pulling the right leg). In your advice to drivers a warning would perhaps be welcome.
Driving in Canada is a bit surprising for a European. Draw attention to the fact that you must constantly monitor the authorized speed displayed on the GPS. Limits to; 20 KM/H in the middle of the mountains or at 30 surprise a little, it seems that it is to because of the bears...which could arise...
It spoils a bit but the rest is great, so... [...]

Western Canada personalized trip-tour with family (3 weeks)

(Translated by Google) We are delighted with our stay. The landscapes are within walking distance. Breathtaking. We had the chance to approach many animals (whales, bears, caribou...) Each day was different from the previous one with new discoveries and new activities. The organization is absolutely perfect. We blindly followed our road-book which was so clear. absolute. A big thank you for the GPS where all the addresses were recorded chronologically.
Beware of bank cards for which the Canadian reading system may be different, which posed a problem for us. a problem when borrowing the car from avis. This could be solved (on a Sunday!) thanks to efficient and friendly telephone assistance from Authentik Canada. [...]

Very good organization, very good adviser!

(Translated by Google) The organization has been perfect, the hotels were on the other hand sometimes very average...we had the impression of receiving the least good rooms of each establishment. But it still allowed us to discover Western Canada without having to worry about the organization.

Nature, cities and hikes

(Translated by Google) It is absolutely necessary on Vancouver Island to access the side Pacific island (Tofino for example)
But for that, provide accommodation on site
Define when creating the trip, where the priorities go: cities and culture or landscape and hikes /> THANK YOU to; Laurence for her help in design this trip
everything was perfectly reserved; and the correct description (too bad the roadbook is not printed in color)
why not provide a duplicate of the voucher (once delivered, you no longer know what services are provided - breakfast for example)
the GPS has been very useful sometimes to get directly to the hotel [...]
