​                            A few other things to know about Canadian Rockies / Pacific Northwest Tour:
Current U.S. Passport: This tour requires everyone to have a United State Passport with an expiration date no earlier than SIX months after the tour departs. So in this case, your expiration date on your passport should not be earlier than  March 2019. Though passport cards are acceptable to cross the U.S. and Canadian borders by vehicle, should you become ill and have to fly home from the Canadian side, a passport card cannot be used at an airport. We highly recommend full U.S. passports but the decision is yours. You decide what works best for you.   
 

Reservations: Reservations are taken on a first-come, first-served basis. No reservation is held without a financial deposit made.
 

Meals: We have included many meals in this tour package. Tips are included for all meals arranged by Happy Trails. Most restaurants will be family style but you will notice on occasion to save time, we'll stop at fast-food restaurants.
 

Hotels: The hotels are very nice – 3 & 4 Star - Occasionally we may get a property that does not have an elevator. Let us know if you need a first-floor room IF no elevator is available. All rooms booked are non-smoking. Most properties along this journey offer coin-operated laundry.  
 

Fully Guided with Professional Drivers and Escorts: Not to worry  - you’re in good hands! Our escorts are very personable and will greet each of you as they take great care in operating a well organized tour. Our drivers are wonderful... very personable and very experienced!  
 
Dress Code & How to Pack: As far as dress code, the tour is comfortable and casual - Pack good walking shoes. Bring along a light weight jacket.
Bring sunscreen.
 

Luggage: Pack one suitcase each. This suitcase is delivered each night to your rooms by the porter. (Tips are included). You may bring a carry-on bag, as well, on board. Carry-on bags are handled by yourself. Do not make them heavier than what you can carrry. Pack a swimming suit if you enjoy the pool, bring a camera, a raincoat, & an umbrella. It is wise to pack an alarm clock, too, as sometimes a glitch occurs for wake-up calls from the front desk.  Please do not bring coolers on board. We make ample stops for breaks.
 

The Coach/ Seat Rotation: The coach is a brand new  56 passenger motorcoach with reclining seats, big windows, restroom, TV’, CD &  DVD and chartered through Trobec’s Bus Company, St Stephens. The coach has seatbelts,  cup holders and spacious leg room. It also has a restroom, microphone.  Limited Wi-Fi & 110 outlets are also offered. 
We do not rotate seats so you will keep the seat you have throughout the tour. If you have a special need for seating, kindly let us know in advance. We will pre-assign your seat according to physical need and the date of registration. We stop every 2 - 3 hours for breaks.  PLEASE NOTE:  Sometimes we end up on a stretch of road/interstate that may prevent us from stopping exactly at 2.5 or 3 hours. We do our best to accommodate but remember…there’s also a restroom on board IF you need it. Thank you for your understanding.
 

Shuttles For Our Friends From Central MN - Baxter-Little Falls-Sartell-Twin Cities AREA:  Sometimes, if an area where we promised to be a boarding location, falls short in numbers, we may have to offer a small shuttle vehicle. We hope you'll understand why we occassionally offer smaller shuttle vehicles. By smaller vehicle such as a car or SUV.   
 

Special Needs: Be sure to let us know of any special needs...such as diet, walking, stairs, allergies or motion sickness, etc…. If you use a wheelchair, walker (one with a seat is best) or a scooter, please let us know.  Please refrain from using strong cologns or perfumes while on board the coach. So many folks have allergies and we want everyone comfortable while traveling.  Diabetics are encouraged to bring along some little snacks as we cannot always promise meal breaks on schedule though we do our best to. Remember we are also moving into Mountain and Pacific Time Zones. So pack accordingly.  This tour is manageable for folks with limited walking or special needs. There are very limited long distances to walk. It does not include hiking, though there may be short walks to some of the overlooks. It may be challenging if you need a wheel chair or scooter. Ask you doctor if your health can manage traveling in high mountain elevations.
 

Tipping: The tour includes tips for luggage handling, meals and step-on-guides who step on board the coach and included meals.  Tips are not included for your driver & on board travel host. It is customary to tip them at the end of the tour.
 

On Board Activities: We play movies, play games, listen to CDs & tell stories as we pass the time along while traveling. If you have a cute joke or story (and it’s appropriate for all audiences!) then we invite you to use the microphone and share your humor with all on board.
 

Schedule Changes:  We reserve the right to adjust this schedule for the benefit of all traveling. Sometimes changes occur beyond our control. If a change occurs, we’ll replace it something of equal value. We have no control over any of the attractions listed in this flyer nor can we control hotels, tour companies (other than our own); restaurants and theaters.
