Hi All. I'm new to Just You and have today booked my first holiday with them, the Canadian Rockies and Vancouver for next May! I'd love to hear from anyone who has done this trip before so I know what to expect. Very excited though!!

I did this holiday last year and can thoroughly recommend it. If you can afford it, Alaska cruise add-on is very worthwhile. Weather can be changeable, especially in May (I went in September) but scenery and towns are breath-taking. Enjoy!

Hi there,
I'm doing the Alaska add-on as I thought "if I'm going this far, I might as well go the rest!" and am now so looking forward to it - only a few more days to go now. Have taken all the advice re layers of clothing etc - what was it like to eat out whilst on the tour, as lunch and evening meals aren't included in the tour, but I know they are on the cruise?
Many thanks in anticipation
Annie

All meals are included on cruise - more than you can manage, including a fabulous midnight dessert buffet. The desserts are designed as art forms in the shape of structures, statues, pictures etc. Very attractive and photogenic!

Thanks for this, David - will let you know how the whole thing goes when I get back - weather forecast for the Rockies part of it is very good!
Take care
Annie

Hi Annie, Hope you had a fab time. As you mentioned about the cost of eating out on the normal tour, could you perhaps let me know about that, as I have absolutely no idea about how much spending money to take? Are the meals included on the plane journey as well-the last time I travelled BA they were but so much has changed.
Thanks
