Warning! Risk of life! This tour operator works very dangerous and with the sole purpose of making money! The accommodations they describe as comfortable are terrific cabins, some with no drinking water from taps. The worst thing, which puts the passenger's life at serious risk are the buses, with rebuilt tires and tread-offs. We were stopped for this by the police, who rightly blocked the bus forbidding to continue. We waited for more than 9 hours of help in the night, in the mountains, on a trail of the freeway in the forest, that they would be rescued. These incapable people came from Calgary, far more than 430 miles of small buses, instead of getting cabs from Jasper, near 15 minutes, to get us to sleep there fast. Not to spend extra, they brought us where the reservation was and we arrived in this last dreary dorm at 4 and a half in the morning, after a nightmare. DO NOTTRUST TO POSITIVE REPORT: ARE FALSE !!!!!!!

Hello Marco, Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback. We are sorry you had an unpleasant time on your tour. As discussed in person with you, we outsource bus companies to provide transportation. Blue Star, the bus company we currently work with, have never had a breakdown, until now. Their drivers do 'pre-trip' and 'post-trip' inspections every day to ensure the safety of their buses.   The problem with the bus had nothing to do with the tires. During the course of the day a strut broke and, rather than taking the chance of continuing to Jasper, the bus company opted to take the safer option and pulled off the highway.  The police officer simply alerted the driver to a strange noise he heard coming from the back right tires. He didn't issue a ticket or a warning.  He and the driver discussed the issue and together they decided it would be safest to wait for a replacement bus.   Unfortunately, the breakdown happened on one of the busiest weekends in the busiest tourist areas in all of Canada. Finding a replacement bus was extremely difficult as every bus out there was already assigned. Blue Star was lucky to find any bus, and it was only through their perseverance they located mini-coaches in Calgary. Taxis were never an option for the same reason outlined above. On one of the busiest weekends of the year there simply weren't enough taxis in the small town of Jasper to accommodate all the passengers from a highway coach. As well, it wasn't possible to change our hotel booking and simply book a hotel for 57 people in Jasper. Unfortunately, there is nothing available for last minute bookings in a resort town in the rockies. Again we are sorry Marco for your experience, and would be happy to continue to explain what happened with you. ` For those reading along, Marco asked we pay him $5000 for his inconvenience and when we refused, he started his online campaign against us. We invite you to check Trip Advisor for a more realistic appraisal of our business.   Best, Erin Queenan

Past adventurers.

Excellent tour. Accommodations, meals, vehicle met and many times exceeded expectations. Each day offered new adventures, sites, options. Itinerary was perfect with driver/guide Kara being professional, cheerful, thoughtful and adaptable. I highly recommend Discover Canada and wish they did tours in the east as well. Great value for money. The support from Jennifer at head office to reconfigure end of trip helpful as well. Thanks for memorable holiday in the west.

My mom and I, along with her friends did the full day sightseeing tour to Vancouver island with a visit to the Butchart Gardens. We had an absolutely fantastic experience and I would highly recommend if you want to see the island and gardens as the travel is all planned out and you get to sit back and enjoy everything!

Discover Canada also provides very good pricing for everything you get and our tour guide Joe was fantastic and very kind! He was very knowledgeable and made everyone feel comfortable and answered random questions everyone had throughout the day.

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Value

I took the Whistler sightseeing tour with Joe as our guide, it was really great! Joe was very friendly and helpful, informative and knowledgeable about BC and its history; he told us interesting tidbits and stories about the province and Whistler/Blackcomb. I enjoyed being able to do my own thing on the tour, Whistler was beautiful! Thanks again to Joe and Discover Canada Tours!

Moscow Metro

The Moscow Metro Tour is included in most guided tours’ itineraries. Opened in 1935, under Stalin’s regime, the metro was not only meant to solve transport problems, but also was hailed as “a people’s palace”. Every station you will see during your Moscow metro tour looks like a palace room. There are bright paintings, mosaics, stained glass, bronze statues… Our Moscow metro tour includes the most impressive stations best architects and designers worked at - Ploshchad Revolutsii, Mayakovskaya, Komsomolskaya, Kievskaya, Novoslobodskaya and some others.

What is the kremlin in russia?

The guide will not only help you navigate the metro, but will also provide you with fascinating background tales for the images you see and a history of each station.

And there some stories to be told during the Moscow metro tour! The deepest station - Park Pobedy - is 84 metres under the ground with the world longest escalator of 140 meters. Parts of the so-called Metro-2, a secret strategic system of underground tunnels, was used for its construction.

During the Second World War the metro itself became a strategic asset: it was turned into the city's biggest bomb-shelter and one of the stations even became a library. 217 children were born here in 1941-1942! The metro is the most effective means of transport in the capital.

There are almost 200 stations 196 at the moment and trains run every 90 seconds! The guide of your Moscow metro tour can explain to you how to buy tickets and find your way if you plan to get around by yourself.

Fun facts from our Moscow Metro Tours:

From the very first days of its existence, the Moscow Metro was the object of civil defense, used as a bomb shelter, and designed as a defense for a possible attack on the Soviet Union.

At a depth of 50 to 120 meters lies the second, the coded system of Metro-2 of Moscow subway, which is equipped with everything you need, from food storage to the nuclear button.

According to some sources, the total length of Metro-2 reaches over 150 kilometers.

The Museum was opened on Sportivnaya metro station on November 6, 1967. It features the most interesting models of trains and stations.

Coffee Ring

The first scheme of Moscow Metro looked like a bunch of separate lines. Listen to a myth about Joseph Stalin and the main brown line of Moscow Metro.

Zodiac Metro

According to some astrologers, each of the 12 stops of the Moscow Ring Line corresponds to a particular sign of the zodiac and divides the city into astrological sector.

Astrologers believe that being in a particular zadiac sector of Moscow for a long time, you attract certain energy and events into your life.
