💥Some really nice and very useful feedback on a visit to the increasingly popular Canadian Maritimes.💥
Hello Duncan, We have now been back a week and have just about got our feet back on the ground. This is our 5th holiday with Complete North America and once again they did not let us down. The book we received before hand with all the planning in one place really got us excited and Nova Scotia did not let us down. Anyone interested in history will find the island fascinating and the scenery is to die for. The only problem is that you need more than a fortnight to really explore the island.
Can I list the pros and cons. Cons. Digby Pines - a box room, overlooking a yard(not the sea and certainly not deluxe) Inveraray Resort - another box room that was dirty, no view and we were surrounded by bikers who started their bikes every morning at 6am. We loved Charlos Cove with one of the best stays but it was a long way to go for just one night Pros (this is a long list) Halifax Citadil, Maritime Museum, water front Luneburg, Bluenose, Kejimkujik National Park,Annapolis Royal, Truro Victoria Park, Inverness beach, CABOT TRAIL, ski Cape Smokey, Grand Pre, Lockett Vineyard, Wolfville, Charlos Cove, A.G.Bell museum. I’m sure I could go on forever.
A wonderful holiday filled with so many happy memories. Thank you Duncan and your team.
Location: Mariposa, CA Percent Contained: 5% Start Date: July 4, 2024 Size: 843 acres
We are currently monitoring the French Fire, which started on July 4th at 6:33PM Pacific Time. The fire is burning near Mariposa, CA, which is approximately 40 miles from Yosemite National Park, and is currently 5% contained. Dozers and handcrews worked hard to establish a fireline around the entire eastern side of the community of Mariposa. As the fire is moderated, firefighters will continue to focus on the eastern side of the fire. Winds have calmed which has helped firefighters make progress overnight. Highway 140 is closed outside the park in the Mariposa area, all other roads to Yosemite are currently open. There may be longer delays than normal at entrance stations, however, the fire is not threatening Yosemite National Park and the park remains open and accessible to visitors.

💥Great feedback for New England holidays - thanks Stuart 💥
Duncan,
Just an email to say thank you for sorting everything for our trip.
It really was wonderful and everything re both remembered and expected.
In the first three hotels, we were upgraded which was wonderful and it was lovely to see that some places had not changed.
The stop at Boothbay harbour was absolutely exceptional, because it was on the week of there Windjammer Festival. It was one of the most beautiful places we have ever had the opportunity to visit. We obviously like the water and sailing boats and with so many scooners from yesteryear on the water, it was wonderful.
It will not be the last you hear from us, because we are now looking at doing the deep south, and i like one of your escorted tours i have seen.
💥Another great Western Canada experience - who's next!💥
Good Morning
We had a fantastic holiday in Canada. Thank you very much to you and your team at Complete North America for all you did to ensure that was the case. Every hotel, every tour knew we were coming and there was never a query about a booking. The car hire was very smooth - we picked it up the night before planned to enable us to make an early start out of Vancouver and beat the traffic.
Canada as I am sure you know is awesome(!). Stunning scenery and very friendly people.
If I hear of anyone crossing the Atlantic I will thoroughly recommend your company and hope to use it again one day for another visit (when we have saved up!)

Hi Duncan
We got back from the US yesterday and are now back home so just wanted to thank you for organising an amazing holiday.
We’ve had a brilliant time and everything went to plan - flights, hotels, car hire all spot on so thank you. Loved all the places in their different ways and so many highlights to pick out but we particularly loved San Fran, Monterey, driving down Big Sur (most of way) and Grand Canyon. Vegas is obviously like nothing else and was great too - our highlight there was the Sphere where the Postcards from Earth show was unbelievable.
Thanks again for everything - won’t hesitate to recommend you to friends if others ask for advice in booking anything similar in the future.
I've had a really wonderful trip. You arranged everything so beautifully and it all went so smoothly. The hotels you'd booked for me were all very good and convenient for the skating. The shows were marvellous- so ingenious and skilful and ,as
always, it was very special to meet the skaters. The 'Stars on Ice Tour' book which Nicola had designed was so well presented and useful I'm definitely going to keep it. I loved explorimg all the different places( some for the first time) and I had some great walks along by rivers( 2 of them even called the Thames and the Avon!) and lakes. It was a particular thrill to go to Statford, Ontario( on my bucket list for years) and see 'Romeo and juliet' and 'Hedda Gabler' there.
A reminder for anyone wanting to access Lake Louise and Moraine Lake in the Canadian Rockies, today is the day to get online and book your park and ride tickets before they sell out. Link below for more info. ... See MoreSee Less
Take Parks Canada shuttles or public transit to visit. Book your shuttle in advance. There is limited Lakeside parking. Moraine Lake access via bus only.
Another great #route 66 holiday experience for our valued customers, thanks for the feedback!
Thanks for the emails. It gives us confidence that should anything happen, we know someone is there for us. The trip went very well and we really were impressed with the fine detail pointing out when would get charged extras such as local taxes or parking charges. This meant a great deal and kept us stress free.
I wish i had more time to stop at more of the little places along the route. I think next time i would try for 3 weeks doing it with extra stops in between the stops we made this time but our holiday allowances at work would not allow this until we retire.
All we have to do is save up now for the next North American adventure. Probably the west coast highway!
Can you pass on to your team our gratitude for their efforts in getting this right for us.
It was a great trip.
