Important info
Special notes
- What To Bring:
- 1 pair of comfortable shoes for trail walking. Hiking boots are not required unless you plan to do more challenging hikes on your own. If you're traveling in spring or autumn, when conditions may be wet, snowy, or muddy, consider bringing hiking shoes.
- 1 pair of smart-casual shoes
- 1 pair of flip-flops/thongs/jandals
- 2 pairs of jeans/long pants
- 2 pairs of shorts/skirts
- 4 shirts/t-shirts
- 2 sweaters/jumpers (layers are key!)
- Smart-casual evening wear
- Underwear and socks
- Swimsuit and towel
- 1 rain/windproof jacket
- Hat for sun and rain protection
- Beanie (called a toque in Canada) and light gloves—temperatures can drop in the Rockies and Coastal Mountains at higher altitudes or near glaciers, even in summer! - Baggage Allowance: Each traveller is allowed to bring one main piece of luggage, such as a backpack, bag, or suitcase, which will be stored in the rear luggage compartment of the bus on travel days. The maximum allowable weight is 23 kg (50 lbs), and the total linear dimensions (Height + Width + Depth) must not exceed 158 cm (62 in). Backpacks are recommended over suitcases as they optimize storage space in the luggage compartment and are easier to carry up the stairs at the hostels we use, none of which have elevators. In addition, each passenger may bring one "carry-on" item, such as a day pack or small bag, which will be kept in the passenger compartment of the bus.
- You'll have the opportunity to swim in the stunning glacial lakes on Day 1 and Day 2! Be sure to pack your swimsuit and a towel in your carry-on bag on these days. This will save you and your Moose guide the hassle of digging your main bag out of the rear luggage storage when you arrive at the lake.
- Please confirm your chosen pick-up location at least one week prior to your departure date.
Pricing notes (children, single supplement)
* Price is for mixed-gender hostel dorm rooms. If you wish to stay in gender-specific dorm rooms, you can request this at the time of booking. We will do our best to accommodate your request.
