If you are planning to visit glacier, Road scholar is the way to go. We had easy access to all the best areas, carefully planned walks during which we alway felt safe regarding wildlife. The Going to the Sun ride in the historic open top red bus was a highlight. And the Prince of Whales hotel in Waterton is not to be missed. Besides the hiking and seeing, we got so much depth and background to the geology, flora and fauna and history of what we were experiencing.

I don't think I could have picked a better itinerary for my first Road Scholar trip than the one I just participated in to Glacier & Waterton National Parks. We had wonderful hikes and great weather, not to mention getting to stay in 2 iconic national park lodges. Our trip leader Leila, hiking guides Deb & Lynette and bus driver Eric made sure our trip was unforgettable. We also had a very congenial group of adventurers, which added so much to the experience. Many new friends were made. Just a wonderful tour and experience. I can't wait to go on my next Road Scholar adventure!

Immerse yourself in nature. Watch the morning fog drift across the mountains. See the sun set in brilliant orange. See a sky full of stars. Watch a moose pull dinner from the lake bottom. I was worried about the hikes. There are 3 levels. I chose the middle level and found the 4 miles enjoyable. FYI. It has been a looong time since I blew out 70 candles. Learn about the history of Glacier, the plants, the animals and the fires. It was a privilege to stay in two historic lodges with comfortable beds and million dollar views. It makes you forget all the steps. Food? Great. Leila, our leader, kept us on schedule with patience and kindness. She is a great teacher and story teller. Lisa and Pam also get credit for sharing their knowledge. When you see the crowded parking lots and narrow roads, you'll be thankful for Randy, the bus driver. Advice: bring a hat, sunscreen, hiking shoes, water bottle, clothes you can layer. Pack lightly. Bell service is at 7:00 so you don't want to bring the kitchen sink. I feel like I just went to heaven.

Verna – Class of 2022 | Arnett, OK
After a really excellent experience on our first Road Scholar trip, we were a little skeptical that the second could live up to the high standard. We were not disappointed. The itinerary was well balanced between educational opportunities and free time. Leaders Pat, Marilyn, and Lori communicated their expertise in science and history quite well. They handled a sensitive situation appropriately. Beyond that they were caring and considerate, going the extra mile to celebrate a birthday. And VERY importantly, they were a lot of fun! We were thankful to bus driver Mark for his expertise and willingness to make the bus available when we needed to deposit or retrieve our belongings. He added to the camaraderie of the group. The accommodations and food were given a thumbs up by our travel group of four. We sampled all things huckleberry and will definitely remember the huckleberry pie, cheesecake, and margaritas even if we forget the science. Climbing to the fourth floor was a challenge but our friends met the challenge! We are very glad we chose this trip as it gave us the once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience the historic lodges. The size of the group really affords the chance to get acquainted and share travel tips and tales. Two of our number discovered they knew each other as children and could catch up after 60 or so years. Overall we rate this trip as superior and will be looking for another Road Scholar experience soon!

Mark – Class of 2018 | Shelton, WA
This program is far more than a close-up, awe-inspiring view of the Rocky Mountains. It provides a fun and comprehensive experience of all facets of Glacier and Waterton National Parks. Our group leader Leila Robinson, her two dynamic assistants, and expert speakers brought geology, biology, history, folklore, and First People’s culture and stewardship to life. We travelled through forests, along mountain lakes, and into the alpine as we crossed Logan Pass. We felt that we both saw and understood the area. All the food and lodging were wonderful. Staying in the original Many Glaciers and Prince of Wales lodges was a treat that is otherwise very hard to accomplish on your own. Each day we had three choices of fairly easy hikes (mellow, moderate, motivated). My wife and I enjoy travelling as a couple, so were concerned being part of a group of 38 would be challenging, but within the first days we all bonded into a really enjoyable, fun-loving and supportive family. I highly recommend this Road Scholar program.

Bill | Westminster, CO
This tour was wonderful for seeing the highlights of the two parks, Glacier and Waterton. Staying at the historic lodges was amazing, the best part of the trip by far given how hard it can be to get reservations at the hotels. This trip is a large group, filling a large tour bus, and so we now know to look for the "small groups" designation on the web site. The trip was a bit more sedate than we had hoped for, with slow nature hikes being the norm each day, but again, we now know to look for hikes designated as hiking trips. Our favorite spot on the trip was Waterton, what an amazing location! The lake boat tour there was excellent.

Road Scholar provided a comprehensive and affordable tour of Glacier and Watertown Lake Parks that covered all the major highlights of both parks in only 7 days. This included staying at historic hotels and riding the Going to the Sun Road on the Red Bus. Arranging these things would have taken major planning otherwise. The education value on such tours is also excellent.

We were here for two weeks, starting with the Road Scholar program, Best of Glacier Park, then staying for this Glacier/Waterton National Parks. There was some overlap but that’s OK, as this scenery could be easily viewed every day and you never get tired of it. Our guide was the masterful Susan with sidekicks Marilyn and Candy who make the hikes fun, varied, and educational. The days were filled morning and afternoon, whether hikes, speakers, outings. Entering Canada required its protocol and bureaucracy, but Susan made sure we were prepared for those challenges. You’re on the bus a lot on this trip to be sure you got from Whitefish to Many Glacier to Prince of Wales in Waterton. All these are superb accommodations, with all the luggage transfers handled by staff. We made two wonderful stops in Canada, a fascinating Carriage Museum and the powerful, moving Head-Smashed-in Buffalo Jump World Heritage Site. You do not want to miss this. Traveling in July was perfect as the roads were opened and the waterfalls were flowing. —Ben and Joyce Wiley/Florida

The scenery was amazing! Going to the Sun Road was a wonderful experience and seeing the wildlife on Logan’s Pass was a highlight. Head Smashed in Buffalo Jump was a great learning experience with Donovan helping us understand the ancient form of hunting. I would not hesitate to recommend this program.
