My husband and I worked with Wanda at Crowfoot Travel to book a vacation for spring 2023. We ended up booking a trip to Mexico through her with Exoticca for March 2023. A week or two before our trip began the Canadian and US governments blasted travel warnings to avoid non-essential travel to certain areas of Mexico due to cartel violence targeting tourists. Our tour was traveling through the central highlands sometimes off the beaten path to numerous towns and a few of our routes were mentioned in the travel advisory. We made the difficult decision to cancel our trip based on the government travel advisories. Wanda was completely unsupportive and even said that if it was actually dangerous the tour operator would cancel the tour (unlikely as this would mean they would have to refund everyone). Interestingly enough when we had started working with her, we had wanted to go to Peru and she advised against it because of the travel advisories due to violence down there - the same as the ones for Mexico just before our trip “avoid non-essential travel”. I ended up contacting Exoticca directly (her Rep) and she really didn’t like that at all and was actually quite rude about it. Had she done her job and acted as our advocate it wouldn’t have been necessary. It was our credit card company that saved the day. They gathered all of the email communication between Wanda and us and looked at the government warnings and said we absolutely did the right thing. They worked with Exoticca who agreed to refund us the entire amount of our trip. It took two months of back and forth and patience but it was worth it. This was my first and last time dealing with Crowfoot Travel but we would absolutely deal directly with Exoticca in the future. These days it’s super easy to book travel ourselves but we’re led to believe that if anything goes wrong it’s better to have an agent. I guess the true colors of a travel agent are exposed when something like this happens and they need to step up to the plate and do the right thing. Some will and some won’t.

I recently planned a Destination Bachelor Party. Luckily I was able to connect with Ken at Crowfoot Travel to help with this day. We originally had approximately 15 guys come, but in the end only 10 ended up making the trip. Ken supplied us with fantastic All-Inclusive recommendations in several different destinations (PV, Cancun, Cabo, Punta Cana, Jamaica). After careful deliberation, we went to Barcelo Beach in Punta Cana. Ken was able to lock us in at a very good for all original attendees, and gave us a promotion for free cancelation. Lucky for the ~5 guys who could no longer make the trip, as they were refunded fully. To take this one step further, a few months later, Ken cancelled and rebooked all of our trips at an even better price! We ended up saving hundreds of dollars PER PERSON! This was above and beyond that I have seen with any travel agent. Ken also supplied us with great resources to find/research our excursions. However, we opted to decide to purchase excursions upon arrival. Ken's efforts here where still greatly appreciated. Ken was great with informing us with all the travel documents required long before our trip so we had time to prepare. None of us had been outside the country since covid I don't think, so that was a great resource. When the new variant came to Canada, we were right in the middle of our vacation. There was a lot of uncertainty as to what we needed to do to get home. Ken was very responsive and gave us as much information as he could in the ever evolving situation. Fortunately we all made it back and did not even miss our flights. All in all it was a very successful bachelor party. We loved the resort and I would recommend it to anyone going to Punta Cana. Thank you Ken and Crowfoot Travel for the fantastic work. We will definitely use this company again in the future. I am planning 2 more bachelor parties and if they end up being destination events as well, I will 100% use Kens services.

We recently booked a trip to Mexico with Gary as he was highly recommended. We initially wanted to go to P.V. but it was more affordable to take his advice and stay at Suncscape Dorado Ixtapa. He advocated that this was a superb resort. Let me start by saying that our flight was delayed 3 hours going down with no notification from Gary and no seats were assigned for us as he forgot to book them. The resort food was terrible and cold, or overcooked.The staff used bare hands when serving food. Flies in fruit and yogurt and so much more. We shared our experience with Gary and his response was that he was surprised. We reached out again to ask about return flights and seat selection. We booked our own at our expense. Gary did not reach out again about our ongoing concerns over food prep etc. Two other Canadians fell quite ill at Sunscape as did I. I began to vomit on the plane coming home last night. Still recovering at home today. The problem is not the problem BUT how you deal with the problem! Lack of service and communication has left my husband and I feeling very dissatisfied with Gary. I thought a travel agents responsibility is to stay in touch throughout the trip and to ensure clients return home safely. As I said earlier this was the first time using Crowfoot travel, and the last. Steve & Lorie.

Rod and I highly recommend Gary Rams for all your travel requirements. We just completed a 40 day trip to Turkey, Greece and Italy. Gary was referred to us 10 months ago and he organized travel insurance, transfers to our hotel and made last minute flight changes for us in the Dominican Republic. We usually do not use a travel consultant. We were very pleased with his suggestions and recommendations to complete our travel plans.He is very detail orientated which we appreciated and met with us to explain all the details for our trip. All tours, extra excursions, hotels, transfers, and even our check in for our flights were taken care of. He virtually toured with us, checking in from time to time, very supportive, and prompt in obtaining information when requested. His Moto: Relax it's all taken care of and have fun. Gary is true to his word! Thank you for helping us organize and enjoy our memorable trip.

Wanda Popadynetz is one of the best travel advisor we have encountered. She is reliable and prompt, and she consistently looks after our interest in getting us the best value for our travel dollars. For example, at our recent 14-day Alaska Cruise Tour, she noticed there was a price decease from Holland America and she was able to rebook us for the same stateroom for $1,000 less. As a result, we used the money to purchased a 7-day meal plan for the land tour! The dinners were great and well worth the convenience of this meal plan. In addition, she also booked the White Pass Rail & Yukon Expedition which was in high demand and we could not do it on line ourselves. This rail excursion was simply amazing.

In April 2023 my friend and I traveled to Peru on a 17 day trip going from Lima to Iquitos to Cusco to the Inca trail 4 day hike and back to Lima before home.. it was incredible! It was seamless and smooth every step of the way. Everything was taken care of. When I had some confusion at the airport I was able to reach out to Gary to talk me through it (I was meeting my friend there so I was traveling alone), he helped me through. I have nothing but good things to say and would definetly recommend him and Crowfoot travel - including my own future endeavors! Trip of a lifetime for sure!

I usually book my international flights online, on my own, however with the current situation doing so is more complicated and there are fewer options. As well, changes may pose a problem when booking through 3rd party websites – it’s impossible to get a real person on the phone. So this time I felt it best to book with a professional in case of any complications because of Covid. Ken was informative, helpful and super patient with all of my questions (a lot of them) and changes. I highly recommend giving Ken a call to have peace of mind for your travel plans.

We recently took a trip to Dubai and thanks to Gary Rams, our trip surpassed our expectations. Gary spent countless hours finding the best airfare, accommodations and tours. We have relied on Gary for many years, to book our trips. Not only is Gary very personable, but very trustworthy and we now consider him family. Gary has always gone over and beyond to ensure we are safe and that our trips are memorable. Thank you Gary for always being there for us! You are an incredible asset to the travel industry!

Group trips HIGHLY recommend! Ken organized a group of 32 of us to go to Mexico over the holidays. He navigated all of our questions with professionalism, kept us up to date with the ever changing covid rules and went the extra mile to ensure we all enjoyed our time. I will be using Ken again whenever we travel. If you are thinking about getting a travel agent, do it! All the stress is taken off of you, and you can just enjoy your vacation. Thank you Ken!

It was a pleasure dealing with Ken! I usually book online but with all the changes and travel concerns, I choose to book our trip through a travel agent. I called Ken with a short timeline and he was able to organize an amazing trip to Mexico! He was quick to respond by phone/email and answered all my questions. It took the stress off! I would definitely recommend Ken and can’t wait to plan out next trip (this time with more notice )

10 years ago myself and my husband met Gary Rams who helped us book a trip of a lifetime to China & Hong Kong. We were so impressed with how he took care of the itinerary we have continued to book through Gary for all our trips. He listens to our wishes and needs and has made every trip a smooth process for us that has meant the best memories have been created through fun and adventure. Can’t recommend him enough! Thank you Gary!

We needed help to organize a family trip of 17 people to the Dominican in February 2023. Our family was made up of many different ages so we needed a resort with something for everyone. They helped us find the perfect place. Dealing with Ken and Crowfoot Travel made it so easy. He answered every question we had and returned calls within the hour. Our next holiday we will definitely be calling Ken.

I have been using Gary at Crowfoot travel for the last five or six years to book all my vacations. He’s always managed to get me good flights internationally with excellent timing and short layovers. Excellent service, always available and checking up to make sure that everything is OK. I would not use anybody else nor would I book online when you can get such great service. Kudos Gary.

I need help planning a solo trip to Europe for 3 weeks. Gary Rams previously helped my parents on different vacations and did the same for me. Everything was taken care and helped find me a good, tour group where I got to see many historic places. Also was very helpful with booking the flights and had no issues. I will definitely use this company to plan my next vacation.

We trust his recommendations and appreciate his honest and quick responses to our inquiries.

We are new to the Calgary area and were looking for a Travel Agent close by for a trip down South this WInter. We were lucky to find Ken at Crowfoot Travel Solutions. For various reasons, we had to change plans a few times. Ken was extremely helpful and professional throughout the planning stages and answered our emails and inquiries promptly and efficiently.

You’re in excellent hands when you deal with Gary! He did an incredible job on flight deals, visas, transfers and tours in Africa. We have worked with Gary on many trips and he takes pride in understanding his clients needs/wants and creating a very customized trip. Would highly recommend

This was my first time using a travel agent, and I absolutely will again. Ken made it so easy to use my west jet points, and helped us navigate having to move our trip several months later last minute. I can't speak highly enough of them!! It has been such a great experience!!

I’ve used Crowfoot Travel for a few years now. Ken Stewart has always been extremely helpful and available for questions and concerns. With the face of International travel having changed, it’s great to have someone in the know on your side. I highly recommend this company.
