Top things to do in Jasper
Maligne Valley sightseeing & boat cruise
Journey across the Athabasca river to Maligne Lake, via a stop at Maligne Canyon for sweeping views of a series of magnificent waterfalls as the river passes through the canyon. Farther up the valley, visit Medicine Lake, a basin that fills up during spring and summer from glacier melt before being reduced to a trickling stream by October. On Maligne Lake, take a boat cruise bound for Spirit Island and enjoy the scenery along the way.
Wildlife watching in Jasper
Join an experienced guide in search of Jasper's most iconic animals and learn how they add to the rich diversity of Jasper National Park. Established in 1907, Jasper is one of Canada's oldest and largest national parks, and encompasses more than 1000km of trails, thousands of campsites, mountain peaks, valleys and lakes. Wildlife is widely dispersed in the park, but your guide will know the best places to look for the many species that have been recorded here, including elk, white-tailed deer, bighorn sheep, pine martens and coyotes.

Solo travel…what’s stopping you?

Read more"There were several inspirational moments - the obvious one was Petra itself, which didn't disappoint, but there were less obvious ones too; Little Petra was so atmospheric, the drive through Wadi Rum and the Bedouin lunch was excellent but perhaps the most inspirational was witnessing an impromptu dance and exuberant singing by school girls at Jerash, which obviously wasn't planned but give us a real feeling for the wonderful people of Jordan.
Mrs Sharon Snell"
"Full marks!
Ms. Parr"
"The whole organisation worked incredibly well and we had a most informative and enjoyable visit. Yoshie Matsumoto must be the most outstanding guide in Japan. She was absolutely superb and added a great deal to our enjoyment.
Mr Kirkland"
"I am writing to thank you for organising our excellent holiday in Morocco. All the accommodation was superb and our transfers went smoothly.
Mrs Welford"
"Seeing animals unique to Madagascar in their natural environment and able to photograph them as they fed and interacted with each other [was inspirational]. The tour guide, Tokey, had an amazing knowledge of all of the wildlife, plants - latin names included - and the history of the country and its people and customs.
Mr Ian Culley"
"I think Victoria Falls and then Bumi Hills resort were, without doubt, the highlights of the trip - which was a really fabulous trip.
Mr Steven Wigg"
"There were too many 'wow' moments to single out any one occasion. We think the fact that Cox & Kings had organised everything and there was minimal hiccups so making the whole trip inspirational was a credit to you all. Many thanks.
Mr David Cowdry"
"I just wanted to say thank you to you for arranging my recent trip to Egypt. It was a wonderful holiday and I felt really taken care of from beginning to end. Your advice regarding the extra day was excellent and the upgrade to a pyramid view room worth every penny.
Mrs. Eldridge"
"Our guide Abdul really made our holiday. He brought Egypt to life for us.
Mr Christopher Doel"
"We have had many holidays in different parts of the world, but this certainly ranks among the best. Thank you once again for your help and patience in organising it.
Mr and Mrs A Sherwood"
"The astonishing moment of entering the Cathedral of Monreale and the drama of the golden mosaics. Stupendous impact.
Dr Jennifer Somerville"
"I had a wonderful trip to India. It surpassed all expectations. From start to finish it was a flawless execution. The organisation was superb at all levels.
Mr Digges"
"Thank you for all your organisation, help and advice in the booking of our holiday to Egypt. Many thanks to your team, who have made our holiday such a success.
Mr Rowlands"
"The tour was consistently excellent in content, with new experiences each day. It was the overall joy of being in a country with friendly people, full of varied (and sometimes exciting) scenery, ancient forts, ultra modern mosques and even an opera house that we most remember. Our disappointment of not seeing turtles at Sur was compensated by seeing one in Muscat Harbour, diving and surfacing as it fed on the weed attached to the rocks.
Mr Clive Brooks"
