Hi there,

Has anyone done this tour before? Would be grateful if you could advise re weather, clothes required for this (almost) 3 week break and your thoughts on the holiday in general

hi, l have been to the rockies before and it was great you need to take thin layers then you have a joice,it should no tbe too cold, but as for the cruise l am looking forward to this, so you would need same clothes for daytime but evenng on a cruise is a bit different. but it should be great, going same time as you . take care, pauline

I have never done this tour, but I have been to the Rockies and also have done an Alaskan cruise. I did the cruise in August and can tell you that even then the weather was nippy! Take plenty of layers, a hat and gloves for when you are up on deck looking at the glaciers. And, actually, I think that is the key to your clothes......layers! The rockies will still be pretty warm at the beginning of September but it may well be cooling down in the evenings. Day time temperatures could still be anything from 22 to 30C.

I hope this helps a bit..........just do what I always do and pack the kitchen sink!!

Hi Pauline,

Many thanks for this - I looked up google and got the answer that you've given me, so hopefully I'll get it right! Am really looking forward to it - everyone I've spoken to has done nothing but praise the Alaska cruise, so that's also reassuring. Where are you going to be travelling from? I'll be getting a flight from Edinburgh to London and then picking up with everyone from there. Also doing the Halkidiki holiday in May and looking forward to that one too. Have you done any hols with JY before?

Take care

Anne
