This channel's main goal is to help you plan your vacation while minimizing your work and maximizing your pleasure with Ultimate Travel Guides. I love to research, learn and plan. Every trip I take is thought out well in advance. I'm not very impulsive! I particularly love National Parks and locations where there is beauty and history.

Many years ago I worked in the tourism industry for more than a decade. I worked for the public relations department of the Calgary Stampede (for 3 years) and then for more than 10 years with Tourism Calgary (once known as the Calgary Tourist and Convention Bureau and then the Calgary Convention and Visitors Bureau). I had a direct role in promoting tourism attractions and the infrastructure supporting tourism (hotels, restaurants, transportation).

This channel is dedicated to my father-in-law, Dr. Buzz Ely. An incredible human being and missed more than I can express.
