Angela – United Kingdom

The trip was fantastic, we had enough time at each spot & Ron was a fantastic guide! He was very informative & had a great sense of humour. We had snow which made the experience even more magical.

Magaly – United States

Not having to drive the one hour to Lake Louise and Lake Moraine was very convenient. The shuttle was comfortable and the driver was aware of our needs turning on the heater before we got on so we wouldn't be cold. Don't miss Lake Louise and Lake Moraine. They're beautiful! Shame that it was so crowded but we enjoyed them after all.
