The tour was very nice. We saw a lot of beautiful places. The price for transportation, park entries, and drinking water from the guide was all-inclusive, so it was a great deal. The tour guide Murray took great care of our safety, shared lots of interesting information during the tour, and was very friendly. He even went out of his way to bring a garment I had left in the car to my hotel, despite being off duty and it being late. The only thing that spoiled the fun was that the front seating area was way too cramped. Luckily, I got to sit up front next to the driver later, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to stand it.

Our guide Murray was more than what we could’ve expected. He was very well educated and made the drive fun and informative rather than sitting in silence. You can tell he cares about what he is talking about and cracked a few jokes along the way. The bus was great and comfortable and they supplied water. We were visiting from the east coast and being able to see as many lakes as we did was definitely worth the money. We didn’t have to worry about transportation from parking lots to the lakes or renting a car. This excursion really covered all the bases.

Murry was our tour guide and he picked up directly at our Hotel which was amazing. I love how small our group was, only 10 people. He really explain throughout the journey and on the site about the history of Canada. He gave us time in Banff to eat and shop around. Lake Louise was beautiful! Going into Banff is a must. We wore hiking boots, you don’t have to since it’s not much of a hike but if you need support for your ankles then do. You can even buy tickets ahead for the Gondola! Amazing trip will be recommending to friends and family!

My husband and I had an amazing day doing this tour! Both our driver, Dan, and our guide, Patrick, were knowledgeable and kind. Patrick was charismatic and made the trip so much more fun. He told us interesting facts about the Rockies. He showed us spots further away from other tourists and as a bonus, took amazing pictures. Would definitely recommend!

The tour was amazing, well planned and with balanced itinerary. Pick-up and drop-off at the hotel is a big advantage. I would like to thank our tourguide Sergiy for such a fantastic tour! His knowledge, enthusiasm, patience and friendly attitude made the entire experience truly memorable.
