We were very lucky that there were only 3 people on this tour, so it was very personal. Adelaide, our guide, and Joanne, our driver, were very friendly and welcoming and explained how our afternoon tour was planned. Adelaide was very knowledgeable about Canada, and especially Calgary and happy to answer all our questions. She also took time to ask about us and our experiences, and how we could relate to the Canadian way of life. We can thoroughly recommend this tour, especially if you have Adelaide as your guide.
