Downtown Calgary trip
It was a fun day and educational experience. Tina did an amazing job on the tour. Time went by so quickly. Learn a lot about Calgary. Highly recommend . It was a big group. It would be better if they provided headphones since there are times we can’t hear her

There can be a little bit of walking involved if. You have mobility issues. Amount of time at each stop was just right. Our driver Ray was very good in every way always felt secure and he always explained what was going to happen at each stop.5 stars to Ray.

A memorable trip indeed
This day trip is an experience not to be missed. Our tour guide Kevin made it truly memorable. He was sincerely invested in giving us a great trip. He kept the journey interesting by sharing many personal experiences of the area as well as a lot of information about the history, economy and social context of the places we were passing through. His insights were very informative and entertaining. What was very impressive was the effort he put into the whole exercise. Totally recommend Kevin and his Banff daytrip !

Fun Drumheller Tour With Plenty of Flexibility
Raj was such an awesome tour guide. He was very informative about each sight, then dropped us off at each one and let us explore independently. I really appreciated the structure of the tour. There is a good amount of flexibility in choosing which sights to be visited so that every group member could be satisfied. Raj would drive back and forth to the minor sights and the museum so that everyone could choose what they wanted. The only critique I have is the stop at the World's Largest Dinosaur, which is purely tacky, but I guess it's popular enough for others to warrant a visit. We wanted to stay longer at the Royal Tyrell Museum, and we were able to choose the full 3 hour visit there instead of the other minor optional visits. Every other tour company offers you less time there, which is why I chose them in the first place. If you want to linger at the museum longer, book this tour!

Great rafting adventure
Jachimo was a great guide! Loved his rafting guide stories. The trip was a great adventure for me and my 2 boys ago 10 and 12. The river ran high yesterday and it was a fun, fast adventure filled with enough rapids to make it the right amount of adrenaline!

Interesting and beautiful country
Long day but worth it. Be ready to travel but once at the ice fields very interesting to see what's left and learn about it's history. Great tour guide. Very helpful and always checking on us. Didn't know we were going to the lakes as it wasn't clear when booked so more itinerary would have been nice.

Awesome day tour!!
All the places on this tour were amazing! Just not the places, but the whole route was very scenic. We spotted wildlife too!!
William, our tour guide had outstanding energy, was very patient and kind! He made the whole day even more better with his commentary and humour.

Unforgettable Honeymoon Experience
We had an absolutely unforgettable honeymoon experience, made truly magical by Louis, who served as both our exceptional tour guide and skilled driver during this special chapter of our lives. Fresh off our wedding, we were embarking on our dream post-honeymoon adventure through stunning destinations, and from the very first moment we met him, Louis’s warm, respectful demeanor put us at ease, making us feel like cherished newlyweds on the trip of a lifetime.
Louis’s encyclopedic knowledge of local history, culture, landscapes, and those hidden romantic gems brought every stop to life with captivating stories and personalized insights that deepened our connection to the places we explored. He went above and beyond, sharing tips on the best sunset viewpoints and scenic photo spots perfect for honeymoon memories, turning ordinary sights into deeply romantic, once-in-a-lifetime moments.
His impeccable punctuality kept us perfectly on schedule, ensuring we never missed a beat—from early morning departures to evening wind-downs—without ever feeling rushed, allowing plenty of time for intimate couple’s pauses and spontaneous joys. As a driver, Louis was exceptionally safe and confident, navigating winding roads and bustling areas with effortless skill while always prioritizing our comfort and safety on this celebratory journey.
We can’t recommend Louis highly enough for honeymoons or any special trip—he’s the ultimate blend of professionalism, passion, and precision. Booking this tour was one of the best decisions of our honeymoon!

This experience was...
This experience was great! Ashish picked us up on time and was very knowledgeable about the mountains and land around us. This is a great tour to do if you’re not too sure which places to go to (it hits all the main spots in Banff). It was also nice not having to worry about driving in unfamiliar territory. Thank you Ashish and company!

The badlands is a great contrast in landscape to the typical rockies tour. Very much worth doing.
The badlands is areally cool place thats worth taking the tour for. The scenery is vastly different from what you see at the rockies as a tourist. The Tyrell museum was interesting. It would be amazing for people that are more into dinosaurs. The hoodoos were the highlight for the tour. We saw some wildilfe on the way and our guid walid was kind enough to stop or turn back for us to take pictures. Walid is general very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. I also liked the trip duration. It was not too long or too short. The only negative thing in the trip for me would be the audio tour guide that would play from time to time and break up some of our conversation 🙃

Transportation not Tour
This is transportation to Lake Louise with 1.5 hr drop off and then to Morraine Lake for 1.5 dropoff. Then back to pick up site. Our driver gave great info on the way as well as some information about the trails. He was very well spoken. This package was what we were looking for. If you want to stop at Lake Louise Village, choose a different one.

One of the Best Tours
This was our first visit to Calgary. The tour was fun and interesting, and we learned a lot about the city. Our guide was knowledgeable and made the tour one of the best we’ve been on. We even took her advice on a restaurant for dinner! Five stars all around.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Surrounded by the beauty of the Rocky Mountains, Calgary is an ideal home base for visitors wanting to explore Alberta’s expansive parks. A day trip from Calgary can take you to the glacial blue waters of Lake Louise, the picturesque town of Banff, and the Columbia Icefields. In summer, the dramatic badlands landscape of Drumheller is well worth a visit on a tour, too, as you discover the dinosaur capital of the world.
