Excellent experience!

This was an excellent tour. Jake picked us up at our hotel right on time. We saw grizzly bears, elk, a moose, and a couple of mule deer which I think was pretty unusual. Jake provided lots of fascinating information about the area and the 2024 fire. The scenery on the boat tour on Maligne Lake to Spirit Island was breathtaking. The guide, Alex, was fun and interesting. It was a great day!
