Viator misrepresents this tour. The title says "Icefields Parkway Tour, Glaciers, Adventure & Skywalk," but the $160 payment covers only the Parkway Tour. After arriving at the Icefields we had to pay another $150 each to go on the glacier and skywalk. The actual tour is fine, but cost much more than we expected. You can actually drive by car to the glacier and skywalk and do it for free.
Inder Marok gave us a very good service. Specially, he picked us up from the hotel lobby on our request which was very helpful with our infant baby. Alongside, he has a good framing idea which helped us a lot to capture some beautiful memories which we can cherish forever.
Overall, it was a great experience.
The "Columbia Icefield Adventure" fee is not included. Even though I confirmed it was included beforehand, it wasn't in there. I decided to book an available slot last minute. There is no reply to my questions via chat or phone (voicemail).
Even at the scheduled meeting time on the day, the pickup car didn't come, and we were only able to meet after 30 minutes of contacting them. There were three meeting points: Calgary, Canmore, and Banff. I made the reservation in Calgary, and the tour company had also contacted me saying they would pick me up in Calgary. Even though the final confirmation from the tour company the day before confirmed it in Calgary, on the day of the tour, the guide apparently told me to meet them in a different town, and I almost got left behind.
The guide's explanation is minimal. Middle Eastern? Because of this, even people who are good at English may have difficulty understanding. Caution is required.
Furthermore, the tour was supposed to end around 6 PM and I was supposed to return to Calgary, but I didn't get back until 10 PM! All evening plans, such as dinner, have been changed.
While the glacier experience and seeing the various beautiful lakes at Columbia Icefield Adventure were very precious experiences, the entire tour, from the day before, meeting, during the tour, to returning, was constantly accompanied by anxiety. If possible, I recommend choosing another tour.
