Great value, great trip - From pick up to drop off it was a fantastic experience. Our tour guide was Kelvin. He was enthusiastic and very helpful and friendly. Thanks to him showing us where to get the best pictures, I would have not gone to these spots. I would have missed them. My favourite spot was Lake Moraine followed by Johnston Canyon. I really liked the small group as well.

Great Experience - Had a great experience Mike from Westar, our guide was a local person and helped us learn a lot about the topography of the area. He planned the tour well and took us to spots which usually gets crowded during the day time early. This helped not only avoid the crowd but also gave us additional time to explore places. He was very accommodative of our request went a step ahead to make the trip pleasant and memorable. Thanks We star Thanks Mike!

Best tour guide in Calgary!!!! - It was an exceptional time with Mike as our tour guide and driver. Spoken languages were Chinese and English. As a non-speaking Chinese individual, Mike ensured that we did not feel left out at any point in time as his translations was excellent. I will recommend Mike 💯 to any and everyone. Thank you Mike for the experience, you’re the best!!!

Had the best time! - I traveled solo and I was impressed with the service Mike provided and in both Mandarin and English no less! He kept up constant commentary throughout the trip and made sure everyone was accounted for and having a good time. He was incredibly accommodating and I felt safe traveling solo. Thank you so much Mike!

Was so disappointed - Banff was the highlight of this tour for me, so when, in the end we only got 45minutes there, I was truly vexed. Having spent 2 hours at Lake Louise in torrential rain, an hour at Johnston canyon, over an hour at moraine Lake - all in the showers, it was dry when we arrived in Banff only to have 45 mins. Ruined the whole trip for me!
