Perfect private tour of a winter wonderland - Came with my wife to Banff as we were searching for that true winter wonderland experience. The tour with Jerzey did not disappoint. He took us to all the beautiful parts of the area, and showed us certain parts off the beaten path as well. Jerzey was knowledgeable and friendly. Much preferred this to a larger outing with a group. We got exactly what we were looking for and couldn’t be happier. Thank you Jerzey.

Best tour of my life - Words can’t describe how much I enjoyed this tour. Jerzy was knowledgeable and passionate about the history of banff. He even catered the tour such that we managed to avoid crowds, it was truly magical. He also took really good care of me during the tour and helped to take a lot of pictures for me to keep as memory. Definitely recommend going for this tour if you’re visiting banff! You get to visit so many places in just one day and the views are incredible! The small group size also makes it more enjoyable. No regrets joining this tour, thank you jerzy once again for making my first trip to banff such an enjoyable one!

Great day trip in Banff - Jerzy is a very nice tour guide. He drove his Jeep and waited us at the pick up point on time. We went to Lake Minnewanka, Two Jack Lake, Surprise Corner, Bow Falls, Lake Louise, etc... Those places are very nice and beautiful. Jerzy introduced a lot about the lakes, the history of Banff, etc... He is a professional tour guide.
After lunch, we wanna play tubing, but tubing was not provided on that day. Jerzy proposed a new location for us immediately. We went to Yoho National Park, which is located in province of BC. Those places in Yoho are very nice too.
We enjoyed our tour so much. Therefore, we recommend you to choose Jerzy's service to experience a great day in Banff.

Best Day Ever - My husband and I booked this trip as a part of our Banff Honeymoon. We really cannot say enough good things about Jerzy and the amazing day that he provided us with this trip. First- the weather could not have been more adverse in order to see the beautiful views that he had planned for us, but we reassured him that we were so excited about the snow, as it is something that we do not get to see in our home state of Florida. Jerzy went out of his way throughout the entire day to make sure that we were comfortable and were enjoying each stop. At each location he would walk ahead of us to clear the path but still encouraged us to take our time to really take in the views that we were experiencing. He was so personable and even remembered my husband and my coffee/ hot chocolate orders that we had briefly mention in the morning. Jerzy was so easy to talk to and was so knowledgeable about each stop that we made on the journey. As I mentioned earlier, we were so excited to see and be in the snow- and he even took videos and amazing pictures of us throughout the day. It was truly perfect and we cannot wait to be back in the area to book another trip with him really soon. If you are going to the area do yourself a favor and BOOK THIS ACTIVITY.

flexible and customizable itinerary - Jerzy (the CEO) picked me up at my designated hotel in Calgary on time and was friendly from the get go. He inquired about my itinerary for my time in the Banff area and switched up the places accordingly while accounting for the best time for each scenic spot based on the time of the day. He shared a lot about the geography and the people living in the area and made the trip as comfortable as possible. He warmed up quickly and was both a great friend and a tour guide for the day.

Amazing Trip - It is an amazing trip for me. Mr Jerzy is a nice person and a good guide, he takes me to every places I should see as I only have one day trip in Banff from Peyto Lake, Bow Lake, Louise Lake, Lake Minnewanka, and Two Jack Lake. Every lake has its own beauty and unique.
He is also a great photographer, he helps me take a lot of beautiful pictures.
And the most important is I feel safe and comfortable in this trip as I am the only one who take the trip.
I recommend Mr. Jerzy and his tours to everyone visited Banff.
