Wonderful guide - We are a family of 4 who had an amazing time today! Our guide Will was an excellent, knowledgable young man. We could not have had a better time; he made our adventure wonderful. And the lakes and surrounding areas are beyond beautiful. The only negative, and it is a big one, was finding the location where we were to meet our guide. It is buried on the website, behind 4 pages of other info. PLEASE fix this and put it on the landing page of your website for the tour, as well as on the ticket! This can really ruin the experience, it is confusing and disconcerting.

Great - Great tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable and made the tour enjoyable. I highly recommend this 3 hour tour of the two lakes, especially if you just want to see the lakes. Great amount of time at each lake and no parking/ traffic issues to deal with.

Professional access to lakes - It is a small group experience led by a knowledgeable guide. There was more information and document signing that needed to happen before getting on the van. The stops were nice to be dropped off near the entrance and guide was sensitive to the mobility needs of each passenger. Guide wax talkative and gave interesting facts and asked questions of the group. Let the travelers have freedom to enjoy the parts of the trip that they wanted to while providing structured tour to those that wanted it.

Especially liked Lake Louise - Will was fabulous! Very knowledgeable and had great stories and humor, as well. Sorry he had to wait to join us at Moraine Lake because of the lack of parking spots. Tour is better with him.

Beautiful stunning scenery, not strenuous, 3 hours - Rode in sprinter van with air. Great guided history. Lines to get up to the lakes due to lots of tourists In peak season. Worth the entry to lake moraine. Ran short of time at lake Louise. Bring your own water.

Colin had a wealth of... - Colin had a wealth of information. He was patient with our group of seniors. The trip to Moraine was so worth it as you cannot access it on your own.

Book elsewhere - Do not book with this company. I booked the night before for a 930am trip, they cancelled an hour before we were to meet them at the meeting point. We were only there for a day trip, so bugging could be changed. Luckily we were able to book with another company (wow bus- HIGHLY recommend) who charged us half the price of this company. Furthermore they didn't hesitate to take over $345 from my account that now I have to wait maybe another week to get back? Maybe they are better at other tours but definitely not this one. So not recommend.
