Excellent overview of West Glacier, with wonderful highlights along the drive! - We took our adult son & his wife with us on this trip to Glacier National Park. We all enjoyed the day with Justin, hearing great tales & information about Glacier. He also advised us about hikes for the next two days. We highly recommend this tour!

Amazing Trip - Awesome experience! Michael was a great guide! Got to see some fantastic views and walk around and see some of the shops and popular areas of the park. Definitely recommend Tour Glacier if you’re wanting to learn more about the park, have a relaxing trip, and enjoy the amazing scenery.

West Glacier Tour - We arrived in Whitefish Montana and wanted to see West Glacier National Park. We searched tours for that area and Viator offered a tour for a reasonable price. The tour included pickup at your location, entry into the park, visits to Apgar Village, Belton Bridge, part of the Road to the Sun, Lake McDonald and Lake McDonald Lodge, Polebridge Mercantile and a very good lunch at that same location. We also stopped at Hungary Horse Dam on our way back. It was great to have someone else do the driving and our guide, Michael, was great. There were 9 of us on the tour and he answered all of our questions. He provided very informative information about the park and the areas we visited. Unfortunately, there was quite a long line of vehicles just entering the park. Michael spent more time than usual showing us the sights, and we felt that we got more than our monies worth of sightseeing and information. Great tour.

Glacier a la Michael!! - Driver was well versed on all points of tour as well as local and State facts. Very pleasant. Company provided picnic lunch was very good with lots of options. We were not crowded or pushed for time. Thank you Michael for a great tour and experience.

A wonderful day in Glacier National Park - We scheduled this private tour through the west side of Glacier National Park through Viator with Tour Glacier and there was a glitch and our reservation did not get to the company. When I called the day before to clarify our pick-up details, the company did not have our reservation and were completely booked, like most tour companies in the area. Rather than turning us away, the company made special arrangements and accommodated our tour and still gave us the full experience, including lunch at a lovely picnic area by a lake. The owner of the tour company drove us himself, and he had great information about the areas we visited. We truly enjoyed the tour and two small hikes. I would highly recommend Tour Glacier!

NOT WORTH the $$$. NOT recommemded. - You charged me $490.00 for a tour from 9:40a.m. to 2:30 p.m.
The bus was so full we couldn't sit comfortably (overbooked).
We were promised to go to a Huckleberry patch. We were dropped off before we went to the patch.
The guide gave us lots of information but it was disjointed and he jumped around a lot.
We would have been happier bringing our own lunch. The provided lunch wasn't that great.
We took a tour the next day at less than half of this price...not a red bus... and it was MUCH better!
I'm angry about the $490.00. This was WAY overpriced.
