We loved having Jake as our guide. He took us from Banff to Jasper and knew all the cool fabulous places to stop for pictures and special places. We caught videos of trains in the S curve near Athabasca falls and one doing the upper and lower tunnels. He knew the answers to all our questions and was just a delight. From the Banff gondola to the wildlife, Icefields and waterfalls, he was great as a guide.

We were fortunate enough to spend three days touring Jasper National Park, Lake Louise, Banff and all the incredible places in between with Delano Paquin-Mannington, before boarding the Rocky Mountaineer, and we couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide. Del was exceptionally generous with his time and knowledge, sharing fascinating insights about the local area, its history, wildlife, flora, trees and natural environment. His passion for the region was evident throughout the trip and added so much depth to every stop we made. He took us to numerous beautiful locations, each offering stunning colours, spectacular scenery and truly inspiring views. One of the absolute highlights was seeing a black bear and her three cubs – an unforgettable experience that we will treasure forever. What made Del particularly special was his ability to balance professionalism with a relaxed and friendly approach. He was thoughtful and considerate towards all six members of our group, ensuring everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves. He was also funny, charming and great company, making every day both enjoyable and memorable. We were belatedly celebrating our nephew’s birthday, and Del played a huge part in making it feel like a truly special occasion. His sense of fun, attention to detail and genuine care helped create memories that will stay with us always. Del completely made our trip. We cannot thank him enough for three wonderful days and would recommend him without hesitation to anyone looking for an exceptional guide in the Jasper, Lake Louise and Banff area.

We spent several days in Kamloops, Jasper, and Banff on tours arranged for Alberta Blue Sky Tours. We spent the time with their guides Jake and Duncan, and I can’t heap enough praise on them for the knowledge of that part of Canada. They knew the history, geology, flora, fauna, native people and even provided excellent recommendations for dining. I would not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone visiting the area and desiring to maximize their experience.

The best way to see the Banff area. We spent the past two days with Duncan touring the Banff area and points West. Beyond the fact that Duncan has an encyclopedic knowledge of this area, and all of Western Canada, the scenery is spectacular, and he knows all the best spots for pictures. I highly recommend Alberta Blue, and their guides.

In praise of Alberta Blue Sky Tours: We traveled with Blue Sky for 4 days following our Rocky Mountaineer trip last month. Everyone we dealt with was so friendly and helpful! As we watched other groups disembarking their large coach buses, we were so grateful that we had chosen the small group size (8-10 people) and individualized tours we received with Blue Sky. It was wonderful to have our guide tailor our tour stops and narration according to the composition and interests of the group he had each day. We would not have experienced that on a coach bus. Kudos to Blue Sky! In praise of our Blue Sky tour guide—Delano (Del): There aren’t enough stars to rate our experiences with Del!!! He was very knowledgeable about everything he showed us, but never sounded like he was just reciting some facts. He was very personable, and a great joy to travel with. He clearly went out of his way to learn about each of us in the group and the things that interested us—so that he could then connect us with facts and stories along the way. He paid attention to each person’s needs and limitations and accommodated at each stop accordingly. Those who wanted time for exploring got that, and those of us who needed a more gentle experience got lots of focused attention from Del. He made the whole experience FUN!!! What an asset to Alberta Blue Sky!!!

Our experience was absolutely amazing. Delano was a great tour guide. He kept us informed as we traveled throughout the day and even adjusted the route a bit to avoid the rain. The sights were beautiful and we would highly recommend!

We did 4 x day tours from Jasper to Banff and surrounds with Del. We would rate him as one the best guides, if not the best guide that we have had in all our travels. His passion for and knowledge of the history of the Canadian Rockies was outstanding and he was able to communicate this to us in a way that made us want to know more. He was able to answer our questions and anything he didn't know he researched and found the answers. To our delight we were able to stop and observe bears, elk, bald eagles and duelling mountain sheep. Moose however eluded us! Del's organisation and forethought made our experience all the more enjoyable.

I have been on numerous tours over my years of travel. But Duncan’s tour with Alberta Blue Sky tours ranks as one of the best! Professional, personable, and punctual, Duncan showed us the sights around Banff. He was knowledgeable in everything from flora to fauna to places to eat to Canadian history. We saw a myriad of animals, even viewing female Big Horned Sheep at the Banff overlook. A 10 out of 10! Thank you, Duncan!
