5.00Ray was wonderful. He told us all about the area, and we stopped at a couple beautiful bonus photo opportunities. We had a senior in our group who struggled on the hike up to Peyto Lake, so the expectation of elevation & difficulty could have been better but she made it & loved it. I highly recommend this tour to anyone, it was a fabulous, beautiful day!
A must do experience

5.00Oh, it was amazing, beautiful creation of our One True God on display! Endless mountains that signify God's power. Lord willing, we'll come back for the Abraham Lake Bubbles around Dec 1 to 10. Our driver and tour guide, Sir Kenneth is the best and very knowledgeable of not only the different places and mountains that we pass by but as well as the bears and other wild animals in the area. He touched our hearts when he offered to take a beautiful technique of taking video and pictures with me and my husband at Abraham Lake. He was so very helpful, and I truly appreciate it as I dealing with cancer and rheumatoid arthritis. He made my husband feel appreciated as well. Salute to Sir Kenneth 🙏 He is a good driver 👏
Unforgettable experience!
