4.00Our guide Savvy was very, very good personable and knowledgeable. The Van was quite comfortable. There was only one admission fee which the guide paid for at the college museum of the north. To us, this stop was a waste of time and money. The other stops where very good with the pipeline being questionable. Tour ran about 1 hour more than advertised. All in all a good tour and a decent price worth the money.
We found the museum at...

4.00We found the museum at the college. Pretty dull. Other than that, almost everything was pretty okay. Pipeline fifty-fifty.

5.00On a cold and windy day Savvy drove and guided us through several very interesting museums, sights and shopping! Always tough trying to decide what to do when the weather eliminates all the usual adventure activities.
A beautiful time and with great company

5.00We had a wonderful time! Quentin did a fantastic job keeping us safe and was very knowledgeable. He helped us get an awesome pic by light painting us as we took each other’s photo! We also had an amazing show of dancing auroras and couldn’t be happier 💖 Would highly recommend booking with them!
