5.00What an incredible day! From the moment we were picked up in Calgary, everything ran smoothly. The drive along the Icefields Parkway was filled with breathtaking scenery. The highlight for me was standing near Athabasca Falls and feeling the power of the water. Our guide shared lots of fascinating facts and stories that made the experience even more special.
