    Beautiful trip coupled with area history and discussion of local ecology and wildlife. Very comprehensive. Also left time for quiet reflection time on the lake.

    I’m terrified of heights but I’m so glad I booked the gondola! It was so worth the fear of riding up!!! Once you get to the top there’s a nice hike to the summit where I felt very safe. The ride down was a breeze. The Lake Minnewanka boat cruise was very relaxing and informative! Mackenzie was an amazing tour guide! Kudos to our Captain!
