5.00Wonderful tour with amazing views. Aashish is a kind, patient, informative guide. He was available and very willing to take pictures at each stop. We are senior citizens and would not have been able to accomplish The Peyto Lake Trail had it not been for the crampons and physical support Aashish provided. It was definitely worth the effort

1.00The tour was completely changed without notification. Had to do tours that I had done the prior days. This wasted an entire day of my vacation. If notified we would have cancelled and book a different tour.

1.00Bus showed up late, then told us that they wouldn’t be taking us to the listed areas in the itinerary. The guide had a thick accent and didn’t seem to actually know what he was talking about & kept repeating himself.
Amazing
