Great tour! Clear and timely communication in advance and an insightful tour with key historic and cultural points noted. A steady pace and relaxing vibe which is great for asking questions and stopping for photo opportunities. A fantastic intro Banff and would highly recommend!

How lucky were we! We were the only 2 on the walking tour with Erin today at 11.30. We had the most amazing, informative 2 hours which included a drink and sweet treat of our choice. Can only recommend this to anyone visiting Banff. We had been here a few days already but learnt so much more.

We learned a lot and we had a great time. There was no wildlife spotted on the tour, but we heard all about a grizzly bear they call Boss. As part of the tour we got a local soda and then our choice of a sweet treat at the end of the tour. Afterwards, we ate some really good pizza at a recommended restaurant.

Erin was so friendly and informative. She lives local and was able to answer all of our questions. The drink and treat are so yummy! Highly recommend if you want some really good history of Banff. I now fully understand how the national park came to be!

We had the most wonderful couple of hours with Erin in Banff. We learned so much regarding the history, current town activities and anecdotes. Erin's knowledge is vast. Well planned and organised. The drink and sweet treats offered from local businesses was a bonus. We would thoroughly recommend this trip to enhance any stay in Banff

I completed the walking tour in March with some buddies and it was a blast. The tour guides are very knowledgeable and fun, and we saw some beautiful views. The food and drinks were also super good. Would definitely recommend if you’re going on a trip to the mountains with friends
