5.00The Calgary walking tour was excellent! Our guide, Chad, was very knowledgeable and shared so many interesting insights about the city. He also showed us hidden gems in downtown Calgary that we would have easily missed on our own. A fantastic way to explore the city—highly recommended!

5.00So, we actually missed the tour because jet lag threw us all off. But the crew at the office was so nice to store our luggage and loan us umbrellas and point us in the right direction to do a little self guided walking tour on a cold, rainy day.
Very nice tour
