3.00Scenery was undescribably beautiful. The tour info stated the tour would be in English. It was a bilingual tour, half in English and half in Chinese. The tour guide spoke broken English and was difficult to understand. So I wasn't always sure what we were seeing, but it was very beautiful!

2.00The tour included stops at Emerald Lake, Horse Kick, Lake Moraine, and Lake Louise, but unfortunately it felt very rushed. The guide was friendly and pleasant, but the schedule did not allow enough time to actually enjoy the locations. At Emerald Lake, we barely had time to take a few pictures before being rushed back onto the bus. The same thing happened at Horse Kick, just enough time for quick photos and no chance to walk around. The lunch stop wasn’t a great experience either, though we did manage a short walk and a couple of photos. After the lunch stop, we headed to Lake Moraine, but were denied entry at that time and had return for a 40 minute visit at this location. Before returning to lake Moraine, we arrived at Lake Louise, where we had about an hour and a half, which was the longest stop of the day, but even that still felt rushed. Overall, this tour is not worth the money if you’re hoping to really experience the scenery, take your time, or soak in the views. I would not recommend it, you’re better off driving yourself, which would not only be cheaper but also give you the flexibility to spend as much time as you like at each stop.

5.00The day tour schedule was well planned. Each destination was allocated sufficient time. Driver/guide arrived on time, he was friendly and provided us with a lot of information on points of interest along the way and at each destination. He provided hints to best use the time at each destination. He was a safe driver too. Our day was perfect.
