The Top of the World tour was amazing! Wayne did not disappoint and exceeded our expectations! He was so knowledgeable about the park, the animals, and the flora/fauna. He made it a great 4+ hour trip around the park! We had our three kids (11, 9, 4) and they enjoyed it too! The whole next day we all kept saying “What would Wayne say” exploring the park again! Memorable for sure.
Beautiful scenery

We had a great time. We traveled on roads we would not have driven on! Jay our guide was great. I would recommend this your tour to see the park where you can sit back in comfortable seats and dial in the views.

Our guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. Amazing views all along the trip. We were able to see a moose which I understand is fairly rare.
