The tour guide, Kenneth, was friendly and caring. He walked up to the Peyto Lake view point with us. He could have taken a break at each stop. He even drove back and turned his van around because we spotted bears in the wood along the highway.

Our tour guide, Boyd, is perfect. The journey he brought us is really comfortable and relax. You just need to follow his steps and you will see the great view and experience the ice field. The ride is also smooth and he shares some stories and hostory about the mountains, banff park and his knowledge of the local natural environment. It is worth to join and experience the banff with this program and local operator.

We had a very enjoyable tour yesterday. The whole experience was comfortable, with a relaxed pace and enough time to explore all the places we wanted to visit. Our tour guide York was professional and not overly talkative, which made the trip feel pleasant and stress-free. Overall, it was a well-organised and comfortable tour that we really enjoyed!

The tour was great! The tour guide also gave detailed explanations. It is recommended that the morning pickup point in Canmore be arranged closer to the downtown area. Also, the time at the Columbia Icefield at the end felt a bit rushed; we hope the time there can be extended a little bit!

The tour was exceptional, especially because we get to experience the Columbia Icefield Adventure. Jesse was a fantastic guide. He made us feel safe and comfortable throughout the entire tour, guiding us confidently through both sunshine and snow. His knowledge and passion truly made the experience even more memorable. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide to the incredible adventure!

The travel agency will email detailed information the day before the trip and can pre-book tickets for the Ice Explorer and Skywalk (adults CAD$130, teenagers CAD$90). Our tour guide, Jesse, is from Hong Kong and speaks Mandarin, Taiwanese Hokkien, Cantonese, and English. The itinerary was perfectly planned, with ample time at each attraction. Along the way, he introduced sights and told stories, and even provided bottled water and small cookies. Since it was a small bus, there weren't many people, and all the group members happened to be foreigners who were punctual and arrived early, so there were no delays to the schedule. The only minor drawback was that the seats on the small bus were a bit hard and the legroom was limited, which made long journeys a bit uncomfortable. Other than that, everything was wonderful!

Jacky was our tour guide, he was very friendly and informative on the fun facts along the drive, and he even helped us for pictures or getting around the lake stops. The itinerary was great, although my only suggestion would be to have some more time for the Columbia Icefield stop as we only got about 3h, however with the Icewalk itself taking about 2h (including waiting for the buses), we only had ~15mins to spend at the Skywalk and didnt have time at all for the discovery centre, but thats more on the Columbia icefields logistics as their buses take a while (so not the actual tour here). If we were allowed maybe an extra hour it wouldve been even better. Overall still a 10/10 experience and one of the top highlights of my sister and I's trip, will definitely do it again and I highly recommend Jacky as he was a superb tour guide!

We had a wonderful tour along the Icefields Parkway, with stops at Bow Lake and Peyto Lake. The drive itself was absolutely spectacular, with incredible mountain scenery, glaciers, and beautiful landscapes the entire way. Bow Lake was especially stunning and one of the highlights of the trip. Unfortunately, we couldn't enjoy the view at Peyto Lake because it was raining, but that's just part of nature and gives us a great reason to come back again. A special thank you to our tour guide, Michael, who made the experience even better. He was so funny, friendly, and incredibly informative, sharing interesting facts and stories throughout the journey. His sense of humor kept everyone entertained, and he made the long drive enjoyable from start to finish. We had a fantastic time and would highly recommend this tour!
