“Awesome way to see the best of this area- if we hadn’t taken the tour we would not have been allowed into Moraine Lake as it is closed to the public. Greta did a great job of being our guide. To be honest, we were concerned about being on a 10 hour tour after driving 4 days to get to Calgary BUT it was super comfortable and we saw amazing sites.”
