Seasonal Tours

It was a fantastic experience and greart tour in lifetime. The Tour guide/ Driver Jimmi Lynn was great driver and guide.He was very helpful to everyone. We enjoyed it very much. Hotels were okay, however couple of hotels like Roadway and Red lion (**) should have been avoided. Tourist expects hitels should be at least *** or **** quality. We would highly recommend this tour to others. Thank you. Shaiful Islam & Shamim Islam

We booked our Columbia Icefield tour with Calgary Tour and our guide, Bowen, was fantastic. He is highly experienced and incredibly efficient. Despite experiencing some delays at the Icefield attraction itself, Bowen managed the timeline perfectly and got us back to our hotel exactly on time without ever making us feel rushed. The Icefield experience was great, though very crowded. My advice is to dress in layers; because of the high elevation and wind, it felt below freezing even though the valley weather was in the high 80s. Also, the glacier water is absolutely freezing if you are brave enough to touch it! Overall, the 6-hour round trip from Calgary is well worth it, especially if you want to avoid driving.

Loved this tour and our tour guide Charlie. We had to get up and do a lot of walking but we saw so many wonderful sights and we had a lot of fun in the sprinter van. It felt like a family trip with 14 people. Charlie gave us lots of history along the way and this helped pass the hours during long drives.

Solo traveler friendly! Pickup was on time, guide even helped take photos and showed a secret photo spot behind Fairmont. Van was very cold, so bring a jacket. Otherwise a perfect day trip covering gondola, lake, and canyon. Great value for money.

This was a really great experience, Banff is too beautiful to be missed. The travel guide was very knowledgeable about all the areas and this was a really smooth trip from pick up to drop off. Highly recommended.

The overall arrangement is practical and straightforward. The aurora hunting on the first night was the highlight—the guide knew the terrain well and adjusted positions based on cloud cover. The following nights were spent waiting in a cabin, which was more comfortable. The final day includes a direct transfer to the airport, so everything connects smoothly. Good for travellers who prefer not to arrange things themselves.

If your main goal is to see the aurora over multiple nights, this itinerary is well designed for that. Evenings start between 9 and 10 pm and run until around 2 am, which gives plenty of time. The cabin at the viewing site is warm and has hot drinks and snacks. During the free daytime hours, there are optional activities like dog sledding or snowmobiling if you're interested.

The structure is straightforward: daytime is kept fairly open, with the main activity being aurora viewing at night. The two-hour city tour on day two covers the essentials, including a stop at the visitor centre for the 60th-parallel certificate and a drive through Old Town. Days three and four are completely free during the day, which gives you room to plan your own time.

The coach had around thirty-something seats, the chairs reclined, and there was Wi-Fi and charging ports. For several long driving days, it was more comfortable than I expected.
