A great whistle stop tour of the rockies! - I had an amazing time on this trip! We managed to see SO MUCH in such a short amount of time! Hunter was amazing making sure we had regular breaks and view stop offs and was a great guide! The overnight stay at rampart creek was a real highlight and a really great way to get to know the group! The only sad point was that we had been given old schedules that said we would be doing more in the last few days and it was a shame not to do that! However, Hunter took us to lots of quirky local spots and we still had an enjoyable last couple of days! Would definitely recommend!

Great tour for solo travelers! - Highly recommend for solo travelers! Everyone in our group was solo and by the end we all were close friends. I was worried about joining the tour midway through, but the guides (Lee + Dayton) and other travelers made me feel included. I loved the small bus and tour size (we were around 16 people) because it felt like a group of friends on a road trip where we could make our own decisions about what we wanted to see and do (while also still feeling organized!) My favorite part of the trip was the Banff to Jasper drive along the Icefields Parkway to the overnight in the wilderness hostel, and then the Columbia Icefield the next day. Don't miss those days of the trip if you can! (I think this section is the Athabasca tour--if you only have time for a short trip, that's the one I'd recommend). The scenery was amazing and the night out by the campfire playing guitar and making s'mores was the best! There was a good mix of organized activities and also time to go off on our own and do our own thing. I liked that I didn't have to stay with the tour the whole time and could walk at my own pace/eat where I wanted while also having the choice to join for group dinners and activities when I wanted. The tour group skewed younger, I think ranging from 22-30ish and were all international. Typical hostel dorm rooms for accommodations, so bring a lock for your locker if you plan on bringing anything expensive since sometimes we were mixed in a room with people not on the tour. Nothing super fancy, but everything was clean and nice enough! I had so much fun! Thanks, Moose!
