Nice walking tour - My husband and I really enjoyed our walking tour with Jamie. We learned a lot from his informed walk through the city. The tour was attended by people from several countries, which made it all the more interesting.

A memorable walk through Calgary - We enjoyed our 3 hour walk through town, Jamie, our guide, was patient and engaging offering interesting perspectives as a native Calgarian about the city and its historical development, current environment, and suggestions about venues and experiences. Our group was about 15 people and he was personable with all.

Downtown Calgary walking tour - We had an awesome tour with Daryl as our guide. We learned a lot about the history of Calgary and saw a lot of art and buildings unique to downtown history. We also got some excellent recommendations for food. We didn’t expect to love the tour as much as we did!
