Great introduction to downtown Calgary - A great overview of the major sights in downtown Calgary as well as it's public art works both indoors and outdoors. It was interesting to hear historical details and our guide had old photographs showing what parts of the city were like before being renovated. I would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city.

Spectacular Trip of Calgary - I enjoyed my trip immensely. It helped me to understand this spectacular city a lot. I am grateful to our guide Aida who's knowledge, experience and passion for Calgary shone through her narration. In three hours, thanks to her I grasped the significant historical events that impacted growth of Calgary. More over, I also gained the orientation at the heart of this city at the different levels. I could not have attained it without her in such a short time. She shared the facts and stories with a clear, well projected voice that allowed me to take in the data and directions in a systematic way. She brought us to different places where I appreciated changing perspectives, sounds, views and temperature. She pointed at amazing art pieces. Aida took care of our group checking if we were OK throughout. Taking this tour has been a pivotal moment on my journey to discover Calgary and I recommend it to you with my all heart (though remember to wear comfortable shoes).

Good tour - The tour takes you to touristic and non-touristic places in Calgary. It is informative and lets you know more about the city. Our tour guide was really nice, knew a lot about the city but he had so many things to say that the stories would overlap and sometimes it was hard to keep up.
