Great Day out at the Badlands - Our driver and guide Henry was excellent. He showed us 7 main sights and attractions in and around the town plus going to a restaurant for lunch. Henry was friendly and courteous while giving us flexibility in times for each location. Thank you for a great day.

Wonderful day trip to the Badlands. - Wonderful day trip to the Badlands. Our guide was very friendly and helpful. Our 2 hours at the Royal Tyrell Museum was the highlight. I wish my grandchildren were with me because they would have loved it even more than I did. It was superb. The rest of the day was very good also with my favorites being the Hoo Doos and scenery of the badlands. Great tour.

Amazing first tour around Canada! - Great service! Our driver was very nice and kind and took us to very beautiful places, the history museum and the horse shoe canyon are places that you need to visit at least once in your lifetime, Me and my family are overall very satisfied with this tour.

Don’t Miss the Badlands! - Excellent day trip to the Badlands covered Tyrell’s Dinosaur Museum (best in the world), Horseshoe and Horse Thief Canyons, Hoodoos and much more. Driverseat (tour operator) went above and beyond our expectation. This is a really different day trip and well worth doing. Private transport and your own driver from Driverseat just make it even better.

Worth the money for the entire day, minor hiccups. - Had an absolutely amazing time! The only reason I gave it a 4/5 was because the driver didn't seem very familiar with the schedule or when places are open/closed. I say this because we did miss going to the mining museum. They were closing when we drove up and the driver hassled the museum guides as they were leaving for the day, which we told him not to do. They were clearly closed and it wasn't their fault and telling them "I have a van full of people wanting to go in," was awkward." The driver was a nice enough guy, but he should have run a timetable by us throughout the day to make sure we got to everything. Would still do it again, because it's worth not driving around all day back and forth from Calgary and all the other locations were fantastic.

A long day to see not much. - First looks at the horseshoe canyon were great but then the tour became repetitive. Attractions advertised in the tour description were closed on Mondays including the Dinosaur Park museum. No refreshments were provided on an 8-9hr tour so on top of the $800 plus to book it became a very expensive outing to see very little. Guide was also not very well informed.

A great taxi service! - Tour booked for 3 of us, visit to Tyrrell Dinosaurs was the highlight for us, but a rush with only 90 minutes instead of 120 minutes so very disappointed. The areas we visited were amazing and the Badlands with the different layers of time are something to see from the variety of viewpoints offered. The Hoodoos were strange, East Coulee offered history and dinosaurs seemed impossible!! Windows were obstructed with lettering so viewing and taking photos was difficult and again very disappointing. Driver very nice and friendly but not forthcoming or informative about the areas we visited - a glorified taxi service that I definitely would not recommend
