Beautiful sights and stories - This was an amazing hiking tour. The scenery was gorgeous. I did this with my parents and our guide was Ben. Ben was friendly, fun, and really knowledgeable. He was also well prepared for the outdoors, which made us feel safe and confident. We got a great history lesson about the area throughout the hike. The cave paintings were really special to see. 1000% recommend this tour and ask for Ben!

Great hike - Our guide was great and provided lots of good information. He made it interesting and fun. Although we couldn’t go to the planned hiking destination (due to the ice melting, it made the trail unsafe) he offered either a full refund or another great hiking location. Of course we took him up on the other location and it was great.

Magical experience. - The experience of getting to know the Rocky Mountains was incredible, Canmore is a beautiful town. The weather was perfect for hiking and visiting Lake Louis and Banff.

Great family hike in the canyon - The whole family including three teenage sons really enjoyed the trip (my sons normally hate walking). Jacob was a great guide. We loved the tales as well as the trail. Highly recommend.

flexible guide - We booked Canyons and Cave Paintings, but on the day of our tour our guide, Jacob, gave us an option to change the location. The weather was not ideal for the canyon and there was another location we could go to that would have better conditions. He left it up to us to decided which hike to do. We went for the alternate location, which was an abandoned mining town. We heard about the mining history of the town, walked down a trail that was once the main street, and came across remnants of the past inhabitants. We did several walks with this company and all were great. The humor and knowledge of Jacob combined with flexibility make them great to tour with.

Amazing Canyon Hike - Booked a guided hike as a birthday present for my fiancé. Neither of us are expert hikers but Jacob made the experience very comfortable and fun. He was very knowledgeable about the area and it’s history and a really great guide overall! Hoping to come back for another tour in the summer.

Nice adventure! - We went has a family and Jacob was a great lead during the hike and very knowledgeable. The view throughout the trail is magical, we walked through the narrow-walled creek bed and did many twist and turns. We saw a beautiful waterfall. We learned a lot with Jacob, and he shared many interesting stories with us. The boys loved the cave. We had to wear cleats because of the ice and the equipment was great. I would recommend to everyone!! Natali Levasseur
