A great fall hike! - Ben was a knowledgeable and engaging guide, and we thoroughly enjoyed the hike that began at the Banff Gate Mountain resort and ended up in a stunning mountain meadow surrounded by mountains on 3 sides. Ben did a great job pointing out the local flora (we didn't see much fauna) along with their ecological and historical importance. He also emphasized safety (e.g., make sure you have bear spray, especially during the fall season), and that hiking should above all, be fun! Thanks, Ben!

Guide made all the difference - Ben was amazing. The hike with the gorgeous scenery was worth the price alone but his knowledge about the plants and trees along with the history of the area made it all the more memorable. Thanks again Ben !

True Alberta wilderness - Jacob was an excellent guide who captured our interest with his expertise and stories. We thoroughly enjoyed the scenery, and definitely felt like we were on trails less travelled. Although we didn’t see any wildlife, Jacob pointed out many visible signs of bear or cougar activity.

MUST BOOK TOUR EXPERIENCE - 10/10 recommend this tour!!! Jacob knows so much about the area and was flexible on the day of to take us to different spots to make sure we had the best time possible! It was a small group (me, my fiancé, one other person) and we had a fantastic time!!! It was BEAUTIFUL weather (we went in march). Jacob had ice cleats for us to use because the weather was just cold enough that we would need them (and they came in handy!) I can't wait to come back in the summer and take another tour and see how different it looks! Do yourself a favor and book this tour!!! It's a guaranteed great time! He also has deals with local companies and gives you coupon codes... and those were also fantastic recs to eat!

Great Hikes - Our tour guide, Jacob, was unbelievably knowledgable about all of the nature around us as well as the history and general Banff advice. We got unlucky and did not see any significant wildlife, and even so had an incredible experience on his Wilderness & Wildlife Tour. I highly recommend this tour, especially if he is running it. We went on an extremely busy day and he took us on beautiful hikes in undiscovered areas.

Great guide and nice walk but route unexciting and no wildlife at all! - Great guide and pleasant hike but nothing special. Really surprised no wildlife at all, not even birds! Low level so no real views but guide was knowledgeable and made quite a dull walk much more interesting.
