Our knowledgeable tour guide Aiden was interesting, friendly, accommodating. We hiked along the Bow River and through the forested areas as he pointed out bear scratching, identified all of the trees and vegetation, named the mountains and added some history of the area. Highly recommend! A most pleasurable tour.
Jacob led us on a great trek into the history and hidden parts of Canmore. We’ve visited the town several times over the years but this route was new to us and Jacob was very knowledgeable about the history and wildlife of the area. Just the right length and challenge as a walk for us with good company. Would thoroughly recommend.
Great few hours spent exploring off the beaten track in Canmore. Kael the guide was very good, knowledgeable, interesting and personable. Would recommend this tour and this guide.
The guide was lovely. She had a great knowledge of the area. The walk was a little steep so we stopped a few times and took in the views.
I had a great Hike with the Jacob who was the guide. Due to the time of year it was just myself booked onto this Hike but Jacob still took me out! He was very knowledgeable about the area and I would definitely do this Hike again or book more trips in the future. Thank you!
This was a great way to spend the afternoon out in the fresh air. Ben, our guide, was fabulous. We learned new things about local mountain vegetation, life in the early 1900's, and got to see remnants that were discarded when the townsfolk left. We saw a few game animals along the way and some very recent bear scat. The hike does have some steep areas to climb but they are short. Our guide gave us a moment to catch our 60 year old breaths. Whew.. Overall it was memorable and pleasant!
Ben is the best! Absolutely recommend going and going with Ben! Learned so much and appreciated Ben answering all of our Banff and Canmore questions.
Learned some fun facts and untold stories and discovered unknown trails. The guide was super friendly, flexible and knowledgeable. Looking forward to discovering more trails and interesting information next time.
The guide was absolutely amazing. Very knowledgeable and was able to provide an experience that you not be able to get on your own. Next time out we would most definitely book another excursion with Jacob.
Really great hike with beautiful views and great stories!!…. Jacob was a lot of fun … really enjoyed
It was a really fun tour! Our guide Jacob was friendly and knowledgeable, he told us about the history of the area, unique trees, traces of animals etc. I met a nice couple on the tour, we really enjoyed the group hike. It's not a short hike, but I would have enjoyed at least one more hour! I highly recommend this tour especially for solo travellers like me. This is a great way to meet people and have fun, and also learn.
Really awesome hike! Jacob is a super cool dude and looked after us during the hike. Has cool facts and a great sense of humour. Definitely coming back to do a winter hike with relatives.
Wonderful experience! Had a great morning with Jacob on our hike, we saw rutting Elk and learned about local nature and history. He was knowledgeable, easy and fun. It was an awesome experience. Highly recommend.
Our first ever guided hike tour and it was amazing. Our guide Jacob was so knowledgeable and made our experience great. Its make a difference when someone is so passionate about their job, well done Jacob....thank you! The views were spectacular.
We booked this tour for our honeymoon, we had an awesome guide Jacob that knew a ton of history about the area. He also took us to a place not even locals know about. Beautiful scenery!!!! 10/10 will book another tour with these guys!!!
Jacob was a fantastic tour guide through beautiful scenery, ending at a stunning lake and views. We never would have challenged ourselves with this hike, but our guide helped us stay safe on the trail! I would highly recommend this company for your next guided hike!
