Amazing experience with Monarc VIP Tours on the Icefields Parkway! Beautiful views, great service, and a very friendly and knowledgeable guide. Everything was well organized and comfortable. Highly recommend!
It was a long day but so many things were jammed packed into it that it was totally worth it. Vishal was knowledgeable and informative - we all learned a lot. An extra bonus was all the amazing pictures he took!
We spent 2 wonderful days touring the Banff, Lake Louise, and Jasper areas with Vishal and Monarc VIP tours. The scenery was breathtaking but Vishal made the trip. He knew where to go, when to go, and where to park etc… He is extremely knowledgeable and just a very pleasant tour guide. We highly recommend booking with Monarc VIP tours. We were extremely satisfied we chose a tour guide to take us around but even happier we chose Vishal.
We were very happy all the way around with our Monarc VIP private tour. They were excellent at responding & helping us plan our Icefields Parkway tour. Our guide, Jugal was excellent! He asked what worked best for us, offered options, & was great at driving & making all the stops. The van was very smooth, clean & comfortable. I was very happy we booed with them-the price was reasonable for a private tour & as many of the stops were crowded, it was SO much easier to get dropped off & get closer parking with a commercial vehicle than trying todo it ourselves. We saw so much & had an excellent day. I highly recommend this company & our guide, Jugal.
Everything was well organized, communication was excellent, and the trip was smooth from start to finish. Thank you for making our Banff vacation so memorable.
We book with Vishal and he gave us a good prize with a discount. Very appreciated. AlsoIt was a best experience in my life. They gave us extra time and extra places to visit as well as the guide. Jugal was a very good person. He explained a very well as well as he asked our choice of destination, Definitely I will refer them with my friends and family, and I would love to go again and again because there is a lot of more places to visit
Very thorough day of seeing wonderful sights. Our guide was great-very accommodating, personable and knowledgeable.
We booked our tour with Monarc VIP tour. Vishal was our tour guide for the day. He made our experience memorable. He was both professional and personable. He was informative as he provide explanations at every area that we visited and not to mention he was a great photographer as he captured our memories. My family enjoyed the day even more because of him. I would highly recommend Vishal and Monarc VIP Tours.
If you are thinking about booking a tour with Monarc don't hesitate. V did a phenomenal job! He was very patient and he made the experience smooth and enjoyable. He was very accommodating and even rearranged his schedule so he could take us to the airport last minute! He is someone who cares about what he does and it very professional!
I had an amazing experience touring Jasper and Banff with Vishal. He was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and made the entire trip both fun and informative. He went above and beyond to ensure I saw all the key spots while also sharing hidden gems along the way. His professionalism and passion for the region truly stood out. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a memorable and well-guided tour.
