Chris was a great guide,...

Published on Feb, 2025

Chris was a great guide, he pointed out sights and ensured we all had a great tour. And the additional experience of the helicopter ride was epic.

Amazing Tour from Banff to Abraham Lake and other sites!

Published on Feb, 2025

It is an amazing tour. My wife, daughter an I bought the tickets for the visiting Abraham Lake & Peyto Lake & Bow Lake. Finally, Viator arranged a special visit just for our 3 members. Besides said 3 lakes, the guider Wing is so kind and guided us to visit additional sites of Castle Mountain, Bow Fall and Surprise Corner. Abraham Lake is very cold and windy, but we finally saw the magical bubbles. Besides mentioned sites, the scenaries in No 93 highway is so beautiful. All of us enjoyed the tour. Thanks for Aviator's arrangement and Wing's kind guidance!
