My Calgary city trip today was very good and I learned a lot from my guide, Master Ann, about the history and present of Ka. His explanation was very professional, thanks to his guide. I hope to use your services later.
The tour gave us a relatively quick and interesting overview of the best of Calgary. The view from Crescent Hill was an unexpected and fun surprise.
Worst tour ever. The tour guide barely spoke English. He took us to 5 stops and said “go take pictures”. There were 3 couples on the tour. One couple left at the first stop. The other couple agreed with us that it was the Worst Tour Ever It was an expensive tour. supposed to be 4 hours and actually was 2. I am going to try and get my money back but am doubtful. This was a waste of time
We’re really sorry to hear this kind of feedback from the you. However, we would like to clarify one point regarding the tour duration. This tour was originally stated to be 3 hours, not 4 hours.

Sammie was an awesome guide. Friendly and very knowledgeable. We had a great tour with him. Saw lots of Calgary and went up Calgary Towe.
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We’re glad to hear that Sam provided a friendly and knowledgeable experience, and that you enjoyed exploring Calgary and visiting Calgary Tower. We appreciate you choosing our tour and hope to see you again soon!
This tour was an absolute joke. You are shoved into a mini van, driven to different locations and told to "meet back here in X amount of minutes. It was basically an uber ride from location to location. Don't waste your time or money.

I'd like to address some of your concerns and offer some insights into our tour structure. Our tours are designed to provide a balance between guided activities and free exploration.

Enjoyable tour. Could been better if the weather had cooperated. Calgary tower was excellent. Bridge on the river also beautiful.
The Driver was difficult to understand and did not seem particularly knowledgeable. One of our stops was the Library, which was not at all what I would have wanted to see on a sightseeing tour!

Unfortunately this was not a very good tour. The driver tried to give us a little history but minimal. Went to Peace Bridge that is under construction. Drive thru old area to see city across river. Went to Prince Island Park for 10 minutes. Went to new Library- that could have been a drive by. Going inside to hurry back to Van silly. The Tower was interesting. A lot of walking which some weren’t able to do. One tourist, I assume, sat in front seat with driver and they spoke to each other in foreign language. Van hard to get in and out of and no offer of step stool. Just all in all not that good.

Enjoyed the narrative from our guide and his enthusiasm - liked the Calgary Tower - really enjoyed the view of downtown Calgary from the overlook above the Bow River. We needed a bigger van, however, very difficult to get in and out of that small van.
The subject matter and stops on the tour were great. We were disappointed with the knowledge of the guide. He was also difficult to understand because of his native accent.

We will review our guide training processes to improve our future tours. Your input is valuable, and we hope you'll consider touring with us again to experience an enhanced journey.
