Fantastic trip from Jasper down the beautiful Icefields parkway. Although it was a long day, our guide Aloo made sure we had plenty of stops to break up the journey. He also struck the perfect balance between providing commentary and giving people a break. He was an extremely personable and organised host and probably our favourite guide of our whole trip (and we have taken a lot of tours over the last 3 weeks!). The bus was comfortable and we had snacks, drinks and lunch on board. The visit to the glacier and skywalk were fun although it was a bit of a faff taking different buses but that wasn't down to Sundog who provided first class door to door service.

A great trip to the ice fields
This was a wonderful experience. Shawn, our guide, shared so much wonderful information. We especially appreciated his personal account of the fire in Jasper. He was very personable and encouraged questions. Our lunch was delicious. We appreciated his driving skills.

A Driver-Guide Who Truly Cared About Every Passenger
On July 22, we joined the Banff to Jasper Sightseeing Glacier Adventure with Sundog Tours, and what impressed us most was not only the spectacular scenery, but also the exceptional professionalism and kindness of our driver-guide.
At every pickup and drop-off stop, he personally helped passengers load and unload their luggage. For elderly guests and families traveling with young children, he went even further by walking to their hotels to collect their luggage before departure and delivering it to their hotels upon arrival. This level of care went far beyond what we would normally expect and demonstrated a genuine commitment to every passenger.
Throughout the day, he clearly explained the schedule at each sightseeing stop, including how much time we had, where to meet, and important safety information. His instructions were always patient and easy to understand.
What impressed us most was the extra attention he gave to guests whose first language was not English. Instead of simply making announcements to the whole group, he took the time to speak with them individually, making sure they understood the instructions and asking whether they had any questions. He wanted to ensure that every passenger felt comfortable, informed, and safe.
It is rare to meet someone who performs their job with such professionalism, patience, and genuine care. Our driver-guide did far more than transport us between destinations—he made every passenger feel welcome and looked after throughout the entire journey.
This was one of the most memorable tour experiences of our trip to the Canadian Rockies. Thank you, Sundog Tours, for having such an outstanding driver-guide on your team.
