Traveler reviews
Columbia Icefields
Great experience. Enjoyed the Icefields and Glaciers. Harry and Gerald had a wonderful partnership, explaining the sceneries. We were given enough time to view the places. Harry was great serving cookies, tea and coffee after exploring Peyto Lake. Nice surprise after our walk from the lake. We had a great time. Lunch was delicious!
Once-in-a-Lifetime Glacier Adventure with the Amazing Mr. G!
Travelling along the Icefields Parkway is a bucket-list experience, and Mr. G made sure it surpassed every expectation! His driving was smooth and professional, his commentary was engaging, and his passion for the Rockies really shone through. The scenic stops along the way—Crowfoot Glacier, Bow Lake, the wolf-shaped Peyto Lake, and Waterfowl Lakes—were like postcard views brought to life. But stepping onto the Athabasca Glacier during the Columbia Icefield Adventure and looking down through the glass floor on the Skywalk were pure magic! Mr. G kept everything running seamlessly on a long, ambitious day. An absolute must-do tour when visiting Alberta!
Amazing experience! A...
Amazing experience! A must try when visiting the Rockies. Breathtaking views all the way from Calgary to Columbia icefield parkway. The tour operator was great as well.

Bucket List
This is a must do when you visit! Getting here, on its own was majestic. We stopped multiple times when heading back home to take in the awesomeness of the area. The Columbia icefield staff from entry to exit were courteous and knowledgeable! We were very lucky to have Jackson as our tour guide to the glacier. Not only was he funny, he knows how to drive that explorer! ;) The Athabasca glacier and skyway is a bucket list check!
