Love mountain lakes and water falls!!

This tour was great, even though it overlapped with stops we had already made, the guides provided so much additional information which made it interesting. The buffet lunch was great too. My only concern was that a change in pick up time was not reflected in the app, we missed the pickup time but luckily our hotel was able to sort it out and give us a ride to the next stop.

A must do experience.

A great day of exploring some stunning scenery with Brewsters Brad and Jamie. A really informative tour with lots of interesting and relevant information provided by both Brad and Jamie. Great advice on the best photo spots and Jamie on hand to take photos too. A chilled and fun vibe. Couldn’t have asked for more. (Jamie’s mum-he’s doing fine!)

Spectacular day tour

Spectacular day out. Informative driver and guide - very entertaining - and fanntastic scenery. The bus is comfortable and everything ran dead on time.

Stunning Scenery

This was a great start to our holiday in Western Canada - the weather was amazing, the scenery outstanding and our driver and guide (Nathan and Jesse) were the perfect double act keeping us all entertained whilst providing a great insight into the local history. This is an area where brochures advertsing it do not do justice to its awe-inspiring beauty
