“William was an absolutely outstanding tour guide — truly above and beyond in every way. He was incredibly efficient, knowledgeable, and made the entire day seamless and enjoyable from start to finish. What really set William apart was his thoughtfulness and care. He went the extra mile by providing snacks for the journey, drinks, and even hand warmers, which was so appreciated in the cold and made us feel genuinely looked after. One of the most special moments of our lives happened on this tour — my now fiancé proposed at one of the stops — and William was amazing. He kindly took the most beautiful engagement photos/videos for us,…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 78 reviews · 1 to 4 days (approx.) · from $287

Two days at Calgary Stampede with reserved rodeo seats, evening show, Skyride tickets, hat and tote, plus Elbow River Camp.

“We enjoyed our brief stay in Calgary and were impressed with the spirit of the people and the recovery from the flood. We attended a Sat. (July 8) evening session of the rodeo and were disappointed that the only rodeo event was the chuckwagon races (which we enjoyed), but no other rodeo events. When we purchased our tickets on-line we were aware of the other event times on that day, but no description of the events at those times were given. No being familiar with the rodeo schedule left us somewhat disappointed. The "show" that evening was amazing and our grandchildren really enjoyed it.”

This tour is good for the people who dosen’t wish to drive and see a lot of places in short Times. Only downside is you can’t stay to enjoy the breathtaking views as long as you want. All the attractions had a certain time to visit and we had to rush every time to go back to the bus on time. It will be nice to add…”
