The Prairies Tours & Trips

The Canadian Rockies in winter means snow tubing at SilverStar, skating on Lake Louise when it's frozen over, and Banff exploring before campfire marshmallow roasts. Summer's different - Gastown walks, Clearwater Lake canoeing, Jasper trails, and whitewater rafting. The Prairies and Rockies region does seasons properly, and they’re both worth seeing.

Our guide Chris was amazing and he really made us all feel comfortable and looked after. He was entertaining and informative, and checked in regularly with each of us, to make sure we were getting the most we could out of the trip. And another shout-out to our driver, Yee, who got us everywhere safely and on time. The hotels were nice, breakfasts good, and we saw an awful lot of amazing sights in four days, and it was pretty well paced. My one reservation is I think the bus could have been a bit nicer. It was pretty basic—no wifi, and we were discouraged from using the toilet! Luckily we had regular bathroom stops! But all in all, I would recommend this tour, especially if you’re lucky enough to get Chris as your guide.

Tour guide was excellent. Not happy with your advertising as it really is only 5 days of sightseeing. Some hotels were a distance from places to eat.

I had a fantasy time with Timberwolf. Our guides Eren and Valentin were super enthusiastic, really accommodating and very helpful. If an obstacle arose they made sure that the group and had some great alternative hikes or activities and they came up with some great ones. The only reason it isn’t a 5 star review is that the tent equipment wasn’t really fit for purpose. They were showing a lot of wear and tare with not much ability to keep things dry if the heavens opened. The ground sheet/inner was soaking up all the moisture from the very unprotected corners. A little bit of investment in camp equipment would make this a top notch tour company.
