Loved hike to Peyot Lake and Bow Summit in the snow! Every stop was beautiful. Pick up and drop off at hotel was a plus.

We had a fantastic day with Rob touring the spectacular Banff National Park. He was knowledgeable and engaging, but also knew when to just let us enjoy the spectacular views and soak up the scenery. I would definitely recommend this tour for anyone wanting to see the best of the Banff area. Thanks Rob!
