The Columbia Icefield Tour is Amazing, To go out in the special ice explorer buses was a great experience. The trip then went to the Skywalk viewing platform which is an amazing structure which makes you feel a little apprehensive at first to walk out on it. Once on the skywalk the extra view and photo opportunities are a great bonus.

Brewsters is a brilliant company running clean, well appointed vehicles and have courteous, friendly staff. We used Brewsters for airport transfers too which worked really well. The staff they employ at a desk in the Mount Royal Hotel were particularly for good service. Only issue we had was contacting the the reservations centre to confirm pick-up times and locations

The Columbia Icefield Discovery tour took us on a scenic route to Peyto Lake & Bow Lake & the Athabasca Glacier. The ride onto the glacier was an incredible experience. This trip included the Icefields skywalk & an excellent buffet lunch with amazing views. It ended with a trip to Athabasca Falls. Our icefield tour continued to Jasper to connect with the Rocky Mountaineer but you can do it as a return back to Banff. It is a long day tour but would highly recommend it.

I booked this tour - ICEFIELD PARKWAY DISCOVERY FROM JASPER - and thought it was excellent. A special thanks to Colin and Mike for their great hospitality, good humour and amazing welcome. I would happily consider another tour with them.
