Victoria Glacier Tours

This was an exceptional tour. Our guide Harry and our driver ( I believe his name was Gerald) were very knowledgable and informative. The tour was great! The bus was well maintained and clean and it made the tour so comfortable. I would highly recommend Brewster.

Nolan and Gerald tag teamed telling us about the culture, sites and activities we would be doing. They made a great team. Peyto Lake was beautiful first thing in the morning. We learned how glaciers help produce the vivid blue in the lakes around them. Next we went to the Skywalk which provided great views of glaciers, waterfalls and the rugged terrain below that mountain goats and big horn sheep frequent. It was great being on the bus because buses park right next to the entrance while car riders must be transported to the site. We walked right in and had our bus waiting for us once we we done. The buffet style lunch had a great variety of food and was extremely well organized to handle busloads of people. The photography in the visitor Center below was exceptional. We then were driven to the ice explorer which took us straight out o to the glacier. The views were breathtaking. We had plenty of time to walk around in safe zones and get all the pictures we wanted. As a bonus, we even saw a large black bear along the road on our way home and paused for a brief moment for photos out the window. Again, being on the tour bus allowed us to see more because of the up front parking passenger buses are given at all the sites. Well worth the tour.

The Mountains, Lakes & Waterfalls trip was a full on day, lots of stops and so much to see - but such a worthwhile trip!We went on Tuesday, 8th Sept, our Driver was Richard and guide was Eleanor.Both Richard and Eleanor were full of expert knowledge on the local area, pointing out the most famous mountains and their history. We visited three lakes in total, Lake Louise, Lake Moraine and Emerald Lake. All very different and unique in their own right. The waterfalls were amazing, we visited a couple which again were so different, one with great height which was a perfect backdrop for a selfie!, the other was on a much smaller scale.We stopped for a nice buffet lunch at Emerald Lake which was included, and delicious it was!Another really great day out, thanks again Brewster Sightseeing Tours for making it fun, we learnt lots also.

The highlight of our entire trip to the Rockies! We had such an amazing time on this tour - breathtaking views of some Canada’s best lakes and mountains. Our guide Nolan and driver Carson made our experience even better with their impressive knowledge of each location and super friendly service. They were funny and shared some great stories and anecdotes. We saw 3 bears and a deer on this tour too which was amazing. We would have loved to have a little more time at Lake Louise but you get to fit so much in in one day. We would 100% recommend this tour as an easy way to see Lake Louise, Lake Moraine, Emerald Lake and Takakkaw Falls! No matter how long your stay in Banff is, this is a must!

The moment that stuck with me wasn’t the waterfall itself… it was sitting on a sun-warmed rock, tea in hand, watching the mist drift upward like slow breath. The sound was less a crash and more a deep, steady heartbeat. I remember thinking, this is the kind of quiet you carry home with you.Hicham, our driver, picked me up just after sunrise from my riad in Marrakech. He greeted me with a gentle “Bonjour, ready?” and a smile that could melt the morning chill. On the way, we passed dusty switchbacks that curled through wheat fields, small Berber houses tucked into ochre hills, and a herd of goats stubbornly claiming the road until Hicham coaxed them aside with a laugh.Our guide, Fatima, led us down the trail toward the Ouzoud Waterfalls. The path was a weave of stone steps and shaded forest, dappled sunlight falling on the backs of monkeys darting between trees. I nearly lost my footing on a damp patch, catching myself with a laugh, and Fatima winked as if to say, it happens to everyone. The reward came moments later — the first glimpse of the falls, a white curtain spilling into a pool wrapped in green.Lunch at the bottom was served on clay plates: slow-cooked tajine, steam curling up from tender lamb and apricots, and mint tea poured high so it foamed in the glass. The river splashed nearby, monkeys prowled with playful mischief, and Fatima told stories of her childhood here. I didn’t want to leave this spot.Later, we climbed aboard a small wooden boat that edged under the falls. The mist struck my back in cool bursts while the driver’s voice echoed off the cliffs. Looking up, I felt impossibly small beneath the weight of so much water, so much time.The ride back to Marrakech was quiet, the cliffs blushing with sunset. I dozed, waking only when Hicham softly chuckled, “You slept well.” Outside, the world was slipping into night, but I still felt the rhythm of the falls in my chest.The marrakech to ouzoud experience is more than a trip — it’s a feeling.If you like, I can also create two more variations with different traveler profiles so you have options for posting.

It was a wonderful trip. Our tour guide Freeman was fantastic he gave as information on the history of the places and mountains. Nolan our coach driver is also great, he made sure of our safety during the trip.

Very good experience. We feel guided and accompanied POR the way. But it's time to be physically prepared. The road ES going up all the time. For people with health problems DE NO recommendable ES. But the app worked very well! The only suggestion ES that they make audios EN different languages, including Spanish. Thank you.

It was amazing and exciting with Hana and James. They were very knowledgeable and were there to explain any questions along the way. Tour was kept on schedule time , lunch was served buffet style, lots of choices. The bus was air-conditioned and comfortable. It was worth every penny !

An informative, fun and a great trip! We were on the Ice field Discovery Tour on Monday, 7th Sept, with driver Brad and guide Aaron. What a jam packed day it was too. Both Brad and Aaron were fantastic hosts, really knowledgeable, and had great humour, which made for a fantastic trip.As we had ample time we also got to visit various other stops along the way. Including some time at Lake Louise whilst picking up some additional passengers, Lake Peyto and Waterfallow Lake. The trip included the Skywalk which was rather scary but so pleased I did it. Before heading out onto the icefield we had a hot buffet lunch which was excellent. The icefield is really something special, the glacier is fascinating, the icefield guide (Chris) was again very knowledgable, and we had about 30 minutes up there, so plenty of time to walk around (watch out for the caution signs re holes in the ice!) and to take pictures.Ps. The coffee/water and cookie stop en route was a nice touch. A very welcoming refreshment.Thanks both for making it such a fun trip!

Fab trip from lake Louise to jasper. Driver Richard is fantastic. Level of knowledge is off the charts. Host Talli was fantastic and the snack station she set up at the last stop was a great bonus. Can’t recommend highly enough

This is an absolute must do, no worries about Parking, you get loads of information and jokes. You get to see Morraine, Emerald and Louise Lakes. The Takakkaw Falls are a must and the Buffet lunch provided at Emerald lake was delicious. So much to see and do. Great thanks to Nolan and our brilliant coach driver.

We all had a great day on the tour with Emily and Ben. The scenery was as spectacular as expected. The icing on the cake was the excellent meal we had at Emerald Lake, Emily's help and guidance and Ben's wonderfully listenable descriptions and storytelling. Definitely recommended!

Did this tour yesterday on Bus 343 with Tom and Bree, one of the best days ever from start to finish Tim fantastic driver with a lot of local knowledge Bree fantastic host and story teller can highly recommend Brewster tours bit Tim and Bree are a must

We had a fantastic day on the Columbia Icefield Tour with Brewster! Brad and Aaron were both wonderful—friendly, knowledgeable, entertaining, and great at keeping the day running smoothly. While they weren’t locals, they clearly knew the area extremely well and shared plenty of interesting information along the way.The tour itself was very well organized and truly included everything we needed for a full day of exploring. Water, snacks, and lunch were all provided, which made the experience incredibly easy and convenient. The itinerary was packed with spectacular scenery and, of course, experiencing the Columbia Icefield and Glacier Skywalk was unforgettable.Even though it’s a long day, everything was paced well and we never felt like we had to worry about logistics. We could simply sit back, enjoy the incredible views, and experience the Icefields Parkway.Brad and Aaron helped make an already beautiful day even better. If you’re visiting Banff and want to experience the Columbia Icefield without worrying about driving, parking, meals, or planning all the details yourself, this tour is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!

The activity itself is amazing! The ride to the Icefield is smooth, with gorgeous scenery and views along the way. Peyton lake, Skywalk and Athabasca glacier walk were all awesome experience, a must when in Banff! It was very nice that the tour included snack, and lunch, since we were pick up early , not to line up to buy food! ! The only downfall is too many pick up stops fr Banff to Lake Louise! Otherwise, thumbs up both to Thalia ( host) and Thomas( driver) for wonderful service!!

Choose this efficient, informative and comfortable tour! Nolan our main guide and Gerald our driver gave fantastic explanations of each of our stops. They took turns explaining the history and landmarks of the area as we drove along the Icefield Parkway to our destinations. Nolan took extra time answering questions and he took great pride in taking beautiful pictures of our family. The tour arrived on time at the Moose hotel as advertised. The bus was very clean and Nolan always made sure we had water. Each stops were absolutely spectacular . Peyto Lake and Lake Louis were both breathtaking. The Columbia Icefield Discovery Center had several informative exhibits, gift shops, clean restrooms, a beautiful deck and a delicious buffet lunch that was included. We boarded the enormous Ice Explorers and ventured onto the awesome Athabasca Glacier. We spent plenty of time on the glacier and we drank the 10,000 year old glacial water. It was not crowded on the glacier and we had lots of room. Getting on the sky walk was can make you feel a little dizzy, because the view from the platform are tremendous. We saw sites that we will never forget. It was well worth the price because the meals, bus, Ice Explorer were all included. Our family learned a lot from Nolan & Gerald, and we are very grateful to them! Choose this tour!
