We all loved the itenary, Scenery,, the hotel arrangements the food and breakfast... the Tour Guide Lisa from WeStar Travel and the bus driver Daniel. There was good coordination and communication from Take Tours to us and the service provider WeStar Travel and we were well taken care off. I like the Bannf wild life tour and the guide Lui who showed us around ...took great pics with the family.. The Glacier walk ( dress up warmly) was great and the Lakes breath taking sights and colors. It is a tour of a lifetime for all Canadians..We all plan to go again and spend more time in Banff.
