This was absolutely one of the most exceptional trips I have been to. Jed and Nicole were fantastic as guides. Jed was so passionate about the geology, the wildlife, the forests, the history, geography and the science of the area that the trip became amazing and extremely informative. As it was a small group tour, each and every one of us got time to meander around a bit into nature and experience our own tryst with it. We saw the elks, a coupe of moose, deer, mountain goats and a coyote. We also got a fantastic working lunch. The passport at the Visitor's centre is an absolute must buy. Please stamp it for the day that you spent there on this trip. Overall, this trip cannot be missed by anyone who loves nature, the mountains, the lakes and the wildlife!RabindranathD9

We had a great time on the tour of Rocky Mountain National Park. We enjoyed Dylan who was very informative about the history of the park. Lots of stops to stretch your legs and check out the scenery. Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves a tour and doesn’t want to drive.
