Amazing Experience and Mark Made the Tour Unforgettable We did the Moraine Lake, Lake Louise and Banff Day Tour and it ended up being one of the best parts of our trip. The views were unreal. Moraine Lake and Lake Louise were even more beautiful in person than in photos. The highlight of the entire tour was Mark. He was absolutely incredible and very fun. He kept everyone laughing, made the atmosphere warm and comfortable and took amazing photos for us. His energy made the whole day feel easy and enjoyable. You can tell he truly loves what he does. The schedule was organized, the ride was comfortable and the whole experience felt smooth from start to finish. Even though it was a long day, the time went by fast because Mark kept the vibes high. If you are planning to do this tour, I strongly recommend it.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
