Myla HartIf you’re heading out with Grizzly Banff Tours, definitely ask for Mark! He’s awesome and honestly made our whole day. Mark is super down-to-earth and knows Banff inside out. He dropped so many cool facts about the area and the wildlife! He was super thoughtful, too. It was freezing on our tour, and right when we needed it most, he surprised us all with hot chocolate! He was constantly making sure we were good and helping us get the best photos. Mark, thank you so much for such an amazing day! You took care of every little thing so we could just chill, stay warm, and take in the crazy views. 10/10, request Mark if you can!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
