What an amazing day. John our guide took two ladies and our 13 year old daughters through the cave. He was patient with the girls as they talked his ear off. He was amazing at helping us through the cave. I was paralyzed 10 years ago, and have some weakness in my hips, and he helped and guided me through the cave, not once making me feel inadequate. The cave push us through some fears and was challenging, but worth it. An amazing experience.

White Water Rafting on the Sunwapta River was amazing! The water was freezing, but that did not prevent us from having such a fun time. Brody, our Maligne Adventures raft guide, did an incredible job instructing us on how to steer through the rapids and how to avoid the many obstacles in the water. Rafts can normally hold 6 people plus a guide. Due to the Covid-19 restrictions, our group of 4 was in our own raft with our guide which was perfect for us. We chose to not take the bus transfer from the downtown Jasper meeting point to avoid having to wear masks for the 45 minute per direction bus ride. We followed the bus in our own car. Everyone at Maligne Adventures, from Daniella in the reservations office to the rafting guides were friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. We highly recommend this tour. We would most certainly do it again.
