I did this hike on the first week of April, with Jeff. What made the ice walk amazing was that Jeff kept it lively in addition to the beautiful scenery! I loved that it wasn’t crowded. For this reason alone, this tour is so worth it!

We had the best time rafting on the Kicking Horse this summer! A definite must do when you’re in the area. Our raft guide was extremely knowledgeable and has decades of experience rafting/guiding on this river. Such a fun day! We can’t wait to book again!
