We have mixed experiences about this tour. First of all I'm mentioning bad onces & then I will cover good parts.
Bad Experiences:
1. 1st Day Hotel experience is really very bad. The Clarion Hotel in Calgary City having lot of problems lik..e - water logging in bathrooms, mal-functionl AC, very rude behaviour from font desk staff, making delay in alotting rooms though there wre plenty of vacant rooms are there and we already booked rooms in that hotel a month ago.
2. Transportation from Calgary Airport to Clarion Hotel was very problematic as the authorized Cab driver as well as Hotel Front Desk staff were not co-operating for re-imbursing the money initially. We got the money after we had round of escalations with Hotel Management & Tours4Fun.
3. We have prior experiences in travelling with a tour group where personally we didn't checkedin the hotel. But, in this scenario, first 2 days, we have seen this issue where we need to show all details and enquire about our hotel resevations. There was no Tours4Fun or Wester representative to handle that.
4. 4th day's lunch was just a disaster. There are lot of resturants in Jasper town with ecomonical options for meal/foods. But, not sure why they had booked for a Korean Resturant(Kimichi House) with extremely bad-tasted-soup-only-meal. We were not able to eat this. And they were not providing altenate meal option also though it was already paid by us. They should understand that the meal option should be acceptable to generic people and not for a specific region. Even most of our chinese travel-mates also could not manage to eat that bogus meal. Wester/Tours4Fun also not refunding that meal money for both of us.
Good Experiences:
1. Bus coach driver Paul & Tour Guide Lisa were really good & friendly. They were showing and explaining the places very descriptive ways.
2. Lunch at Fairmont Spring Banff Hotel was just awesome.
3. Hotel Voyeger Inn at Banff & Athabasca Hote at Jasper town are good hotels and nice arrangements in rooms. Though both of them are lacking elevator as they are very old & refurbishes recently. The sceni views from them just breathtaking.
4. Breakfast bouffets are good in all 3 hotels - Clarion at Calgary, Hotel Voyeger Inn at Banff & Athabasca Hote at Jasper town.
5. The places where we went for visting all are superb and gorgous. I can't explain their beauties in words.Read full review
It was great fun. Very well managed and well paced over the 4 days. Hotels were great (except Clarion), food was great.. Most importantly, we had a great tour guide (Lisa Rong) as well as a very courteous driver (Paul) with Westar. Lisa rea..lly went out of her way to take care of guests and some of our personal requests specially on the food menu. The driver Paul was very knowledgeable - he knew the mountains and lakes and certainly a great story teller.Read full review

I joined this tour with my family, my parents, my uncle, my aunties. I can say this tour is great and worth the price, suitable for kids, adults, and elderly. The schedule, the bus, the hotel was good. The Tour Leader, TIM, is very nice an..d informative. I appreciate that he always inform us about the toilet locations, some choice for lunch/ dinner, and other useful information about the place we're going to go.
Just 1 suggestion if I may say, about the meeting point at Schipol Airport. I think it is better if it's said the meeting point is in front of Burger King Arrival Hall Schipol Airport.
I had trouble to find the meeting point, that day ... hahaha ... i was panic, and I can't find the meeting point. After I called and I got the clue of Burger King, I can find it easily.
But after the hectic at the beginning, I'm so thankful that all other things run okay.
Thank you for the nice experience.Read full review
Vicky and Evan was an amazing tour guid. Evan was an smooth driver with the perfect speeding. Vicky did an outstanding job showing the country and explaining the history. GREAT SERVICE overall!!!!!!
First day, the pick up from airport was late.
Second day, the pick up from hotel to half day city tour also late.
The explanation and detail mostly mandarin.
First of all I had no idea what time and who was picking me up and what hotel I was staying at until day off or night before- tips were mandatory and counted- I had no idea where tour was going each day until that morning- tour was carried ..out in Chinese and English and one of the guides spoke predominantly Chinese and told us if we need explanation to just ask! Vincent and James were awesome and very kind and funny- the stops for lunch should have been at places we could walk or try new things as we waited a long time for group that bought lunch - Columbia icefields trip to glaciers should be stopped! The bus was delayed so we waited for over an hour! We were at one attraction for 4.5 hours! This was a waste of time- I felt the tour was not to explore but to take picturesRead full review

We didn't get to see some attractions we like because itenerary
changed. The hotel in Athabasca has no elevator, my handicapped partner struggled going up the stairs to 3rd floor. Lot of waiting time for the ride options to finish. Overall.. we enjoyed the sightseeing of beautiful sceneriesRead full review
The schedule was completely different than what was mailed to me... Also the quality of hotel was substandard... especially Inns of Banff was too poor.
Also they did not cover full itenerary as promised .. they didn't look us to yoho park ..and Potey lake.
Overall it was a mess and the tour seemed to be stitched from a very poor subcontractor Webster..
Note tours4fun is only a booking agent and does not conduct any tours..
Also inspire of raising concern they do not even have a courtesy to reply me back..

The tour guide Danny and driver Theo for the Paria segment were awesome
