My wife and I took the Banff Gondola ride the 2nd week of October when many of the resorts in the area were closing down for the season. I expected to ride it to the top of the mountain, walk around cold and maybe go to some cheesy gift sh..op and go back down. Was I wrong!!! There were 2 restaurants and the National Parks Department had tons of exhibits and interesting wildlife exhibits. There was also quite a bit of history with a beautiful Welcome Center, an Observation Tower and other hiking paths that were nicely maintained with stairs and decks. Definitely worth the approximately $50 a person for the ride as we were up there much of the day,Read full review
The bus on the 1st day was old and had a little leg room, no seatbelt but the itinerary was good. The 2nd bus (last day) was better. I love Quebec! It was beautiful though the weather wasn't nice. It rained all day. The tour guides were ple..asant and although they are not fluent in English, they could speak enough to understand. 96% were chinese people. I was among the minority (English speakers). At the wine tasting (last day), me and other 2 non-Chinese had a hard time. We didnt get the tour (winery) as we were told to wait for another tour guide who was busy at the time. However, an employe approached the 3 of us and had the wine tasting. Overall, it was a good experience.Read full review
We enjoyed the tour, only each day was an early rize. We recommend a longer stay at Quebec. For such a beautiful place was they time to spend there too short.
Bill, our tour guide, did a good job taking care of us. He was patient in explaining and repeating instructions when needed. George, our driver, has great driving skills and took great care in making sure our safety was his priority. These ..two fine gentlemen were both great throughout the trip.Read full review
Since the beginning, Tours4fun made it clear that the travellers of this tour would have been mainly chinese. This was fine for us. The assistance was good starting from booking to arrival and final departure, our tour guides were very frie..ndly and professional with us.
The tour itself gives you a good kowledge and some nice visits of all the main locations and attractions. Obvioulsy available time is limited and you have to organize properly in order to avoid any loss of time, profiting the maximum during every stop. Prices of attractions are fair and have aways been respected as indicated in the website. Meals are mainly asian buffet but the choice is wide and we never felt hungry or in disconfort (we are italian!). Language was not an issue (Chinese/English), we came back home very happy of this trip!Read full review
Enjoyed the ride on the Banff Gondola. Beautiful scenery. So worth the trip when you get to the top of Sulphur Mountain. 360 degree views of the valley below. Spectacular. The only negative about booking with tours4fun online is that there ..is no option for selecting a time for your activity. I had to call them for instructions as to time.Read full review
