Had nice guides and was all in all a good tour with beautiful spots. Just would've hoped for more hikes and tranquility places.
- Caribou - Discover the Best of the Rockies
The tour was fab! Made all the better by iur wonderful guide. Western Canada is stunning and we got to see all the best bits!
- Wapiti - Uncover the Beauty of Western Canada
This tour was wonderful! Moose was incredibly responsive and every detail was covered. Our guide was knowledgeable and enthusiastic about providing a unique experience to meet each travelers interest. On a side note, when initially looking up reviews of Moose Canada I had read terribly reviews. After further investigation this was only related to Moose East. Moose West is a wonderful company and I highly recommend them for your next adventure.
