Amazing fun of fun customized for our family - From the moment we walked into the storefront to book we knew it was going to be an amazing experience. Every employee is super knowledgeable and they made recommendations for our family. Shuttle picked us up right on time and delivered us to base camp. James our guide made sure we felt comfortable operating the sleds and then took us for an amazing ride. He stopped to check in on us and handled any hiccups seamlessly. He added a fun and super cool factor to the tour that the kids loved! They also added on the zipline which had gorgeous views and equally kind and knowledgeable guides that encouraged my reluctant 10yo. We returned at night for Valley Luminea and it was the perfect magical end to the day. Besides being thoroughly exhausted we have no complaints! The add-on packages are a great deal. While there is a warming hut and snacks for purchase, as well as complimentary hot chocolate, I would recommend packing a lunch if you are going to be on site all day.

All round excellent! - Fantastically well organised. I Contacted before booking and Michael couldn’t have been more helpful! Helped me organise a tour with the add on illumination for later in the day. The whole experience started well , really friendly and super helpful staff when we arrived and our snowmobile guides were excellent and catered for everyone in our party so we all got what we wanted from the experience. I can absolutely see why they have so many 5* reviews! Here’s one more!!

3 part adventure - I ziplined, snowmobiled AND snowshoed with TAG. I had a BLAST! Guides clearly explained safety features. All staff were courteous and encouraging. Seems like a bright personality is a prerequisite to working with TAG. I HIGHLY recommend them!

A great experience for all ages! - As a total beginner to snowmobiles, (and a woman in my 50's) I felt very well supported and safe on my first ride. My guide kept to a speed that I was happy with and gave us ample time for photo opportunities. I really enjoyed seeing the forest from a different vantage. Highly recommend if you're a bit of a thrill seeker like me!

Awesome snowmobile tour - This was our second snowmobile tour, but our first with The Adventure Group. My son and I went in January 2023 and were lucky enough to be the only ones on our tour, as the other family didn't show up in time. Our guide was fabulous and made sure my son had plenty of time on the mini snowmobile. We had a great time, and reached some high speeds, which was really exhilarating. A good variety of paths and terrain, not so much in regard to photo opportunities or scenic views. The only downside to The Adventure Group is both times we have visited (January 2022 and January 2023) there has not been a shuttle bus, so we have had to pay a taxi $20-25 CAD each way.
