Customer Feedback:
- "Canada has a much different take on National Parks than the US does. This seems much more like a town than a park, the deer were also pretty friendly like they have been feed. Still a nice stop though if you want to see Canada."

- "A must-do experience is the cruise ride that crosses the US border into Glacier National Park, stopping at Goat Haunt. The park boasts beautiful waterfalls like Blackiston Falls and Cameron Falls, as well as the unique Red Rock Canyon with its striking red rocks."

Yes! You’ve got to visit, especially if you’re already visiting Glacier National Park in the states. You’ll need your passport to get across the border into Canada, which is also pretty fun getting to talk with the border agents. The entire area is absolutely stunning and it’s a lot of fun getting to take the trail over in Waterton Park up along the waterfall. Make sure to visit the park’s visitor center for some really interesting exhibits and make sure to get your National Park Passport stamped at the front desk!
A must-do experience in Waterton! Boat crew were all knowledgeable about the town and can crack up some humour during the tour. There’s no washroom in the boat, so make sure you used one before boarding. Also, parking can be difficult especially close to departure times so arrive early.
Had an unforgettable hike in Waterton on September 21st! Ran into a mama bear and her two cubs. Huge shout out to the amazing park ranger who was out there keeping everyone safe by scaring the bears out of town. If you see this, thank you! You were a total hero that day!
