Customer Reviews

Get out of the city.

Having lived in Calgary for close to 10 years I thought I knew all there was to do in the Calgary region. 'Day Trips From Calgary' opened my eyes to many more adventures within a 2 hour drive from Calgary, away from the well beaten paths to Banff and Kananaskis Country. It also provides some insight to the suprisingly long and colorful history of the area. You don't have to spend a fortune to have a great time around Calgary!

Excellant Well laid out resource.

This easy to use guide is an asset to anyone living or traveling to the Calgary area. The directions are easy to follow. The descriptions of the destinations are accurate and very interesting. He has put a lot of thought into the book and includes many less travelled and yet very beautiful sites. Especially recommened for famillies with young children who are not up for the long car rides but sill want to visit new and fun places.
