Pickup & drive to Heritage Park

Your day begins with pickup at Calgary Airport (YYC), where your driver-guide welcomes you before setting off across the city toward southwest Calgary. Along the way, watch the skyline give way to leafy river-valley neighborhoods that ring Heritage Park, Canada's largest living history museum. It's a relaxed, scenic start to the morning, with time to settle in, ask questions about the day ahead, and glimpse the Bow River before arriving at the gates of this beloved Calgary landmark.
