Just wondering if anyone has gone on one of these tours ( there are a few different ones to choose) and which you chose and if you liked it. I see there is one that is almost 9 hours long. ( too long for us) we were thinking about the "west alpine tour" which is only 4 hours

We did a Red Bus tour a few years ago, cannot remember which specific tour route. I think any of them are worth the views you see. Just pick the one that appals and I think you will be happy. Enjoy!

I think the tour from the west side to Logan Pass Vistor Best

Yes do the tour. The cars have fold down roofs so you can see straight up. The tour guide gives out so much information. our tour was about 9 hrs. It included a stop for lunch.You can see so much more on a tour. you do not have to worry about the other drivers. We did the going to the sun road.

We did a 4 hour tour on the west side and really enjoyed it. The price is worth not having to drive or deal with all the traffic.

We did the Crown of the Continent tour with our driver Peggy, it was 10 hours of greatness.

I was involved with the restoration of those Red Buses and would take the 4 hour tour. You should have a Blast.

We did the tour from St.Mary on the east side, about 4 hours. It was in September and fairly chilly even with a jacket and the wool blanket they provided. The driver was great and full of information.

Yes, we took the 3 1/2 to 4 hour tour and I would not recommend any that are longer. As others have mentioned, the buses aren't that comfortable but the scenery is awesome

We did the complete trip from West Glacier to East Glacier and back, 10 hours. There are numerous photo/rest stops and the coaches are not uncomfortable. Enjoy you trip.

We did the Mountain Majesty Tour. 6-7.5 hrs west side. Worth the price IMO. I initially balked at it as I don't care for bus tours but he driver was really informative and made the trip a lot of fun. Left at 1:30 and got back at 8:15.
