I just came across this! It's Kirk your Jammer!!! This is so cool thank you!!! I'll be back again this summer! Jammer Kirk! Tell Ted hello! Hug's!

[@dianeschmiane]

Holy cow, Kirk! So cool to see you here, glad you enjoyed the video! We had the best time on your bus, it was awesome! Ted says hi back! 😍

[@deeoh3708]

Really interesting video Diane.. thank you for taking us along and teaching us about this gorgeous Park. 🥰

[@dianeschmiane]

You’re so welcome, we learned a lot too!

[@charlesknight3204]

Diane … Spectacular; simply spectacular!!! The only thing better than the vistas was your video description of them!!! This was an excellent video!!! You and hubby take care, be safe, best wishes and God bless!!! Chuck Knight from Buffalo, Texas. 👨‍🌾✝️🙏🖖🐩

[@KindCreature1]

"The Loo with the View!" Funny Diane!!

[@dawnvierra4063]

Exquisite views and scenery. Would love to take that red bus tour. Yay Ford!! On the restoration

[@dianeschmiane]

Dawn, definitely recommend it!

[@terrapintravels3829]

Exceptionally scenic and very well done video with very interesting history of the park and Red bus restoration thank you!🐢

[@dianeschmiane]

Thank you, I'm so glad you enjoyed it!

[@lindakrusyna7275]

Diane this is a wonderful "documentary", thanks for taking us along. Such gorgeous scenary.

[@dianeschmiane]

Linda, you're so welcome! It was amazing... :)

[@michelleslifeonrepeat]

Sat many of times where you are at with our babies. We lived just 15 minutes from the Entrance near Columbia Falls

[@dianeschmiane]

Oh wow, such a great area of the country to live!

[@gaillittle1700]

Wow they why you explained everything you could be the tour guide. Thank You for amazing video/trip. I felt I was right with you and hubs. If I ever get there I would do the red bus because I wouldn't want to drive it and I am not a hiker so this would be perfect.

[@anniesshenanigans3815]

WELL, I think I found a bucket list now.. the National Parks. I made plans to go out west a few years ago and that was dashed with two broken ankles just before covid hit... then of course nothing was happening for the last 3 years. I have been struggling to find a purpose, you know that 'bucket' list that we need in our older years. I turn 60 this year and although not fully retired, I want to start traveling and seeing the things I was never able to when I was younger.

[@dianeschmiane]

Annie, that's awesome. Start traveling now while you can, even if you're not fully retired. We never know which day will be our last. And the national parks are a great bucket list to have... :)

[@evazee772]

Spectacular! Great video! I've been to Glacier bay. This is an in depth view of the land at a Glacier. Thank you for sharing your travels. Tell hubby it was great to see him along for your bucket list travel. Safe travel beautiful soul. P.S. I am binge watching your videos Lol. I am enjoying with my Organic Chia & Quinoa Chips.

[@dianeschmiane]

Mmmmm, sounds tasty! Eva, thanks for watching them all, that's awesome, and I'll pass the message along to the hubby... :)

[@Bernimv]

Ohhh I need my café Espresso..so much wonderful information...so exciting..I wonder how many days it'll take to enjoy seeing everything..oh they are so cute those ground squirrels..yay 🐑 thank you for a wonderful journey

[@dianeschmiane]

Bernadette, thank you for watching and saying hello!

[@jamesbonner5989]

I did the Going to the Sun Road on my Goldwing motorcycle, it was a stessfull ride trying to be safe and see the views. The bus is the way to go for sure.

[@dianeschmiane]

It looked like fun, doing it on a bike, but yeah, the stress has gotta be intense!

[@cindysimoes3043]

We did the red bus tour in 2019. LOVED IT!

[@dianeschmiane]

Right? I thought it was totally worth it... :)

[@charlagarth926]

Great video. You just keep getting better. And better!

[@nancycoole5217]

Truly Stunning Videography 😍 Thanx so much for taking us with...

[@dianeschmiane]

Nancy, thank you so much. Mother Nature did an amazing job with that park, yes?

[@nancycoole5217]

@@dianeschmiane Absolutely 💯

[@WhiteMisty]

Another great video with stunning views

[@stephenrowles8273]

At 0:25 the driver makes sure everyone has their park pass then later shows the passengers showing them to the gate person. We have a park pass which is supposed to be for both of us in our car. We don’t have 2 passes. Do we need another national park pass if we take the red bus tour? Or are they showing some different kind of pass? Could you please explain exactly is happening in that scene?

[@dianeschmiane]

If I recall, we had to purchase walk-in passes, but check the national park service website and the tour company to see what's required now.

[@rosefox6557]

What can I say except WOW!! Absolutely beautiful!! Thank you so much for taking us along on that wonderful red bus!!! Your videography was amazing, as usual.

[@ramonapuckett3059]

Oh my goodness! Thank you so much for taking us along! The scenery and the dialogue was spectacular ❤❤

[@Tcal-y4q]

I cried multiple times at the stunning beauty! This made me cry again! Thank you!

[@dianeschmiane]

It's truly amazing!

[@robinspygmys9039]

Yay Ford

[@zafiracamper]

Jeez, I thought last episode views were epic 😱

[@dianeschmiane]

I don't think there's much else in the US that can top this, but we'll see... :)

[@SippyCupAdventures]

Wow, what an incredibly detailed tour of Glacier you provided here! I really had no clue how beautiful Glacier is. You captured it perfectly and the tour with the Red Bus is definitely the way to go! This video should really resonate with those looking to go to Glacier. Really fascinating history of the Red Bus tour and it's association with Ford. Well done! 👏👏

[@suewho9704]

You two are so sweet together ❤️

[@nancylagoyda5337]

Great tour! I think that would be right up my alley!

[@dianeschmiane]

Nancy, it was epic, highly recommend... :)

[@anniedato9497]

Thanks for taking us along for the drive, you were an amazing tour guide. The views were breathtaking and I just added GNP to my bucket list.

[@krisg3984]

So pretty. It’s really over run with tourists now- wow , bummer. - But you did a fantastic tour for us , great video !

[@dianeschmiane]

Yes, it was definitely popular, but we were there during peak season!

[@redbustourguide]

Since they've established a reservation system there's less people in the park on the daily than ever before. I feel really sad for people that might not get a chance to see the Glaciers before they're all gone.

[@sharonbroward2265]

I would love to see this but the amount of people is a HUGE turnoff for me so thanks for this. I will probably never see it on my own. Too many people.

[@dianeschmiane]

The way to see it for you then is off season, maybe in the fall when the weather's still nice but the crowds aren't so thick... :)

[@redbustourguide]

Mary, thank you so much for your lovely comment and for the encouragement. I really, really appreciate it! 😍

I get you need to make money but too many ads spoiled this video

[@dianeschmiane]

Thanks for the feedback. I let YT decide how to handle them but maybe I should revisit.

[@406dreamin8]

You should check out the snow removal videos! Talk about high risk jobs! Amazing what goes into getting that open ever summer! Love your channel and thank you so much for taking the time to share with us! And welcome to Montana!😄
