Top Banff Private Sightseeing Tours

Our day with Vani was educational, fun and filled with so many beautiful lakes, falls and mountains. Vani shared information about the parks, how lakes were named and the best time to visit each sight. She accommodated our abilities and our inabilities with the paths and trails we took! Our day was fabulous!

Nolan and Gerald tag teamed telling us about the culture, sites and activities we would be doing. They made a great team. Peyto Lake was beautiful first thing in the morning. We learned how glaciers help produce the vivid blue in the lakes around them. Next we went to the Skywalk which provided great views of glaciers, waterfalls and the rugged terrain below that mountain goats and big horn sheep frequent. It was great being on the bus because buses park right next to the entrance while car riders must be transported to the site. We walked right in and had our bus waiting for us once we we done. The buffet style lunch had a great variety of food and was extremely well organized to handle busloads of people. The photography in the visitor Center below was exceptional. We then were driven to the ice explorer which took us straight out o to the glacier. The views were breathtaking. We had plenty of time to walk around in safe zones and get all the pictures we wanted. As a bonus, we even saw a large black bear along the road on our way home and paused for a brief moment for photos out the window. Again, being on the tour bus allowed us to see more because of the up front parking passenger buses are given at all the sites. Well worth the tour.

What an amazing experience. Connor was the “host with the most” and was very conversational and explained so much about wildlife, and just great and fun conversation altogether. Everything went great, despite it being a little rainy during the first half of the tour. Fortunately, we were able to see some beautiful elk! We especially appreciate that Connor suggested “Peak” pho restaurant. It was a welcome respite from the cold.!
