Great Tour
We had a great day and saw so many sights and even bears! Harry (our driver) stopped whenever there was something interesting to look at for a photo opportunity. He was very accommodating and even changed the order of our tour around so that everyone could do the Ice Experience

Highly Recommend Winter Tour
This excursion was incredible from start to finish. We needed pickup in Calgary and drop-off in Canmore, and even with all our luggage, the process was smooth—we just paid a small fee to bring our bags along. Our guide, Kenneth, truly made the experience special. He kept things fun and engaging while taking us to amazing photo spots, many of which we had to ourselves. Other tour groups didn’t seem to go the same places in winter.
One of the highlights was reaching Abraham Lake to see the frozen bubbles—something even locals were surprised we managed to do in winter. It was absolutely worth it.
A quick tip: pack a lunch. There was only one early stop at a gas station, and no other food options for the rest of the day.
To top it all off, instead of dropping us at a random stop in Canmore, the company contacted us the day before to confirm our accommodations and dropped us right at our front door with all our luggage. It was such a thoughtful touch.
Overall, my friends and I had an amazing time and would highly recommend this tour.

Great experience
Great experience! We joined at the last minute because another company canceled on us less than 24 hours before. Thankfully we were able to join this group and had a wonderful time. Liam our guide was super nice and showed us all the beauty in Banff in the winter.

Tour to Lakes with unknown weather
Ken was a great guide and took care of us. We had a full van and picked us up at the scheduled time and place. We could have never anticipated the weather would turn cold and snowy overnight but it did make for a beautiful landscape with the fresh snow. It took about 45 minutes to arrive at Lake Louise and it was crowded but the Lake and the snowy conditions made for a beautiful vision. Ken gave us about 75 minutes to tour the area. When we got ready to leave and head to Lake Louise. Unfortunately when we got to the road we were told it was closed due to the weather and a trapped bus up the road. With a quick call to dispatch, we were told the tour had to be canceled and they would refund half the cost. While we were disappointed we have to commend Ken and the company for making Lemonade out of lemons. Overall good tour and fair consideration.

Moraine Lake and Lake Louise.
This tour was AMAZING! Our tour guide was friendly and knowledgeable and the view of Moraine Lake at Sunrise is spectacular! The opportunity to visit Moraine Lake and Lake Louise in the Canadian Rocky Mountains while letting someone else navigate the roads was such a joy. Perfect way to start our vacation.

10/10 (even with no stars!)
Absolutely incredible. This was my favorite thing I did while in Banff, even though it was overcast and we didn’t see any stars! It was just so magical to be at Moraine Lake when it was so peaceful. Our little group were the only people there! Sebastian is an incredible guide. He was so knowledgeable and funny. He went out of his way to make the whole event extra special.

Worth it
This was the only tour I could find that took you to both Lakes Louise and Moraine for two hours each, not one hour. This gave us enough time to rent a canoe and hike without being worried about getting back on time. Our tour guide, Chris, was good fun and entertained us on the long drive with stories. He also led us personally to the most popular spots.

Best Guide who can make a fun joke.
A guide was super friendly and she made us comfortable and fun throughout the tour by telling us fun stories with lots of joke like it is her first time to go moraine lake etc. And she was super punctual and kind. I would highly recommend this tour. This tour was the best one as they don't charge for little kids (2 y/o and 3 y/o) Family with kids can save a lot if you choose this one

Wonderful Views, Fantastic Guide
Lovely experience, amazing scenery. Definitely coldest before sunrise. If you venture to the rock pile, you can't go wrong with an overview of Lake Moraine. If you hike, venture to the Fairview trail to overlook Lake Louise and take in the amazing water color with the Fairmont Chateau in the background.
Our tour operator Ken was on time, funny and informative! A great experience for us as first-timers to the area.

Perfect views and wildlife sightings!
We had a great time on our tour with our excellent guide, Jay! My family had already visited the more popular lakes the day prior, so it was nice to see the other beautiful parts of Banff while guided by an expert :) We had plenty of time to explore at each of the stops and I appreciated how Jay made sure we didn't miss any chances to see wildlife! My highlights of the tour were seeing a porcupine at Johnston Canyon and the great views at Lake Minnewanka. I highly recommend booking this tour.
