Outstanding Experience led by Outstanding Tour Guide!
Liam was our tour guide and we were extremely satisfied with his high energy, expertise, personal touches, and attention to detail. He was prompt and we never felt hurried at any of the stops. He has such an appreciation for the Rockies and he was just a joy to be around. He made it a truly memorable and spectacular day! Thank you, Liam. You are a treasure.

Strenuous, but awesome!
Wear comfy clothes & shoes! The trail at Moraine Lake was steep at times & rugged (but breathtaking). My husband had to stop halfway, his back & knees were complaining! Our guide, Apple (?) was very entertaining, answered all our questions and was looked out for our safety. Highly recommend.

We happened to be there...
We happened to be there on the last opening day. It was amazing. Such beautiful views and landscape. The gondola right was fun. There was a big horn sheep eating under the gondola. Saw many big horn sheep along the road as you arrive. A very nice day and trip. We ended up walking down the mountain from the chairlift. It wasn’t bad going down but certainly wouldn’t want to do it going up!

Glaciers and Glacial Lakes
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.

Best of Banff whistlestop tour
Great quick tour of the Banff area to see a few of the sights.
Ideal to give a useful orientation.
Aki was knowledgeable of the areas visited and added a lot of useful facts.
Stay at each stop as long as you wished - no rush.
Offered granola snack and bottle of water. One restroom stop, if required.
Great value.

Excellent Shuttle Service
Our experience was great! The shuttle to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake was very convenient, and everything went very smoothly. The staff were very attentive, friendly, and helpful throughout the trip. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend this service!

A great experience and meal!
This is a great family adventure for ages 6 and up. There is not a lot of walking involved. The horse drawn wagon takes you through beautiful scenery to a nice outdoor area to eat a delicious meal. The staff are talented and friendly. They make you feel right at home!

First time hikers
We had an absolutely fantastic time on this guided hike, all thanks to Jeff and Mikayla! As first-time hikers, we naturally fell behind the rest of the group, but they both went above and beyond to make sure we were always alright. They continuously encouraged us and advised us to just move at our own pace, which completely took the pressure off and allowed us to actually enjoy the journey.
The hike itself was wonderful, and while it was definitely challenging for beginners, the view at the top was absolutely worth every single step. We couldn't have asked for better guides. Thank you, Jeff and Mikayla—you guys are the best!

Breathtaking
Absolutely unforgettable experience at Johnston Canyon in Banff! From the moment we started the trail, it felt like stepping into a postcard. The turquoise water, the sound of rushing waterfalls, and the stunning canyon walls made every step worth it.
The walk itself was easy to follow and incredibly scenic, with well-maintained pathways and breathtaking views at every turn. Reaching the Lower and Upper Falls was the highlight—each one more beautiful than the last. The fresh mountain air and peaceful atmosphere made it such a refreshing escape from everyday life.
If you’re visiting Banff, this is a must-do. Whether you’re going for a relaxing walk or chasing views, Johnston Canyon delivers pure magic. I’d go back in a heartbeat!

We had a wonderful...
We had a wonderful evening on this tour. Hiking at night is so peaceful. The trail was quiet and the snowfall was perfect ambiance. Having the headlamp was nice for when you wanted to look at something but walking with the dark sky was sensational. Neil was an incredible guide, and we would take a tour with him again, in a heartbeat!
