All Jasper Tours & Excursions in 2026

This was a great experience, partially because it was a perfect afternoon with clear blue skies. It was nice to see what I consider to be the iconic picture for Jasper National Park. We were fortunate that we booked an afternoon cruise as all of the morning cruises were cancelled due to fog over the lake. It cleared just in time for our scheduled cruise. I would highly recommend this excursion if you like to see great scenery. The crew on the boat was great and provided some interesting information about the lake and surrounding area. We went in early October so the mountains surrounding the lake were snow capped to make the scenery stunning.

EXCELLENT! Just make sure you know you are indeed hiking in this one. I had looked at both options I found and THOUGHT I got the one that was more what I could handle 7 months out from a major knee surgery but we got about 45 mins out and I realized I was very wrong. All my error, just know this has some steep hiking areas and is 3 hours of almost continuous hills and declines on unstable surfaces. Guillaume, our tour guide, went absolutely above and beyond to help me through my experience. I can’t thank him enough for helping me and allowing me to still experience this. Outside of that, if you can hike, DO THIS! It definitely was a much better option for seeing magical glacier events! And ask for Guillaume because he will teach you so much, pay attention for your safety and your questions, and will make this an amazing experience worth every dollar.

Unforgettable tour! 🌟 Our guide Jan was amazing—funny, exciting, and went out of his way to make it special. We saw a bull moose, a cow, and even a grizzly bear eating berries! The boat trip to Spirit Island was just as memorable thanks to the lively guide and captain. Only small note: no need to pack lunch, since restaurants are at Maligne Lake..

This particular tour would’ve been well worth the money even if we had had a cloudy day and didn’t get to see any wildlife. Our bus driver, Sam, was a encyclopedia of knowledge about the causes and results of the recent and huge Jasper Fire. He studied forestry in college and helped us all understand that the fire, while devastating to the residents of Jasper, was overdue and much needed. He took care to point out the signs of regrowth, and showed us the difference between a healthy forest and a forest that needs to be renewed by fire. 🔥 Nelson, our guide while we were on the boat tour, gave us excellent information on the legends and beliefs of the Five First Nations as it relates to Maligne Lake and Spirit Island. Most of what you could find about Spirit Island on the Internet is not true, which is no big surprise. When we got back on the bus, we saw some additional wildlife near Medicine Lake and Sam took us down by the lake where we could hear the water draining into the underground river. Absolutely fascinating. I could go on and on about how these two young men made our experience both delightful and educational. It was a very worthwhile excursion!

Once in a lifetime experience! Able to rappel into a crevasse on Athabasca Glacier is not something you get to do every day. Our guide Sarah was amazing, being able to cater to different age groups, fitness levels and yet everyone was able to enjoy themselves!

This trip was well worth the time and money. Not only did it give us transportation from Jasper to Banff, but it also provided us with many amazing stops along the way, like: Athabasca Falls, the Athabasca Glacier , the ride on the Glacier vehicle, and the breathtaking Skywalk. Our driver John was the best. Having grown up in the area, he kept us entertained with amazing bits of history, events, and humorous folklore of the region. The bus was clean and comfortable, with outlets along the sides to charge your phones after taking hundreds of photos. This tour also provided snacks, drinks, and lunches. You cannot go wrong on this tour!

Being new to rafting, we chose the Canyon Run trip and it was outstanding. We saw 2 bull elk & osprey. Our guide Eric is absolutely stellar. Maligne Rafting has all new rafts, gear and wetsuits for rafters. Despite the 2024 fire, there's plenty of beauty. DO wear a swim suit, you'll completely change clothes into safety neoprene suits. We had great fun.

Great first time river rafting. Enjoyed it immensely and would recommend it if you have never tried it. Our crew were fantastic. Thank you Dave, Molly, Ollie and special thanks to our guide, Seb. He shared lots of information about the area and gave us tips for things to do in Banff, much appreciated.
