It was great overall, be ready to look at rocks all day. I would adjust some timing, ex make last chance hotel shorter stop and extend hoodos. Zee was kind and entertaining. Bus was chill enough for a hot summer day, it’s not the best for sleeping but comfortable enough. I would suggest to add food information to description.

Explore Banff National Park Premium Day Trip

Mariola_M, Aug 2026

Outstanding tour!

We had a fantastic tour with Teddy today! He was incredibly engaging, yet knew exactly when to give passengers space to decompress after each stop. He was also perfectly on time. Also, in all my years of traveling, he is the only guide I have ever met who never once brought up tipping! Tito was also great! Even though he wasn’t there on the day of our trip, he reached out a couple of days beforehand to check in. Such a refreshing experience from start to finish! I highly recommend Rocky Mountain Trips to anyone visiting BANFF!

Sam was a safe driver....

Sam was a safe driver. Always willing to assist us in any way. Offered chips and water during the trip. Enjoyed the tour a lot. Both Sunwapta and the Athabasca falls were amazing. Peyto and Bow lakes were such awe to see. Every corner of the highway had great views. The tour was worth every penny we spent.

If I had one day in Banff, this is the tour I would have picked. You get to do it all a little bit and get to see some amazing views of nature. Our tour guide was very respectful and helpful all along and I loved hearing some interesting facts through the day.

Fantastic experience!

We had a wonderful experience on our trip with our guide, Boyd. He was extremely polite, well-mannered, and professional throughout the entire experience. He drove very carefully and smoothly, which made us feel comfortable and relaxed during the whole trip. Boyd was also a great guide. He was very helpful, attentive, and made sure we enjoyed every part of the experience. He even helped us find the perfect spots for taking beautiful pictures, which made our memories even more special. We also had a great experience with Viator. Everything was very easy, smooth, and comfortable, from booking to the actual trip. The whole process was stress-free and well organized. We truly enjoyed our experience and would definitely recommend Boyd and Viator to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable trip!

Banff Gondola Hot Springs Bow Falls and Three Lakes tour

Day Tripping in an Air Conditioned Van

On a recent vacation to Calgary we took the Banff Gondola Hot Springs Bow Falls and Three Lakes Tour. From beginning to end, we had a very enjoyable day. The pick-up location was easy to find and very walkable from our downtown hotel. Our guide, Naveen, did an excellent job. He was cordial and professional, a perfect combination. Our favorite parts of the tour were Bow Falls, Lake Louise, and the Banff Gondola. If you take this tour and you happen to love mint chocolate chip ice cream, you're in luck! It was available at the snack stand at Lake Minnewanka and was delicious!

Lake Louise Moraine Lake Emerald Lake Yoho Banff National Park

francesaline, Aug 2026

Fantastic!

This was jam packed, busy day, but well worth it! This is a great experience that hit many of the well known sights to see around Banff. I chose this tour because not only did we get to visit Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, but this was one of the few tours that went to Emerald lake in the summer time. Ron was a great tour guide and very knowledgeable of the area and its history! He really helped make the tour fun! I would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to hit a lot of popular spots in one trip!

Calgary City Highlights 3 Hour Walking Tour Gratuity-Based

Fun City/ lots of walking

Great city and so much to see. We had a great guide who provided good information. The area is stunning, and we really enjoyed the tour. Overall, very happy with the experience. This is a 3-hour walking tour! Be aware that it is only walking for 3 hours. It worked great for us, but if you have issues walking, this is not for you.
