No Frills East Tour

==THE TOUR== Our driver/mini-guide, Red, was terrific. He is an excellent driver and very safety-minded. He provided minimal guidance for the trails and as an independent traveler, I REALLY appreciated not having a guide who accompanied us the entire time. At each stop, Red told us what we needed to know and what to expect at each site. Each stop was roughly 70-80 minutes, which was plenty for me. (I easily hiked around 3km at each stop but I am a hiker and trail runner.) If you're looking for safe transportation to/from Lakes Louise and Moraine, this is your tour. ==ADDITIONAL LOGISTICS TO CONSIDER== For those of you driving to Banff for the tour, be prepared to pay the (roughly) 13 CAD per person park entrance fee. The town of Banff is inside the national park. Look for parking structures that offer free parking and be very judicious about street parking in Banff. The Mount Royal pick-up location does NOT have a bathroom nearby so plan accordingly! The nearest public toilet is about a 10 min walk, roundtrip, from Mount Royal. (Not sure about the train station pick-up.) Please remember to not litter. Even if it "slips" put of your hand/pocket/bag, please remember that wildlife will try to eat it. Saw lots of thrown tissues, food wrappers, and some plastic bottles on the trail. Please be mindful of your refuse and take it back out with you.

Columbia icefield and Skywalk Tour
