Amazing Tour of the 4 major lakes in the region
This tour covered 4 of the best lakes in Bannf National Park. The spacing was perfect and some light hiking was great exercise. We had plenty of time at each lake and saw some of the other attractions on the ride. Kenneth was a exceptional guide! Highly recommended!

This day trip was perfect for our 1 full day to explore the highlights of Banff National Park. Our guide Gray was awesome! He’s very knowledgeable about the park and gave us great tips on where to go for photos without damaging the park and the surrounding areas. Enough time to explore all the places in the itinerary. Highly recommended!

Great tour!
Garry was a great guide! On time and very knowledgeable about the lakes and sights. Even did more stops due to a mix up with the company and advertising the same trip on get your guide and viator, as some had lake Louise and some didn’t. But not his fault and it was all sorted out. That should be fixed moving forward tho. Recommend for sure!

Icefields parkway tour
Tony was an amazing guide! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond with snacks, water, and showing us incredible hidden gems along the Icefields Parkway. He made the day so enjoyable and memorable. Highly recommend Banff Journey and Tony as a guide!

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.

Excellent tour by Jesse
We had a great experience on our grand tour with Jesse. It was so nice to have the driving, navigating, and parking expertly taken care of so we could relax and enjoy. Jesse was so nice and hit the right note for being informative and guiding us while also letting us do our own thing. Definitely worth it, highly recommended.

Great tour of 2 breweries and beautiful street art in many parts of the city of Calgary.
Great tour of the city of Calgary city art. Many talented artists leave their mark on the sides if buildings all over the city. We began at the wonderful brewery and sampled 6 different beers. Then walked the city to see the art and ended at a second brewery sampling another f is ur beers. The second was Four Dogs which allowed patrons to bring their dogs with them inside.

Great Family Activity
My family and I had a fantastic afternoon out with Jeff ( driving our bus) and Joe our brilliant guide. The whole team were encouraging and welcoming but most importantly safe getting us as inexperienced rafters down the river and having a great time. Would highly recommend

Amazing trip!
The trip was absolutely wonderful - everything was perfectly organized from pickup to return. There was plenty of free time to enjoy all the beauty!
Special thanks to our guide Kamal, who provided all the necessary information without overwhelming us.

We saw a LOT of Banff in just one day. It was really nice to not have to drive and deal with parking at each location. Our guide, Ben, was really knowledgeable about Banff and its history. The lakes are breathtaking and we really enjoyed the view from the top of Sulphur Mountain.

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.

Not seeing something you are looking for?
Surrounded by the beauty of the Rocky Mountains, Calgary is an ideal home base for visitors wanting to explore Alberta’s expansive parks. A day trip from Calgary can take you to the glacial blue waters of Lake Louise, the picturesque town of Banff, and the Columbia Icefields. In summer, the dramatic badlands landscape of Drumheller is well worth a visit on a tour, too, as you discover the dinosaur capital of the world.
