Top Canmore Day Trips - page 8

We had an amazing family experience watching sunset followed by stargazing in the night sky over Moraine Lake with Toby as our very experienced, knowledgeable, and friendly guide. On the drive there, Toby gave us terrific information about Banff National Park, and also explained exactly what to expect for the duration of the tour. We saw Elk on the way there and Moose on the way back, as well as saw a train passing through the mountains with the Bow river in the background. At Lake Moraine, the experience was magical. Toby first provided hot beverages from the back of the van. We then walked a little bit around the lake and above the rockpile, taking pics. We finally settled down in super comfortable chairs with nice blankets under the night sky. All this was provided as part of the tour! Toby set up the telescope and offered binoculars as well, as he showed us how to identify constellations and star clusters. He even gave us lessons on how to take good photos of the night sky with our Apple, Android and Pixel phones. Amazing shots. Thank you Toby ! After we ate dinner which we had packed for ourselves, and after stargazing, we walked back to the van using the tour-provided headlamps. Folks, I highly recommend this tour for a once-in-a lifetime experience !

This was a wonderful tour. Aziz was a great guide & his knowledge on the history & area was excellent, he was also great at taking group photos! We would highly this tour, if you’re getting picked up in Calgary, make sure you pack a snack as lunch is not till quite late.

Everything was planned beautifully. Aaron, our guide, was truly the best guide we have ever had and we travel quite a bit. He was incredibly knowledgeable and informative, while also having a wonderful sense of humor. We enjoyed every moment, and the day went by far too quickly. The views and the lakes were pretty spectacular.
