Awesome History Review

Lisa_A, Oct 2025

It was awesome. My friend and I learned a little bit more about the history of banff. Are tour guide took us around the town and showed us different aspects where we would not really look otherwise. It was a great way to spend a couple hours just getting back to Nature and a wonderful experience. Our tour guide azim was very friendly and knowledgeable. And he even helped us take a few pictures and we shared a couple laughs.

Fantastic tour of a fabulous place. Ask for Aziz. We ended up with a personal tour with him because no one else signed up. He was so interesting, engaging, and fun. And he took great pics of us so we could remember the special day.

A well-spent two-hour walking tour around town

YunFang_L, Aug 2025

We had an amazing time during the walking tour. Our tour guide Jess gave us an overview of the history of Banff, and walked through the town at the perfect pace and pointed out interesting spots along with way. We got the lay of the land after the tour, and got some nice photos as well. Another benefit is we learned where all the washrooms are after the tour, which comes handy when we were exploring the town in the next few days . Overall we highly recommend this tour and would suggest adding it to your itinerary!
