Such a wonderful experience and a great way to see some of Banff’s amazing views from a new perspective. It was a great change of pace after lots of hiking. Maddy, our tour guide, was exceptional. She was so sweet, gave wonderful suggestions and told us so much about the land. We learned so much, and enjoyed our tour! Would definitely recommend for a quick morning tour.

So much fun and a wonderful way to rest the legs after days of hiking and biking! Maddie was not only informative, but she was welcoming and FUN. We loved the entire experience.

Beautiful views!

What a great experience! Our guide was so polite and educated about the area. He even snapped a few action pics for the group and helped us cross the beaver dam! The weather turned out to be absolutely perfect and the views were incredible.

Kayaking with Darby! The best guide!

Great experience. Safe, punctual, beautiful. 8am in July is great since it’s not too hot yet. Abby did a great job. Knowledgeable and made us feel safe even crossing a beaver dam. She let us know that she took many pics of us and sent it to us at the end for free. Bring bug spray since there were many mosquitos!

Such a wonderful...

Just Gorgeous

Natasha_N, Jun 2025

This activity was just gorgeous, easy to locate and flexible touring. We were navigated through narrow routes, over a dam and into two lakes. In the gorgeous weather this was a perfect must do! However, be careful how you book as we accidentally double booked incorrectly and are chasing a partial refund.

Great guided tour! So...

Great guided tour! So many beautiful views and lots of wildlife around. So nice to get out there early before the crowds. It was one of our favorite experiences throughout our time in the area. Highly recommend!!
