This was an AMAZING tour and well worth the money! What we saw in one day you could never do on your own! Lake Louise, Lake Moraine, Emerald Lake and Bow Falls all stunning! Lake Moraine I thought was the most beautiful place I have ever seen and it’s only accessible by tour or shuttle. Barry the driver and Ben the guide were wonderful! Gave us lots of history and recommendations for the rest of our trip. Would definitely recommend this tour!

Great way to see all the sights without having to find parking with the crowds. Perfect if you have limited time in the area.

On-time pick-up, friendly driver, plenty of time @ excursion stops & OUTSTANDING service! Thank You!
Vickie_V, Jul 2026
It was a great way to see 3 lakes, Louise, Moraine and Emerald. It was a good amount of time to check out the lake and get some photos at each. The tour guide, Ben was fun and shared a lot of information which was good but it was hard to hear him at times and the bus got really hot in the afternoon (even with the air on). My 12 year old had fun but my 9 year old said it was too much driving and wished we had just seen Lake Louise and Moraine Lake and taken more time at those to hike. Wish there was an option for a tour with 3-4 hours at each location.

Fabulous day with Jay exploring the lakes and other attractions on the itinerary. He provided us lots of great info, helped look for wildlife, and gave us a couple of bonus stops since we did well on time. A great day!
Shawn_C, Jun 2026
Our family had a wonderful time touring the lakes and Banff! We were in a van with 14 people, and our tour guide, Tammy, did an excellent job. She was very knowledgeable about the lakes and the surrounding area, and she also helped take photos of our group, which we really appreciated. It was a fun and memorable experience for everyone.
Judy_M, Jun 2026
This was the best experience I could’ve ever hoped for, mostly thanks to our amazing tour guide, Lou. The man was a wealth of knowledge and kept things fun. We were able to see and do everything we wanted to, and by lucky strike we got to see 3 grizzly bears lounging on the side of the road. It was a mama and her two yearling cubs, and Lou pulled over so we could safely view them and capture some incredible pictures and video. Such a cool experience. Lou gets a 10/10!
Alfred_W, Jun 2026
great tour, covered all the highlights of these locations.. Lou our guide was very good, knew his stuff very helpful. Highly recommend as an easy way to see all these sights

We had a great tour guide/driver, Mark. Very accommodating, great person. We had a small van, full, held 14 people which makes for a very personable tour - you get to know other people, or at least familiar faces and good guide interactions then as well. It becomes more personable and also accommodating. We saw alot of places. The thing with a tour is, everything is fast paced. Even if you stop at a spot for 50 minutes, you have to account for washroom breaks/line ups and times to get to attractions like walking to lodges or lake views and then getting back to the vehicle ON TIME, respecting the tour itinerary and everyone else on the tour, so the day goes by so quickly. It's like a whirlwind. Our tour said 8-11 hours long and it went from 7:30am until 6pm. So quickly though. Many times not enough time to see everything or take everything in because of much needed washroom breaks but still, a great tour. Recommend for sure. Please don't forget to tip your driver/guide as so many do not and they deserve it for all that they do, maneuvering through tricky, full, parking lots, and lots of safe driving etc. Especially for the long days.

It was a great tour and the guide Mike was amazing and really knowledgeable. The tour covers all the main spots around Banff. If you are going solo or just want to take some photos some of the times at the different locations might feel a bit long.
Nicole_I, Jun 2026
Guide was excellent, locations breathtaking. Snowed while at Lake Louise, then sunshine at Emerald Lake. A really wonderful day.
Lyrol_F, Jun 2026
Tammy was a wonderful guide with a warm and pleasant voice that made the journey even more enjoyable. Throughout the tour, she shared fascinating information about the history of the mountains, lakes, and surrounding area, making every stop more meaningful.
