Great Banff Trip - Dan was my tour guide for this trip. He is very knowledgeable about Banff and provided very insightful introduction and explanation along the way. He is very passionate about his role and answered a lot of our questions with great patience. He also offered 2 extra places for us to visit since our group was right on top of the schedule. He did above and beyond and I truly recommend everyone to take Banff Trip with this provider.

Beautiful trip - It was enjoyable and beautiful. First we were picked up by Murray downtown and off we went to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. The drive is so scenic and the weather was gorgeous. Later on we transferred into another van. Rick was our driver. He took us to Peyto Lake and Bow Lake. These lakes are totally different from the other two. The views were breathtaking. At the end we spent 90 minutes in Banff which is a beautiful village with lots of restaurants and stores. I recommend this tour. Just wish they had picked us ip and dropped off at our downtown hotel. I found out at tge end of the tour that the do stop at our hotel.

What a journey it has been - Visiting the glaciers, mountains & the Great Lakes near Calgary was truly unforgettable. What made it even more special was our guide, Patrick. He’s not only knowledgeable but also incredibly engaging—blending science, a touch of fiction, and fascinating history into every story he shares. His energy and passion kept us inspired throughout the journey, making each stop feel alive with meaning. It wasn’t just sightseeing—it was learning, laughing, and being motivated all at once.

Highly recommended - This was an amazing experience. Our guide, Gordon, was knowledgeable and hilarious. Best way to get multiple lakes in. Loved that this tour included Peyto Lake since many don’t. I highly highly recommend this tour. Also, my bf absolutely loved the tuna sandwich provided for lunch lol

Prepare for lots of driving - Lots of driving but well worth the views. The down side is you can’t make any unscheduled stops. If you see wildlife while driving you will pass it by. We also lost about 1/2 an hour while we waited on sandwiches. I would suggest to the tour group that you pre order and have ready so you can get on the road sooner. We didn’t really have a lot of time at each stop. Also, you cannot eat on the bus. Just FYI

Hmmm - Not a good experience including last min pick up time change, different order of itineraries than “what to expect”, last min notice of vehicle change plan and not feeling safe driver skill-tailgating, frequent lane changes without signal, doing something else while driving, lastly unbearable music selections only the driver dancing while driving. Downtown Banff for only an hour was not enough. Lunch pick up and Bow lake/Peyto lake takes a lot of time and wouldn’t cover these unpleasant experiences. Rather I would pick less spots for longer stay for each. Started at 7:50 am and ended at 9pm. Many pickups/drop off options take more time as well.
