Great tour and dinner - JJ and Flora were fantastic tour guides! This is a must-do when visiting Banff. The scenery was stunning and the gondola to the top of Sulphur Mountain at night was spectacular. Dinner was quite good...lots of options at the buffet. Perfect for families and groups.

How to have the best day in Banff - Jodie and Andre made our day tour so perfect. They told us all about the history and made it a very memorable day. Our gondola timing was perfect to avoid the busier times and lunch was very good. They had it so well planned and we did so much. The hot chocolate and cookies after our lake boat trip was a lovely touch to end the perfect day.

Great half day winter trip around Banff - Carson and Ellie, our guides, were wonderful! They had so much local information to share with us about history, geology, restaurants, and more. The tour had multiple stops- photography at Two Jacks lake, snowshoeing at Lake Minawanka, touring Cave and Basin National Historic Landmark, photography at Bow Falls, and a gondola ride up to the top of Sulphur Mountain to take in the expansive views of the valley. Along the way they also shared local snacks with us after snowshoeing and at the top of Sulphur Mountain. It was a great way to see Banff on a tight schedule in the wintertime without the hassles of planning the day and driving yourself around. Next time we return (hopefully in the summer) we'll book another tour with Brewster Sightseeing. Thank you so much!!!

Winter Wonderland Tour - Booked this tour through Get Your Guide. Fully worth the money. So much to see but you don't feel rushed. Still plenty of time to take pictures. Jon B and Taya were friendly and knowledgeable guides. This tour fully exceeded my expectations!

Winter wonderland tour-do it!!! - We were collected on time by driver Micheal and host Ellie. Both made our day !
1st stop a view of Two Jacks lake. A frozen snowy wonderland. Then on to lake Minawanka where we donned snow shoes and headed out onto the lake. A great experience. Then back to bus fir hot chocolate
We then went to the cave and basin the start of the national park. Then bow falls and finally the gondola at sulphur mountain. All in all a fun educational and fab day. Thanks to the other 4 guests and Micheal and Ellie. A new tour and well worth it

Outstanding experience! - We had such a great time on this tour. Ellie and Mona were exceptional tour guides! The winter wonderland sights were spectacular...like out of a fairy tale. Top of the gondola is something you must not miss. Outstanding value for the money.

Gorgeous scenery, great guides! - I took the Winter Sightseeing Tour with Banff Gondola this week and it was so stunning. It's off-season, so our tour group was very small which made the experience really personal. Ellie and Brad are great guides! Friendly, funny, and so nice. So knowledgeable about everything around Banff including giving me some good food recommendations at the end of the tour. Snowshoeing on Lake Minnewanka was by far my favorite activity, with the stunning view from the gondola coming in as a close second. We also got to spot some wildlife on our tour! Overall really fun way to spend an afternoon in a new place that you aren't quite comfortable venturing out on your own yet. This is also a great option if you don't want to hire a car to get to some of the more out of the way places. Thanks Ellie and Brad for making my trip to Banff even more spectacular than it already was!
