Beautiful Banff - I had an incredible time on this tour whilst visiting from Australia. Robyn was extremely knowledgeable of all aspects of Calgary and the sites we visited, was extremely engaging and made it an experience of a lifetime. The scenery was what dreams are made of - definitely a bucket list item ticked off and can’t recommend enough!

Terrific Views of Lakes Moraine and Louise - Lakes Moraine and Louise are a must visit if you are in the Banff area. Lawrence, our guide for the day , provided light and informative information during our tour which lasted more than six hours. We had free time in downtown Banff during the tour to eat lunch. We also spent a brief time exploring parts of Banff such as a waterfall and renown hotel that provided beautiful views of the mountains. This tour is a very good value for the price. I would recommend this tour for couples and families. There is some climbing up steep stairs at Lake Moraine if you wish to get a higher view of the lake
