Just stunning! - Charlie was an informative guide and clearly passionate about the environment. Views were absolutely stunning.
I left my backpack in the van and the company responded to my query and returned it very quickly which was imperative due to myflight home the next day

Breathtaking sights - My friend and I took the trip with Clare as our guide. She was amazing. She had a wealth of knowledge she shared and helped us find our way around at each stop so we made the most of our sightseeing in our allowed time. The sights were breathtaking and the hikes were easy. I highly recommend this tour!

A good choice - This trip is perfect if you want to do a bit more than just take a few pictures at the lakes but you don’t want to spend the entire day hiking in one area. It is a small group tour with nice personal touches like complementary coffee and water refills. Our informative and friendly guide and driver, Wendzy picked us up from Banff at 7.30, so we got to Moraine Lake by 8.30, well ahead of a lot of the crowds. The two hour stop allowed us to climb the rock pile and have time to walk the length of the stunning lake. Our next stop was the far busier Lake Louise. Again the two hour stop gave us time to escape the crowds and walk the length of the lake. It is possible to see these places by public transport but I think it would be hard work to fit them both into one day. This trip make our day effortless and I would highly recommend the company and the destinations.

Nice excursion and done in the right order - This day to Lake Moraine and Lake Louise was accompanied by Guide Pablo.
He was neat on time and fortunately everyone boarded at the same location.
He knew a lot about the area, the creation of the two lakes and all other things that were current in this area.
The Guide had foreseen that Lake Louise is always busy and therefore decided to go to Lake Moraine first, where it was still very quiet.
Upon arrival he had arranged coffee and tea for everyone and afterwards a chocolate bear.

Great way to see Lake Louise and Moraine Lake when staying in Canmore or Banff. Great experience. - Great way to see Lake Louise and Moraine Lake when staying in Canmore. We were on time for each of the pickups so we had a bonus visit to see the iconic rail photo at Morant’s Curve. There was even a parked train to replicate the famous original photo!

Unforgettable Adventure with Into the Wild Tours - My wife and I had an amazing trip with Into the Wild Tours to Moraine Lake and Lake Louise today. The tour was impeccably organized, and our guide was both knowledgeable and friendly, making the experience truly enjoyable. The stunning beauty of the lakes left us in awe, and the small group size allowed for a more personalized and intimate adventure. We highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the breathtaking landscapes of the Canadian Rockies. Thank you, Into the Wild Tours, for an unforgettable journey!

Smooth travels - Excellent way to experience Morainne Lake and Lake Louise. Pablo was excellent. Full of great information.
The time you spend at each site is own your own. So you choose how you spend it. Highly recommend. Easy in and out versus the craziness of parking.

overall satisfied - We had the sunrise tour with Wenzy to Lake Moraine and Louise. Unfortunately the sky was cloudy and there was no sunrise at all. But the light was amazing. Wenzy took us from the Hotel and we had a good tour. She informed us about the tour. At Lake Moraine we got blankets, lamps, coffee and information where to go for best view and hike afterwards. we went to Lake Louise, already quite busy. Same here, got good info for small hikings and met her after 2 hrs for ride back. On way back she gave us many information about lakes, history and for our travellings. I am completely satisfied about this tour. Mostly about not having searched a parking slot that would not have been available! worth to go! thank You Wenzy!
