Absolutely amazing unique experience! - Wow what a unique experience - seeing the beautiful sunset and then incredible stargazing with the milky way, big dipper and even a small glimpse of the aurora. Jacob was really knowledgeable and fun and kept us all safe. We would highly recommend to do if you are in Banff you cannot get a more brilliant experience!

Great Sky, great rep - Night Sky is always a spectacular sight. While this was not the darkest place we have seen stars , Ben was entertaining and informative. Can’t fault even though for a couple of hours it’s a bit pricey.

Starry starry night - Ben was a fantastic guide!! First time attending a tour alone and it was so much fun - I was a bit worried about bears but none were seen! Saw a shooting star, learned how to take photos in the dark, and the Milky Way was visible. It was a top notch experience, something I would definitely recommend!!! My white sneakers got very muddy and I wished I had worn a rain jacket bc the benches were very wet after the recent storm but it was still a 10/10!

Beautiful and Relaxed Stargazing Walk. - My girlfriend and I booked this experience as part of our anniversary trip and were not disappointed! The hike was very well structured, starting at the parking lot and following an easy path between several different star gazing spots. Our guide Ben was funny, charismatic, and invested in us having a great experience. He was very knowledgeable and discussed lots of historical information and tidbits about the surrounding area. He made sure to point out different constellations, and gave us a quick tutorial on nighttime photography to ensure we could get some amazing pictures of the beautiful night sky. We got some really stunning ones! My girlfriend is normally a little more on edge at nighttime, however Ben made sure that everyone felt safe and reassured on our walk. We had great time and would definitely recommend!

A starry night to remember - Phenomenal tour - Our guide Ben was great: knowledgeable, funny, helpful, personable. He picked the perfect spots for stargazing, pointed out the best photo ops (assisted those of us who are not tech savvy with our iphones) and we were fortunate enough to see The Northern LIghts, a sky full of stars (lucked out with perfect weather), even caught a photo of Perseus between the mountains. Highly recommend - ask for Ben!

Nighttime sightseeing in Banff - Ben was a very a friendly funny guy and good guide. Helped us set up good photos in the darkness. Unfortunately there was a nearly full moon so not as many stars visible.
