Amazing tour!!! - This tour gave me a great memory! I joined by myself and was nervous but our tour guide Elizabeth was the nicest and friendly tour guide I’ve ever met! She taught us a lot of knowledge and it was easy to understand for non-English native speaker like me. I highly recommend this tour if you visit Banff!

Once in a lifetime experience - I went on an aviator tour the second time in Calgary. My first tour was in Montreal which was an amazing experience too. Coming back to the Calgary tour to Banff, Lake Louis, Lake Moraine and Johnston Canyon. The trip was once in a life time kind of an experience. The locations especially Lake Moraine is something out of this world. Both the driver of the bus named Alex and the tour guide called Storm were fabulous in their knowledge and skills. The whole journey and experience was wonderful. Highly recommend.

Great trip for first timer to Banff - Ben was a great tour guide. Lake Louise and Lake Moraine were amazing. Was a little disappointed that we were not able to go under the falls of Johnston Canyon, but they couldn't do anything about the crowds. Maybe could have given us more time thrre?? Lunch was also a bit hurried due to crowds.

Amazing tour - I am from Calgary and have been to Banff/Lake Louise many times but this was my first tour on a bus. It was an amazing experience. Jackson and Alex (guide&driver) were awesome and informative. Being able to go to Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Johnston Canyon and Banff townsite without having to worry about traffic or parking was wonderful. This was such a great birthday trip for me. Thank you for making it such a memorable day. Will definitely do this again.

Great tour - Great tour especially with all of the construction going on at Lake Louise. It was very nice to be able to ride the bus and not have to worry about figuring out how to navigate the closed areas. It did not look like any private vehicles could go to Lake Morraine at all so this tour allowed us to see that magnificent lake.

Good day in Banff - Jackson was a great tour guide. The stops were well timed and everything went smoothly. The only issue was the bus’s air conditioning wasn’t working but they traded out the bus for a new one after the first stop.

Nice sampling of the Banff area. - Seeing Lake Louise for the first time is breathtaking. Nature at its best! But it was very crowded, if you go further around to the right side of lake crowds thin out.
