Best day ever in the Rockies! - I booked this tour because I had only few days in the Rockies and it was the best dessition to make the most with my time. They pick up you up at your location and the first stop is Lake Louise. Very nice but a bit crowded though. After that, Lake Morraine. You spend at least 1 hour in each lake and the 2 hours in Banff. Enough time to explore this little town either to have a coffee, lunch, some shopping or a nice walk. The day finishes at Lake Minnewanka just before the sunset. Very nice as well but the two first lake are really breathtaking. Marco, our tour guide was very nice, very focus on the details, he even brought me to the best spot to take picture and he explain to us a lot of interesting details about the area. You also have free time yo o on your own. For me that was the perfect mix, with information, freedom and amazing landscapes. If you are just few days in Calgary, I highly recommend this trip as it cover all the most beautiful places of the Rockies and the service is brilliant.

Best excursion in Banff to see the lakes. - This was well worth it and the best excursion we took while visiting the area. The tour guide Teddy was great. He explained in detail the history of the places we went to. He also had a great mix of music. The places we went to were gorgeous and I feel it was sufficient time at the places. I would not book an excursion that has more people than what they had on this excursion.

Best Tour Ever - We booked this trip through a booking company called “Get Your Guide,” but our actual tour was with Rocky Mountain Trips. First off, the communication with Tito was excellent. He even called me the evening before to confirm our location pick up location and time to be there. The day of our trip, our small group of six friends from Oregon were met by Teddy, our guide for the day. We found out another couple from Georgia were joining us and the eight of us were delighted with the extra room in the van and how clean and nice it was. Teddy was constantly cleaning the windows at most stops so we could take photos from inside the van. Teddy gave us a lot of historical information and had great stories to share with us when we were driving from one stop to another. At each stop, Teddy always told us where to go for the best photo shots and he was happy to show off his photography skills to take group photos. With a little encouragement from our group, Teddy dove into Lake Moraine with the water temps at about 1-2 degree Celsius. Teddy found some big horn sheep along the road and gave us excellent recommendations for places to see/eat in Banff. This was the highlight of our Canada Trip and we highly recommend booking tours with Rocky Mountain Trips and Teddy as our your tour guide.

I recommend this tour - A memorable visiting from Banff lakes with good friends poured the laughter and happiness added to the trip. My brother in law Teddy was an active tour guide, full of energy and experience.

Zen-ful Education: - Where do I start? Such a peaceful experience with Rocky Mountain Trips. I learned so many things about Banff, Calgary, Cochrane, Lake Louise, and Lake Minnewanka. Tito was my driver and I met Teddy who was driving the other bus as well. Both guys were truly genuine and accommodating. I even heard Tito give some pointers to someone about Banff since we have 2 hours there! I got to take a break and eat while still exploring the outdoors, a Zen experience that I truly needed. Lake Louise was busy as it was a holiday and it was great to see all the tourists, I found Banff and Lake Minnewanka as my favourite stops personally. You get to hike a little bit and it’s a great introduction to all that we have to offer in the great outdoors in Alberta. I highly recommend going on this tour!

Absolutely the BEST Banff tour in Calgary - Far and away one of the best private tours we’ve ever taken. The destinations were breathtaking but the experience with Tito and Marco of Rocky Mountain Trips was what made it extra special. From booking to drop off they were incredibly professional, fun, accommodating, caring, and super knowledgeable about the area and it’s history. Wow! We couldn’t have been happier and more impressed. Thank you for making our trip so easy and fun.
