Worth getting up early! - It was worth getting up at 3 am to travel to Lake Moraine. Our guide was awesome. He shared a lot of facts about the area. Good time.

Stunning and unforgettable moment! - Definitely a stunning sunrise view and unforgettable moment of Moraine Lake! Canmore Travel delivered a smooth ride experience from start to finish, a very knowledgable guide/driver & a warm-clean van made us forgot all the shivering summer morning (it was a 3-4c in the summer!) once we’ve reached the view point. Thanks Canmore Travel, we definitely can tick this one on our bucket list!!

Wonderful Experience!! - We really enjoyed our sunrise experience at Moraine Lake!! Our guide, Yannick, was very knowledgeable. We got to the lake pretty early and got first dibs on spots. On the drive back, he gave us lots of recommendations for activities and even pointed out some wildlife! Highly recommend booking them!
