- Lake Louise - Stop 1
- Moraine Lake - Its waters are the most amazing color, a vivid shade of turquoise that changes in intensity through the summer as the glaciers melt. Set in the rugged Valley of the Ten Peaks, Moraine Lake is surrounded by mountains, waterfalls, and rock piles, creating a scene so stunning it almost seems unreal. Sit lakeside and absorb the sights and pure mountain air, or explore further by canoeing and hiking. It’s an iconically jaw-dropping place that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
The road to Moraine Lake is closed during the winter due to heavy snowfall and high avalanche risk. Depending on the conditions, the road opens sometime between the third week of May and the first week of June and closes in October after the Canadian Thanksgiving weekend (the second Monday in October).
- Bow Lake - Stop 2
- Bow Summit - Stop 3
- Peyto Lake - Stop 4
- Mistaya Canyon - Stop 5
- Columbia Icefield Discovery Centre - Stop 6

Amazing Tour! - As this was our first time in Alberta, we decided against renting a car because we wanted to relax and enjoy the scenery. I did a lot of research on the internet to find private transportation and decided on the private Icefields Tour with ABest Transport and Tour Services. They responded to my email inquiry promptly and the booking process was quick and easy.
Our driver Manny was an absolute pleasure. He arrived at our hotel ahead of schedule and let us know that he was there. The SUV that he picked us up in was very clean and comfortable. Manny made it clear that the day was ours to do what we wanted as this was a private tour.
After listening to what we had in mind, he planned the perfect day for us. We stopped at Lake Louise, Bow Lake, and Peyto Lake. Even though the lakes were frozen over, the scenery was stunning. We made a quick stop near the Columbia Icefield and Athabaskan Glacier and also saw some frozen waterfalls.
Some of the stops that are usually done on the tour in summer were closed for winter so we decided to visit Jasper and have lunch. We shared a great meal at the Jasper Brewing Co. After lunch we drove around Jasper and stopped at Patricia and Pyramid Lakes.
Manny made the day special for my son and me. He is personable, entertaining, and very knowledgeable about the area. He is a safe and careful driver. We loved that he took many photos of us.
We also used ABest for our private rides between the Calgary Airport and Banff. I really like that they are a local company. I would use ABest in the future and would recommend this tour.

Incredible Sights - Gerald and Lukas with Brewster sightseeing lead us on a fun adventure to the Ice field with beautiful stops along the way. Gerald always had a smile on his face as we returned to the bus. Lukas shared his silly sense of humor throughout,. We enjoyed all the sights and stories along the way!! Would highly recommend this tour.

Spectacular day viewing the natural beauty of Banff. - It was a special day. Our driver/guide was Jobo and he was prompt. His knowledge of the area allowed to see more things in one day than we ever dreamed. I advise an early start because it is definitely a full day of memory making. I highly recommend this trip on your visit to this area.

Amazing Alberta - We had an amazing tour with the family. We were able to see places we hardly had an idea about. Manny was our tour guide for the day and he was so nice and very accomodating.

Another wonderful day! - Another solid tour from ABest tours. To our delight, we had Manny as our tour guide again! Icefields, Peyto Lake, Bow Lake and an impromptu stop at Mistaya Canyon on our drive back to the hotel was truly an unexpected delight. We couldn’t be happier with the ease of booking through viator.com as well as the wonderful service we received from ABest.

Exploring Banff & Jasper - We had a nice time exploring Banff and Jasper for a couple of days. Arnel is an excellent driver - never a dull moment. He went beyond and above his driving duties and made sure we are safe. Overall, we had a blast. ABest Transport & Tour Services is highly recommended.
