Unique experience - A spectacular experience. The views are million dollars, the weather was perfect, ranging from blue sky to clouds to rain to rainbow… The guide Brian, a true Albertan, down to earth and knowledgeable of the history, also a kind and caring person, have made this experience unforgettable. Highly recommend

a must have tour with experienced team - This tour is a hidden gem! Great hospitality, on time and the hot chocolate moment on the sunrise at Moraine Lake was priceless.

Actually i wanted to go... - Actually i wanted to go there with my own car but later I find out that Moraine Lake road is closed for the public. This is the only way to there not just for the sunrise but also for other times as well. No regrets. They picked me up on time and the tour in general was great. Our guide was such an energetic person. The best part was the hot coffee that the guide prepared for us. Felt like travelling with family. Thank you for this great tour.

This tour will get you to the lakes for sunrise...at a price. - This tour will get you early access to Moraine Lake for Sunrise light, then over to Lake Louise for an hour and a half. Moraine sunrise tour is very popular, and space is limited once at the overlook. Lot's of tourists jockeying for a clean photo position. If you want to experience Moraine lake, you must take a tour, there is no self drive option. Our driver/guide got us down to Lake Louise early which was great to walk out before the bigger crowds followed shortly after. There is an overlook you can hike up, and is it UP, but worth the effort IMO. Overall this was an okay tour, but much too expensive. The Driver was on time, but no coffee or hot beverage was made available as advertised in the booking. He did a good job of being a "guide" offering information and trivia of the lakes. He also made a few wrong turns once back into Banff returning us to the drop-off. The price of the tour doesn't offer great value but if you want to see both lakes before the all-day crowds, there is little in other options.
