I wrote a long review but lost it. In summary, great two day tour, long drive but saved a bundle in hotel costs Wonderful guide "D" went above and beyond.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the two-day tour and that Dicky made it extra special. We’d love to welcome you on another adventure!
The trip was good but the day before our trip the locations were changed. Banff Gondola and Johnston canyon was canceled the day before our trip. Day one of our trip was great as we saw lake Moraine and lake Louise which were great. Our tour guide Chris was very good. He explained everything clearly and always willing to take photos. The second day we ended up going to locations we did not want to and the locations weren't that great. Overall the trip was good but we didn't know if the trip was going to take place because we had to meet the minimum capacity and we were told that if the minimum capacity isn't met the trip is canceled. So being uncertain about the trip was not amazing. But overall day 1 was very enjoyable and day 2 to Columbia ice field and Crow foot wasn't that great but overall the trip was fun.
Thank you for sharing your detailed feedback. We’re glad to hear that your first day visiting Lake Moraine and Lake Louise with Chris was enjoyable and that he made the experience special by clearly explaining and helping with photos. We sincerely apologize for the changes on the second day and any uncertainty caused by the minimum capacity policy. We understand how that can affect your overall experience. Your feedback is very important to us, and we’ll continue working to improve communication and ensure smoother planning for future trips. We appreciate you choosing us and hope to have the chance to provide an even better experience on your next visit!
We only did the second day of the tour as the itineraries for the tour were changed at the 11th hour and we had already visited the sites on the first day of the tour. They kindly made a satisfactory refund for the first day and we thus joined the tour for the second day. The 1-Day tour we went on was well organized and the tour guide, Chris, besides being a safe driver was very knowledgeable of all the sites visited and also kept us informed along the journey of any notable land marks. His suggestions of avoiding the crowded areas at the various sites was excellent and useful making the tour more enjoyable. i would recommend the tour.
Thank you very much for your detailed feedback! We're glad that Chris made your day enjoyable with his knowledge, safe driving, and helpful tips to avoid crowds. We appreciate your understanding regarding the itinerary change and are happy the refund was satisfactory. Your recommendation means a lot to us, and we hope to welcome you back for more great experiences in the future!
The company provides a ride not information like a tour. It was nice to spend 2 days, seeing sights but almost no information or history about any of the sights and lots of time waiting for the bus. I have great respect for the knowledge of tour guides who love their country and are very informative. This company does not meet the grade of a tour company. It is a business run by people new to Calgary and Canada, who do not know any history, culture or geography of the area. A tour guide has depth of knowledge not obtained from Google. There should be better standards for tour guides so tourists don’t get inaccurate information about an area. This company should not be supported by Canadians or tourists to the Banff area. Do not tour with Banff Journey; it is a terrible example of people living in Canada 3-5 years and poor representation of the profession of tour guides

We bought a 2-day tour in Banff and Rockies and were able to enjoy Banff and see lots of animals along the way. The experience was awesome and both tours and guides were very knowledgeable and polite as well as communication with tour organizer were on point and they were answering all of our questions and helped us with our requests! Top tour in Banff.

I recently joined a tour with Banff Journey, and it was an amazing experience! We visited breathtaking spots like Lake Louise and the serene Lake Minnewanka, and I was in awe of the stunning natural beauty around us. Our guide was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable, ensuring a comfortable pace and sharing fascinating stories about each location, making the journey even more enriching. For travelers who want to explore Banff in depth but are short on time, this tour is a perfect choice. If you're eager to discover the magic of this national park, I highly recommend Banff Journey—you won’t be disappointed!

William provided excellent service. Pickup at the airport, one night hotel stay included along with a great time at Heritage Park, Lake Louise, Johnston Canyon, and Bow Falls. If you are short on time, and want to cram a lot of sightseeing in, this is the tour to take. Excellent value, and William is a great guy.
