Wonderful e- bike tour. Bikes were excellent and our tour guide Corey was phenomenal. We had a beautiful evening (a bit chilly so dress warmly if temps drop!) after a few days of rain. We saw several elk and water fowl. Although the tour was 12 miles it was a breeze with the e assist.
A very enjoyable cycle through the beautiful nature surrounding Banff. Our guide Meghan was very professional and helpful and brought us to some amazing spots. I highly recommend the tour.
Corey was a fantastic guide. Showed us lovely spots and nature in Banff and was very considerate of our comfort and safety. Highly recommend for a relaxing adventure in Banff.
Hi Camilla, Thank you for your wonderful review! We're so happy to hear you and your family had such a relaxing adventure. We'll be sure to pass your kind words along to Corey. He'll be delighted to hear that his knowledge of the area, attention to your comfort, and focus on safety helped make your experience so enjoyable. Thank you for your recommendation, and we hope to welcome your family back for another adventure in Banff soon! Banff Adventures
People at the desk were very nice. But we realized that you don’t need to use this 3rd party booking company that adds a commission to make a reservation. Whether biking, fishing or boating, book it directly for less cost.
Hi John Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify how Banff Adventures operates. You're correct that Banff Adventures is a locally owned booking company that partners with many of the area's top activity providers. While our fly fishing experiences may be priced differently than booking directly with the operator, this is the exception rather than the rule. For the vast majority of the tours, attractions, and rentals we offer, guests pay the same price as booking direct—and in many cases, thanks to exclusive promotions and package savings, they actually pay less by booking through us. Many guests also choose to book with Banff Adventures because they value the convenience of comparing experiences in one place, planning multiple activities with a single reservation, and receiving personalized recommendations and support from our local team before and during their trip. We understand that every traveler has different preferences, and we appreciate you sharing yours.
Didn’t give option of a smaller bike or even tandem or 2 seater … so had to sit out. Neighboring companies offered!

Beautiful ebike tour to Johnson Canyon. Michael was great. Easy ride and hike. Great way to spend an afternoon. It is only a bike ride out then van back, and takes the full 4 hours. Very safe and beautiful scenery
