Itinerary
The waters of Moraine Lake seem like they have been poured straight from the heavens into the Valley of the Ten Peaks. The towering mountains encircle the deep blue surface of the lake in a formation so extraordinary, only Mother Nature could shape it. Piles of boulders have been seemingly dropped by the hands of giants, forming miniature mountains near the lakeshore. Let yourself be drawn to the trails that wind amongst the rocks and travel beyond to alpine meadows and sparkling lakes. With new visitation restrictions in place for Summer 2023, joining this small group tour is the best way to guarantee your visit to Moraine Lake.
Lake Louise is a glacial lake within Banff National Park in Alberta, Canada. It is named after the Princess Louise Caroline Alberta, the fourth daughter of Queen Victoria and the wife of the Marquess of Lorne, who was the Governor General of Canada from 1878 to 1883. The turquoise colour of the water comes from rock flour carried into the lake by melt-water from the glaciers that overlook the lake. The lake has a surface of 0.8 km² and is drained through the 3 km long Louise Creek into the Bow River. Moraine Lake and Lake Agnes are also accessible from Lake Louise.

Fantastic beautiful sometimes the weather is not favorable but its very okey and very very nice. People are very considerate
Caroline was a great guide. Moraine Lake is always beautiful. Comfortable way to get there. Easy with kids.
Far better option than using the public shuttle service that you have to reserve and still Que for ages for. Caroline was great fun and full of positive energy for the whole trip. She was very knowledgeable about the areas with interesting facts and tips including how to save money. She was very comical with her witty lines and jokes and a very pleasant person and proficient driver!
Caroline is delightful!! A great driver, very informative and very very funny!
A memorable trip and well worth the money. The tour guide communicated well as the tour started a bit late. Caroline, our tour guide was five stars. Would definitely recommend.
The visit to Moraine Lake and Lake Louise was excellent. We met the driver at the pick-up location and boarded a comfortable coach to the lakes. Driver was perfectly on time and clear in explaining the visit and appointments for the pickups. The lakes were beautiful and there was plenty of time to see them. Also special thanks to the driver as I mismatched the date of the booking and he was able to put us in today's visit managing the change with the organization.
The driver was very knowledgeable. The bus was not what I expected. It was small, cramped and hot. I expected a big tour bus.
Vehicle sizes are assigned based on total group size. I am not sure what made you think a coach bus was guaranteed, as that is not specified in your booking confirmation
This was a well organized trip to two of Banff's must-see attractions, with a knowledgeable driver and stops long enough to satisfy most tourists.
Thank you for your kind feedback. Is that 4 star a typo then😂
It was a memorable trip thanks to Sean who was funny and knowledgeable about the lakes and the surrounding areas. I’ve visited lake Louise and Moraine lake many times but my current experience was the best! Thank you Sean for going above and beyond!
Jack was super friendly and knowledgeable! He was great!!! We really enjoyed our day. This tour was very kid friendly . Bring extra layers in case
