Amazing Day!

Excellent tour! Went with my two kids ages 5 and 9 and they loved it. It was a fantastic day! The only thing is I wish we had 2 hours for downtown Banff to shop and eat. That part felt slightly rushed. But Sammy the guide is funny and knowledgeable and made us feel well taken care of! The views and sights you’ll see are wonderful!

Laeasy is en excellent guide and perfect driver. We spent a unforgettable day. Breathtaking views multiple by head-spinning fresh air It's truly amazing experience! The only drawback of this trip was short time dedicated to gondola part. For extra 100ca I would like to spend some more time on mountain top.

This was an outstanding experience for the entire family. Our guide, LAYSE was outstanding. She was so kind patient professional, and really was knowledgeable about the experience and what we were going to see. Our experience at the gondola was outstanding and lake Louise, and Moraine Lake oh my gosh, we’re both amazing.
