Emerald Lake, located in Yoho National Park, is known for its striking green waters, created by mineral-rich runoff from the surrounding mountains. It’s a quieter, more serene spot compared to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, perfect for those looking for a peaceful escape. Activities: Canoeing on the lake Scenic walks along the shoreline Hiking trails like the Emerald Lake Loop
Also located in Yoho National Park, the Natural Bridge is a stunning rock formation where the Kicking Horse River has carved out a bridge of stone. It’s a great spot for photos, as the water rushes dramatically underneath the arch. Activities: Short walk to the bridge from the parking area Photographing the river and surrounding scenery
A beautiful spot for hiking, Johnston Canyon is a deep, narrow gorge with waterfalls cascading down its rock walls. The trail follows the canyon’s path, leading to both the Lower Falls and Upper Falls. It’s particularly breathtaking in the fall when the leaves turn vibrant colors, or in winter when the waterfalls freeze into ice sculptures.

Aashish was extremely knowledgeable and kind. He takes amazing pictures and tries to accommodate everyone. He explains everything thoroughly and is always on time. I highly recommend this tour. It’s a great trip to see multiple places in short doses, so then you can return another day. Side note, I recommend you bringing a sweatshirt or jacket. It was supposed to be warmer that day and wound up being freezing so everyone was buying sweatshirts/jackets. Save your money lol.

Wonderful day trip to some of Canada's most beautiful national parks. This trip visits 2 national park- Yoho and Banff. Yoho is actually in BC, not Alberta so it's a good bonus. Not only do you visit 3 great lakes, you also get to hike around Johnston's Canyon which most tours break up so you get all the major hits in one tour.
Thank you so much for your detailed and wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed exploring the beautiful national parks of Banff and Yoho, along with the stunning lakes and Johnston Canyon. We're glad you were able to experience so many highlights in one well-planned tour. Your kind words about the itinerary and overall experience mean a lot to us.
