Anju is the best!

Anju, our guide, was exceptional. So Knowledgeable of all things Banff. We toured 12 different sites with her. She navigates the crowds and parking with ease. We felt we truly got the Banff overview in a single excursion.

Amazing Premium Tour Experience with Anju!

We had such an amazing experience with Anju! She took us on a wonderful tour with stops at 10 different locations, and from beginning to end she was an absolute pleasure. Anju was so knowledgeable and shared interesting history along with funny stories that made the tour even more enjoyable. The vehicle was premium, spacious, and extremely comfortable, which made the entire experience feel very special. She was also fantastic with the kids, keeping them engaged and included throughout the day. Another huge plus—she took absolutely beautiful photos of our family and knew all the best spots for pictures! Anju truly went above and beyond. If you’re looking for a premium, comfortable, personalized experience that is still affordable, I highly recommend this company and especially Anju. She made our day unforgettable! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An unforgettable day

Thanks to Anju for the extraordinary day we spent traveling through Banff Park! This excursion is a great way to discover the main must-see spots of this park in one day. Anju guides us calmly and lets us pleasantly enjoy the different spots. Anju gave us a lot of information about the culture, nature, and wildlife of the area, and we were lucky enough to see 3 brown bears and 2 grizzlies. The day started with a magnificent sunrise by Lake Minnewanka, then we followed up with must-see places like Lake Louise, Moraine, Peyto, and spots that were less touristy and just as beautiful. We specified that we had our own car because we organized our road trip personally and like freedom, but very sincerely, this excursion helped us discover spots that we would not necessarily have accessed on our own. Anju is at once a very good driver, guide, and photographer. She is attentive to the travelers' requests, she is patient, and she speaks slowly with people who do not master English perfectly. We thank her for her kindness and the passion for her job. In short, a wonderful excursion that is really worth it, go for it!

Recommend "private" tour

We would definitely recommend the (mostly) private tour with Andy and Wild Northern Journey. There were six of us (in our 50s, 60s and 70s) to see all the notable sights around Banff in a 12-seat, high-top van which was very suitable for a 10-hour day. Andy was super personable and easy to get along with thoughout the experience. He was great about taking pictures and videos at every stop. At one point, people from another WNJ tour climbed into our van for the Moraine Lake portion of day which was awkward and def a buzzkill. But as it was for just one site it didn’t dampen the overall experience. The sites speak for themselves - stunning despite big August crowds (including the six of us). Some tips: National park bathrooms are nasty. Suggest skipping the coffee that morning. Most 70-year-olds will find some of the walking over awkward terrain -- especially at Moraine and Peyto lakes -- to be too much — otherwise a strong mix of sitting and moving. Andy fills in the rest with lots of good historic knowledge and witty banter. Lunch options are meh. Consider bringing a packed lunch as a bird-in-the-hand option. We ate at the sit-down Lake Louise Village Grill which was packed, took longer than we wanted and was, well, meh.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your day with Andy and appreciated his knowledge, photography, and sense of humor. We’re also very sorry about the awkward experience during the Moraine Lake portion. Just to clarify, **Moraine Lake is operated as a shared shuttle portion of our tours due to Parks regulations and to maximize guests in a single vehicle for Moraine lake.** This is part of our daily practice and is clearly mentioned on our OTA platforms and company website too. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience and truly appreciate your understanding. We’re glad it didn’t take away from your overall experience. Thank you again for choosing Wild Northern Journey :)
