Tour guide Ben was knowledgeable and thoughtful throughout the trip. Despite the cramped itenary he still made sure we had sufficient time to visit every location which made the tour enjoyable. Banff is such a breathtaking place that I would recommend.

The tour was great, started on time and had plenty of time at each stop. The guide (Super mario) was friendly and a fountain of information. He took pictures for everyone at each stop with recommendations where to take the pictures. He also gave a lot of recommendations on what to do and where to eat in Banff.

Our first time doing a tour. Layse was our tour guide she was sweet and funny. The views of the ride from Calgary to Banff was the most amazing moments we’ve ever experienced!🤩 We would like to do this again soon!

We had a very enjoyable tour yesterday. The whole experience was comfortable, with a relaxed pace and enough time to explore all the places we wanted to visit. Our tour guide York was professional and not overly talkative, which made the trip feel pleasant and stress-free. Overall, it was a well-organised and comfortable tour that we really enjoyed!

Andy our guide was super lovely. We didn’t decide to do the gondola or the hot springs so he took us to Banff town and the cascade gardens so we could explore in the morning. You could tell he really loved his job as he provided so much information on the way. He was very punctual and got us to each location on time and overall such a good day!

Kenneth was our guide and he was absolutely BRILLIANT! Super friendly and welcoming as soon as we got on the bus, he handed out treats & water for us all constantly. You could tell he really loved his job. He provided stories on our journey and lots of information from Calgary to Banff. His choice of music was perfect as well. When we got to each location he even went out with us and helped with photos and shared jokes which really made our day! Best tour ever, don’t hesitate to book! 😊

My shuttle reservation failed, so I booked this tour instead, and it was the best decision. It was wonderful thanks to our guide, Andrew. Even though I couldn't understand everything in English, he was very kind and explained things well. It was truly great!

The trip was smooth and great! My only suggestion wouldve been some more time at both lakes as it felt we could have spent more time at each. But overall would 100% recommend if anyone wants a half day long lakes trip!

What to know before visiting Banff

What to do in Banff year-round

Banff is best known for outdoor adventures and scenic tours, led by Tours and Cultural experiences in booking volume. The year follows dramatic seasonality: Klook booking data show a summer spike with July through October marked as busy and peak months, while winter months like December are very quiet. That means you can expect hiking, sightseeing drives and day tours to dominate the busiest months, while quieter months suit relaxed sightseeing and cultural experiences. Decide whether you want festival-season energy or peaceful alpine calm — Klook booking data helps time that choice.

When to visit Banff and what to expect

Peak booking activity falls in August, while December is the quietest month, according to Klook booking data. Prices rise and fall through the year: the median price series shows low rates in December and May, then a big jump in January and October; some busy months (July–September) have higher demand without the absolute highest median price, so crowds and prices don't always move together. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for December through May; if you want lively peak-season atmosphere, pick July to October.

Month Demand Level Typical Price
January Very quiet PHP 17,602
February Very quiet PHP 13,499
March Quieter than usual PHP 4,400
April Very quiet PHP 4,281
May Quieter than usual PHP 3,211
June Busier than usual PHP 3,508
July Peak demand PHP 5,233
August Peak demand PHP 5,768
September Peak demand PHP 6,065
October Peak demand PHP 13,796
November Quieter than usual PHP 4,103
December Very quiet PHP 3,152

Demand is bookings in that month compared with a typical month, from historical Klook booking data, grouped into the demand levels above; typical price is the median paid on Klook in that month; prices are shown with their currency code. Based on Klook booking data, July 2025 – June 2026.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Most travellers lock in activities about 28 days ahead, and the earliest planners book around 65 days out, according to Klook booking data, so plan at least a few weeks in advance. That planning matters more for the peak months (July–October) when demand climbs; for very quiet months you can be more flexible, though availability and specific departures may still vary. Book experiences on Klook once your dates are set to secure preferred times and suppliers — it's an easy way to compare options and keep your itinerary flexible while avoiding last-minute disappointment.
