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!
Both Johnston Canyon and Lake Minnewanka offer quintessential Canadian Rockies scenery while catering to different styles of exploration: Johnston Canyon provides an accessible, family-friendly trek along suspended catwalks through a dramatic limestone gorge to powerful lower and upper waterfalls, though it can become quite busy during peak hours; meanwhile, Lake Minnewanka offers expansive, serene alpine landscapes across a deep glacial lake, perfect for scenic boat cruises, kayaking, waterside picnics, and wildlife viewing beneath towering peaks
The tour guide, Mike, is knowledgeable and professional. we got to see all the sites recommended by him.
The driver arrived on time, provided detailed explanations along the way, and drove smoothly. At each stop, they made sure everyone was back on the bus and even thoughtfully dropped guests off at their designated hotels. Although the return trip was an hour late, it was absolutely worth it! We visited every attraction, and you could freely choose between the gondola, hot springs, or downtown area without necessarily paying extra. Starting from and returning to the city center was very convenient, eliminating the need for an extra night in Banff and saving money on round-trip bus fares, which are more expensive than this tour. Highly recommended!
The guide was really great. Thank you sincerely for the unforgettable experience with your meticulous care and the best schedule.
Our guide was great! he was very funny
