Full-day Banff and Yoho lakes tour from Calgary: Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Emerald Lake, Natural Bridge, Johnston Canyon.

“The time allowed at each venue was enough, however the Johnson Canyon was too much time. Banff having 90 minutes would have been a better choice and Johnson Canyon 45 minutes. I do understand that it took sometime to get to the canyon, but it could be scaled down and added to Banff.”

Banff half-day with Lake Louise and Moraine (summer) or Emerald (winter), with pickup, small-group touring, and key fees included.

“The views are amazing. The stops on the tour were perfect . D the ‘guide’ was a lovely person and he was extremely helpful but he was really only a driver we got no information about our stops except from a sheet of paper given when we boarded the bus. The worst part of trip was the bus it was filthy, extremely dirty. It is also a small bus 13 passengers, fortunately for us we had only 8 so it made it a little more comfortable but we did have a suitcase on board that took up 2 seats. I wouldn’t recommend this tour as I’m sure there are others…”
