The Lower Spiral Tunnel Viewpoint, located in Yoho National Park, British Columbia, offers a unique and fascinating glimpse into the engineering marvel of the Canadian Pacific Railway's Spiral Tunnels. Constructed in the early 20th century to address the steep gradients of the Kicking Horse Pass, these tunnels are a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance.
Natural Bridge is an impressive natural rock formation that spans the flow of the Kicking Horse River west of Field, where the slower-moving waters from the Field valley flats begin their descent through a canyon to be joined by the Amiskwi River. The Natural Bridge lookout presents visitors with the opportunity to view the formation from a variety of different vantage points, with interpretive displays explaining the physical processes at work. The bridge can easily be reached by car just 3km (1.9 miles) from Field on Emerald Lake Road.
Emerald Lake in Yoho National Park, British Columbia, is a stunning alpine lake renowned for its vibrant emerald green waters, caused by fine glacial silt. Surrounded by the majestic peaks of the Canadian Rockies, including Mount Burgess and Wapta Mountain, the lake offers a breathtaking backdrop. The 5.2-kilometer Emerald Lake Trail provides easy access for hikers to enjoy panoramic views. Canoeing and kayaking are popular in summer, while winter transforms the area into a haven for cross-country skiing and snowshoeing. The historic Emerald Lake Lodge offers cozy accommodations and dining with spectacular views. Rich in biodiversity, the area is home to diverse flora and fauna, including wildflowers, elk, deer, and various bird species. Easily accessible from the town of Field, Emerald Lake is a prime destination for nature lovers and photographers, offering serene and picturesque landscapes year-round.
Takakkaw Falls, located in Yoho National Park, British Columbia, is one of Canada's highest and most spectacular waterfalls, plunging 373 meters (1,224 feet) in a dramatic cascade. The name "Takakkaw" is derived from the Cree word for "magnificent," an apt description of this awe-inspiring natural wonder. The falls are fed by the Daly Glacier, part of the Waputik Icefield, ensuring a powerful flow, especially in late spring and early summer during peak meltwater season. The base of the falls offers a close-up view of the thundering water and a cool mist, creating a refreshing experience on warm days. Takakkaw Falls is not only a photographer's dream but also a popular spot for hikers, with trails like the Iceline Trail providing stunning vistas of the falls and surrounding landscape.
Lake Louise, located in Banff National Park, Alberta, is famed for its stunning turquoise waters and the majestic Victoria Glacier backdrop.

A hub for outdoor activities, Lake Louise features canoeing, hiking, and in winter, ice skating and skiing at the nearby Lake Louise Ski Resort. The Lake Agnes Tea House Trail provides rewarding views and a cozy spot for refreshments. The Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise, a historic hotel on the lake's edge, offers luxurious accommodations and dining with spectacular views. Wildlife such as grizzly bears and elk are commonly seen in the area.

Having a wonderful experience exploring Banff, Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. Banff Explorer Make our Ride more Comfortable and Fun. Will definitely use their service back 🤙🏽
Let me start by saying the trip was almost impossible for me to plan. I spoke to many tour providers but still pivoted back to them. They were very helpful, patient and I totally felt that they wanted me to get what I wanted. Very professional group too. They answered all my questions, made alternative suggestions to destinations that were not doable due to time constraints. Mine was a big group of 56 so sometime between May and August there we so many small changes and they carefully curated this tour so that everyone was happy! Amazing amazing amazing! The joiners in the tour said they would want the same group again in any of their future ventures to Banff! Price was very competitive and the service? Excellent! Banff Explorer, you made me look good to the group :) I truly appreciate meeting you and working with you!
Super friendly, professional, everything was explained very well. Would reserve with them for all my next trip ! Would give 6 stars if possible
