Itinerary
Lake Louise is straight out of a dream—shimmering turquoise water, towering mountain peaks, and the iconic Fairmont Château as the perfect backdrop. Whether you’re snapping photos, strolling along the shore, or just soaking in the view, this place is pure magic. Trust us, no picture can ever do it justice—you have to see it for yourself!
Moraine Lake is the kind of place that takes your breath away—crystal-clear, impossibly blue water surrounded by the rugged peaks of the Valley of the Ten Peaks. Climb up the Rockpile for that famous postcard view, or just stand by the shore and soak in the unreal beauty. It’s one of those spots that feels too perfect to be real—but it is, and you’re here! (Moraine Lake is only open from June 1st to October 13th. Will be replaced by Marble Canyon when its closed)
Every year, thousands of photographers all over the world come to take pictures of these lakes.
You will be suprised when you hear the stories of this mighty mountain
We will provide special ice crampons for a once in a lifetime ice-walk experience! From suspended catwalks to sparkling frozen waterfalls, Marble Canyon is a winter wonderland that beckons adventurers and nature enthusiasts alike. (Operating only between October 13th - June 1st when the Moraine Lake is closed in winter season. )
Time to take a break and enjoy Banff Avenue—where great food, mountain views, and a little shopping all come together! Grab lunch at one of the cozy cafés or restaurants, then wander through the charming shops for unique souvenirs, local art, or maybe even some Canadian maple treats. It’s the perfect chance to soak in the lively Banff vibe before we head to our next adventure!
See the magnificient Banff Chauteu Fairmont Spring Hotel in closer look. This hotel made of real stone is one of the symbols of Banff.
Surprise Corner is where Banff gives you its best "wow" moment—an incredible panoramic view of the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, framed by towering peaks and the rushing Bow River. It’s the perfect spot for that jaw-dropping photo, and trust us, the name makes sense—you won’t see it coming! Another quick stop, but one you won’t forget.
Bow Falls is where raw power meets stunning scenery—a rushing, wide waterfall surrounded by rugged cliffs and lush forest. Feel the mist on your face as you watch the Bow River thunder downstream, creating a scene straight out of a movie. It’s an easy stop, but one that leaves a big impression!
Lake Minnewanka is where the mountains meet the water in the most epic way—huge, deep-blue, and stretching farther than any other lake in Banff. Whether you're skipping rocks, taking a boat ride, or just breathing in that fresh mountain air, it feels like a secret slice of paradise. And if you’re lucky, you might even spot some bighorn sheep chilling by the shore! (Depending on the traffic situation, we will visit here INSTEAD OF Bow Falls and Surprise Corner. NOT visiting these 3 places on same day. This is a ALTERNATIVE stop for Bow Falls & Surprise corner. PLEASE READ WELL and dont be upset if we dont visit here.)

What an incredible tour! I highly recommend booking with Banff Everyday Tours! The tour has very convenient pick up from multiple locations (Banff, Canmore, or Calgary). We got picked up from Calgary and were treated with a wonderful tour from Joshua. From his facts, to his stories, and just his overall personality were a highlight of the tour. The views were absolutely stunning and the stops informative. We visited Lake Louise, Marble Canyon, Banff, Bow Falls, and Surprise Corner. Joshua was always on schedule and very friendly and knowledgeable. There is a reason there are tons of great reviews. Must book if you’re ever in the area!
The day tour was really good. Our guide Joshua was really informative and had a great sense of humor. The short hike in nature in the snow followed by a hot coffee and maple cookies, prepared by our guide was the best. The whole thing really exceeded my expectation.
Wonderful trip, and full value for money Our guide Mike did a fabulous job, keeping us entertained throughout. He was very knowledgable and gave us lot of info about the region as well. He also knows best spots for photos. Would definetly recommend.
I'm from Calgary but never been to Moraine Lake since I moved to Canada in 2022. But I've been to Lake Louise multiple times and it's always during winter. Celebrated my birthday to see how beautiful Lake Louise and Moraine Lake is. It was pretty amazing. I might do this again next year. Mike is an incredible and amazing tour guide. There's a lot of things that I have not known about Alberta and he was giving us some fun facts on our way.
Enjoyed the trip very much and great experience with Joshua!
It was a great tour. Our guide Josh was informative and friendly. The marble canyon was amazingly underrated.
My tour guide, Joshua, was nothing short of exceptional. He took the time not only to learn the names of those on his tour, but to make sure we all knew something about everyone else on our journey. It’s hard to be at Lake Louise and Marble Canyon (a beautiful location and a great choice!) and not be speechless in awe of the surroundings. It’s harder still to have Joshua as your tour guide and leave those perfect places without a few new friends. Thanks, Joshua!
I had very good time on this trip and Dave, the driver, very informative and friendly. Definitely recommend this tour and tour guide Dave. AAA+++
An exceptional autumn tour. Joshua was an outstanding guide—engaging, informative, and attentive to everyone's needs. The group size was well-balanced, and the timing of the itinerary was spot-on.
We had the most gorgeous cloudy day in Banff! Our tour guide Josh made the drives fun and entertaining and showed us all the best places to take photos on each stop. We especially loved Lake Moraine and Lake Louise! Definitely recommend if you’re visiting Banff.
Joshua was an amazing guide! He shared lots of interesting insights throughout our Banff sightseeing tour and managed the schedule perfectly, making sure we didn't miss anything while still giving us plenty of time to enjoy each location. He was knowledgeable, courteous, and very well organized. Not to mention, we had a great time with all the jokes and humor during the trip, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Highly recommend Joshua for anyone visiting Banff!
I'd never seen a lake as blue as this, a beautiful Azure blue. The only other place you see this colour sea, natural pool is New Zealand.
Awesome Journey with Mike! He described the Clagary history and the story behind the breathtaking sceneries vividly. It was a pleasant time and a funny trip.
Most amazing tour! Lake Louise was beautiful and Marble Canyon was absolutely unreal! The day was made even better by Mike our amazing tour guide! His knowledge on the area was incredible and so was his sense of humour! Would recommend to anyone! Thanks again Mike!!
We had a wonderful time on our tour today! Our guide, Mike, was fabulous. So knowledgeable, witty, and just easy to get on with. This is a great tour to take a the start of your trip if you are in the area of a few days as not only do you get to see some of the main sights, but you also get ideas for what to do next! The bus was clean, heat worked great, and Mike’s selection of music was on point. Would definately recommend and book again.
Our tour guide Bob was amazing! He left plenty of time for us to explore each stop and was knowledgeable about the area and sites. Every stop was beautiful.
Loved this tour and would highly recommend it. The tour guide Joshua was great. Marble Canyon was a very nice addition to the tour.
I had a wonderful experience with Banff everyday tours ! The trip started on time and covered beautiful locations like lake Louise. Our tour guide Joshua was particularly impressive. His knowledge and warmth made the trip memorable ! I had a great time and will cherish these memories. Thanks again !
Tour guide BOB ? 100/10 stars ! He is exceptional, i truly enjoyed every second of the tour because of him. He is truly a professional and naturally a nice person. Why i gave 4 stars then ? - During the canyon hike, it’s clearly stated that the equipments like ( Shoes, sticks .. ) will be provided, that being said you didn’t provide any of those. I saw two old couples stepping back and loosing the whole experience because their shoes was not suitable for hiking during a snowy day. Even though they didn’t complain, i truly didn’t like that what was promised was not provided to them. They missed a great experience and great views that they deserved to see. If the equipments are not provided, then kindly remove them from the list, let people know at least. Otherwise, it’s a highly recommended tour from my side, BOB made it even way much better. Go for it, you won’t regret !
This was such a great day with Joshua. He was both knowledgeable and entertaining. We truly enjoyed this day. It was great to meet so many people from various parts of the world.
Amazing experience with Joshua are guide. I definitely recommend this tour with him ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Bob was excellent! Friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. He kept the tour fun and informative and made everyone feel comfortable. Thanks for a great day, Bob!
Bob was an excellent guide, starting with: he made sure all the tour group was on his bus, and ONLY the Viator tour group was on his bus. He took pics for all the folks who wanted something more than selfies. Glad I made the trip.
My friends and I took a tour with Josh to visit Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, and Banff. He was very knowledgeable, made the tour day fun and also shared a lot of great history. We would definitely tour with him again!
This tour is absolutely amazing! Joshua is the best guide, hands down. He's full of knowledge and passion for the job. Joshua made sure the group felt connected and involved in all activities during the trip. Lake Louise is even more stunning in person—no photo or painting has done justice to seeing it in person. Marble Canyon is surreal. I kept thinking "how is this place real" as we walked and explored.
Joshua was an amazing guide. He was entertaining, knowledgeable and the day flew by! We loved the stop at Marble Canyon!
Fantastic tour! More than I could have ever asked for and definitely worth the value! Had a great time with our group, all friendly and perfectly sized. Was a fantastic day tour that encapsulated the biggest and overlooked spots. Marble canyon was an amazing sight to see and definitely worth the extra drive there. Super cool seeing the waterfalls!! Joshua was the best tour guide we could have asked for, really made us feel like family and was always willing to have conversations and tell us about the history of everything! He also gave us some treats too!! I can’t believe the tour we had and I would gladly recommend this to anyone. Heck, i’d do it again!
Joshua is so amazing, he is one of a kind , thank you joshua for the enjoyable tour that we had , now that e are back in sunshine state no snow at all
Mike was clearly a cut above other guides, so I wasn't surprised that he is an accredited interpretive guide. He shared wonderful historical stories, stories about geology, and his clear enthusiasm as a local Calgarian for his community and the nature around him. Mike was thoughtful, funny, and warm, sharing coffee and maple cookies and his reflections as a local with his small group. A skillful group leader, he guided us through ice breakers and encouraged us to get to know each other, setting the stage for a warm and funny group experience. Mike even took great pictures of me, which my family appreciated! The quality of this experience was top notch.
We had a wonderful time, everything was well done and the scenery was beautiful. What heightened the trip even further was our tour guide, Joshua. I would recommend to anyone that journeys to the area. Joshua was extraordinary, his joy, passion, and knowledge of the trip from Calgary and throughout the entire tour was contagious. His decision to add the Marble Canyon portion of the tour was a fantastic experience. Would have liked to have more time in Banff but the other experiences more than made up for that.
A little longer in Banff felt rushed
Everything was great as expected (based on other's reviews) our host Mike was great; friendly and informative! Multiple spots for photos (fall (October) wasn't the best but still nice to see it!) and very well organized
Great trip with amazing views. Roger was the perfect guide and went far above and beyond.
Roger made the trip fun, informative and personal! Our trip encompassed Lake Louise, Marble Canyon, a stop off in Banff and then 2 more stops to bow falls viewpoint and surprise corner. We departed from Banff (pick up 9:30) and finished up our segment of the tour approx 15:45, it was a great day!
Roger was the best tour guide I’ve ever had. He was incredibly friendly, engaging, and highly knowledgeable throughout the entire excursion. When he learned about my passion for golf, he went out of his way to drive us through several local courses just so I could see the layouts—an unexpected and thoughtful touch that made the day even more memorable. I couldn’t recommend him more highly. Roger Roger
Dave was our driver and tour guide, and he was great. He made everyone feel part of the group. And although the weather was very cold, we saw beautiful places and had fun.
Great tour and guide. Joshua with Banff tours was upbeat, energetic, knowledgeable, full of worldwide experiences, and likes what he does with a passion.
mike is the best took good photos of me and was there giving us knowledge and history about lake louise and even the hike was awesome sweet guy and funny kept the energy very well
Dave was a great tour guide. We also had a great group of people that were on time so it made the day even better. The views and his knowledge made the trip. Everywhere you went it was exceptionally beautiful and interesting. The geology on the tour is so cool.
It was such a great experince! Joshua explained everything very clearly and in a very amusing way. Loved it!
This tour was incredible! Banff is a beautiful place to explore, and Joshua was a fantastic host. The itinerary made the experience even better! I’d highly recommend this tour!
We never experience a tour guide . Who is hands on to his guest. Joshua was a good host . He makes sure that everybody are safe and having a great time. Joshua deserves more than a 5 star with his performance. Great job ..HOpe, Faith and CHarity
Mike is an amazing guide. He is knowledgeable and gave us all the information about Canmore/Banff. This tour is highly recommended especially if you are on a tight schedule.
We could never have seen so much, so easily. Having our driver/guide, Mike, take care of the traveling details made it so relaxing. He also gave us lots of interesting information along the way. This took about 8 hours, and the small group gave us opportunity to ask questions.
Very amazing tour! Mike is the man! Very insightful stories and the history of the mountains and areas! If you’re on the fence about doing this tour, please do it!
It was a great day. I got to see everything I hoped to. Our guide, Mike, was very knowledge, helpful, and did an amazing job. I felt like the day was well worth the ticket price. I learned a ton, because Mike has done so much research and had a lot to share. VERY happy with the tour and highly recommend it!
Mike was our guide and he was great! He was very kind and knowledgeable and we appreciated his dad jokes! He even shared cookies with us and gave great recommendations for food. We highly recommend this tour!
What a great way to see so much beauty! Joshua, our guide, was amazing from the beginning to the end. He was both knowledgeable and showed us the best places. He made everyone on board our bus feel warm and welcoming. Thanks for a great experience!
A fantastic experience! Aylah is a top notch tour guide. Very organized, fun, lively. Would highly recommend
