Overview

Embark on a full-day tour to witness the beauty of Canadian Rockies. Start your day with a pick-up from Calgary, Canmore, or Banff. Pass by the Three Sisters and Castle Mountain on your way to Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. In winter, experience an ice walk in the world-famous Johnston Canyon. Next, pass by the Vermillion Lakes and stop in Banff Town. After a day of exploring, relax on the drive back to your starting point.

Lake Louise: a glacial lake within Banff National Park. The vivid turquoise waters of it have earned a worldwide reputation and the Victoria Glacier as the majestic mountain backdrop.

Moraine Lake: this strikingly turquoise-blue Moraine lake sits in the Valley of the Ten Peaks. The most stunning turquoise lake where you have to see it with your own eyes.

Johnston Canyon: The trail is open all year round, and in the winter, the frozen waterfalls and snow-covered paths are gorgeous. Crawl through the cave to see the iconic frozen waterfalls and pillars of blue ice.
