Overview

Experience Banff through the eyes of a local guide on this small-group tour. Your tour guide will pick you up from your chosen location in Banff or Canmore. From the town of Banff, you’ll explore all the must-see locations within the townsite. Visit Surprise Corner for the best views of the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, admire the towering mountains, learn about the wind-shaped hoodoos, see Bow Falls, and enjoy a scenic drive along Tunnel Mountain Drive. The highlight of this tour is a gentle ride on the Banff Gondola to the top of Sulphur Mountain, where you’ll take in fantastic views of the Bow Valley, walk along interpretive boardwalks, and capture endless photo opportunities. At the end of the tour, you’ll be dropped off at your starting location or in downtown Banff if you’d like to continue exploring on your own.
