Old school bus to lakes and canyon.

Fabulous way to get to see a few attractions . I took this tour with my family to have a taster of everything to see where I wanted to go back to . The trip was more tailored to where you wanted to go from a list of set destinations, with set pick up times. The guide ( owner) was very informative and chatted to everyone who wanted to . Definitely 5 * !!!!
Great guides

Perfect day

If you want a perfect day from Banff to the lakes this is your ticket. We were able to complete a hike around Lake Moraine & climb the rock pile, hike up to Lake Agnes tea house for lunch at Lake Louise, then hike to lower falls at Jackson canyon thanks to this service & wonderful guides & bus drivers. Do not hesitate to book this tour. Amazing & long day….get on the first bus out to assure seeing all you can.

Looking at the parking limitations around Lakes Louise and Moraine , this was such a good idea. Really neat service using 4 yellow scool buses, allowing people to wizz round the sights or take a leisurely day loking at them all. Congratulations to Dominique (owner and one of the guides) for getting through Covid. This was very good, amusing annecdotes and useful information.

This was absolutely the best way to travel in the park if you want to stop at the main attractions. They are incredibly helpful in planning your day to make sure you get the most out of your time. It is informative and they have connections that get you into places easily. The guides are awesome!

Beautiful Banff

My son and I did the hop on/off Banff tour. We are so glad we did. We found the ride to be comfortable and worry free. Both Dominique and Darryl were amazing guides and very informative. Dominique would ask what we hoped to see and do and then make a personal plan for us both on the tour and around Banff. Shes so kind and helpful! We seen all the beautiful lakes and scenery. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to sit back and enjoy the scenery and access all the lakes without the wait and worry of parking.

What a shame we only joined the tour at 12 midday. We had time only to visit Lake Louise and Lake Moraine but Dominique gave us lots of information en route and advised us of the best viewing area for Lake Moraine which was absolutely stunning. If you book this trip make sure you join early to take in more sights

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.

Sorting, ranking, and search results
Viator wants to make your searches as relevant as possible. That’s why we offer many ways to help you find the right experiences for you.
On some pages, you can select how to sort the results we display and also use filter options to see only those search results that meet your chosen preferences. You’ll see explanations of what those sort options mean when you select them.
You’ll see some experiences with a “Promoted” badge, which means that the operators of those experiences have agreed to pay Viator more to have their experience highlighted.
If you see an Experience Award Winner label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through Viator over a 12-month period.
The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We’re always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
