Love this personalized tour

Published on Feb, 2025

This trip was so amazing! Apart from the beautiful sceneries at the popular sightseeing spots at Banff town, Lake Minnewanka, Banff Gondola and Johnston Canyon, Banff Journey has tailor-made a unique itinerary to make it fit our preference. The tour guide is also a professional photographer to take stunning pictures for us with amazing sceneries at the background. How wonderful!

More than expected!

Published on Jan, 2025

It was a great experience, it was better than expected! Will was so nice and explained everything! 5 stars service! Definitely would book again with them!

Banff and National Park extravaganza

Published on Jan, 2025

We had a wonderful time. William was so attentive and packed a lot into our day. We went to 3 National Parks and the gondola ride at the end of the day was a nice highlight. Walking on the ice at Lake Louise was another favorite. He took pictures of us and sent them to us at the end of the trip. Going on a weekday in the middle of January . There was just three of us so it felt like we had our own private tour. Highly recommend. William was excellent.

Five star service

Published on Jan, 2025

Had a great afternoon driving around Banff and seeing all the stunning sights it has to offer! Banff Journey were able to offer me a customised tour as I had a morning flight, Tommy was very friendly and informative, taking the time to take some great photos for me.

Amazing day exploring Banff’s highlights!

Published on Jan, 2025

We had an incredible day experiencing the Banff Town, Lake Minnewanka, Banff Gondola tour! Each stop offered something unique and breathtaking. The Banff Gondola ride was absolutely stunning, providing unparalleled views of the Rockies—it felt like we were on top of the world! Lake Minnewanka’s serene beauty left us speechless. Our guide was exceptional—friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to answer questions or help take photos. They shared so many fascinating facts about the area, making the trip even more enjoyable. The tour was well-organized, with plenty of time to soak in each destination without feeling rushed. It was a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore Banff National Park’s top attractions. It’s an unforgettable experience that I would love to do again!
