Tour was on time, covered the things we wanted to see. Our guide/driver was good at making sure we saw the key points of both lake areas and left us time to explore a little on our own. Met our expectations. I would recommend.

Walking on a glacier was pretty cool Glass floor walkway was great. Only recommendation would be hang out at back of pack and let bridge clear of people. Get better views and pics while everyone else waiting on bus You can ride any bus back to visitor center

My partner and i took a bus tour with Banff Everyday Tours through lake Louise, Moraine lake and the surrounding areas, our guide Joshua was very passionate about the area and has definitely found his calling as a tour guide. It was a good trip especially since it was a small group. This tour is highly recommended.

Unforgettable experience with an amazing guide, Ahmed
I had such a wonderful time throughout the day. Moraine Lake was breathtaking, and Lake Louise was so peaceful.All the spots were amazing, but the best part by far was our guide, Ahmed. He was so welcoming and brought such a fun, positive vibe to our group. Also, I really appreciate that he was such an awesome photographer for us.I was impressed by his professionalism as well. We actually had a little issue during the tour, but he handled it so quickly and found the best solution. He never forgot to smile and kept making us laugh.Highly recommend!

Beautiful places with a great guide!
We had a great tour with Ahmed to Emerald Lake, Moraine Lake, Lake Louise and Natural Bridges. Ahmed was very friendly and courteous, and provided a lot of information about the area as we drove from place to place. The lakes were beautiful and we were happy we weren't trying to park our own car at each location. The other guests were fun to meet and share the experience with. Overall, it was a great day and worth the time and cost to enjoy these nature sights.

We saw bears!!!!
Lots of beautiful scenery! Although they can't guarantee that you will see wildlife, our tour guide, Charlie, was on it! He had a network of other guides that all share wildlife sightings and Charlie didn't hesitate to go where there was a report of bears! We were able to see a mama black bear and her 3 cubs!! It was awesome!!
