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

Amazing Day at Lake Louise and Moraine Lake
We traveled with several family members, including older adults, and this was a very convenient way to visit both lakes. The shuttle was comfortable and the schedule was easy to follow. We appreciated having enough time at both Lake Louise and Moraine Lake to enjoy the views without having to rush.Our driver was kind and professional, and the whole experience was very smooth from beginning to end. It was a beautiful family day in Banff National Park. Highly recommended!

Great Family Day in Banff
We had a wonderful day with our family visiting Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. The shuttle was comfortable, the driver was friendly, and everything was well organized. Having 1.5 hours at each lake gave us plenty of time to take pictures, walk around, and enjoy the scenery without feeling rushed.It was especially convenient for our family because we didn’t have to worry about parking or transportation. Both lakes were absolutely beautiful. We would definitely recommend this shuttle to families visiting Banff.

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.
