Brilliant evening tour
We did an evening tour with George who was absolutely brilliant - he is so knowledgeable, he made the trip entertaining and personal to each person. We saw elk, deer, an eagle, beautiful lakes and he taught us so much about bears! Amazing - would really recommend the trip. We wish we were staying longer to go again!

Strenuous, but awesome!
Wear comfy clothes & shoes! The trail at Moraine Lake was steep at times & rugged (but breathtaking). My husband had to stop halfway, his back & knees were complaining! Our guide, Apple (?) was very entertaining, answered all our questions and was looked out for our safety. Highly recommend.

Jasper’s Live Theater show – From Jasper with Love
Alice_C, Sep 2026
Fun Show!
I had a great time! The location was great and easy to find, and you could pick a free drink. I wanted a non-alcoholic and sugar-free option, and they had a nice grapefruit seltzer that worked for me. The show was really fun - it was clear that Pieter and Joost really love Jasper, and it's a great way to get a nice introduction to Jasper without getting a tour guide. The audience was small enough it felt intimate and Pieter and Joost were really nice to everyone, chatting us up before and after the show. They even recognized my name when I checked in! I was originally a bit hesitant to book a show but this short and sweet one was worth it!

Magnificent tour, best guide!
Breathtaking experience. The scenery, the people, everything we saw was an amazement. Our guide Joshua was the BEST! He was knowledgeable, experienced in the facts of the areas we visited and besides that he was a pleasure to spend the day with touring the lakes. When booking this tour I would most definitely ask for him as a guide.

The ride was great. The views from the top were amazing. We took the extra walk on the walkway and it was well worth the effort. We ate at the restaurant, and was a bit pricey but the food was AMAZING.

World Class Experience Above Jasper
First time visit was June 24 just before wildfires. We returned to Jasper to be part of the tourism-led recovery and our flight on the Jasper Skytram was exceptional again. Staff are absolutely incredible (Groundcrew, Skytram and Restaurant) and the overall experience is world class. Not to be missed when you visit this amazing Mountain town - it really is a jewel.
