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 Wildlife & Maligne Lake Tour with Spirit Island Cruise
JoanLiu, Sep 2026
A enjoyable tour
Our tour guide, Logan, was very knowledgeable about the local wildlife and forests. He provided us with a thorough and fascinating background on Jasper’s wildlife, as well as the history and impact of the 2024 Jasper wildfire. We were lucky enough to see some bald eagles and elk along the way. The scenery during the cruise to Spirit Island was absolutely beautiful. It was a wonderful tour.

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.

One perfect day
This was our first full day in Banff and what a joy it was. Pickup was smooth at our hotel. Our guide Rahul was personable, entertaining, knowledgeable, an excellent driver and a very good photographer for everyone. If you are visiting Banff, this is a must do tour. You’ve seen the photographs of the amazing lakes and vistas, now see them with a tour company that will help make your day perfect. You’ll be so happy you did.

Beyond Banff is beyond wonderful!
I rarely leave reviews but everything about this tour was top tier. We made stops at Lake Minnewanka, Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Bow Lake, Peyto Lake and Icefields Parkway. Our driver, Robbie, was the best tour guide ever. Convenient on-time pick up, comfortable van, and extremely knowledgeable about the entire Banff area and its history. We had a full van of 13 people and he took the time to answer everyone's questions all day long. He made everyone feel comfortable and welcome, and he never rushed us. Very impressed with this young man. If you're looking for a fun tour that takes you to many of the popular must-see attractions in Banff National Park, this is the tour!

Luis is a wonderful guide!
Luis was a wonderful, entertaining guide. We learned so much about the area. Luis helped us get to sites that were less crowded so we could get better pictures. Cool Destinations marketed this as a max 12 person tour but there were 24 on our bus. I don't think it detracted from our experience though.

The tour guides were amazing. Great personalities and very attentive to the travelers. So many little things that made you feel spoiled. The chairs, blankets, hot drinks in little thermoses, head lamps. They even had hiking sticks. They were actively interacting with everyone. Definitely worth booking.
