Description

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Canmore, Canmore, Kananaskis Country, Alberta

My favourite mountain town and area before Banff. Great place to meet the locals, grab some java and do a few stops in the area.

On the way from Calgary to this point we will learn about the Canadian Rockies and why they are such a world renown stop for domestic and international travelers.

Before we get to Canmore there will be a few stops to get you accustom to our local weather conditions but also to see how much the entire region has to offer before you get to Banff National Park.

Great points of interest along the way and a few "favourite secrete spots" to share with our small group!

Duration: 1 hour 30 minutes

Stop At: Lake Minnewanka Scenic Drive, Banff, Banff National Park, Alberta T1L 1K2 Canada

This is one of my favourite stops, the lake offers so much to do and see. You'll fall in love with it!

Duration: 30 minutes

Stop At: Banff, Banff, Banff National Park, Alberta

The town of Banff is where we might have a quick dinner and you get to spend some time and money shopping for those unique souvenirs you just can't help taking home to remember your trip years down the road.

We'll also check out the Banff Springs Hotel which is over 130 years old and a big part of the local history. Great photo opportunities here!

We will stop at a couple amazing lookouts where history meets nature in a spectacular mountain display.

Depending on group dynamic, we might do a short hike here. Spend time at the ice rink during winter, checkout the Chateau Lake Louise hotel and take unbelievable photos to make your friends jealous and to make sure you take an unforgettable memory home with you!
