Sightseeing in Banff

Banff National Park, Golden, and Lake Louise are bordered by the Waputik, Bow and Blue Ranges. These ranges are home to vastly different formations and landmarks such as mountain peaks, glaciers, lakes, wetland marshes, rivers, waterfalls, canyons, limestone caves, sand dunes, and fossil beds. These natural features make Banff an excellent sightseeing destination. The Bow River, snaking through Banff and flowing as far as Hudson’s Bay in Eastern Canada, is a popular site for tourists who are seeking an invigorating way to experience the Rockies.

 

What to expect

A recent sightseeing attraction added to the park is the Glacier Skywalk, located just outside Jasper. This see-through glass and metal walkway arcs for more than a kilometre (0.6 mile) over a 280-metre (920-foot) drop. This is included on our Columbia Icefield Discovery Tour. Our half day or full day sightseeing tours feature stops at Lake Louise, Moraine Lake as well as Emerald Lake and Johnston Canyon. Or bundle your sightseeing with one of our full day packages such as the Glaciers, Lakes & Peaks Tour or Mountains, Lakes & Waterfalls.

What to Expect

  1. Will I be able to group together more than one sightseeing tour?
    Definitely! We’d love to help you book your perfect Banff visit, talk to us about our summer activities bundles.
  2. Are all your sightseeing tours guided, or can we wander at our own pace?
    Our sightseeing tours are often a blend of both guided and self-guided tours, with scheduled pick ups at hotels around Banff and transportation provided to our various sightseeing tour destinations.
  3. How far in advance will I need to book a tour?
    We typically require a minimum of 16 hours advance notice for online bookings, but we invite you to contact our office directly (403-762-4554) for short-term booking inquiries.
