Private tour FAQ

How much does a private tour cost?

Private tours are custom-quoted based on your group size, the season and the itinerary you want. Tell us your plan and we'll send a clear, all-in price — usually within 24 hours. Because you get exclusive use of the vehicle and guide, they're best value for families and small groups sharing the day.

How many people can join?

Up to 24 guests per vehicle. Larger group? Ask us — we can run multiple vehicles in convoy so everyone travels together.

Can we customize the stops?

Completely. Mix any stops from our eight tours, or places we don't normally visit — linger at Moraine Lake, chase the light for photos, skip what doesn't interest you. We design the day around what you want to see.

Where do you pick up?

We pick up from Calgary, Canmore or Banff, and because it's private, we can arrange a personalised pickup outside our three standard locations. Just tell us where you're staying.

How do we pay?

Once we've agreed the itinerary and price, we confirm your date and send payment details by reply. A booking is confirmed once payment is received — there's no online checkout; a real person handles it.

How far in advance should we book?

The sooner the better, especially June–September and over the Christmas period, when dates fill fast. That said, message us anytime — we'll always tell you honestly what's still available.

Do you run private tours in winter?

Yes — private tours run 365 days a year, on your clock. Winter opens up Johnston Canyon ice walks, frozen Marble Canyon, snowshoeing and quiet trails, plus sunrise photography and evening stargazing on request.
