Frequently asked questions

Good to know

Do your tours depart from Calgary?

Yes. Most of our full-day tours depart from downtown Calgary (the bus stop at 206-178 4 Ave SE, across from the Delta Hotel Downtown), and we also pick up in Canmore and Banff. A few tours — the Lake Louise & Moraine Lake Half-Day and the Stargazing Experience — pick up from Canmore and Banff only. Each tour page lists its exact pickup points.

How small are your groups?

Our scheduled tours run in small groups for a personal experience — you're never on a full-size coach. For a completely private day, our Private Tours give you exclusive use of the vehicle and guide for groups up to 24.

What's included in the price?

Round-trip transport in a comfortable air-conditioned vehicle, a professional local guide, all Banff National Park entrance fees ($12.25 per-adult value) for every guest, bottled water and snacks, and free 24-hour cancellation. Lunch isn't included on full-day tours, but we stop where you can buy your own.

Do I need hiking experience?

No. Most stops are reached by short, mostly flat walks, and the guide sets an easy pace. The exceptions are our more active tours — the Canmore Day Hike (Grassi Lakes & Grotto Canyon) covers about 8 km with a 170 m climb, and the Johnston Canyon Lower Falls walk has a gentle uphill grade on uneven ground. Each tour page describes how much walking to expect.

Do you run tours in winter?

Yes — we run guided tours year-round from Calgary, Canmore and Banff. Summer tours (June–October) include Moraine Lake access, autumn colour and longer hikes at Johnston Canyon and the Icefields Parkway. Winter tours (November–May) feature Johnston Canyon ice walks with crampons, frozen Marble Canyon, snowshoeing, and far quieter trails than summer.

Can I book a private or custom tour?

Message us on WhatsApp, email or the contact form with your dates, group size and destinations. We reply to private-tour requests from Calgary, Canmore and Banff within 24 hours with a custom quote. Private tours include exclusive use of the vehicle, fully flexible itineraries, and personalised pickup outside our three standard locations, for groups up to 24.

What is your cancellation policy?

Free cancellation up to 24 hours before departure — full refund, no questions asked. Within 24 hours, bookings are non-refundable, though we'll do our best to reschedule based on availability. Cancel or change by WhatsApp or email.
