At Lake Louise, our guests skip the long canoe-rental line everyone else waits in. Renting a canoe at the boathouse can mean an hour or more in the public queue, but through a special arrangement with the boathouse, you don't. If you'd like to paddle the famous turquoise water beneath the Victoria Glacier, the canoe is an optional add-on you rent and pay for at the boathouse, and we get you on the water quickly.

It's the highlight of a full day across three of the Canadian Rockies' most iconic lakes. You'll visit Emerald Lake in the morning, stop for lunch at Lake Louise Village (own expense), take in the Lake Louise shoreline, then travel past the Valley of the Ten Peaks to Moraine Lake. Personal vehicles aren't allowed at Moraine, so we handle access for you, with no shuttle reservation needed.

Expect a full day of roughly 9 to 10 hours in a small group of up to 14, with roundtrip transport, a local guide, and all park permits and parking handled.
