Start your day with ease and convenience, with pickups beginning from Canmore or Banff. From the moment you step into our comfortable, spacious vehicle, your small-group adventure begins. No need to worry about the details—your personalized tour has been thoughtfully planned to offer you the best experience possible. Once everyone is picked up, we’ll travel along the Bow Valley Parkway, a scenic stretch of road that was once the original highway connecting Banff and Lake Louise. This beautiful route winds through forested landscapes and is a popular area for wildlife sightings (no guarantees), adding an extra layer of discovery to the journey. We’ll also make a short stop at Morant’s Curve, giving you time to stretch your legs, enjoy the iconic mountain views, and perhaps catch a glimpse of a passing train while enjoying a coffee or tea from the van.
