Get out early to make the most of your day. Wildlife sightings in Jasper National Park are most frequent in the early morning and during the evening. This vehicle-based guided tour offers the opportunity to observe wildlife such as elk, bear, moose, sheep, and deer at the dawn of another day.
As you meander slowly down the valley, you gaze out large windows while passing stunning views of the mountains and surrounding wilderness to capture your memories through a photograph from either inside of the minibus or occasionally by a short walk at the discretion of your guide.
Your local guide uses their expertise to select the route based on seasonal wildlife movements, increasing your chances of encounters. Along the way, you learn valuable insights into the challenges of managing and protecting wildlife within the national park. Our guide is eager to answer your questions as they passionately share the magic of Jasper’s wild side, bringing the stories of the animals to life.

- Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult
- This tour is not recommended for young children: The Wildlife Tour is typically geared more towards adults, providing educational commentary along the way. While wildlife sightings are frequent, the experience differs significantly from a zoo visit. Due to the unpredictable nature of wild animals, sightings occur intermittently during the 3-hour tour and vary from day to day. Based on our observations, young children often become restless as there are no scheduled stops on this vehicle-based tour. Therefore, we recommend a minimum age of 5 years. Although not recommended, children and infants under 5 years old are welcome, provided a seat is purchased for them at the child rate (all passengers regardless of age are required to be allocated a seat on the bus). For those bringing infants, we recommend bringing a baby carrier which can be secured with the provided seat belts on our buses.
- Jasper National Park is a wild and natural habitat. Wildlife Sightings are frequent but not guaranteed.
