Day Trip to Banff from Calgary Itinerary
Your full-day private tour starts in Calgary, and you’ll experience the changing landscape from the prairies to the mountains en route to Banff National Park.
In Banff, you’ll stop for extraordinary views and photos at Surprise Corner, learn about the wind-shaped Hoodoos, and feel the spray from powerful Bow Falls. You may choose to stop for a lunch break on Banff Avenue or we can grab something to go for those who want to maximize their time in the mountains.
*While in Banff, we suggest including the optional Banff Gondola add-on. At the top of Sulphur Mountain, you can visit the Above Banff Interpretive Centre, take a walk along the boardwalk where you have sweeping views of the Bow Valley, or enjoy a meal at one of the three dining options.
For those who choose not to take the gondola ride, you will continue to head west to the crown jewel of the Canadian Rockies; Lake Louise. You’ll have some free time to explore the majestic lake before returning to Calgary at the end of the day. Should you wish to include the Gondola and Lake Louise in your day, please let us know in advance and we will adjust the itinerary to accommodate your request.
With so much to do in the area, our guides are happy to customize the itinerary to better fit your interests. Our private tours can also include a variety of additional activities by request, such as a short hike, river floating, whitewater rafting, Banff Upper Hot Springs, Lake Minnewanka Cruise, or an alpine helicopter ride. Please let us know of any changes you would like to make prior to booking your tour!
