Banff & Lake Louise in the Rockies

Banff is at the center of Canada’s first National Park, nestled high in the Canadian Rockies. Once “Siding 29” on the Canadian Pacific Railway, Banff was intended to be a tourist town from its inception. The Park’s first superintendent, George Stewart, even oriented the town’s first street so it offered the best possible view of Cascade Mountain. With easy access to pristine wilderness, outdoor adventures, jaw-dropping landscapes, and vibrant history, there are many places to visit in Banff. Upon arrival, enjoy a sightseeing tour of Banff including Bow Falls, the Hoodoos, Cascade Garden, the Trading Post, and the famous Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel. Next, you will experience the Banff Gondola as you sit back, relax and marvel at the unsurpassed view of Banff, the Bow Valley, and a 360-degree view of six scenic mountain ranges from 2,281m (7,486 ft) above sea level. Dinner will be at the mountain-top restaurant for a dining experience high above and overlooking Banff. We return to Calgary this evening. Time: 9:00 am- 8:00 pm.
