“I loved the energy the girls brought to the cruise! Unfortunately, I forgot their names but they were amazing and really led the journey well. My family and I especially loved the part when we made quiet time to listen to the sounds of nature.”

“The trip was more than perfect. We were 8 people in addition to our guide and driver Topu. Topu was driving us safely to the different lakes, etc which where stunning. He didn’t mind at all to take multiple pictures of us within the breathtaking nature. Every stop was definitely worth it! Unfortunately it was rainy, but nevertheless each stop looked as painted. We didn’t go onto the Banff Gondola because you couldn’t see anything except for clouds. All in all it was a long and excellent day! We had a great atmosphere all way along and felt comfortable. Thank you Topu; it wouldn’t have been the same without you:-)”

Review of Westar Travel’s Banff day tour to Peyto Lake, Bow Lake, Lake Minnewanka and more, with practical advice on timing, value and stops.

“This tour is very thorough and takes you to a lot of places in Banff if it is your first time. The tour guide was very professional, knowledgeable and polite. I was able to take great pictures while both in the tour vehicle and at the destinations. What I thought could be improved was I was told the pickup spot would be outside a specific hotel and when I went there nobody was waiting there because they had already picked up other people from somewhere else. If pick up at your hotel was an option I should have been told that clearly. The Johnston Canyon section of the tour was…”
