Before you book
- Pickup from set points in Calgary, Canmore or Banff, depending on the option you book, in a vehicle for 6 to 55 people. The guide is included; food and drink are not, and the listing suggests a $12 a person cash tip. Bring lunch or buy it in Lake Louise village.
- Moraine Lake is on the tour only until 12 October 2026, the end of Parks Canada's season for tour vehicles (the road is closed to private cars all year); later dates go to Banff town or Bow Falls instead, per the listing.
- Johnston Canyon: from 13 October 2026 Parks Canada closes the trail to the Lower Falls and the Upper Falls lower viewpoint for rock-slope work, with no reopening date. The listing says winter visits go to Johnston Canyon or Marble Canyon depending on the weather.
