Review of the Moraine Lake sunset and stargazing tour from Canmore and Banff, with wildlife stops, hot drinks, guides, costs, and practical tips.
“Amazing views and unique nighttime experience. The tour guide was very knowledgeable about the area and stopped at great viewing locations. Enjoyed the adventure.”
Review of Canmore’s two-hour night walk, with starry skies, local stories, wildlife, pricing, trail advice, and booking tips.
“This was the last of 4 tours we booked with this company. We met our guide outside of Banff near Lake Minnewanka. We walked to and around the lake for nice views of the night sky with no light pollution. I imagine this would be a perfect spot when the northern lights are out. Jacob, our guide, was funny and very knowledgeable about the area. The road to the lake is in a wildlife preserve and Jacob gave us a night safari on the drive out spotting a very cute white fox and deer. Would not hesitate using this company again.”
Review of Banff’s night adventure with stargazing, hot drinks, telescope use, cozy loungers, and possible Aurora sightings.
“The stargazing was amazing—we saw Jupiter and her moons through the telescope, and with the naked eye we were treated to such a clear sky that we saw the arm of the Milky Way! The tour guides were kind and very knowledgeable, and each location was easy to get to and comfortable, despite the cold! I highly recommend this tour!”
