Must-see sunset tour - Excellent guides and learned a lot! We were given adequate time to see both lakes. The guides were so professional.

A day to remember! - Everything about this trip was amazing. Yannick provided so much information along the way. We even saw two bears in the way. The two lakes are simply breathtaking! Using Canmore Travel was so convenient, we had plenty of time to explore at each stop. It was definitely a day to remember!

Amazing - Fantastic tour. We had sunny, warm blue skies, spectacular scenery, and to top it off, we drove by a grizzly bear no less than 3 meters from the road- really quite special. The tour was spot on punctual and well run by our guide Cory.

The Ladies and the Lakes - We 6 ladies enjoyed a fabulous tour visiting these 2 lovely lakes. Our tour guide was great and made sure we had a lovely time. It was also great to go later in the day when there are fewer visitors and the increased chance of seeing wildlife. She shared lots of information and gave us time on our own to wander around.

Highly Recommend - We enjoyed our sunset trip to Lake Moraine and Lake Louise. It even snowed on us and we were lucky enough to see some wildlife that included a deer and black bear!

Moraine lake opening day with the Canmore travel - I had great time in this visiting. We are lucky enough to see the sunny and snow in the lakes, and meet a black bear otw back. Breathtaking views, interesting stories and history information from the guide. Definitely one of the best tour I ever took!

Moraine Lake and Lake Louise Tour - Our tour group was 12 people plus our tour guide in a comfortable over-sized van. The van picked us up at a convenient location near our hotel in Canmore. Moraine Lake is beautiful. You can walk to the top of the Rockpile for great photos (best when the sun is out) and also walk along the shore of the lake. Our guide was very knowledgeable and attentive. Lake Louise was also beautiful but more crowded even at this time of year.

Concise tour for non-hikers - Beautiful views, knowledgeable guide, we even saw a bear! It had snowed the night before our tour and they provided us cleats for our shoes. I was pregnant at the time of the tour and I didn't feel like it was too long or physically too much for me to handle at all.

Great Tour to See Lakes Moraine & Louise - The actual tour with Canmore Travel and tour guide Yannick was excellent (a 5+). We initially signed up for a shorter tour of Lakes Louise & Moraine but were on the fence about switching to a longer one to hike more. The company ended up contacting us the day before, coincidentally to see if we wanted to upgrade, at no cost to us, to the longer tour as we were the only ones signed up for the shorter tour which was great! On the day of our tour, Yannick, our guide, arrived early - we were early as well, so we were able to get going. He was knowledgeable, personable & very kind. My spouse has some mobility issues & Yannick even accompanied us on the first hike to the Rockpile, holding on to my husband. He also happily took photos for us and the other family in our van. He was clear on instructions for meeting & drop off & gave great recommendations for activities that could be done at each lake, taking into account the various abilities of the people in our van. Toward the end of the day, Yannick gave suggestions for dinner restaurants as well as other sites we could explore on our own. We also ran into Yannick around town the next day - he was kind to say hello, ask us about our day & sites we explored & provided further advice about where to stop for sites & gas up when we drive to Jasper. He was fantastic! The only reason for the overall 4 star rating may be due to Travel Advisor’s fault or lack of communication between the vendor & Trip Advisor. The tour description lists that guests should bring water bottles because Canmore Travel would provide water to fill up our personal water bottles. That information needs to be updated as there was no water available. We would have prepared differently had we known differently.
