Wonderful way to travel from Jasper to Banff! May 2024 - We booked this tour as a way to get to Banff from Jasper and it didn’t disappoint! Guide Norm was wonderful! He knew the area intimately and had many interesting stories along the way. Our first stop was at Athabasca Pass National Historic site and Athabasca falls. Then on to the Columbia Icefields where Norm dropped us off for our trip up to the Athabasca glacier on a 6 wheeled Ice Explorer. Although the glacier is receding it is still an amazing experience. Then we were off to the Skywalk, a glass floored walkway high above the valley floor. It was snowing initially so the glass was covered and not a scary as it could be. But the sky eventually cleared and we were able to experience the full effect! As it was so early in the season, we were unable to get to Peyto lake as it was still snowed in but a frozen Lake Louise was beautiful. We arrived at our hotel in Banff ready for a good sleep after a full fun filled day! Thank you, Sun Dog tours, and Viator.

Top trip - Jeff was our very knowledgeable and friendly guide. So much to see and do but we still had some flexibility such as stopping by the road to photograph the wildlife. Just a very special tour.
