## Itinerary:
Banff → Crowfoot Glacier → Peyto Lake (30 mins) → Icefields Parkway → Lunch (at guests' own expense; buffet lunch available for pre-order, 45 mins) → Ice Explorer & Glacier Skywalk (at guests' own expense, 150 mins) → Athabasca Falls (30 mins) → Check in at hotel in Jasper
Depart from the hotel in Banff in the morning and catch distant views of Crowfoot Glacier along the route, before arriving at Peyto Lake. In case of site closure due to maintenance or other force majeure reasons, the visit will be substituted with Waterfowl Lake. The maple-leaf-shaped lake lies like a turquoise ribbon embedded in the valleys of the Canadian Rockies. Afterwards, buffet lunch at guests’ own cost will be arranged at The Crossing. Continue along the scenic Highway 93, Icefields Parkway, to reach the Icefield Centre. Visitors may board the paid Ice Explorer to travel atop the Athabasca Glacier and witness natural formations built up over millions of years. Alternatively, step onto the 280-metre-high paid Glacier Skywalk to overlook the entire Sunwapta Valley; walking amid drifting clouds feels like strolling above the clouds on foggy days. The tour then proceeds to Athabasca Falls, a 23-metre waterfall carved by glacial meltwater erosion, before driving to Jasper Town for hotel check-in.
*The paid Ice Explorer and Glacier Skywalk operate from May 1 to October 12.*
Starting October 13, the itinerary will include stops at respective scenic spots without the optional Ice Explorer and Glacier Skywalk experiences.
In fine weather: Guests may enjoy an easy 60-minute hike on the foothills in front of the glacier for an up-close view of the glacial landscape.
In poor weather: Per tour guide’s arrangement, guests will view the glacier from afar with an extra stop at Waterfowl Lake added to the schedule.
### Itinerary:
Jasper → Medicine Lake → Maligne Lake (Optional Boat Cruise, 90 mins) → Lunch at Maligne Lake (At guests’ own expense, 45 mins) → The Crossing → Bow Lake (20 mins) → Banff
Depart from your hotel in Jasper and travel via Medicine Lake before reaching Maligne Lake, the world’s second-largest glacial lake at the lake’s far end. Board the seasonal optional Maligne Lake Cruise* and cruise across the 22-kilometre-long lake toward Spirit Island, nicknamed “the Gathering Place of the Gods”. Following the optional lunch at Maligne Lake, head to Maligne Canyon*, the longest and deepest canyon in the Canadian Rockies. Visits to the canyon may be replaced with Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge and Lake Beauvert subject to national park opening status due to the 2024 wildfires. Sculpted by glacial erosion, the canyon features steep, craggy rock walls and spectacular natural scenery. Afterwards, drive south along the Icefields Parkway, stop for a rest at The Crossing, then make a photo stop at panoramic Bow Lake before continuing south back to Banff.
*The optional Maligne Lake Cruise runs from May 29 to October 11; schedules are subject to change based on lake ice-off conditions. When cruises are unavailable, the itinerary switches to Pyramid Lake (45 mins) and Patricia Lake (15 mins).
*Maligne Canyon may be substituted with Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge and Lake Beauvert (total 30 mins) contingent upon national park access due to the impact of 2024 wildfires.
# Itinerary:
Banff → Lake Louise (75 mins) → Moraine Lake (60 mins) → Lunch in Lake Louise Village (at guests’ own expense; Grill & Bar set meals available for pre-order, 45 mins) → Emerald Lake (20 mins) → Natural Bridge (15 mins) → Banff → Calgary
Depart from the hotel early in the morning and head west along Highway 1. The rugged Castle Mountain will come into view, and you will soon arrive at Lake Louise, one of the most iconic lakes in the Canadian Rockies. Bathed in sunshine, the mineral-rich lake water shimmers with mesmerizing sapphire blue, enclosed on three sides by the towering Victoria Glacier. Resembling a piece of jade nestled amid the mountains, the lake earns its moniker “the Sapphire of the Rockies”. Glance back from the lakeshore, and Fairmont Chateau Lake Louise stands serenely amid pine forests to welcome visitors. Afterwards, hike to the top of the trail to take in seasonal Moraine Lake*. Its vivid turquoise waters reflect the jagged Ten Peaks. From the elevated vantage point, the full expanse of lake and mountain scenery unfolds before your eyes, making you lose track of time. After exploring Moraine Lake, proceed to Lake Louise Village for lunch at your own cost, with Chinese or Western plated meals available for extra pre-booking. Following lunch, continue westbound, passing the Spiral Tunnel built through the hardship of Pacific Railway labourers to enter Yoho National Park and reach the secluded Emerald Lake, where red wooden canoes ripple across the placid water surface. Next, visit Natural Bridge, carved gradually by the Kicking Horse River over millennia; the watercourse, dark pine trees, distant mountains and shallow shoals together form a picturesque landscape. Make a stopover at Banff Town on the return journey before driving back to Calgary.
*Moraine Lake: Open seasonally from the Victoria Day long weekend in May through late September to early October each year, subject to official announcements from Parks Canada. If the lake is closed and inaccessible for sightseeing, it will be substituted with Lake Minnewanka (30 mins) plus Two Jack Lake (15 mins), and the mandatory entrance fee for Moraine Lake will be waived.
