Banff National Park
Your adventure takes place in the heart of Banff National Park, with guaranteed stops at two of the most iconic and in-demand locations in Canada: Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. But that’s just the beginning. This isn’t a scripted, cookie-cutter tour. This is where the Radventures magic comes in — we throw away the script and build the day around you. Your local guide draws on deep insider knowledge to choose the best route and secret stops based on: Recent wildlife sightings, your group’s interests, vibe, and energy, and timing and conditions that day. This means no two tours are ever the same. Whether it’s a secluded canyon, a peaceful lookout, or a backroad that wildlife hang out but most visitors miss, we’ll take you where the experience will be most memorable — not just where the guidebooks say to go.

Clem was an excellent tour guide. We had a wonderful time. I’ll never forget the feeling of seeing Moraine Lake for first time. Clem knew all the spots to hit for best views, even caught the train at Morand Curve. So special!

Flossy, our guide, was very spirited and made a point to chat with everyone on our stops. She was informative and truly engaged in her job. Her enthusiasm for the places we visited was contagious. Couldn’t ask for a better tour guide. She made our day fun and took us to great places including Marble Canyon!

We had the best time on our tour to Lake Louise and Lake Moraine, and a huge part of that was thanks to our amazing guide, B! B struck the perfect balance between giving us freedom and guiding us with knowledge and personality. At both lakes, she offered us the option to explore on our own for a couple of hours or to follow her along the trail — we chose to stick with her and it was totally worth it. She shared fascinating historical facts about the lakes and Banff, all while keeping things fun and relaxed. We especially loved her witty commentary (including her very relatable dislike for random cones and gates without gates blocking the path 😂). After soaking in the beauty of the lakes, B surprised us with a secret scenic route back to Banff. The views were unreal — and just when we thought the day couldn’t get better, we spotted our first grizzly bear and some rams along the way! Truly unforgettable. Thank you, B, for setting the good vibes and making our trip one for the books. You’re a natural at what you do — we couldn’t have asked for a better guide!

The color of Moraine lake is simply stunning . We had a small group with just 4 people. Our guide Nolan did a fabulous job taking care of us and providing a lot of information.
