Explore four of the most iconic lakes in the Canadian Rockies—Lake Louise, Moraine Lake, Emerald Lake, and Peyto Lake—each offering its own breathtaking charm throughout the seasons.
In summer, witness the turquoise brilliance of Moraine Lake, nestled in the Valley of the Ten Peaks, and the world-famous Lake Louise, where glaciers meet mirror-like waters. Continue to Emerald Lake, known for its vivid color and tranquil forest setting, and Peyto Lake, a glacier-fed wonder shaped like a wolf’s head.
During winter, when Moraine Lake is closed due to seasonal access, the journey highlights Lake Louise, Emerald Lake, and Peyto Lake, now transformed into a magical frozen landscape surrounded by snow-capped peaks and crisp alpine air.
This scenic adventure offers the perfect blend of iconic viewpoints, pristine wilderness, and unforgettable photo opportunities year-round.

It’s my first time to visit Banff and Jasper. The tour guide, William, has done an excellent job. He was knowledgeable, caring and engaging. Highly recommended.

This tour was actually changed and we were moved to a different itinerary because there were initially just the two of us, I was doubtful at first but good thing we didn’t refund it and agreed to being transferred to the tour with Lake Minnewanka and Johnston Canyon. Our guide’s name was “D” and he did such a great job. He is so cheerful, energetic, very warm, patient and catering to taking our photos. We were part of a small group and had enough time to go around each tour. It was perfect. Highly recommended for a hassle free tour here in Banff

The views are definitely amazing. The 700m snow/Ice slope walking at Peto Lake was quite tiring, but totally worth it once made it up to the top. Peto Lake Scenery is gorgeous. Other lakes were spectacular. Sadly, we didn't get to swing by Moraine Lake.

We thoroughly enjoyed the tour today. It was our first visit to Canmore and we couldn't have picked a better tour company. William our tour guide was knowledgeable which we found impressive. What made this tour memorable was how he made sure to help us take unique pictures to cherish and reflect on this trip. He went above and beyond to make sure we captured moments to treasure for a very long time. He even helped other guests along the way...he was very pleasant. We will definitely book with him again when we visit again in the future. Thank you William for a memorable tour!

Tour leader and driver Chris was awesome. He is knowledgeable, friendly and wanted to ensure everyone was having the best time. Tour attractions did not disappoint and we saw a lot of wildlife. Chris saw a moose and made sure to let all of us know. Great trip thanks. I recommend this tour and especially our tour guide.

unbeatable, unforgettable and beyond our wildest expectations. William and Chris provided personal, professional, caring and knowledgeable support and service from the moment we booked at the last minute until we were dropped off, safe and sound. Brilliant tour, stunning environment and even (unexpected) snow! We will remember this forever ♥️

Chris was the best tour operator ever, and I have done a lot of tours. He was a safe driver and lots of information! I will never forget the fun day we had. Peyto Lake was really amazing! We will be back for sure.

Our guide William was so nice and knowledgeable. He was sharing cool stuff while on the road. He was a great photographer too! The trip was so amazing. The lakes and other places we've been today were super worth it. Would like to do this again when I come back (in Summer probably)! Thank you all.
