What To Expect
Banff National Park
Start your day with Radventures’ premium, multi-award-winning and top-rated sunrise tour — a must for any Banff bucket list. Your adventure begins with an early pickup in Banff, where you’ll board our spacious, upscale vehicle featuring panoramic windows and plenty of legroom. Settle in and enjoy some extra sleep, or stay alert as we travel scenic backroads at first light — a time when bears, moose, elk, and other wildlife are often spotted starting their day. It’s a peaceful, beautiful ride that sets the tone for the unforgettable morning ahead.
Moraine Lake
Arrive before the crowds and big tour buses, with your certified expert local guide leading you safely by headlamp to a spectacular viewpoint, ready to witness the sunrise. Enjoy the tranquility of the Valley of the Ten Peaks in the distance as the first light illuminates the lake. Sip on complimentary hot drinks (coffee, tea, and cocoa) while soaking in the serenity. Your guide, expertly trained in photography, is happy to help you capture the perfect sunrise shots. Guests typically spend 1.5 to 2 hours here — plenty of time to take in the views and explore lakeside trails before the big buses arrive.

A breathtaking start to the day

5.00Our guide, Nolan, made our morning truly special. Our visit to Moraine Lake just before sunrise was spectacular. While the true highlight was the scenery, we were fortunate to enjoy Nolan’s great insights about the site, finding optimal spots for photos, and the coffee he provided while on site! Despite the large numbers that like to attend this sunrise spectacular, Nolan helped us to enjoy the intimacy of the small group and avoid the crowds. Our visit to Lake Louise was just as much fun. After offering us a brief but informative “history” walking tour, he provided great recommendations of hikes for all interests and abilities. When the entire group (by coincidence) wanted to do the same hike, he joined us, led us, and was a source of encouragement and excitement along the way. This was so worth getting up in the middle of the night for the tour! (Oh, and we saw a bear!!)
Sunrise tour is the way to go!!!

5.00My sunrise tour of Moraine Lake and Lake Louise was fantastic!!! The early AM wake-up was a bit rough but 100% worth the views and minimal crowds. My friend and I went on 6/20/26 with Bee and she was punctual, professional, laid back, and so much fun. I also appreciated her knowledge about the area and recommendations of things to see during our stay. I HIGHLY recommend this tour as opposed to trying to wing it all yourself; you won’t regret the convenience of it (AND the breakfast was unexpectedly delicious!!!).
The Best Excursion!

5.00We had the absolute best experience with Aaron from Radventures on our sunrise tour to Moraine Lake. What made an already unforgettable morning even more special was that my boyfriend—now fiancé—proposed during the tour! Aaron went above and beyond in every way. He suggested the perfect spot for the proposal, discreetly captured the entire moment with photos and videos, and helped create memories that we’ll cherish for the rest of our lives. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Beyond that, Aaron was friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about Banff National Park. He shared fascinating stories and information throughout the tour and made sure every single guest had an amazing experience. One of the most thoughtful touches was that he even took the time to handwrite individual postcards for everyone on the tour. If you’re looking for a tour guide who truly cares about his guests and goes the extra mile, we can’t recommend Aaron and Radventures highly enough. Thank you, Aaron, for helping make one of the most important days of our lives absolutely perfect!
Truly stunning place, enhanced by a great guide

5.00If like me you’re sceptical that a 4am start could be worth it, then have no doubt . Both Lakes are really special and beautiful and to see (especially)Lake Moraine in the morning sun is a magical experience Liam was an excellent guide and enhanced the whole trip ps get the food it’s great
Guided morning visit to Moraine Lake and Lake Louise

5.00An amazing chance to visit 2 beautiful Lakes with a guide. Georgia collected us from our hotel and looked after us throughout but with plenty of time to find a quiet place or have a walk. Georgia knew a lot about Moraine Lake and Lake Louise and it was so helpful to have her insights. As the icing on the cake she told us where we might get a sighting of a Grizzly bear …and we did!! Thank you to Radventure and to Georgia. A great trip!!
A truly magical & unforgettable tour

5.00So special to see the sunrise at Lake Moraine this morning. Worth the eye wateringly early start! Liam was our guide, with amazing knowledge & stories about all aspects of the National Park. As it was the first day of our holiday, he gave us a great contextual overview of the Banff area which has enriched our stay. The mountain & lake scenery was spectacular. The weather didnt allow the hoped for sunshine on the tips of the 10 peaks, but it really didn't matter, it was so beautiful anyway. The colour of both lakes was such a beautiful blue. We were also exceptionally fortunate to spot some amazing wildlife from the tour bus, the most wonderful being a grizzly bear mum & her cub. A really awesome tour, worth every penny! Thank you Liam & Radventures!
Great trip, even without blue skies!

5.00Excellent tour fitting in 3 lakes. The views are simply stunning, not only for the colour of the water but the scale of the mountains. Liam gave us information and knowledge throughout the trip. Very good tour leader (thanks for the recommendation of Beaver tails - delicious!)
Bucket list must do

5.002 years later and we are still talking about how amazing this was. We watched the sunrise on Morraine and the reflection grow on the lake. So so beautiful. Bucket list must do.
Cheers to Radventures!

5.00This tour is definitely worth paying more than the other tours. Liam was an excellent host and we appreciated the smaller group and extra perks. We highly recommend this tour and Radventures if you want a custom experience. Cheers!
