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.

GORGEOUS and unforgettable! This trip was perfectly timed, though you could just sit and stare at the beautiful scenery all day and not tire of it. Rae did a great job of respecting our exhaustion levels and yet provided lots of great info!

We had the privilege of going on the sunrise tour this morning with Emma and I cannot recommend it enough. She was very informative, friendly, and did a great job. It was a little cloudy but the views were still incredible. 10/10 tour but 11/10 guide.
