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.

5.00The tour with Flossie was great. She was super knowledgeable about the area with lots of facts and tips to share. I definitely think the tour was worth it since both lakes get crowded quickly. We got to Moraine Lake before sunrise, Flossie gave us blankets (dress warmly, it's chilly) and cocoa or coffee, then we could settle in or walk around and wait for the sun to come up. Then we headed to grab a quick lunch before heading to Lake Loraine. Although the tour was expensive, I think it was worth it to just get on the little bus and not have to think about where to go or what to do. Tips are appreciated and folks tipped in cash, but I was able to tip online, so look out for an email after the trip if you didn't have cash.

5.0010/10 would recommend this tour to anyone. We lucked out with great weather and had an incredible sunrise at Moraine Lake. We had enough time at Lake Louise to hike to the Fairview lookout as well as do some of the lake shore trail. Our guide, Ollie, hiked with us and was incredibly personable and informative. He made it a great tour!
