What To Expect

Banff National Park

There’s a quiet kind of magic in traveling through Banff National Park at dawn — when the world is still, and the mountains seem to whisper their ancient secrets. As you wind through towering pines and beneath starlit peaks, the landscape slowly awakens around you. Mist rises from hidden valleys, the first light brushes the mountaintops, and every curve in the road feels like a secret waiting to be discovered. It’s a journey made for quiet reflection, deep connection, and those rare moments when nature and romance intertwine — where even the drive becomes part of the dream.

Wow, what a surreal and magical experience to easily access and be immersed in such natural beauty, guided by the amazing El. To understand how gorgeous it is you truly need to see it for yourself. El made our experience with Mountain Explorer one to remember, endless insider knowledge, amazing facts and killer picture spot recommendations.
Amazing!

We stayed in Canmore and decided to do Lake Moraine sunrise tour. We were lucky to find Mountain explorer company. They picked us up from our hotel. They provided us blankets, seat cushions and warm drinks on a cold morning. Our guide, Anthony, was very knowledgeable, friendly, courteous and a genuinely kind person. One of the best tour guides we’ve ever had. Would highly recommend this company.

He made us feel welcome, offered helpful tips for photography, and shared fascinating facts about the area—all while keeping the ride smooth and comfortable. Highly recommended for your trip to Moraine Lake.
