5.00This was genuinely the most incredible part of our trip to Banff! Rahul was the best tour guide. He takes amazing pictures, is very flexible for what the group wants to do, and is basically a weatherman! We had rain on and off all night and he took us to Moraine Lake and Lake Louise at the perfect times to miss the storm at both spots (meanwhile it rained the whole car ride). The sunset tours are newer to Moraine lake and only private shuttles are able to go at this time so we had the lake almost to ourselves. Such a spectacular experience and seems much better than going during the day if you want to avoid the big crowds. This is a MUST do when in Banff!
Good

5.00Evening was the perfect time to go to these lakes! Absolutely beautiful scenery, and barely any people later in the day. The sun reflecting off of the mountains was stunning! Rahul was a great guide! He knows the area well, he’s very kind and funny! He offered to take pics of our family and got great angles. He was fun with our teenage kids, which is always nice

5.00It was great to see such amazing views and to have a guide like you made it twice the fun. You were funny, matched our energy, and actually gave your personal favorites to views so we could see the lakes and mountains at the best spot. I couldn’t have asked for a better tour guide and it was fun skipping rocks, even though I don’t know how.
Amazing experience!

5.00This tour was amazing! Our tour guide, Rahul, was the best. He was extremely knowledgeable and knew the best places to take us. Lake Louise and Moraine Lake at sunset cannot be beat. No crowds and the most magnificent views. This tour was the highlight of our trip and I would highly recommend it.
The most amazing sunset tour!

5.00What a trip! The sunset tour was incredible, there were no crowds, the views were breathtaking and Rahul was the best guide ever! My family of 4 had a wonderful time in vista’s clean and new shuttle van. The ride was filled with informative details about Banff and the surrounding areas. I recommend this to anyone visiting the area.
