Banff Bear Travel - Calgary, Alberta

We had a great time with Banff Bear! We joined the lakes tour and the ice field tour in early September. Both tours were in small group and we all enjoyed the trip!

Our tour guide Travis is knowledgeable and he always tried his best to share what he knows about Banff and the wildlife. He was also very helpful throughout the tours. Everything was being well taken care of, transport, photo taking and etc.

Highly recommend the lakes tour and the ice field tour. Both tours have a very high CP value, the tours are packed with different spots but not rushed. We were given sufficient time at each spots to look around and take photos.

Overall, we had a wonderful time in Banff and the national parks!

I organised the tour with Banff Bear Travel just two days before our arrival in Banff. The guide, Travis was incredibly accommodating and responsive from the get-go. He was patient over text, took the time to understand what our group wanted.

Travis knew all the right spots, from clean toilets to the best areas for wildlife sightings. When we mentioned wanting to see animals, he knew *exactly* where to take us.

What makes Banff Bear Travel, Travis stand out is how knowledgeable he is, perfect for people who don’t have time to do deep research. You can just show up and trust that he’s got it covered. Super friendly, easy to get along with, and on top of that, he has amazing photography skills. We’ve got some great shots to remember the trip by.

Highly recommend Banff Bear Travel if you’re headed to Banff and want a fun, hassle-free experience with a guide who really knows his stuff!

I recently joined the Moraine lake sunrise tour with Banff Bear Travel and it was a wonderful experience. I highly recommend to everyone visiting Banff!

Our guide, Travis, was super funny and knowledgeable. He shared lots of fun facts and stories about the national park and its wildlife, which made the whole tour so much fun. I will say making an early morning wake-up is definitely worth it.

The views of Moraine Lake and Lake Louise were absolutely stunning and unforgettable. I also really appreciated how smoothly everything was organised, especially since we joined the tour at the very last minute.

Highly recommended for this tour. The tour guide is fun and experienced. He has conducted a lot of research on the historical and environmental aspects of each itinerary. He knows where to take good photos, and he also brings his own camera to help each of us take mannnnnny photos.
He also shows us some additional spots that are not included in the schedule. He is truly a nice guide, and I will join the tour again if I go to Banff next time.
