Discover Banff & Its Wildlife (S)

Build a connection to our World Heritage Site on our trademark sightseeing tour as you visit Banff's landmarks and historic places. Hear how the 11,000 year old human history of the Bow Valley changed when three railway workers rediscovered a hidden natural hotspring.  Visit the abandoned mining town of Bankhead, a relic of Banff's industrial past.  All the while learn about wildlife behaviour, habitat, and their winter survival adaptations as you tour around the area.  Your time will be spent enjoying the sights, taking photos, and participating in short walks to view points, on the many stops of the tour.

Banff's best tour for viewing wildlife. We see wildlife on over 95% of our tours!
