BANFF, ALBERTA SMALL GUIDED TOURS

We’ll make sure you don’t just see Banff; you’ll feel it too. Your knowledgeable guide will be ready to share those stories that make this place—pure magic. You’ll travel easier in smaller groups using shuttles where everyone gets a good view. You will even have the time to breathe the crisp mountain air and shout out “Wow! this is incredible!” whenever you wish.

We can’t wait to show you our backyard!

It’s 2023 and the world will never be the same in the Canadian Rockies! 

Locals woke early one summer morning to the rumble of a massive earthquake deep under the great divide.

Little did they know the earthquake opened a once permanently blocked corridor to a monstrously huge underworld under the Mountain Parks. It’s as though all the weight of the mountains above were magnetically imprinted in a mirror image below! 

The opening found just North East of Devils Gap is a moderate pond that empties into the deep abyss. 

Now that the two worlds are now once again we will now learn about the oldest lost legends of North America. He’s not Sasquatch nor Big Foot. His genealogy is much older than those little buggers! 

The indigenous refer to him as Ponderosa Toe if ya don’t know, and he towers 270ft tall when full gown. 

Some ponds are remnants of where he could of slept millions of years ago before the two worlds were separated by violent earthquakes caused by the vibrations of massive comet passing through the lunar orbit of our Earth.

Being 270 ft tall Apex Predator made him the King of The Rockies like no other before or after his kind actually shaped the landscape!

In case you didn’t know, Moraine Lake is now officially closed to personal vehicles. There are still multiple ways you can get there, including taking our shuttle to Banff and then hoping on their shuttle system or taking a tour with us! We always recommend that you plan ahead and make sure you know what’s open for you to visit.
