Wildlife Tours in Banff National Park

On our wildlife watching tours, there’s no knowing what animals you might end up spotting. But our eagle-eyed guides know the top places to visit for the best chances of a sighting. On our popular Evening Wildlife Safari, keep your eyes peeled for animals such as elk, bears, bighorn sheep, deer and coyotes. Or to guarantee seeing a bear, join our Discover Grizzly Bears Tour and meet Boo – an orphaned bear who lives and plays in the world’s largest enclosed and protected grizzly bear habitat.

Learn about wolfdogs and meet these amazing animals up close at the Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary. This not-for-profit organization offers a variety of tours to educate the public on wolfdogs and raise awareness regarding wolf conservation.
