    Gonzalo the legend!

    Gonzalo was an extraordinary guide. Due to an unexpected injury during our hike, we unfortunately couldn’t continue our journey to Mt. Temple and had to return earlier than planned. We went to the bus parking lot and met Gonzalo there. We explained what had happened and asked if it would be possible to return earlier. Not only did he provide us with an earlier ride back on his bus, but he was also incredibly helpful and empathetic about our injury. He gave us plenty of information about activities we could do in the meantime, as well as advice on how to recover from the injury and prepare for our next adventure. He was an excellent example of what true hospitality, empathy, and professionalism look like. A couple of our friends asked us which company we would recommend for visiting Moraine Lake, and without hesitation, we chose ViaVia because of this amazing experience. Thank you, Gonzalo!

    Beautiful experience and great guide…Tim

    Our guide Tim was amazing and very informative. He was funny and helped us find the best spot for sunrise. At lake Louise he told us to go straight to the tea house and it paid off, we got right in and got a table with no waiting. Thanks Tim!!!

    Worth every penny

    Josh, our guide, was amazing! He was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and professional throughout the entire trip. He took us to the perfect photo spots and even took beautiful pictures for us. He made the experience fun, informative, and stress-free. I would highly recommend this tour, especially if you get Josh as your guide!

    Hassle free way to visit Moraine Lake and Lake Louise

    Via Via provided us with a great trip to both Moraine Lake and Lake Louise, allowing us to experience both of this amazing locations in a 6.5 hour trip. We were picked up directly from our Banff hotel in a comfortable mini bus. Our driver, Pieter, was helpful, friendly and provided loads of useful information on the way there and the way back (including great suggestions for other must do's in Banff). I would highly recommend Via Via for the fantastic service we received.

    Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Canmore.

    How much does Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour cost?

    +

    Prices start at $128 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Canmore usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour take?

    +

    Plan for about 8 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Canmore is not rushed.

    Is Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 16 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most popular in Canmore, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour?

    +

    No. This experience is sold on a non-refundable basis, so only book a date you are confident about. Similar experiences in the city do offer free cancellation if flexibility matters more than price.

    Is Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour?

    +

    Around 6 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Canmore can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Canmore and add a light layer if any part of the 8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Canmore within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Canmore?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Canmore experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Explore Banff, Moraine Lake, Louise, Johnston Canyon & Bow Falls, 8 Iconic Stops. 12 Comfy Seats. See Banff's Best in First Class., Moraine Lake and Lake Louise Tour from Calgary - Canmore - Banff. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Canmore?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Canmore?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour?

    +

    Included: Water refills (BRING YOUR OWN water bottle); and Snacks. Not included: Gratuities. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 66 listed pickup locations in and around Canmore. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time.

    What languages is Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +

    The operator notes: Specialized infant seats are available. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.

    What happens to Banff/Canmore: Moraine Lake & Lake Louise Combo Tour if the weather is bad?

    +

    It generally runs rain or shine, so dress for the forecast in Canmore. Standard cancellation terms apply.
