Highlights
Icefields Parkway: Journey one of the world’s most scenic mountain roads, where each curve reveals glacier-fed lakes, ancient icefields and soaring peaks. Witness the Columbia Icefield, a rare hydrological apex feeding three oceans, and travel through landscapes sculpted by time and ice.
Maligne Lake: Relax on board a narrated cruise on the serene waters of Maligne Lake. Glide past jagged mountain peaks to Spirit Island, a world-famous destination accessible only by boat.
Maligne Canyon: Join your Travel Director as you walk on the trails of Maligne Canyon, one of the most stunning gorges in the Canadian Rockies and the deepest canyon in Jasper National Park.
Athabasca Glacier: With the opportunity to get up close to nature's breathtaking power, Athabasca Falls is an experience not to be missed. Here, the Athabasca River crashes through a narrow gorge with immense force, its thundering waters and dramatic drop offering incredible photo opportunities to capture the raw beauty of the Canadian Rockies.
Banff: Visit Yoho National Park to see the Lower Spiral Tunnels—an early 20th-century engineering solution to a dangerously steep railway grade. Then view Takakkaw Falls, plunging 373 m (1,224 ft) in one of Canada’s highest cascades. The name, from Cree, means “it is magnificent”—an apt description for this thundering spectacle set amid glacier-fed peaks.

This was a very enjoyable, scenic trip. The views are spectacular! Enjoyed all the dinners and lunches we received. The motor coach bus transportation everyday was very enjoyable. The only problem was the early morning departure schedules was a little nerve racking getting everything packed to move onto the next hotel accommodations. The hotels we stayed at were very comfortable and accommodating. I really have to say Canada has very friendly and helpful people. The views are out of this world! So glad I got to visit this beautiful country! Last but not least, our tour guide *personal info removed by Feefo* and bus driver*personal info removed by Feefo* were terrific. They both were so helpful and pleasantly friendly, funny and accommodating to our needs. Would definitely recommend Insight Tours to friends and family! Keep up the good work!!!
We were able to see the beauty of the Canadian Rockies along with the historic aspects of this area. The pace of the tour was comfortable and learning about the indigenous peoples from actual persons of the First Nation. The river rafting was SO much fun and being able to walk on a glacier is a once in a lifetime experience. Also, on this particular tour, we were fortunate enough to view so many different kinds of wildlife safely from the coach.
was an amazing tour director. The views of the lakes and glaciers were beautiful. There was a good balance of scheduled activity and free time. We really liked the ability to visit and walk on a glacier.
Insight planning was spot on! We had a great tour director and bus driver that took us to beautiful places safely. Our tour director was very knowledgeable and friendly. Loved the tour.
