Itinerary

  • Lake Louise

    The Stoney Nakoda's (Native American ) called Lake Louise Ho-run-num-nay meaning "lake of the little fishes" and it was a Stoney guide who took Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) workman Tom Wilson to the site in 1882. Wilson named it Emerald Lake, but the name was changed (1884) to honour Princess Louise Caroline Alberta, fourth daughter of Queen Victoria and wife of Governor General the marquess of Lorne. At this stop you will learn the story of Tom Wilson the first guide in Banff National Park as well the member of the Steele's Scouts Commemorative Militia Cavalry who participated in bringing down Louis Riel's North-West Rebellion.

    2 hours

  • Bow Lake

    Bow Lake sits at an elevation of 1920 meters and spends most of the year locked away in ice. The lake acts as the source of the Bow River that flows through Banff, Canmore, and Calgary. When we stop at Bow Lake you will learn the story of Jimmy Simpson who was one of the most important guides, outfitter, lodge operator, hunter, naturalist and artist in the Canadian Rockies. This story is about a legendary man who ascended some of the highest peaks in the range and guided leading scientists, mountaineers, big-game hunters and world-famous artists through some of the most unimaginable scenery on earth to entertain thousands of visitors at his famous lodge at Bow Lake.

    2 hours

  • Peyto Lake

    Before named Peyto the lake was known as Doghead Lake—exactly what it resembles from any high point near its south end looking north. It was renamed for guide/outfitter, Bill Peyto, who would later become one of Canada’s first Banff National Park warden. The panoramic lookout is insanely beautiful.

    2 hours

  • Athabasca Glacier

    Deep in the Canadian Rockies, the Athabasca Glacier is one of the region’s most loved sights. This icy attraction draws people from across the country, thanks in part to its proximity to the Icefields Parkway – making it easily accessible.

Amazing! A trip you won't forget.

Published on Sep, 2024

I did a tour with Jerzy back in 2022 with my partner whilst on holiday and he was absolutely amazing, he must have made an impact as we actually moved to Canada ourselves this year! My parents came to visit this month and I knew booking a tour with Jerzy would be the best way to see everything, Jerzy was amazing again as expected. The tour fit us all perfectly, my dad was able to learn about the history of the rockies and we were all able to see some incredible places that we would never have found ourselves. The tour is always catered to the groups abilities and Jerzy makes you feel very comfortable! Overall don't hesitate and book in with him, you won't regret it!

Amazing experience!

Published on Sep, 2024

From the warm greeting we received I knew we were in for a good day. We just had no idea actually how good it was going to be. Jerzy had genuinely put so much thought into how we could experience the best that the Rockies had to offer. From spectacular views to finding quiet tranquility in areas that were otherwise busy. His stories were spell binding & I only wish he had written a book with them all in as I’d have ordered it online whilst in the car. His passion for the First Nation people was palpable. He must continue to tell their story. The nature around us was immersive. I would highly recommend a day if not more with Jerzy. An absolute gentleman who looked after us all extremely well.

Exceeded our expectations

Published on Jul, 2024

Jerzy showed us the most wonderful day. We thoroughly enjoyed Bow Lake, Peyto Lake, Saskatchewan River Crossing, Columbia Icefield, and Tangle Creek Falls. Jerzy provided us with so much interesting information about the history of the places we visited. We learned about the life of Jimmy Simpson. I did more research about this mountain man after the tour. Jerzy was flexible with us-- Focusing on the lakes and waterfalls we wanted to see most. It was a full day, so many stops, so many great pictures. Thanks to Jerzy we had the most enjoyable experiences. He is fun and very personable. If we ever go back, we will definitely book again with Jerzy. Spending the day with him was well worth the money. Could not have been better. Would love to do it again. It was great!

Authentic experience for travellers

Published on Jul, 2024

It was an amazing experience to have. We felt fully supported and we got to know a lot about the history, nature, and geography. We truly had a chance to see the heart of the Rocky Mountains, far away from crowds. We accessed views from very rare points, giving us a unique view of the national parks. We had stops along the way so we could see all the beautiful emerald and glacier lakes that are so beautiful and that much less crowded like Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. I full recommend the trip with Jurek, especially if you expect to have authentic experience, as it is very rare to meet people like him. It is a very important part of a journey to meet not only a guide, but a person who truly cares and is passionate about his job. My son who sometimes finds it difficult to interact with others was enjoying the trip a lot, which also makes me very happy.

Best way to see the area

Published on Jul, 2024

This tour is unlike any other and we highly recommend it. Jerzy weaves the history of the area with the amazing landscape to provide an unforgettable experience. The Jimmy Simpson stories and Jerzy’s passion for the area are unmatched. Great hidden hikes and suggestions for future trips, too!
