Showed us the best spots to see the sunrise at Lake Morraine and told us which routes to go for the best views of Lake Louise. Telling us which routes and areas aren’t as crowded to get the best pics. I would highly recommend at peak season since the shuttle bus booking is insanely hard to book. The cost is low but the gain with great views and memories is priceless.”

11.Sunset at Moraine Lake & Stargazing Tour from Canmore/Banff

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 95 reviews · 8 hours (approx.) · from $97

Ride from Canmore or Banff to Moraine Lake with a guide such as Tobias, Laura, or Sebastian. Stop at Morant’s Curve, watch sunset from the rockpile, then use binoculars and telescopes for stargazing. Expect a late, chilly evening, a short rocky climb, and up to 13 people.

“Our guide Tobias was excellent and really wanted everyone to be comfortable. The tour plan is good, but it all depends on the weather. We had a little rain to dampen our trip, and the clouds didn't allow much star-gazing, but seeing Lake Morraine was a treat. There isn't much walking; just a lot of steps to get up to the lake. Overall, our experience was a little dampened, but Tobias helped us make the best of it.”
