Discover Banff Tours
Discover Banff Tours is a locally based tour company operating in the heart of the Canadian Rockies. Founded in 1999 and headquartered in Banff, Alberta, the company offers small-group interpretive sightseeing tours and activity-based experiences within Banff National Park and its surrounding alpine regions.
Their guiding team comprises accredited, passionate local guides who provide commentary, point out wildlife, highlight geology, and share the natural and human history of the region. The tours are designed to be intimate and immersive rather than large-bus mass-market packages.
Activities are available for summer and winter seasons and include sightseeing drives, lake visits, hikes, wildlife spotting, and custom private tours. Booking is supported by a local team located on Banff Avenue, with phone-based booking & support.
Strengths of the company include its small-group format (which allows more flexible stops and a more personal feel), a focus on educational interpretation, and clear local expertise. On the other hand, those seeking very large tour groups or extremely budget-driven mass-bus tours may find the price higher than generic operators; also, given the regional geography, travellers still need to plan logistics such as transport from major cities (e.g., Calgary) and timing for peak-season windows.
In short, if you're visiting Banff National Park and want an experience that emphasises nature, local interpretation and smaller group size, Discover Banff Tours offers a strong choice.
