★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 85 reviews · from $86Our pick

Travel from Calgary, Canmore, or Banff along Icefields Parkway with an English-speaking guide such as Tammy, Peter, Sammy, or Grey. See Bow and Peyto lakes, visit the Columbia Icefield, and add the Ice Explorer and Skywalk from early May to mid-October.

“Very good Trip! Big Recommandation. I startet the Tour from Calgary. We were a small, but very nice little group. Grey was Driver and Guide, and he was phantastic. He told us a lot about the scenery, people, towns and the Rockies. Even though it was a long drive to the Glacier, Grey made the time in the Bus never boring. Be aware that you need to buy the ticket for the Glacier BEFORE the tour starts - its not included in the price of the tour. Take warm clothes with you, the Glacier ist cold and windy!”

Columbia Icefield Glacier Adventure Day Tour from Calgary/ Banff

3.Columbia Icefield Glacier Adventure Day Tour from Calgary/ Banff

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 64 reviews · 9 to 11 hours (approx.) · from $104

Travel the Icefields Parkway from Calgary or Banff to the Columbia Icefield, stopping at Peyto Lake, Bow Lake, and Crowfoot Glacier. The optional Ice Explorer takes you onto Athabasca Glacier. Expect a 9 to 11 hour day, a bilingual English-led guide, and no Skywalk visit.

“We enjoyed the Columbia Ice Fields and the stops to see the mountian vistas. However the experience was not worth the safety hazards we experienced by the reckless driving behavior of our driver, Zak. He ran late on our pick up and drove aggressively to make up time to meet our preplanned Ice tour. On the two lane highway he passed other vehicles in no passing zones, tailgated other vehicles within 5 to 10 meters, and exhibited aggressive behavior. We were concerned for our safety and our fellow passengers. We recommend the Columbia Ice Fields, but either drive there yourself or take another tour company besides Calgary Tours.”
