Reviews for Radventures

I had TWO amazing days with Radventures. Special shoutout to both Amelia and Ollie each day giving me my first taste of the Canadian Rockies. The wildlife, the scenery. But you guys made it so much better with your hospitality, eagerness to offer photo opportunities, knowledge and local stories.

We took the Best of Banff tour with Rae, our guide from Radventures. We had an excellent day - super comfortable van with AC, great access to the key sites (parking ourselves or public transit was never going to work for us) and great knowledge of everything Banff. It was literally the perfect day. Thank you Rae!!!! (Call your mom ;-)

We hit the wildlife jackpot on Liam's tour Banff National Park! Although there is never a guarantee to see animals in the wild, we were able to spot a black bear, a cinnamon bear, elk (with babies!), juvenile and female Big Horn Sheep, white-tailed deer, mule deer, and an osprey. Liam was friendly and knowledgeable. I can't believe he only arrived in Canada a few months ago because he knows everything!

Had an amazing day on the Best of Banff tour, visiting the beautiful Lake Louise and Moraine Lake. Our guide Ollie was very knowledgeable and gave us local stories and anecdotes throughout the journey which made the whole experience unique. We were also lucky enough to also spot some local wildlife when Ollie took us to some local gems at the end of the trip, including a mother bear and two cubs! Would fully recommend Radventures to anyone visiting Banff in the future.

This is an overdue review of our family's experience going on the Radventures full-day tour (9.5 hours total) of the Icefields Parkway, Glaciers, and Skywalk. We were accompanied by the beautiful Emma! First, we got lucky in that our small group tour ended up being a private tour for just our family -- likely due to the newness of the tour we were going on (I think Radventures had just added it). Emma is such a knowledgeable, funny, and compassionate guide. She somehow figured out each of our personalities very quickly and knew how to highlight different parts of the tour that would appeal to us individually. We enjoyed our hours-long talks with Emma as we traversed the long highways to and from the Columbia Icefields. I also want to note that Emma was so, so kind to a more senior member of our family. She encouraged this family member through more physically challenging parts of the tour and was always patient and lighthearted. As for the tour itself, I think the Icefields Parkway, Columbia Icefields, and glaciers are a quintessential part of the Banff/Jasper experience. It is otherworldly to be surrounded by glaciers and super surreal to actually walk on one! We also stopped by Peyto and Bow Lakes, which are beautiful (and more peaceful than Moraine and Louise). Also, just so no one is surprised, there is a leg of the tour at the Columbia Icefields and the Skywalk that is managed by another company (they have exclusive rights, as in you can't access this area unless it's through them). The fee for this portion of the trip is included in the Radventures tour costs. I thought Emma did a good job of being respectful of this other company but also remaining engaged/attentive with our group. I think what really defined our experience was Emma. I know this sounds like a incentivized endorsement, but it's not and our family truly feels this! We went on guided tours with other companies in other parts of Banff, and to be frank, they don't hold a candle to this one. I hope everyone is as lucky as we were to get someone who genuinely loves, respects, and knows Banff/Jasper and welcomes tourists like us to experience it through their eyes. P.S. If you are lucky enough to get Emma, ask her about her elk story!!

Great experience

Our family did 3 tours with Adventures: Best of Banff (Moraine Lake, Lake Louise) with Gini, Yoho and hidden gems with Emma, and Icefields Parkway with Bec. All 3 tours were amazing and exceeded our expectations. The views are absolutely stunning. Gini, Emma and Bec are all great tour guides, very friendly and knowledgeable. We’ve learned a lot of information and interesting facts about the places we visited. We’ve seen some wildlife too: black bears, bighorn sheep, mountain goats, and deer. I would definitely recommend Radventures!

Lubo was an excellent driver, very informative, friendly and helpful. We were lucky enough to see plenty of wildlife and enjoyed the beautiful scenery. The minibus was comfortable and clean.

A most enjoyable evening in Banff

This was an amazing trip that packed into three hours more sites and information and was more interesting than a 10 hour trip we took the previous day, with another company. It was mainly such a wonderful trip because of our guide, Sebastian, who is not only knowledgeable, but also personally very pleasant. Someone everyone would like to have as a friend. I highly recommend this trip and this tour guide so anyone spending time in this area.

We spent the day visiting Lake Louise, Moraine Lake and multiple other spots in Banff National Park.

We had an excellent day! Ollie was a great guide all day too. He was kind, fun and had so much interesting information to share throughout the day. We started out at Lake Louise, arriving early in the day which cut back some on the crowds. We hiked up to Fairview lookout which was absolutely gorgeous and the trail wasn’t busy at all. Our next stop was Moraine Lake. It’s a must see for sure, and this tour is a great way to access the area. Ollie gave us some suggestions and then we spent our time exploring, and had a picnic lunch along the lake. (Delicious sandwiches we ordered from Radventures). Ollie took the old highway on our way back to Banff which gave us the chance to see more of this area than we would’ve been able to see on our own. Once back near Banff, we also had time for Minnewanka, and Mt Norquay. We were so excited to see a black bear and a family of mountain sheep too. This tour was absolutely perfect, Ollie was top notch and we’d definitely recommend it!

A great day at the lakes

It was so nice to have the bus to ourselves-12 in our family. Bec was fantastic. She made us feel relaxed, helped us with everything -even carried our lunch cooler around

Radventures Best of Banff was RAD (as was Rae!)

We loved our tour guide Rae - she really exuded love for Banff and we felt it. She was very knowledgeable as well. She always helped us get the best photos and was alway thinking of our needs. We never would have been able to make it to Lakes Moraine and Louise without Radventures. The clean comfortable minibus had AC and cold water for us, as well as USB ports for charging our phones. We had a perfect day! (Call your mom ;-)

Our experience with Taylor and Radventures was absolutely amazing! If it’s your first time visiting Banff, we highly recommend booking with them. The instructors were fun and informative also incredibly caring and attentive throughout the whole experience. Can’t wait for the next time!

(Translated by Google) Yesterday we took Ollie's tour to Lake Louise, Lake Moraine, and the Secrets of Banff. It was amazing! Ollie is a very knowledgeable tour guide, and a very friendly man, too. He walked with us around Lake Louise and the Rockpile in Lake Moraine. He was full of stories along the way. We also saw a grizzly bear, two black bears, one with two cubs, deer, sheep, and several birds. Definitely worth it! (Original) Gisteren hebben we met Ollie de tour naar Lake Louise, Lake Moraine en de geheimen van Banff gedaan. Het was geweldig! Ollie is een zeer deskundige tourguide, en bovendien een hele vriendelijke man. Hij liep met ons mee rond Lake Louise en de Rockpile in Lake Moraine. Onderweg wist hij veel te vertellen. En we hebben een grizzlybeer, twee zwarte beren waarvan een met twee welpen, herten, schapen en verschillende vogels gezien. Echt de moeite waard!

Had an excellent day with Tyler for the Lake Moraine sunrise and Lake Louise hike. He was punctual, knowledgeable of the area, and personable. He carried on conversations with our entire family, including our twin 13-year olds. He was very pleasant and made our tour a memorable one. Thanks to Radventures and Tyler for making a tour a winner and our time in Banff so enjoyable!

A A Ron was great! A good sense of humour and very knowledgeable about the local area. He bent over backwards to show us the sights and find wildlife. Great Job!

Great time, learned a bunch we didn’t know, saw a bear and some sheep, and just a great time overall. And our group mates from Switzerland were great too.

Aanrader voor de Canada ontdekkers !!

We zijn met een super vriendelijke reis begeleider, zijn naam was Ollie, een onvergetelijke dag tegemoet gereden. We hebben een grizzlybeer, en twee zwarte beren gezien waarvan een met twee baby beren.Berg geiten, enkele elk’s en veel klein wild zoals squirels.We zijn op meerdere plaatsen gestopt voor een onvergetelijke ervaring en uitzicht.Deze trip is de kroon op onze reis.We zijn vervoert in een kleine toch ruime bus met airco.Door het kleine reisgezelschap (max 12) krijg je ook persoonlijke aandacht en tips waar je op dient te letten.Er is tijd genoeg om iedere plek persoonlijk te bekijken zonder dat je aan de groep moet blijven plakken. Probeer als gids Ollie te strikken, hij is grappig en verteld onderweg heel veel over de omgeving. AANRADER !!

Moraine & Louise

Clem was an excellent tour guide. We had a wonderful time. I’ll never forget the feeling of seeing Moraine Lake for first time. Clem knew all the spots to hit for best views, even caught the train at Morand Curve. So special!
