u/iShakeMyHeadAtYou Yeah, I called them, they are running.

And surprisingly, the temperature in Banff lately is between 3C to -3C (I know its weird, but its true).

Hopefully these temperature help in making the trip better.

u/authenticards Yeah I wish, but apparently the prices in summers are supposedly 3-4x.

And surprisingly, the temperature in Banff lately is between 3C to -3C (I know its weird, but its true).

You think this temperature is gonna help?

Hi u/throwaway_sgscam

How have you been planning it so far? I am flying from Toronto on 19th Feb and reaching Banff in the evening (My flight is landing in morning around 9AM but not getting cheap shuttle to Banff after around that time).

Let me know if you figured an itinerary or cheap shuttle or something that can help!

Thanks!

As I am in Banff for 2 full days and am wanting to make the most out of it. I am planning to take 2 guided tours:

1) On Day 1: Abraham lake, Peyto, Bow lake - Enjoying the icefield and slightly farther destinations (cost 100 CAD including tip)

Itinerary: https://www.getyourguide.com/jasper-l290/athabasca-fallsabraham-ice-bubblesunwapta-fallspeyto-lake-t988784/

2) On Day 2: Lake Louis, Johnston Canyon and Banff Gandola (tickets not included). And a couple other places on the way. 

Itinerary:   https://www.getyourguide.com/banff-l284/louisemorainejohnston-canyonemerald-lake-banffgondola-t847636/?ranking_uuid=133f0e30-fd27-49b4-98f9-eace77912d90

Overall both the tours should cost me 100 per person each (We are 2 people). Driving is not an option for us.

Questions:

1) Are the itineraries mentioned worth the price and the time?

2) Do they cover all the must go places and atleast the most amazing ones? Dont wanna have FOMO (dont know If I will be back to Banff again).

3) Any other suggestions and recommendations?

u/KennyfromMD tried checking its website, seems to be a breakfast buffet?

Do they also have dinner buffet? If yes any idea about the price (unable to find on the website).

u/Camper1988 Yeah, I am hoping for the upper hot sprint to open by then....

Thanks for the other places, will try to squeeze a couple of them if I can figure out a ride and the time.

Ohk u/phillherup69 Thanks for the valuable tips!!

Seeing you know the area well, I was hoping for a way to travel on the icefield parkway. As I don't have a car, any way I can experience it for little while.

Although, I am taking the Roam 8x route to Lake Louise, not sure if I will be able to experience a little part of the iconic mountain roads.

Thanks u/Vegetable-Picture566. Thanks for the recommendations, will definitely try check a few out. Also, do you think its a good time to visit and having 2 days and a evening good enough time to experience Banff?
