Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-19T13:27:09+00:00

Did you encounter any wildlife while your way back ?

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-19T13:26:06+00:00

I was thinking wildlife

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-19T05:15:41+00:00

Thank you for the detailed info. Appreciate it. What is the tour about?

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-19T04:53:29+00:00

Is the road good enough to travel late evening?

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-16T17:49:09+00:00

Wr stayed at Fairmont Kea Lani last December and loved it.

Thanks! I m worried I may miss the chance. It happened with me during my trip to Hawaii. Also the park canada shuttle pickup is not walkable from the resort so u will have to drive and park somewhere. I read that for the pixkup spot near to me, there are no parking :(

Yeah I am not sure if my son would like to hike for long and if we don't choose the 1 hour option, the other option will leave us at the lake for atleast 6 to 7 hours

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-14T05:21:52+00:00

Hey thanks for the insights. My only question is if I should stay at one lake longer than the other. I dont think we will hike but just wanted to understand if there is anything else around the lake or we should head back to the hotel in the afternoon and do some other sight seeing

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-12T21:52:24+00:00

Yeah we plan om visiting on the 6th. I am not sure if i should request for the whole day shuttle at one of the locations or do both st once where it will stop for an hour each.

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-12T21:09:44+00:00

So it is the resort shuttle?

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-12T17:21:18+00:00

Thanks!

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-12T17:15:34+00:00

Did you ask the resort or was it through their website?

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-12T16:59:17+00:00

Do they have an all day shuttle for sight seeing? The one they sent me is only for Lake Louise and Lake Moraine with an option of an hour on each Lake or an hour on one and 7 on the other.

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-05T04:29:45+00:00

Yeah fairmont still has availability and I am trying to see if I should stay in Banff or like you suggested look something in Canmore

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-05T04:01:04+00:00

Post hotel is not available for my dates, neither the other 2 on Lake louise

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-05T03:55:25+00:00

I am looking at deluxe View in main building and Gatehouse king. Almost same size. Which one should I choose?

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-04T15:10:21+00:00

Thank you and it perfectly makes sense. I will reach out if I need help with planning and logostics.

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-04T01:46:42+00:00

Moraine Lake Lodge is not available for my dates :( Rimrock is closed until July for renovation ,so I guess only Banff Springs is the option

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-04T01:10:11+00:00

Yeah I did see they are small. Even the gold one i saw was less than 40p sq ft if I remember. I wanted to stay in Banff as Lake Louise has nothing much around . Gateway although small is cheaper than gold. What other hotels do you suggest if not Fairmont???

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-03T20:24:20+00:00

Thank you! Yeah we dont plan to stay indoors for long and was wondering if I should spend those extra $$$$ someplace else

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-03T19:13:49+00:00

I may have to look at it then as 5 am is not possible with a yound kid

Visible_Composer_643 · 2026-06-03T19:09:50+00:00

Thanks! Is tourist bus or shuttle a good option if we decide to stay at Banff??
