Banff & Icefield Experience from Calgary
5 Days/4 Nights
In the fall of 1883, three Canadian Pacific Railway construction workers stumbled across a cave containing hot springs on the eastern slopes of Alberta's Rocky Mountains. From that humble beginning was born Banff National Park, Canada's first national park and the world's third. Enjoy 4 nights here in Banff and explore the surrounding area. You will see spectacular vistas and ride a unique Ice Explorer while travelling one of the world's most accessible living glaciers. TOUR BIE4
