Overview

From Marilyn Monroe to Teddy the tourist-greeting bear, Banff has played host to legends of all stripes and species over the years. In this 90-minute adventure around Banff and through the decades, you’ll hear the true tales of unbelievable characters who helped make our mountain town the world-class destination it is today.

Along the way, expect awe-inspiring sights aboard our open-air, vintage-inspired vehicle enroute to stops at Surprise Corner, Vermilion Viewpoint, Tunnel Mountain and Mount Norquay Viewpoint. Bring your camera for alpine photo-ops and kick back as our guides regale you with the stories of Banff’s legendary past.
