Banff Canoe Club

Went kayaking along the river and it was such an incredible adventure! The views were breathtaking, and paddling through the peaceful stretches of water felt like the perfect mix of calm and excitement. Booking was quick and hassle-free, and they offer everything from kayaks to canoes depending on how you want to explore. I went for the one-hour kayak, and it was the perfect way to get out on the water and take in the scenery. Easy to find, fun from start to finish… definitely an experience I’d recommend!

Booking was easy and quick. We booked an 2 hour kayak experience as a family of 4 from the U.K. There were two other people on our tour which made for a small group which was perfect. We got to kayak down the Bow River and see two lakes. Our guide Amelia was fantastic. She had lots of local knowledge and was very helpful. A highlight of our trip to Canada. Would definitely recommend.

We had a great time on our canoe tour in Banff! The guides were friendly and helpful. Shout out to Bree! The trip was a lovely, peaceful way to take in the beauty of the area. It was awesome that even young kids could do the activity (2-5 are free). Our 4, 5, and 8 year olds had a great time. The trip does start with paddling up river. The amount of effort you put in is up to you but it does impact how much of the river you see. They also offer canoe rentals for self guided tours that were very reasonably priced. The canoe club is an easy walk from the free parking at the train station.

Most reasonably priced in the Banff area. Staff super friendly and Bow River was absolutely beautiful with great views. We even saw elk (you won’t see that at Lake Louise or Moraine Lake while on water 😍)!!!

Walk in rental of a canoe boat for three. Easy and convenient. Paddling on the Bow river and creek was very relaxing and beautiful. We saw some ducks under the bridge.

Abby was a fabulous guide for our kayak tour, the views were stunning and we ventured over a beaver dam to get to Vermillion Lakes. Her knowledge of the surroundings added to our experience and was way better than doing it on our own. So much fun!! Highly Recommend.

Very safe, crew is very friendly, well organized and Narrated. BANFF IS BEAUTIFUL amazing breath taking view of the mountains, river and canoeing was about 2 hours. The only thing is we never saw any wild life. Not even a beaver. I would do it again if it wasn't so pricey.

No waiting when I got there around 6:00pm. Especially thanks to the very friendly and helpful staff. My son was so scared but they encouraged him to get on the boat. We really had a great time!
